NVIDIA announced in a press release on August 11, 2020, that the special livestream event would be taking place in September. The livestream, as always, will feature an address by founder and CEO Jensen Huang.
While no one knows what this livestream will be about, there, there are plenty of rumors running amuck on the internet. The main rumor is that the RTX 3080 will be announced. This would certainly be a huge reveal, as it would usher in a new age of graphical computing. Though, it does feel as if the RTX 2080 series were only just hurting our wallets.
Though not much is known, what NVIDIA is willing to share about the livestream is that it will celebrate the biggest breakthroughs in PC gaming. This is emblazoned across NVIDIA’s homepage, where a massive countdown timer has been running. The celebration will look to cover the previous 21 years of gaming advancements, from 1999 to now.

I added the rumors to that so we can reference it. Crazy how small that thing is. The rumor of "very compact" is true, it seems.
Also big question seems to be whether it's 7nmm TSMC or 8nm Samsung.
This guy says it's both - 7nm for the 3090/3080, Samsung for the lower end cards due to yields and Nvidia asking TSMC to lower their price and TSMC told them to fuck off.

I consume 8gb of vram every morning for breakfast!
-
yes.. Flight Simulator 2020 chewed up about 9.6GB of vram for me running at 2560x1440 on Ultra settings
-
10gb for the 3080 is a no go. i'll either wait for the 20gb super version or get the 3090. AMD, hurry up!
-
-
Do you have a 4k monitor? If not, you don't need to be running highest texture settings in any game really, which means it shouldn't be hard to keep VRAM usage under 10GB
-
if i'm spending $1k+ CAD for a new videocard, i don't want to turn things down a bit. i'm at 1440p ultrawide. FS2020 has already maxed out 8gb on my 1070.
-
The point is, you can't see the detail max textures on a 1440p monitor. Max textures are usually for 4k displays.

Apex Legends will consume more than 8gb if you tell it to

I have like 8 different ones. Sometimes you need a big one, sometimes a small one, sometimes a slotted one, metal, wood, rubber, sometimes you have one for foods that stain super easily, lots of times you need to use two at the same time.

Goddamn it's going to be expensive...

yah that could basically almost double performance with the same number of CUDA cores.
-
-
LOL so the flagship is the 3080... not the 3090???
-
[deleted]
-
Well the 3090 is a super-high-end product, so they're going to sell many more 3080 units.

I've lost a lot of love for nvidia over the decades, but I'm gonna hand it to them on the presentation. I really liked that transformation from the original Geforce 256 to the new hotness, while showing off their industrial design.
Looking forward to buying one of these next year sometime. -

That sounds really good?? Probably more for the higher RAM version, if available.

17th? Not RIGHT NOW??
-
uh.... you're shitting me.... $700!>?:

$499 3070 O_O
-
GIVE IT TO ME NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-

-
That's a fucking surprise!
-
-
-
Still not "cheap". $500 is still the same price as a full console and only gets you a midrange GPU.
-
-
This is why I'm holding out to see what AMD is going to announce.
-
-
-
Shot across AMD's bow there.
-
you guys notice that the x axis price topped out at $1400? that's the 3090 he's revealing at the end right?

Holy fuyck yes I am totally stoked! It's under what my top of budget was! HELL TO THE YISSSSSSS! 3080 for me!
-
Great prices. But the prices being so low does make me think that AMD might actually have a competitive product with 'Big Navi" that is causing the low prices
-
[deleted]
-
-
Yeah pretty much. Now we just need AMD to announce something. The 3070 isn't out until October.

3090 LETS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
-
Who care if the 3070 is faster than a 2080Ti. LOL
The amount of power they put in this thing is NUTS -
Man, the 3070 is pretty amazing though! 2080Ti performance for 500? Crazy.
-
-
I think everyone was expecting pricing to go the opposite direction. Normalizing doesn't seem like a thing that's happening nowadays with price/performance.

When do we get the benchmarks??

End of September.

