Has been quite a while since I bought a monitor so I decided to upgrade when I saw Massdrop had the VAST in stock at $50 off the original price. Man am I happy wit this purchase, monitor is amazing, ultrawide for gaming is great, but its also incredible for browsing. Need to install some other games and see how my GTX 980ti will hold up at 3440x1440

BOROSUN · 08-08-2018, 09:35 PM

looks good. never heard of vast, though.

ronmcdon · 08-08-2018, 09:35 PM

3440 x 1440 monitors are the best right now. I like mine a lot and see very little reason to upgrade it in the next couple of years.

Its a really impressive display at $549, 3440x1440, 100hz, 2ms, freesync etc. LinusTechTips did a great review on it when it was first announced.

I think this should keep me content for a while, really liked my ASUS PB258Q, but it was time for an upgrade. Pretty impressed with how my 980ti holds up too, should be a breeze to drive this thing once I get my hands on a next gen GPU.

Damn that's pretty.

A next gen gpu would work great with that monitor. I have a 1080ti w 8700k. On last years newer games I get around 60ish to 70ish fps, ultra settings w my 3440 x 1440 gsync monitor.

tb13 · 08-09-2018, 06:56 PM

I think I am going to keep my second monitor for the time being, not sure what I am going to do about speakers now though, I have no room on my desk now...

New Next-Gen Nvidia Leaks

Holy hell if this stuff is real next-gen is going to be nuts

BOROSUN · 08-10-2018, 07:30 PM

only 8% from 1080ti. i knew it.

but, that titan 15% performance more then V. that must blow for $3K V owners. lol

The 2080 being barely faster than the Ti was pretty much expected. Means the Ti version will be significantly faster, but its going to cost a pretty penny. Will be interesting for sure

im only expecting 15-20% for TI vs TI

unless there is another big chip titan+ and TI is cut down from that.

ronmcdon · 08-10-2018, 09:38 PM

I would just wait a bit longer to see how well the 1180 performs. Hell i might even suggest waiting for tje 1180ti, but then again with how bad nvidia has been lagging, it would not surprise me if it took until 2020 to come out.

1080ti might turn out to be a better value than the 1180 depending on price and markups. Overall this is a pretty depressing year for those wanting to upgrade their desktop gpu.

In the video that was posted on OCN, the guy speculated that the Titan may be a different chip from the 2080 entirely, if that is true, the Ti may be a full chip and offer some serious performance over the previous gen Ti.

Obviously still speculations though, apparently these might be revealed at SIGGRAPH on Monday 8/13/2018

I could see if you have a 1080Ti, but for me and anyone with a 1080 or lower these improvements look great. We'll just have to wait the official info to really see what this generation has to offer.

Nvidia Ray tracing will close source ei gameworks. Hopefully amd can fight back with better open sources support.

5 days left!

I’m already planning for the 2080 Ti. Will be my first nvidia card.

To allow game developers to take advantage of these new capabilities, NVIDIA also announced the NVIDIA GameWorks™ SDK will add a ray-tracing denoiser module. This suite of tools and resources for developers will dramatically increase realism and shorten product cycles in titles developed using the new Microsoft DXR API and NVIDIA RTX.

With these capabilities, developers can create realistic, high-quality reflections that capture the scene around it and achieve physically accurate lighting and shadows. Making these capabilities available on an industry-standard platform like Microsoft DXR means every PC game developer will have access to levels of realism never before possible.

Gameworks is for developers. In less you are making games this will have no effect on you. As long as the card supports Microsoft DXR it will work.

BOROSUN · 08-16-2018, 03:36 PM

Are you saying amd can get gameworks source code to improve/optimize their gpu performance?

Lol

That's not what you said. You originally said that Ray Tracing will be closed source. Then you switched your argument to GameWorks. The source code of GameWorks available on GitHub.

But, ultimately doesn't mean shit for the end user as it all goes thru DX12(DXR). Any gpu that can do ray-tracing can play a game with DXR. What middle-ware the game dev uses has no effect on the end user. Everyone is using the same API's(DX12).

BOROSUN · 08-16-2018, 05:22 PM

rt denoiser is gw. https://developer.nvidia.com/gameworks-ray-tracing
The upcoming GameWorks SDK — which will support Volta and future generation GPU architectures — enable ray-traced area shadows, ray-traced glossy reflections and ray-traced ambient occlusion.
does not apply intel nor amd.

facts is gw is proprietary and closed source

You'll need a Github account that uses the same email address as the one used for your NVIDIA Developer Program membership.

cmon dude we know what nvida does. they will never play nice with others.

2020 is a while. I hope they bring it. I would love to have three gpu manufacturers on the scene. Would drive prices down.

ronmcdon · 08-17-2018, 12:15 PM

That will be a good year indeed. I just dont get the sense there’s currently sufficient competition for nvidia gpu wise.

BOROSUN · 08-17-2018, 01:16 PM

It just has to compete within $200-300+ mainstream gpu.

There really isn't. The mid range and low end the 500 series can compete. On the high end howeverThe 64 often loses to the 1080 the 1080Ti is just in a league by itself. If the vega cards would have come out two years ago, it would have been a different story. Amd could have undercut the price.

With the new GPU's about to drop it will only serve to bury Vega even further.
