Lol was that a bust of JHH in the marbles demo?

 

[eastmen]

so they have dedicated hardware for data transferring

 

[DavidGraham]

RTX IO for DirectStorage the console alternative on PC.

 

[SimBy]

8N, 28B transistor, 2.7X shading, 1.7X RT, 2.7X tensor power

So up to what 70% faster in RT enabled games. About what I expected.

 

[BRiT]

RTX IO has integrations with Microsoft Velocity Architecture on PC, if I heard that section correctly.

Yep, DirectStorage support

 

[eastmen]

so looks like the 3080 is the high end card.

The card looks really interesting.

 

[Malo]

3080 is the flagship Ampere? Not 3090?

 

[BRiT]

Maybe the 3090 is their "And one more thing..." ?

 

[Man from Atlantis]

2.7X Shader TFLOPS, at around same cuda cores, i think double FP32 rumour is true.

 

[DavidGraham]

Those performance numbers were for the 3080 vs 2080Ti!

 

[eastmen]

$800 for the 3080 ? Their new flagship. ohhh $699. I might get it. I wonder if AMD actually has something good this time to cause this price

 

[Malo]

No price increase for 3080 over 2080 super.

 

[pharma]

RTX 3080 is same price as RTX 2080. Excellent pricing!

 

[Man from Atlantis]

3070 is faster than 2080Ti at 499$

3080 at 699$

3090 at 1499$

 

[iroboto]

Wow. Best nvidia presentation ever.

 

[Deleted member 13524]

So it's Samsung 8nm for the whole lineup?
Then the marketing material claiming 7nm was wrong?

so they have dedicated hardware for data transferring

Transferring or decompression?

 

[Malo]

Nice price on the 3070. Is that the same as their supposed pricing for Turing where everything was $100 more?

 

[eastmen]

here comes the titan

wow that thing is really big
$1500


Yea no thanks lol

 

[Picao84]

Those performance numbers were for the 3080 vs 2080Ti!

Is that confirmed???
