Question, would you invest in the design and engineering a more relaxed thermal throttle algorithm on a cool running chip?......
The pascal thermal throttle point did send clocks through the floor but the solution for when I was running +power modded 1070s on 75w heatsinks was either less power, or more cooling...

NVIDIA Segregates Turing GPUs; Factory Overclocking Forbidden on the Cheaper Variant Techpowerup.com | Monday, September 17th 2018 12:22
While working on GPU-Z support for NVIDIA's RTX 20-series graphics cards, we noticed something curious. Each GPU model has not one, but two device IDs assigned to it. A device ID is a unique identification that tells Windows which specific device is installed, so it can select and load the relevant driver software. It also tells the driver, which commands to send to the chip, as they vary between generations. Last but not least, the device ID can be used to enable or lock certain features, for example in the professional space. Two device IDs per GPU is very unusual. For example, all GTX 1080 Ti cards, whether reference or custom design, are marked as 1B06. Titan Xp on the other hand, which uses the same physical GPU, is marked as 1B02. NVIDIA has always used just one ID per SKU, no matter if custom-design, reference or Founders Edition.
We reached out to industry sources and confirmed that for Turing, NVIDIA is creating two device IDs per GPU to correspond to two different ASIC codes per GPU model (for example, TU102-300 and TU102-300-A for the RTX 2080 Ti). The Turing -300 variant is designated to be used on cards targeting the MSRP price point, while the 300-A variant is for use on custom-design, overclocked cards. Both are the same physical chip, just separated by binning, and pricing, which means NVIDIA pretests all GPUs and sorts them by properties such as overclocking potential, power efficiency, etc.
When a board partner uses a -300 Turing GPU variant, factory overclocking is forbidden. Only the more expensive -30-A variants are meant for this scenario. Both can be overclocked manually though, by the user, but it's likely that the overclocking potential on the lower bin won't be as high as on the higher rated chips. Separate device IDs could also prevent consumers from buying the cheapest card, with reference clocks, and flashing it with the BIOS from a faster factory-overclocked variant of that card (think buying an MSI Gaming card and flashing it with the BIOS of Gaming X).
All Founders Edition and custom designs that we could look at so far, use the same -300-A GPU variant, which means the device ID is not used to separate Founders Edition from custom design cards.

On the scale of other chicanery going on, Nvidia binning GPUs is not such a big deal, they've been doing it for a long time (I had a 4th tier 6800XT that software unlocked and overclocked to beyond the 2nd tier 6800GT). Whether certain features or secondary specs will be cut from the non-A will be worth watching though. But its not alone:
You can buy a i9 8950HK and get anywhere from 1070 to 1390 score in Cinebench R15, i7s of between 860-1250 cb r15
You can buy "MaxQ"s of 1060/1070/1080 with the same name but 15-20% lower performance
You can buy a MX150 laptop and get anywhere from 2300 (10W) to 3700 (25W) in FS GPU score
You can buy a GT 1030 and get half the performance should it have DDR4 not GDDR5

What time is the NDA lifting today? That means official reviews for these cards will be out today!
I asked over on Guru3d after I couldn't really find any specifics through Google, and someone said it's 16:00 Finland time, which would make it 2pm here in the UK (BST - British Summer Time). That's the only info I've got, not sure if it's accurate, anyone got any official word on time of NDA lifting today?

