Okay.  So the 3080 is out and the benchmarks are coming out.  And as I was saying earlier, you won't need pcie gen4 to get full performance from this generation of cards.  Well, not just yet.  And here is proof.

LOL.  I've done that too. 

Anyway, still no solid news on big navi yet.  Most sources are suggesting that big navi should slide in between the 3070 and 3080, performance wise.  Same goes for the price bracket.  If that's true, it would suggest that Nvidea may have knowledge of AMD's price to performance figures already.  And could explain why Nvidea tanked their prices prier to launch.  Early price speculation was considerably higher.

Well, got some bad news from Nvidea's 3000 series cards.  Seems they are crashing to desktop once the clock speed hits or exceeds 2ghz.  And one of the flaws for it have been found.  Also, more news on big navi.  Going off of speculative leaks, I suspect the 6900 xt to land near the 3080 10gbit performance wise.  Time will tell.

 Actually not sure it's exactly clock speed of 2ghz, jays 2 cents did a testing after Nvidia put out a driver update that was supposed to address that issue and used the card with the highest boost clock to test it on. Whatever they changed didn't make a difference  in the benchmarks for that card. be cause what you assumed was what he assumed, that the fix would lower clock speeds. but it didn't.

I'm pretty sure that most of the issues are driver related.  Just like when AMD released their Radeon 7 and 5700 XT, the drivers were problematic, to say the least.  But have since then matured.

Well, AMD finally announced some official news about their 6000 series GPU's.  And if what they are saying is true, Nvidea knew it was coming and this would clearly indicate why they dropped prices so drastically.  Nvidea is going to need to make those TI and Super cards soon and keep the cost down if they want to stay on top.
