8K gaming is here

Sony's gotta get people to replace those obsolete 4K TVs somehow. Lol

If you want to throw in the price of a TV then don't forget to throw in the price of your overpriced baby sized monitors and a desk.

Consoles are much cheaper and offer better bang for buck performance than PCs.

No he actually has one and shows what it performs like. But it's only % differences not actual frame times.

The difference between consoles and PC is that if you've got money the money, it's actually possible, lol.

@Pedro that's the gist of it lol

PHEW

The piggy backers can breathe a sigh of relief HaH

Though the cheaper of the cards looks interesting....what sort of price is a gaming pc with that?

Interesting that they are using percentages and not framerate. I wonder if Nvidia has DLSS on by default in hardware?🤔

More like Ngridia, am I right? Anyone high five?

Rtx 390 vs rtx 380

36TF vs 30 TF

1500 usd vs 700 usd

So basically for 17 % of more performance you pay more than twice of an original price 700usd 🥶

Will it drive you mad that my monitor is actually 65" 4K/120Hz TV that cost ~2500 Euro?

Look we get it, you are just broke and jealous and wish you had a high-end PC. Crying on the internet won't get you one, though.

$700-800 has been the sweet spot bang-for-your-buck when it comes to building a gaming PC; for about a decade now. I don't expect that to change.

Yeah console devs are slaves to the platform holders who are slaves to marketing.

And screenshots sell more than moving pictures.

And yet you're still port begging because PC has very few games that can take advantage of high end hardware.

Are you actually excited for another AssCreed and Watch Dogs? Of course you're not. You wish you had Ghost of Tsushima on your PC instead. Maybe in 5 years bud. Until then keep praying GG decides to fix that broken version of HZD.

I'm guessing the 14GB of faster GDDR6X has a lot to do with the price bump, that and it's the untouchable king of the GPU market once it releases.

Don't have to port beg anymore, Sony and MS are willingly putting their exclusives on PC now. Enjoy your budget CP77 expirence.

@pyro1245:

Yea I doubt a 3070 gaming pc will be as low as 600 Dollars £480

Serious x would be ditched if that was the case....wonder if DF will do a console v 3070 comparison...

35.7 tflops for the 3090

29.8 tflops for the 3080

Next gen consoles just got slam dunked on.

I need one of these (not really but I'm buying a 3080 anyway).

The 3070 beats a 2080ti according to Nvidia, so it's well beyond the consoles. The 3060 will be the real console comparison.

I said $700-800 is the peak of the performance/dollar curve for a gaming PC.

You'll have a great 60fps+ experience with med-high settings and you wont have to let console marketing dictate how you experience you games.

Was not comparing to consoles nor did I say anything about $600. The only people who care about matching the shitty performance of console to PC for the same price are console fanboys. Always has been.

Why are you so focused on the 3070, though? It's safe bet that the upcoming midrange RTX 3060 will outperform it. Now look up the prices of midrange parts when AMD's Zen 3 releases in Q4, and you can build a ~800€ PC, which will not just give you better performance, free online and much better deals on games, but also open a way to huge ass library of games, free giveaways, modding...

I guess he didn't get the memo saying Sony is approaching the PC market:

Some people just can't accept their plastic toys are DOA, huh?

Yeah these numbers are way better than the rumor mill was saying.

@WESTBLADE85:

Because there is no 3060 in the op hah

I’ll compare when everything is ‘out there’

But it will be a pre build if I ditched the SXand they don’t come cheap... this build your own it’s a Doddle seems like a right f#%k on hah

@R4gn4r0k: I can't even wrap my head around the gains. I don't think we've seen something like this since the jump from PS1 to ps2 days. Biggest gpu generation leap ever maybe?

@pyro1245:

So my original question stands...how much do people think a 3070 gaming pc will cost

Yeah, all thanks to that 7nm. I can't wait to see RDNA2 too.

And rumors were saying that Nvidia cards would be on 8nm.

@fedor:

Is that card(3060) set to release this year?

@R4gn4r0k for the OP

Rumor is Nov. Probably true, Nvidia will want time for people to convince themselves to spend more on the high end rather than less on the mid market.

If you can wait for Ti because I have a hunch that 3090 is a replacement for Titan. Might be worth it because we may also get new HDMI2.1 TVs from Samsung.

Soooo, I can run this card on a 650w, right? If not, I'll just get a new PSU, no big deal.

3080 is a sweet spot for me. 700usd is reasonable for 30TF

The 3080? Probably cutting it a little close but I'd wager it will be fine.

I'm going to wait.

I think I might buy a monitor (one of those ultra-wide thingamajigs) that would need the card before I buy the card, and those monitors cost like 1200 dollars themselves lol.

Either way I won't be upgrading for at least a year, just bought a 2080 early this year and I had a 980 before that which was still good.

And those are AMD TFLOPs not Nvidia's. So, in reality the leap is even higher.

@R4gn4r0k: Same! I think Nvidia priced their 3080 at 700 because they know something about what AMD has. It's all very exciting.

Pre-built? Yuck. Hope you've got a tech-savvy friend who can do that properly and not going with the build of nightmares from retail.

I can't decipher what you said (bold/highlighted text), lol. Can to translate it?

Good price, but I still can't imagine what I'd even play on it. Might just keep my 1070 and wait for the 4070. Not sure right now. Gaming is boring.

Yeah same here. Can't quite justify that 3090 price.

Yeah that really is some crazy shit with the 3070. Game over for AMD and next gen consoles before the gen even starts. Really pleased about those prices.

that right their. even current getting release cards cant push native 4k or 8k.

It's 8k capable at 60 fps with DLSS is what they said. Of course, this only applies to some games, so it's not overall 8k capable, but it is for some games.

Yeah... The extra video memory is nice, but probably a bit overkill unless you have other needs for the card other than gaming.

How much is a 3070 lol?

Maybe about $400, plus the price of a 3070.

Let's see.... 3070 TDP is about 220W. 16GB of RAM and at least a 500GB NVMe SSD....

That's one heck of a PC. I think if you are just aiming for 60fps you could wait for a 3060. If you have a really nice WQHD, high refresh rate monitor the 3070 is probably a good choice.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 3.4 GHz 6-Core Processor ($139.99 @ Newegg)

Operating System: Windows 10 Pro OEM (<$5.00 @ Ebay - totally legit, just OEM so you need a new one if you switch motherboards)

Total: $412.35

I am settling for the 3080. 3090 price is just too ridiculous. I was already pushing my comfort zone when I bought the 2080 Ti. I recently sold the 2080 Ti and it will cover the cost of the 3080 and I will still have money left over. So, I am getting more performance and HDMI 2.1 for no additional money. :)

@pyro1245:

Cheers

I am in the market for a new tv as my Samsung ain’t cutting the 2.1 hdmi mustard...though would I be right in thinking a tv with a 100/120 htz screen is capable of 1440-120fps if it has Variable refresh rate

Yeah 2080ti prices aren't serious anymore. The 3090 price even less so. These are the pricerange where they just make a ton of profit on, and only targeted at the richest... Or review sites who want to benchmark, lmao

@WESTBLADE85:

A few of the lads I drink with Are tefal heads and build PC’s So a mates rates option would be there hah

A $500 3070 outperforms a $1200 2080 ti. Consoles just got wrecked hard

How much did you get for the ti? I'm gonna fob my 2080, so i'm hoping I can get ~$400CAD. Hopefully someone a little more unwitting, as the 3070 will stonk it, but at twice the price.

But you are gonna sell your card after you get the new one, right?

Or are you thinking of selling it right now?