New Nvidia Data Suggests RTX 2080 Only Modestly Faster Than GTX 1080 Ti
By Joel Hruska on September 14, 2018 at 9:19 am 37 Comments
https://www.extremetech.com/gaming/...odestly-faster-than-gtx-1080-ti#disqus_thread
"...One more thing. Nvidia’s 4K@60 line is 131 pixels tall, which means each pixel is “worth” approximately 0.46fps. The height gap between the RTX 2080 and the GTX 1080 Ti, measured top-left corner to top-left corner, is 20 pixels.
If we assume that Nvidia’s graph is accurate, this implies the RTX 2080 will outperform the GTX 1080 Ti by ~9 percent...
And this, in turn, may explain why Nvidia is putting so much emphasis on DLSS and ray tracing in the first place — because introducing a 9 percent performance improvement ... isn’t anything that’s going to get anyone excited.
...
The problems with these graphs require us to read them conservatively. The conservative read is that the RTX 2080 will be ~9 percent faster than the GTX 1080 Ti.
The GTX 1080 Ti will remain the appropriate point of comparison for the RTX 2080 based on their respective price bands."Dr. AMK likes this. -

Here is the first of NVIDIA's brand new RTX line up of Graphics Cards and today we have the RTX 2080 OC from Gigabyte. I am sure you are curious to see how it stacks up against a GTX 1080 Ti, so I compare them head to head at 1440p ultrawide and 4K, and throw in some 'different' kind of benchmarks. Though the 11GB of VRAM of GDDR5X vs the 8GB of GDDR6 on the RTX 2080 for $100 more, doesn't make it too strong a proposition for people wanting the 'latest and greatest'.....
Hardware Unboxed also arrived at similar results for the 2080 vs 1080ti, with all 3 resolutions giving similar results, here's the 1440p comparison - check out the video for the rest of the results:
1080ti @ $500 used is the same performance as the 2080 @ $800++ (~$850), with new 1080ti's $625-$725
With no DLSS or RT enabled games available at launch, I'd still recommend the 1080ti used (or new if you must), and skip the highly overpriced 2080ti ($1100-$1300!!) until the prices drop - maybe when the Titan 2000 arrives?, or when the new / used 1080ti's sell out.Last edited: Sep 19, 2018Robbo99999 likes this. -

Well, I've read a number of reviews for these new cards as well as watched some video reviews (Guru3d/Gamers Nexus/Overclockers/Toms Hardware), and I'm not particularly impressed with these cards. We're looking at a generational performance increase of 30%'ish in most games, with a rare few showing 50% increase in performance, and with Vulkan based games getting smashed with a 70% increase. This is a smaller generational performance gain than we are used to seeing, apart from the stunning 70% performance increase in Vulkan. On top of this disappointment in performance we also have a massive price increase on these cards - it's just not worth the money. If NVidia had launched these cards at the same launch prices of Pascal then these cards would be OK value considering that they have the ray tracing & tensor core accelerated DLSS features to offset the fairly small generational performance improvement, but they haven't done that. I would have loved to have seen these cards launch at the 'sensible' prices of the Pascal launch, which would mean they would have had to lower the price of their Pascal cards that they are currently selling, which is only fair & right considering they are 2 yr old tech now, however those Pascal cards are still selling at their launch price - it's just all wrong! Waiting for the next generation of NVidia cards after Turing and/or seeing what AMD can bring to the table are the best options I think - this Turing launch is generally disappointing and the ray tracing tech is just not mature at the moment, with questionable adoption by game developers combined with expected low frames per second performance when ray tracing features are turned on - all makes this generation a questionable buy.
On a bit more detail on 2080/2080ti performance: I expected more performance from the 2080ti over the 2080, the 2080ti has 47% more cores than the 2080 but performs nowhere close to 47% better. Even when overclocked to broadly similar clockspeeds there's still a disparity. I think somethings up with that, perhaps when you get to a certain maximum number of cores then you get reduced performance scaling. I really did expect more performance from the 2080ti given it's impressive specs.Vasudev likes this. -

From a laptop gamer's perspective, investing now in a 8700K (or 8750H) + 1080 instead of waiting for the 9900K + 2080 (if ever) combo is still a good decision. Due to TDP the laptop 2080 variant will probably be at the performance level of a 2070, which will be marginally faster than a 1080. And forthcoming games, at least in the next two years, will still primarily be oriented to non-RTX card owners.

