PC Titan V performs the same as a 2080ti in raytracing mode, does not have TR cores!

Oh my Nvidia, if true,  this might be a new low for you guys, and that is saying something! Intel (?!) deliver us from the other giant asshole.

Quite interesting if it's true. However, that doesn't necessarily mean the RT cores are irrelevant. Titan V is close to 3x the cost of a 2080Ti. The old architecture may not scale nor be affordable even compared with the first version of this new architecture.

   I was ever so close to building the "new gaming PC" before the Fire hit us in California! I'll never be able to do a card like the Titan V, but I was SOLD on the 2080Ti and still want one so badly. I know now I'll likely have to wait till Next year, yes another whole year before I can even start to part a new build. I'll be a Laptop gamer for and PC user for the near future. That said, wow reading about the power of some of these "BEAST" cards is fun stuff. Right now a 2080Ti is going for around 1200-1400 that just isn't me. Now 900 and I might just start pricing that 8700k and Ram right away . . .lol 

 

   Good new is the 3080Ti should be around 1100'ish at launch if I jump on the preorders? there only say one year away too right?

I may upgrade this year depending on how good Navi aftermarket cards are compared to my Vega 64. You can have my Vega if you want it assuming I upgrade. Just warning it is a power hog needs 2 8 pin connectors. I don't expect Navi cards to come out until Q3 though so it will be a bit.

Amazing offer, I haven't used anything other that Nvidia in 15 years. I'll be keeping tabs on you kind sir . . . lol Just looked up your card, looks to be far better than the 980Ti rig I was using until the fire. I do want something that will be future proof aka 4k gaming. That said, I have nothing right now, and that card could really speed up a build this year. I do not have cash to through at a Gaming rig  probably even this year.  Thank you so much. So many of you guys, great cummunity we have here for sure!

This sounds like it's more disappointing for people who have a Titan V rather than a 2080ti.

This definitely warrants further investigation and a side-by-side comparison, with test parameters strictly controlled and high, medium, low performance compared as well.
