Nvidia will have pre orders again....just be patient.  It will shows up on their site.  I am keen on getting Nvidia's own design.  It just looks super tight, compact and sturdy.

Looks like 2070 performance is way better than 1080 Ti.  What to pick....

Amazing how eager some people are to part with their money! 😄

True for sure, but some people have it and are not afraid to let it go. Others have it and hold it tightly. Someone once said "money is like manure: if we pile it all up it stinks, but if we spread it around, it makes things grow." 😀

I'd wait for P3D v5...

+1.  Or at the rate flightsim development occurs, maybe even P3Dv6! 😁

The new card features real time ray tracing. Maybe we can finally turn up the dynamic reflection in P3D without getting performance hit. 🤡

The night lighting in P3D is pathetically bad compared to X-Plane 11.

Hopefully P3D v5 will address this and give us night environments that look real.

Hey guys...

Looks like 2070 does not support SLI.  Only 2080 onwards support SLI.  Well this looking at the Founder Edition data on Nvidia's site.

2080 is the sweet spot....but I will wait till some of you guys get it and show reviews on here.  Congrats on people who ordered them today.  Excited for you guys and excited to read about your experiences.  I am 100% saving to get these bad boys by end of the year.

Funny how some of the major tech sites are saying to hold off on the 20 series and wait for true reviews. Between the Nvida marketing hype and the outrageous prices, this is a definite wait and see card.

Exactly.  Nothing at all is known about the performance of these cards. You would have to be a fool to order now before true, in-depth reviews are published, especially at these prices.

I'm sure these new gen cards are superior to my/our 1080Ti, how much, we will see when tests and benchmarks are run. Don't ever take manufacturers claims for granted. It's called marketing. And prices wise, here in Croatia they will go up to 1,500 euros.

Well folks.... i was one of the first ones to place a pre-order of 2 2080Ti (that was the max number per person). They should ship 9/20. Let me be a guinea pig and test these bad boys for you. If not, can alway sell them. 

I own a lot of Nvidia stock so follow their announcements very closely. So this morning when i saw the pre order link in the site my finger clicked on the add to cart without actually consulting with my brain. 

 

It happens!