Besides, whatever name the next generation laptop GPU eventually takes on - 1180 / 2080 - it doesn't really matter - I don't see a full RTX GPU coming to most laptops, maybe in name, but not intact in performance, as not even an RTX 2070 would fit the power / thermal limitations of most laptops - RTX 2070 185w / 175w (Founders / AIB) on the desktop:
https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/graphics-cards/rtx-2070/
So given the lack of a "name" available for a subpar RTX laptop GPU, which might turn out to be a new "GTX" rather than "RTX" GPU, the name 1180 works as well as anything else for now to describe the "next" generation laptop 1080, using GTX 2080 might be confusing.
IDK what @Eurocom Support has to say about this, I wasn't going to bother them, but given all the huffing and puffing about their helpful innocent attempts to communicate, maybe they can set us all straight on what's what for laptop next gen GPU's and 9xxx CPU's?
I am sure when Eurocom comes out with their 99xxk + GTX / RTX / 1180 / 2080 laptop(s) they will indeed have real components and real names for them upon release.
That doesn't make sense, given the power / cooling requirements for the desktop RTX 2080 - 225w / 215w (Founders / AIB):
https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/graphics-cards/rtx-2080/
How is that going to fit in all the laptops with a "laptop" 1080? Laptop 200w / 180w / 150w 1080's are already running hot, adding another 25w / 45w / 75w is going to be even worse.

Heavily overclocked RTX 2080 Ti steals every 3DMark record
By Jon Martindale — Posted on September 20, 2018 - 6:26AM
https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/overclocked-rtx-2080-ti-3dmark/
"Nvidia’s new RTX-series graphics cards might have fallen short of the performance hype that Nvidia pushed at its original Gamescom reveal, but the top-tier RTX 2080 Ti has some serious power and it seems, serious overclocking potential, too.
Thanks to a hefty dose of liquid nitrogen, one overclocker has managed to push the flagship card to new heights. As a reward for his efforts, he’s managed to take the top spot on every modern 3DMark benchmark.
In terms of stock speed, the RTX 2080 is roughly comparable to the 1080 Ti, and the 2080 Ti is more like a Titan enhancement than the typical Ti revamp of an architecture.
Perhaps that’s why it was so capable of demolishing the scores of Titan V graphics-powered rigs which have dominated the rankings of 3DMark results for the past year. It took a heavy overclock and some liquid nitrogen to do it, but that does nothing to diminish the results.
Overclocker Vince “Kingpin” Lucido has been a major figure in the hardware overclocking scene for years and especially so when it comes to extreme cooling. He famously overclocked the GTX 1080 Ti to more than 3GHz last year and now has an impressive RTX 2080 Ti overclock feather to put in his cap, too.
Under extreme liquid nitrogen cooling, he pushed his 2080 Ti to 2,415MHz, according to WCCFTech. That’s a notable improvement over the stock Founders Edition clock of 1,635 MHz.
That, plus a hefty memory overclock, meant that Kingpin was able to steal the spot in Time Spy Extreme testing, beating out the Titan V-powered competition by more than 500 points.
He’s top of the Fire Strike Ultra rankings, too, with a lead of more than a thousand points, and Fire Strike Extreme by an even greater margin.
Although we would expect to see other overclockers reach similar scores in the days and weeks to come as more cards proliferate out through the hardware enthusiast crowd, the big takeaway should be the impressive overclocking potential of the 2080 Ti.
Although it is expensive, if powerful cooling solutions can be brought to bear, it seems that its performance headroom is far greater than the stock clocks would suggest. Liquid nitrogen isn’t a viable everyday solution, but if a high-wattage watercooling loop can keep it from getting too hot, long term overclocks should certainly be possible."Last edited: Sep 25, 2018 -