That 3090 is massive, holy shit.
Interesting that he basically said the 3090 is their Titan renamed and referred to their 3080 as their flagship consumer card. I think there is a 3080Ti coming and (conjecture mode) it could come sooner than expected depending on what AMD's big Navi is. $1099-$1199 for a 20-24 gig 3080Ti on TMSC's 7nm process (vs the 8nm that these things are on) slides into the stack reaaaaaally smoothly. There is zero chance that nvidia leaves that gap unfilled. -

Jeez, you'd think some people hammering that the 2000 series was a feature update while the 3000 series would be the performance update would have gotten people to relax over the last couple months.
This always happens! -

I hope the 3090 fits in my current case. It looked a little bit thicc and longg.

I think the 3090 is aimed at a target so high that it's not reasonable for the average gamer. I think the 3080 is going to be the sweetest spot this go around. I was all down for a 3090 until I witnessed it's size and what I will assume will be the price tag.
-
-
If I had a leftover stimulus check then it wouldn't be outside my comfort zone. Then again, it might be nice to future proof your video card for 5+ or more years by taking the plunge now..I can't see that card being underpowered any time soon..
-
-
-
-
-
-
Fuck. In CDN funds, the 3080 will be ~999$ and the 3090 ~1999$. Not sure if twice the price is worth it.
-
tbh, $1.8k CAD was about the price of the 2080ti when it launched in canada from what i remember.

You can sign up for notification on nVidia. They're saying Sept 17th is the release so orders will probably be up before then.
-
-

These are priced the same as last generation, where everyone was bitching about the price hike. I don't know what makes these great prices.
https://i.imgur.com/cCVqHor.png-
I was saying this the whole time. Their new price points would be easier to maintain and let's them get ahead of inflation.

They were smart enough some time ago to make sure there were plenty of juicy software things that can promote and utilize the power of their GPU's. That broadcasting stuff looked pretty interesting.
-
-
Especially since AMD's software has always sucked IMO.
-
-
Yah over the past 5-6 years they've really broadened their software stack considerably.. Previously outside of just the drivers they really didn't have anything.

They won't be able to compete at all.. with Nvidia doubling up the number of Cuda cores that likely puts that card at something like 4096 Cuda Cores which is nuts. It would be faster than the 2080.
Unless Big Navi pulls a similar thing like this but I got the impression the Big Navi architecture uses the same design as what's in the Xbox Series X which has the same 64 shaders per Compute Unit. Nvidia jumped up to 128 shaders (Cuda Cores) per Compute Unit on Ampere for the gaming GPUs which wasn't expected. Considering that big Ampere for HPC still had 64 FP32 units on it per Compute Unit. -
Definitely a wait and see scenario.

DF vid about the 3080
https://youtu.be/cWD01yUQdVA -

*as low as 60% but also as high as 85 and often around 80%.
-
-
I want that marbles game.
-
-

https://youtu.be/E98hC9e__Xs?t=1850
Base on those slides, Maybe a 40% increase over 2070 super and probably > 2x over 1070.
-
-
not even in the same league.. DLSS uses deep-learning algorithms to fill in missing pixels even to the point where it adds detail that isn't even present in the Native Resolution image. AI Upscaling is just a fancy resizing filter that cleans up aliasing and sharpens the image.
-
Wait... in the DF video, it is a single 12 pin? Shit, do I need a new power supply? Mine is just 2 x 6+2 pins ...
-
-
Mine is 850W ... hopefully is enough. Yeah you are probably right about the adapter. However the tech specs on Nvidia's site says 2 x 8 pin connectors... hmm.
I am curious if PCI gen 4 makes any difference vs 3. My guess is no.
-
-
It's two 8-pins into a single 12-pin via adapter cable. From what I can tell the AIB cards just use normal dual 8-pin.
-
interesting... my guess is the AIBs want to use 2x 8pin for more compatibility and Nvidia is just giving the option to do so. Seems like the adapter will be good enough then.
-
Asus has some very clear shots of it -

It comes with a 2 x 8-pin adapter.. but could be borderline close to the current draw on those two 6+2 pin connectors for a 3080 card.
-
-
no, its a 2 x 6+2 pin. It supports 6 pin or 8 pin configs basically. RIght now its in my 1080 as 2x 8Pin
