    Can't wait to get Geforce RTX 3070 to run Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 on max settings and simultaneously raid at the same time....:rolleyes:

    At that pricepoint, 3070 looks very nice :).

    I'll never spend more than $200 on a video card. No point really other than conspicuous consumption (in the form of ebragging).

    I'm going to be a pro gamer and install five of these on my rig, maybe I will get more than 10 FPS in Emerald Jungle then.

    But can it run everquest with shadows on? Fluidly, even on raids? :p

    Remember those old computers that took up an entire floor of a building? Yeah, something like that, with modern hardware.

    Watching a linus tech tips stream, it was mentioned the cores on the new 3000 series cards are about 70% of the size of the current cores. Anyone confirm?

    Waiting for Gigabyte to announce a 3080-based water-cooled eGPU box. I was looking at getting the 2080ti version, but it now looks way overpriced at $1499.

    To be fair, the 3090 is replacing the Titan which is a $2500 card. So, it's actually a pretty good deal as well. The card replacing the 2080 ti (3080 ti) hasn't been unveiled yet, I imagine it will be priced around the $1k range, something to slot in between the 3080 and 3090.

    30ish% faster than a 2080 ti for $500 less, this should be a good series to upgrade to. The official reviews will be out on Wednesday, not saying the leaked benchmarks are fake but in a couple days we will see plenty of comparisons from reliable sources.

    My only concern with them so far is supply. I have a feeling they will sell out quickly and you know 3rd party sellers will jack the price way up on them.

    Funny how people spend so much money on a computer graphics card on a ancient eq game.

    3090 isnt realy a titan if you watch any tech news you will know its not the full card all titans have been fully enabled cards this is a 3080ti they are up priceing to 1500$ and lieing about it being a titan they are holding the real titan back just incase amd has something then they willl drop the real titan at 2k to 2500 to regain the fastest card in world crap they always pull.
