2080 ti or wait for next gen?

I'm using a RTX 2080, would it be worth it to upgrade to a Ti or wait for the 3080 ti?

It depends on how valuable that $1200 is to you. If it's worth the 5-10% increase in performance or whatever it is, then go for it.

+1 thumbs up!!

For less you could get another 2080 and a nvlink bridge. that or wait for the 3000 series

Actually Nviida says they have 70% boost. I think that is only marketing speech, but take it or leave.

Even if it were, they wouldn't push it out all at once unless they jacked up the price even more because of the clear power gap between them and AMD. They wouldn't do it because nobody would be able to afford it, so they'd more likely stretch it out to around 30~35% increase per generation.

But it performs worse than a 2080 Ti.
SLI/NVLink is dead, the performance gain for the power cost isn't worth it at all when a single superior GPU like the Ti will almost always destroy 2 of the card below it.

430W for less performance than a single card running at little more than half that... that's such a huge waste of electricity for subpar results.

SLI, crossfire and NVLink are all dead. You pay double the cost and you would be lucky to get even 20% scaling in games. Half the time scaling is negative anyway so you are better off using only one.

Yes sli is not supported in most games.If RTX 3080 or 3080 ti is 70% more powerful than 2080ti then i will get it for sure as that will mean that evrything will run at max settings 1440p and max ray tracing 60 fps for a very long time. It will be huge upgrade from the gtx 970 that i have now. But if it is onyl 30 % then iam not sure.

Run without RT = twice the performance for minor loss in fidelity. If you bought the 2080 *for* RTX you made a poor choice and should have waited. Welcome to being an early adopter, where you can see the tech in action and dream of what it will mean, but only use it a low frame rates or rezolutions.

Run without AA = at 1440p or 4K its not needed, and any forms of advanced AA can lead to major performance impacts. Things such as MSAA can half your FPS for each sucessive increase as it is litterlly rendering the same frame more than once and merging them... Dpending on level of AA and type of AA chosen in a game it could reduce your FPS down to as much as 1/8th what it would be without AA. In many titles running no AA or FXAA vs advanced options will ofer a 2x increase in FPS.

i dont think, that SLI is dead. they would not sell it, would they?

its dead. Only reason it still exists is for world record benching.

that and potential professional workloads that can make use of multiple titans or quadros.

SLI also does scale very well if you are doing things like rendering where it can actually use both GPUs effectively and you get close to linear scaling.

i think the only problem that counts is the SLI ram dilemma. you lose half of the ram using SLI.
but i have heard of nvidia cards with 20 GB ram planned for the future. this would make a interesting SLI-20 GB RAM computer. and if there arent some games running, i would use another one.(i dont want to be offensive...i like SLI)

It's not +100% scaling, its more like 20%.
So 2080 SLI is equivalent to getting a 20-30 percent OC ( which really isnt possible)
you pay twice as much for barely an increase in performance in general.

VRAM isnt as critical as an issue.