This is overclocked but probably not max since I don't have access to the 124% power slider yet and I was getting power starved during the testing. From what I can see even without that this card is out scoring the Titan Xp even when heavily overclocked. -
NVIDIA Stock Falls 2.1% After Turing GPU Reviews Fail to Impress Morgan Stanley
by VSG Today, 01:35
NVIDIA's embargo on their Turing-based RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti ended Wednesday, September 19 and it appears that enthusiasts were not the only ones left wanting more from these graphics cards. In particular, Morgan Stanley analyst Joseph Moore shared a note today (Thursday, September 20) with company clients saying "As review embargos broke for the new gaming products, performance improvements in older games is not the leap we had initially hoped for. Performance boost on older games that do not incorporate advanced features is somewhat below our initial expectations, and review recommendations are mixed given higher price points." The NVIDIA Corporation share value on the NASDAQ exchange had closed at $271.98 (USD) Wednesday and immediately tumbled down to a low of $264.10 opening today before recovering to close at $266.28, down 2.1% over the previous closure.
The Morgan Stanley report further mentioned that "We are surprised that the 2080 is only slightly better than the 1080ti, which has been available for over a year and is slightly less expensive. With higher clock speeds, higher core count, and 40% higher memory bandwidth, we had expected a bigger boost." Accordingly, the market analyst expects a slower adoption of these new GPUs as well as no expectation of "much upside" from NVIDIA's gaming business unit for the next two quarters. Despite all this, Morgan Stanley remains bullish on NVIDIA and expects a $273 price point in the long term.

Morgan Stanley’s commentary is misleading at best and factually inaccurate at worst since most of NVIDIA RTX series final performance and features have not yet been unlocked
Analysts at Morgan Stanley appear to have access to a crystal ball, because while most of us are waiting for NVIDIA to get its act together and give us our promised titles with RTX and DLSS support (so we can judge whether said features are worth the money being asked) they have simply consulted this coveted spherical mirror and formed conclusions already, deeming it unworthy of the market. It’s only a pity this mirror didn’t help them with forecasting AMD.
The mistake that MS made with AMD was due to a lack of technical understanding of the subtleties at play in the PC-triumvirate industry – a mistake they have now repeated with NVIDIA. Just like we had been talking about EPYC a year or two before the first analyst had ever heard of it, and pointed out that it would be utterly disruptive, (while mainstream analysts were contemplating whether AMD was overpriced at $6), we would like to tell you that the data for definitively calling Turing a great success or a great disappointment simply does NOT exist at this point in time.
We would also advise you to run for the hills whenever anymore of these “analysts” present a so-called expert opinion. (Ed: Play nice, Usman).
So let me start by delivering on the problem statement. NVIDIA’s Turing GPUs are not meant to replace Pascal (the company has no reason to do this since no competition exists for them and you don’t need to win the performance crown if you already own it) and are instead supposed to add on top of the existing lineup with higher MSRP. The reason why NVIDIA thinks they can get away with this much-more-expensive lineup of cards is that they support two new engines that old graphics cards did not.
In fact, ever since we jumped from sprite-based graphics to 3D rasterized moving-pictures, there hasn’t been a single bigger architectural feature upgrade than in Turing. While Pascal, like all GPUs before it primarily contains only the shader engines, Turing contains two new engine types: Raytracing and AI (Tensor) cores – which could have absolutely monumental implications for the PC gaming industry – or they could not – but probably will as far as we can tell. -

What happens when you SLI two cards as fast as the 2080Ti? You break world records! At least until the REAL overclockers start getting their hands on their cards...

This two-way NVLink RTX 2080 Ti benchmark tests vs. a single RTX 2080 Ti (vs. SLI 1080 Tis), alongside PCIe bandwidth at x16/x16 vs x16/x8 or x8/x8.
Article: https://www.gamersnexus.net/guides/33...
These benchmarks test Sniper Elite, Far Cry 5, GTA V, F1 2018, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and more for the RTX 2080 & 2080 Ti vs. NVLinked 2080 Tis and SLI 1080 Tis. Test methodology is defined in the article above, for additional information, and expands testing for PCIe limitation testing when removing the NVLink bridge. This replaces SLI and the SLI HB bridges, but an HB bridge was used for the GTX 1080 Ti test in SLI.

