People buying the RTX cards are paying for the tensor cores (576 in the 2080ti, same as quadro RTX 6000 and 64 less than the $3, 000 TItan V and $8, 000 Quadro GV100, 384 in the 2080 same as the Quadro 5000, presumably 192 in the 2070. You will probably only see comparable prices to the 10-series cards if and when the 2060 and lower cards are released. I for one do not believe there will be any RTX capable 2060 and lower cards. There are also apparently still large inventories of 10-series cards left unsold. Which further supports my belief that there may simply be no Turing cards planned below the RTX 2070. The RTX 2080ti to 2070 cards may simply be a unique off category of cards until tensor cores become cheaper and more widespread. Jensen did say earlier this year that (1) GPU prices aren't coming down anytime soon and (2) there are no next-gen GPUs coming anytime soon. I look at GTX 1080ti prices where live and they are still going for well above MSRP. and I don't believe there will be a fire sale come September 20th.

PC component prices are getting out of reach for many people. PCs for everyone. In our country it is surprising how many homes don't have PCs- almost everyone has a phone-many 'smart phones', many homes have an entertainment box. The issue that I see is how many homes have access to a computer- to write a CV, do some budgeting, send an email, plan/run a home business- and yeah, sure, play games. If you want to learn about PC hardware and software you can only learn so much off the internet- you have to actually use the technology.
So far I see is that high end gaming will become more 'elitist' and peter out not just because of consoles but because of lack of technicians to write the software/ create the hardware to a sufficient level- without an AI doing it all.

The RTX tech is cool but I feel like this is gonna be the next PhysX, and as someone who REALLY liked PhysX this is sad. I like the Real Time Ray Tracing but 1080 - 60 fps is Unacceptable for $1200 anyone who pays that much for a card is NOT gaming at 1080p and for the subtle differences in visuals displayed in most of the demos except Battlefield and the pace of that game means you probably won't miss it if it were gone, EVERYONE is just going to turn it off when it TANKS their performance for such minor improvement, I pre-ordered one and I have been gaming at 4k since the launch of the samsung UD590D a $500 panel any one who is paying that kind of cheddar is at LEAST at 1440p 144hz, or 1080p with 240hz refresh and they won't be happy with 60 fps either

No we were not spoiled by the 10 series card, yes they are overpricing the hell out of the 20 series no doubt about it. Gtx 1080ti $700 to $750 RTX 2080ti $1, 150 to $1, 200 thats what you call money hungry they got there fix off the miners and think they can get that much out of it now which is wrong.

Nvidia is marketing the new cards, the information, performance and price in such a way to still sell out their overstocked 10-- series stocks. Sure the 20-- series performance will be better with it improving even more after some driver updates once the stock of 10-- series clears.

I got gtx 1070 $425. 00 New, rx460 4gb $98. 00 New bicuas of minners overpriced gpu but now I'm going for 1080ti New if prices are right replacement for rx460 4gb I won't pay more than $450. 00 for a video card. i play fps game's 1080p 27in 144hz 1ms so I don't care about looks.

In regards to the hdr monitor topic. So it's safe to assume that it's not hdr at 144 hertz. It's more Tru hdr at 98 hertz. For 2000 dollars. Not thanks that's a joke. I'll stick with free sync till they can give me 100 Tru hdr at 120 hertz minimum

90% of you wont even get the rtx 2070 thats $599 btw before any mark up.
but i guess it gives you guys something to talk about until people get tired of tslking about it.
any affordable card is 5 years out at least.

I have a 27- predator running at 144hz whit 10bit color and im in love whit it it was the best $1, 600 spend (open box) my fan is not loud like many people say cant wait to get my RTX to see how it perform on it

I think this will be the first time I skip a generation to upgrade. I am not impressed so far with the 20-series information. I think my 1080 Ti for 1440p gaming should be fine for the next couple years.
