When do the next generation GPUs drop?

Nesrie · 2018-10-17T23:24:01.336Z

so net 520, you want to be talked out of it you say, ummm…

Chappers · 2018-10-17T23:24:26.004Z

You guys are all jerks :p

Nesrie · 2018-10-17T23:26:08.235Z

I could tell you to wait until the holidays but it’s really a crapshot with nVidia these days. Who the heck knows anymore? nVidia might be kicking puppies and giving out coal instead of sales.

It’s not easy buying green.

Soma · 2018-10-17T23:34:31.457Z

It is not easy buying red either, because at the top end, or even near top end, the red team isn’t competing. I can’t even find Vega 56 locally. Double u tee eff.

I see what you did there. Nice.

Alistair · 2018-10-18T00:33:46.218Z

Such a good deal I would get two and NVLink em.

I’d love to know the equivalent times to do the same thing with traditional GPUs. Only out of curiosity.

There’s this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSGpDMK6xxQ&feature=youtu.be

I saw a much better video showing the star wars RT demo between 1080s and 2080s during launch but I can’t find it now.

Chappers · 2018-10-20T19:41:33.153Z

Well you guys are all jerks, I picked up a RTX 2080 today. Anybody want to buy a 980Ti?

Edit: it doesn’t play nice with my 27" Korean monitor, I either have to buy a $90 active adaptor or a new monitor. Choices, choices!

This thread was made for you:

Used Hardware for Sale Thread! Hardware and technical stuff

When my mechanical keyboard didn’t have a sleep button I was very depressed. I had to learn keyboard shortcuts for that like some kind of animal.

Chappers · 2018-10-21T02:01:36.098Z

So I bought one of these:

ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q

Oops.

Will holes be drilled, for extra FPS? :)

I just looked that up. edit: broken link fixed.
Um, slightly more expensive than a $90 adaptor. WTH is wrong with you?!?

j/k I’d have done the same thing. You get to keep your PC Gamer card. Keep up this behavior, and soon you will have the PC Gamer Gold Card, just like @BrianRubin.

We all aspire to be Rubinesque.

BrianRubin · 2018-10-21T02:37:49.137Z

I’m flattered. ;)

Papageno · 2018-10-21T02:55:30.737Z

I think that’s the one I got last year. Love it to pieces.

BrianRubin · 2018-10-21T03:10:42.617Z

I think that’s the one I just got. It’s lovely!

LOL. I have a similarly spec’d Acer 1440p, IPS Gsync hooked up to a new card as well. I’m such a loser.

TimJames · 2018-10-21T03:45:26.006Z

Why is that Acer $100 cheaper with similar specs? Is it the same panel?

mono · 2018-10-21T14:02:17.239Z

I don’t know why the current one is cheaper. The Acer I own, XB270HU, I’ve had for over a year, and believe it’s been discontinued.