Turing looks great on paper...but what about those prices?
Science Studio
Published on Sep 22, 2018
The used graphics card market is GLORIOUS right now! If you're in dire need of an upgrade, consider eBay, etc. for your next purchase! I purchased two GTX 980 Ti AMP! Extremes and an EVGA 1080 SC all for $800 in total. You can find even better deals if you're patient.
Also it seems Kyle's 1080ti is a poorer performing example if he is seeing higher performance from the 2080, even if it's only 10%, maybe he should OC his 1080ti to make up the difference.
RTX LAUNCH PRICES SUCK

The RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti are here but their starting MSRPs are nowhere to be found. Now that inflated launch prices have landed it's time to re-evaluate how much bang for the buck these cards offer to someone building a gaming PC right now.

Tariff's of 10% are in effect starting on September 24th, tomorrow!
Cards already shipped aren't affected, so that would be only Series 10 Nvidia GPU's...?
2080ti's Tariff of 10% of $1249 + $125 = $1400 USD !!
2080's Tariff of 10% of $849 + $85 = $935 USD !!
January 1, 2019 the Tariff's go to 25%!!

Published on Sep 23, 2018
Article: https://wccftech.com/exclusive-nvidia-rtx-msrp-tariffs/
We have an update on how much the cost of NVIDIA graphics cards is going to go up in the near future due to the impact of the tariffs imposed on $200 billion of goods manufactured in China.

"Tariffs on China begin tomorrow (Monday the 24th) Starting at 10% with the threat of going to 25% January 1st.
Building a PC is about to get more expensive. https://imgur.com/gallery/ivJqTNe

Expensive graphics cards - US President Trump ensures even higher prices
Many gamers think the prices for the latest graphics cards are already too high, but in the US threatens a significant price increase - and perhaps in Europe.

The demos from other studios look very noisy and a bit strange in spots, but that's offset by the rumours that the devs only had 70 hours since receiving the cards to add "RTX" and maybe that's how the tensor cores/DLSS will be put to workVasudev likes this. -

"It has now been several days since the release of NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and RTX 2080 video cards. By now gamers are fully immersed in the light and glory that is Ray Tracing and DLSS in their games. Gamers are raving at how great the gameplay experience has been improved by NVIDIA RTX features. People are selling their GeForce GTX 1080 Ti’s in droves, and plopping down hard cash on shiny new GeForce RTX video cards. A new world peace has just erupted. Psych, gotcha." https://www.hardocp.com/article/2018/09/23/asus_rog_strix_rtx_2080_ti_1440p_preview/

RTX 2080 MONERO mining Hashrate & Power consumption on RX VEGA 64 | RX VEGA 56 | RTX 2080 | GTX 1080 Ti | 1080 | 1070 | 1060 | 1050 Ti | 980 Ti | 980 | 970 | 960 | RX 580 | RX570 | RX 480 | RX 470 |RX 460 | R9 390X | R9 380X | R9 290X | R9 280X Tested : MONERO ( XMR ) using Cryptonight algorithm. Same hashrate for other Cryptonight coins like Loki (LOKI), BitTube (TUBE), TurtleCoin (TRTL), Leviar (XLC), Lethean (LTHN), Masari (MSR), Stellite (XTL), GRAFT (GRFT), Aeon (AEON), Ryo Currency (RYO), Haven Protocol (XHV), Electroneum (ETN), Sumokoin (SUMO), Bytecoin (BCN). Power consumption on Watts per hour.
tl;dw Nvidia inflated the difference between pascal and turing using turings native HDR pipeline, and the few games that benefit turing filled out the comparison chart - all other HDR and SDR games are unaffected and the 1080ti beats the 2080. Conclusion: 1080ti still advised over 2080 for price performance.
