A minute of silence for those who bought a 2080Ti this year.

[fishtheperson]

$500 3070 can beat 2080ti

Yeah i would say its worth the wait

[munk_ken]

AMD: *Uppercuts Intel*
Intel: *Twitching on the ground*
Nvidia: *Looks at AMD, pumps shotgun*

[kleiner]

i love how the used market is now flushed with 2080ti `s trying to sell them at full price xDD

"most people upgrade every 2 years"

*looks at my 760"
sure sure

[Spamsgood]

"is it safe to upgrade?"

*looks at overheating 980ti*

"I guess its time"

[reguslav]

Actually release of 30 series is like first positive news of 2020!

As a developer myself, the low adoption rate of ray tracing is due to the fact that the current/first generation of RTX isn't capable of pushing the rays that we want to really impress with real time ray tracing. Titles that do use it right now do so only in limited/superfluous aspects, like providing *only* ray traced reflections on an otherwise completely non-ray traced game. It's mostly been something AAAs can tack on to ride on the RTX marketing buzz, but that will change.

Ray traced global illumination is much computationally harder to do without noise, and I know myself and others have been waiting until we're "deeper" into the technology time line so that we can add these sorts of features and have them actually usable by most people before it will be worth the effort.

With the 3000 series, I plan on getting a 3070 and finally doing some "real" ray tracing development, hopefully a game designed from the bottom up to at least incorporate high quality real time ray traced GI. That's my main concern because it has the biggest effect on the overall look of environments (watching light flood into a room through a window is really beautiful). Ray traced reflections are nice, but local reflections have filled that spot very well in the past couple years, so it hasn't been a major selling point for me yet as a developer.

So within the next 5 years, at least from small developers like me, expect to see more "from the ground up" ray traced games that were developed with ray tracing in mind as a core feature now that it will become affordable AND powerful (and engines like Unity are starting to get the bugs worked out in their DXR solutions).

Jay: Are you excited... are you disappointed?
Me: I'm broke, Jay.

“People with XX80 series cards upgrade every generation because they have money”

Me, broke, with a GTX 1080

[hoangsolo]

Ohhhh 1080Ti, it's an end to a beautiful friendship

[cheri]

Cpus: amd beats intel for less price
Gpu's: nvidia beats nvidia for less price

[Heath-]

I ignored all the "Dont build a new PC right now" videos back in April & now I'm regretting it.

[vakantgaming]

Jay: "People usually upgrade there GPU every two years"
Me: *watching this vid on an amd hd 7570 on i5-3470.*

[MarvRetro]

looks like my 1080ti will finally be upgraded. But i will wait for Jayz benchmarks first :)

[flowerthencrranger]

Me looking to my 960: Hey, it has been a heck of a ride...

[UltraTempo_]

*me watching nvidia event*
GTX1070:" my time has come right?"
ME:" yes, yes its time"

[Revan_even]

JayZ: "If you have a 1080, the 3070 is like, obviously the card for you."
Me: _DROOLS_
My 1080: _Sweats from fear_

"most people upgrade every 2 years"
me sitting here with components all from 6 years ago

[mrhappyman]

Here I was waiting for the 3000-serie to come out so I could "steal" a 2070/2080 card. Oh boy Im skipping the entire 2000 lineup and heads straight to 3070
