RTX 3080 trumps 2080ti by a whopping margin

What are they smoking... almost 5k for a laptop, this prices are out of reality. For that money ill build a killer desktop and buy a office laptop

 

At this point used makes sense unless you have and want to waste the money, aren't 4xxx cards coming out this year? Idk hopefully prices dropping but that's probably a pipe dream, those guys seem to have plenty of business no matter what the prices are.

This gpu/cpu "sharing" thing needs some real world third party testing imo to be more than just the effect of new cpu/gpu/system CALLED something else and sold as such. I haven't been in the market for a while so maybe there is some independent data backing all that up though.

Prices coming up all the time and people tend to trust almost every marketing public statements by these guys, of course they're going to say anything for higher and higher prices etc

 

Basically yeah.

I'm pretty stoked to see mass market adoption of the mux switch as well as high end displays being integrated into laptops like the Qhd 165hz miniled display on the Asus Zephyrus.

It seems that Lenovo is increasing their laptop gpu tdps while also making them thinner. But they tout a 45% surface area increase with their thinner but larger heatsink. My bet is it'll avoid throttling but with jet engine fans.

Asus is going the other direction though by making their heatsinks and fans thicker which is a good sign. Thicker fans tend to run at a lower pitch as well.

 

Yep, the desktop version of 3080 will now get 2x TDP over the brand new 3080 Ti series laptop graphics. Or around 3.7 times higher TDP vs the most castrated of the 3080 mobile graphics

We will also most likely see an even bigger gap with 4000 series graphics cards. Maybe Nvidia will go with 150W max and included dynamic boost for the laptop variant and 400W for the desktop cards. This means 4.1 times higher TDP for desktop cards over the most destroyed laptop cards when Nvidia and the OEM make ready next gen de3stroyed gaming laptops in Jan/Feb 2023. This on top of an inferior die/vram for the laptop mobile cards. Yep a big change vs older Maxwell 980 N mobile cards that performed better than the desktop variant of exactly same card. What a progress for gaming laptops.

NVIDIA RTX 3080 12GB with more cores and memory to be announced next week videocardz.com

At this point in time, it is unclear why NVIDIA is releasing a newer RTX 3080 model, or what will happen to the existing 10GB version. What is clear is that NVIDIA is now to announce yet another high wattage GPU in a span of two weeks. The company already revealed its RTX 3090 Ti flagship GPU with 450W TDP this Tuesday and will now add 350W TDP RTX 3080 12GB.

 

Oh it is plenty clear. So they can phase out the cheaper 3080 10gb and replace it with the more expensive 3080 12gb , getting more money out of their GA102 chips.

Watch them sell 2gb more vram for $100 (or more)

 

Great idea offering cut down dies for laptops (people is happy for whatever they get) then sell the bigger dies for desktop cards for disgusting prices via their AIB partners. Big win... Laptops can't be upgraded and laptop gamers have to buy an new jokebook long before they has to. Nothing can beat greed. The agreements between the HW manufacurers and the notebook OEMs will help them both max out profits.

Even AMD do similar as Nvidia. First offer castrated cards for then make a new SKU with increased price point due the few extra added vram chips. They said they did it for the gamers, LOOL

Frank Azor: Radeon RX 6500 XT's 4 GB VRAM makes it

I will also say that don't assume that four gigabytes will be the only graphics configurations of the 6500 XT that will ever exist..

 

I was too nice

$1900 baby

 

Yep, not much to be happy about. Nvidia know how to milk and screw the laptop jockeys.

Just like I predicted. Same low base TDP but increased the bad idea #Dynamic Boost 2.0 # from the CPU budget.... What a failure!

The fastest gaming notebooks of the still young year 2022 thus reach the level of a gaming PC with Core i9-12900K and GeForce RTX 3070 Founders Edition, while to date the level of a GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Founders Edition has been the highest of feelings. A GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Founders Edition, on the other hand, is more than 50 percent ahead - gaming notebooks and PCs play in a different league at Ampere.
