Hope this means they're seeing the negative reactions to the rumored prices and are going lower.

I mean, it wouldn't be that shocking..

Titan xp is 1200 and the 1080ti fe is 700..so if you go with the last round of pricing those would slot into where those 2 models used to be.

I could see the 1080ti going to 500, and then the 1080 or the 1070ti staying at 450 and the rest of the lineup swapping when those come out (2070 for 400, 2060 for 300)

I guess we'll see very soon.

Anyway no 2070 in sight unless they're splitting up the GTX and RTX versions and a 2070 is a GTX

Not-Ti it is then for me.

Rumor is that if you already have a Ti than the RTX 2080 isn't a reasonable upgrade. If you have a 1070/1080 than it might be viable. We won't truly know until benchmarks though.

That's what the speculation is with them releasing both the 2080 and 2080 Ti variants at the same time.

Looks like not a FE card in sight. Lends credence to the rumors that the FEs will only be in the Nvidia store this time, and no other vendors will be required to build em.

That's hilarious that newegg was like, welp 12 on the dot, annnddd go.

Meanwhile nvidia is stalling on their event for some reason. Great job.

If I can just buy an evga card today it would mean that they finally launch something properly...I'm pessimistic.

For all the money this company has they do some puzzling poo poo production wise. They have host segments where they only have 1 person with a handheld mic. They show videos on stage, and basically use a camera angle of it rather then cut into the actual thing VTR style...

It's min effort poo poo

I dug up my 1080's box and it looks like it's got a three-year warranty, not a two-year one as I remembered. I guess I might sell it and grab a 2080ti if the reviews are good and Hungarian prices aren't too high.

they'll be too high but a man can dream

I'm telling my mommy. That pubbie doesn't do video games right!
I can't watch the stream live, but the attempt to price the 2080ti in place of a Turing titan doesn't really surprise me if they're not doing a titan at all. I expected them to pad out the Turing Titan's price this generation, and I was planning on grabbing that to have it 6 months earlier than the ti.

I think he's repeating the siggraph graphics history lecture before they showed the new raytracing tech demo. The big push for all of nvidia's stuff right now is developing the next stage of raytracing so they're giving people a raytracing crash-course for context.

But yeah sadly it becomes a slightly boring if abbreviated history lecture.

I'm starting to get annoyed by that stupid leather jacket. He's trying too hard to sell it, and I'm not buying that the Taiwanese-born Jen-Hsun Huang is any kind of guy that unironically wears a leather jacket, and not as a prop, like Steve's turtlenecks.
