Nvidia confirms Pascal and Turing GPUs will co-exist, but not compete

If/when I buy a 20x0 card, it will be for a regular FPS boost over a similarly priced 10x0 card. I'm looking for higher performance, not lower thanks to ray tracing.

lol
Someone please tell me - this is still a tech site right? So how are you throwing shade at a company giving you options and trying to improve our gaming experiences? Don't like it, don't use it. It's simple.

Well there is always sli lol except the 2070 cant sli so it seems the 2070 is probably the most pointless card in the lineup.

Lmao! Cheaper cards are never pointless, and SLi is for setups that 80% of us don't have.

Apparently my writing style is not clear enough for some people here. Lets try again:

I will buy a 20x0 for it's increased FPS in regular games over a similarly priced 10x0. That's it. You know like any other new Gen card. More FPS.

I will probably never use the ray tracing option on the card because it will have the opposite effect. Fewer FPS. Bad.

They don't know. The speculation over RTX performance comes from Shadow of The Tomb Raider video with Ray Tracing on. It was 1080p 60 fps with hiccups on the RTX 2080Ti. This is just not what someone paying US 1.200 dollars expect.

Exactly premium pricing for an alpha product!

When it comes to raytracing its a different story.

That's what I thought you said. Features like ray tracing are obviously not coming with no performance hit, so your scenario is no different than if ray tracing was replaced with antialiasing. And no one is complaining about that performance hit are they? No, because it has different levels and can ultimately be completely turned off unless it was embedded in the quality settings.

Point being, its absolutely ridiculous to say ray tracing is/could be a performance killer, ESPECIALLY considering how new the technology is.

This is a tech site and I assume we all love tech, so I get confused when so called "techies" can't acknowledge the fact tech is not perfect, and gets improved over time.

Comments like yours make no sense in this kind of environment. None. If only performance matters, then wait for the reviews. There is no reason to bad mouth the technology this early in the game. Pun intended.

lol
SLi = small market
Ray tracing = even smaller market
Any questions?

Cant further comment on anan alpha product that has no been released yet.
Lets wait and see on benchmarks.
I still think the 1080 is going look more attractive vs the 2070 even if you dont take sli into consideration.

Update fyi nvidia actually showed the star wars ray tracing demo initially on 4 volta gpus. On paper ray tracing tasks and ai tasks should scale better than traditional gaming without those things in those specific tasks when it comes to sli. Guess who controlls gameworks libraries like rtx and ai anti aliasing? Its nvidia and less so game devs compared to traditional gaming!


Any questions?
