No, DLSS3 needs optical flow hardware which Ampere chips don't have.

A few weeks to a month I would imagine. No guarantees of course.
I don't see the same quantity of folks running out to get these like the 3000 series at launch.
All smells a bit like a repeat of Pascal to Turing here, except claimed performance increases are nicer.

Optical flow hardware lmfao. After seeing how close AMD’s come without Tensor Cores I smell bullshit.

And this is why I haven't bought an upgrade since the 1080 GTX. Get fucked, nvidia. Get fucked.

Knowing there will be chiplet design on AMD i'm crossing my fingers.

@ people complaining about the price of graphics cards. It's not water or electricity. Don't like it, don't buy it.

It was also crazy when they made dlss exclusive to turing and upwards.. whereas fsr2 today is basically the same and works on my GTX 970

It's not just pricing. Aren't you least bit annoyed that your brand new 3090 which you spent a year trying to get is being made obsolete in a couple months time? Don't be a corporate shill please.

3090 is two years old....this is how its always been, you dont buy this kind of tech not knowing it will be superseeded in a couple of years.

True. And these cards will just be playing PS5/XSX games for the next 3-4 years, at least.

Don't pass gaas, it is your Destiny!
Don’t buy top of the line hardware if that’s how you feel. Played yourself really.

1. It's been 2 years
2. It's called progress
3090 is not obsolete. You can still use it for years and years. It will last you this entire console generation and then some. What you're experiencing is fear of missing out on the best of the best.
Every company exists to make profit. It's not a charity, damn it.

What’s the white one?
NO way any of these cards are fitting in my current case...
damn
I managed to squeeze in a 3070Ti Suprim X in my case, 33.5cm. What size are we talking about for the 4090?

that TUF gaming looks decent. might go for one of those.
I need to see where AIBs price these.
tuf WAS msrp last time and performed really, really well.

I agree to some extent, but such is the nature of progress and competition. We can say this about many products, especially phones.
The pricing is shit, although 4090 is not as bad but that 4080.....yikes.
A card that costs like a full PC 
I guess the marketing strategy is that they didn't want to delay the launch because they don't want the competition to introduce something new before them but at the same time the warehouses are full of the old cards, so until those are phased out the new cards will be priced astronomically to rip off early adopters.

You have to be "Apple fan" levels of stupid if you think in giving in on those prices

3090 Strix?
31.85cm if my Google skills aren’t failing me. Then the 4090 looks to be a beast, must be around 35cm

Let me guess; they’re going to roll the 4070 out at $599.
Nvidia can fuck right off. They’ve been jacking up the prices at every tier. A mortgage payment for a GPU. It’s beyond stupid.

I feel like gaming hardware is progressing but humans ability to develop more advanced games is becoming the bottleneck.

For real. For the price they want for the actual 4080 (because the 12 GB version is a fucking rebranded 4070) I’d rather spend a little bit more and get the 90

The 12 GB 4080 is cheaper than the iPhone 14 pro max.
I'll take the GPU any day of the week.

Worse they are charging £949 for a 4070 class card. The actual 4080 is £1269. And thats for FE models.
names are for friends

I'm very sceptical of DFs Nvidia coverage given how many sponsored pieces they've done for them. Comparing framerate percentage of 3090 Ti against 4090 with frame interpolation seems disingenuous.

Yea, so their strategy actually works

They aren't even subtle about being PR mouthpieces anymore.
I'll wait for reviews from the likes of gamers nexus. Even hardware unboxed have more credence than these guys when it comes to PC benchmarking.

Honestly interested in sales of those things.
I got a 3080 and don't plan changing till 5XXX at least, perhaps even 6XXX Series.
Prices are Insane in those times of recession, power draw also mind boggling high.
Especially in Europe, prices are climbing to new highs day after day, inflation hitting hard and then those cards are not only more expensive but also more power hungry.
Weirdly, this kinda contradicts his statement of his vision that GPUs "inch towards prices of consoles".
I am sure NVIDIA will still sell a shitload of those cards, but I honestly doubt they will make the big buck they think they'll do with current situation + mining being dead.

Lmao get fucked Nvidia.
They're pricing it like this, so that there is downward pressure on the RTX3000 series cards, so they can clear those channels.
AIB's are going to get fucked by this move. Early adopters of Lovelace are also going to get fucked.
If you buy a RTX 4000 series card now, enjoy the FOMO in 6 months after RDNA3 launches and Nvidia slash prices.

What do you consider to be trash? I think 60-90 fps at 1440p for a single player game is decent. It doesn't handle Raytracing very well true, but in the minute to minute play, I'm not really paying much attention to that. The runs smooth to me. If the game was new and I just had to have the best performance available maybe I could see a justification. However, no shot I justify $900 -$1200 to achieve that. Price to performance and applicability just doesn't cut it for me.
If the price for the 16 gb 4080 was say....I dunno $799...I'd probably bite.

If you actually go ahead and pay more, you and everyone else like you, are the reason prices will keep creeping ever upwards and upwards.

Whats the recommended power supply on these? Is there hardware built in to prevent GPU sag?

Still waiting to see if 4070 is a thing and if there is a Ti \ Super version.

So you're saying that an RTX 4060 won't have DLSS3? Somehow i don't believe that. Do you have proof?

Thankfully I have a 3080 so I don't have the need to be irresponsible with my money.
