I share your enthusiasm about expected performances of the 3080, but I am waiting from real benchmarks from multiple sources and not relying only what Nvidia is saying.
I am running on a 1080ti for a couple of years, I hope 3080 will be close to 2x performances improvement, which is the sweet spot for me to trigger GPU upgrade.
Does the improvements will come to the pc version, like the enhanced edition of Witcher 2?
You sounds like your wife cheat on you with a guy working at Nvidia.
Sure there is some exaggeration from PR talk on new products, but at least Nvidia is not saying it does 8k native at 60fps.
Take a break and go get some fresh air, it is not good for your health to be so pissed for some GPU features.
Completely useless, especially when in Parallel Nvidia shows with DLSS that native 4k resolution details can be achieved by processing much lower resolution.
The only application I see that could benefit short term from such resolution is VR.
But will it help to get info on next gen launch?
Well, on my side I like the situation the way it is.
We will get the info close to launch, early adopters will get their product soon after announcements and will not need to stress for months in anticipation.
And it will cut short the endless fanboys discussions about who got the biggest one without any console in hand.
Look at what Nvidia just did: new products announced 3 weeks before launch, good specs, surprisingly good prices, everyone i...
So IO speed is the next big thing for real.
Well played Sony to have anticipated the trend and equipped PS5 accordingly.
I would even say MS big problem is to keep the current Xbox user base.
I am afraid they have done so poorly so far to market next gen that even some Xbox fan Are started to seriously look at the other team.
It is too late now I am sure, except from redoing the game completely which will not be the case in my opinion.
I am still very surprised that game journalists needed to see Infinite to challenge the « no hold back » lie from MS.
Anyone who knows a little how games are made, especially at DF, should have seen this coming from the beginning.
@TheRealTedCruz
Ok then, let’s play your game.
« Oh yes, thank you people who only want to spend a few hundred bucks every decade or so on tech for pushing the tech industry forward »
Please explain me what you mean by that phrase: do you really thanks them to push the industry forward, or is it sarcastic?
If sarcastic, why people « who only want to spend a few hundred bucks every decade» does...
@TheRealTedCruz
Oh yes, the usual “re-read” argument.
That’s convenience when sneaking a message to use it.
Your comment was disrespectful for what it implied, that people that only want to spend a few hundred every 10 years should know their place and don’t pretend to participate to the industry development.
And please spare me the enumeration of your possessions and habits to smoke screen your comment, i does not interest me...
But that exactly the case, despite the arrogance of your comment.
PC gamers like us spending thousands of dollars on pc parts are lucky peoples with to much money. Their is no shame to recognize it, and no need to disrespect people with less financial resources that go the console way.
A lot of people here does not make any difference between niche and mass markets.
This is equivalent to formula one and day to day cars.
Sure so...
I completely disagree.
PC brute force as always been poorly used as long as console market did not include as specific tech.
You are confusing first release of a tech with pertinent usage of it.
Their is many examples:
- vibration equipped joypad
- Real multithreaded CPU game engines have took off thanks to console including Multicore CPU
- Advance AA solution like TAA have started to be broadly used thanks to console
- ...
Once again, PC players must thanks console market to push things forward.
Sure SSD are part of PC for a long time now, but was just used as an extra for better load times.
Now that next gen games will be able use SSD as a core asset of game structure, i am sure PC minimum requirements will quickly moved to mandatory SSD.
That’s a win/win situation in my opinion, the general gaming community will benefit from it.
I agree with you.
I pick with no hesitation 1080p/60 on PC vs 4K/30.
The resolution difference is almost invisible especially with latest AA technics, while FPS is a massive game changer.
I think we will have more high FPS modes with next gen now that it is delivered with enough CPU power. It was a big bottleneck on current gen.
Congratulations to Insomniac indeed, especially because they will deliver 2 games for PS5 close to launch.
This is a heart warming exemple of a committed studio and clever game development management.
For what I see with R&C, graphic wise next gen is going to be a behemoth. Thing are already impressive at gen launch, that’s very promising for mid gen releases.
I am waiting to see how Cyberpunk will unfold on next gen consoles vs...
R&C is a Sony IP, it will never come to other console.
Maybe a PC port will be possible at some point of time as for Horizon.
Don’t comment on Sony article if you don’t like them :)
Yes I am, because of the bad influence they can have on the global gaming market with the way they try to force on business model.
But seems like for people like you, it is forbidden to talk about MS in any case except for blind adoration.
Any critical comment in a MS story is criticized with the usual « don’t comment on MS article if you don’t like them ».
Now it is criticized to talk about them even in a Sony article.
...
Flight Simulator is not pushing anything.
CPU usage is not optimized at all and rely mostly on only 4 cores even when more are available, which is a shame for a 2020 release, and is the main FPS bottleneck currently.

Seems like a DX12 upgrade is expected to improve it. ...
