stormrider Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I am missing the point? :lol: Being able to buy it today was NEVER the point. I am talking about the price you pay in the UK to be delivered whenever the retailer is able to. I am expecting to have mine delivered in the next week. I'm not saying any more on this. Oh, so you didn't even receive it yet. Out of curiosity, how long have you been waiting? Banned by cunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gman109 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) I paid $2049 CAD + tax here in Canada for my Zotac 3090, that was 2 days after the official "Launch" date, from a local store where I've spent $30k in the last few years alone on PC/monitors/etc. I got no discount, just the ability to actually purchase one, the 4 other people who were there picking one up paid the same price I did. That's just over 1200 British pounds, 1324 Euros. I've got pictures of my receipt to prove that if anyone calls me out (pic of receipt is required to register for Zotac's 3 year warranty online).

Jolk Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Hello, Just received my 3090 this morning ! EVGA FTW3 ULTRA GAMING, I replaced my 2080ti without changing any of my settings. I'm using HP Reverb G1. I tried couple of "instant actions" in F18, F16 and UH1, those I use to check FPS and my settings for years :) Where I was around 50fps with my 2080ti, I'm now @90fps stable with all 3 aircrafts/helo. I also quickly fire Supercarrier Mission, on the deck I dropped to 80fps I didn't try yet multi with an "heavy" mission Intel i9 9900K + 32GB DDR4 + RTX 2080ti Reverb2 & Rift S + Warthog + Saitek Pro pedal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And congrats on getting your EVGA card already. I am in the que for the same card but did not request the auto-notify until Oct 1 so I am still in for a bit of a wait I am sure. I am really looking forward to when I can get my hands on one. Hopefully not too long after I get my Reverb G2.

Gunnars Driver Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Alec, I am not being sarcastic but if you look back carefully, DCS fans have been mentioning core code (engine) upgrades for more than four years now. When would you guess that ED is going to release these engine overhauls? Yes, not within The usual ”14 days” :-) From the thread about Vulkan API written by NineLine(community manager): We should also understand that Vulkan is part of a larger update to the Graphics engine, Vulkan alone will not be a magic cure all, but part of the mix to make things better, thanks! So we need to take actions to be able to enjoy DCS during the time. I dont think it is too bad though. I guess it is usual for people to use too high settings, getting stutter and then be unhappy.

wormeaten Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 BTW just to mention, 6900XT + Ryzen 7 5800X will cost just like 3090 alone and will outperform 3090. This is 2/3 of a completely new rig. Just something to think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Burns Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Price of these parts are getting ridiculous now, I built a top end rig for less than $2k about 5 years ago, maybe a bit more. Now just the GPU is more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigger6 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 So, one step down - would you go with the 3080 or 6800 XT for G2? I have the 3080 on preorder and it could get shipped one of these days but I'm considering waiting for the 6800 XT for extra 6GB of RAM.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealDCSpilot Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 The amount of VRAM will definitely make a difference for DCS in VR. i9 13900K @5.5GHz, Z790 Gigabyte Aorus Master, RTX4090 Waterforce, 64 GB DDR5 @5600, Pico 4, HOTAS & Rudder: all Virpil with Rhino FFB base made by VPforce, DCS: all modules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leaderface Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Maybe Nvidia delayed their 3000 series 8 nm wafers with Samsung to bring a little improved parts in early 2021. I will wait 2-3 months untill the dust settle down a little (maturity of hardware, drivers, avalability, etc) AMD is showing stronger than expected though.

RogueSqdn Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 The amount of VRAM will definitely make a difference for DCS in VR. Which is why I will likely stick with 3090FE with 5950x rather than switch to 6800xt.

tigger6 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 The 6800xt seems to have quite a bit higher clock frequencies, and ability to push more textures, and more RAM. I think it's worse than the 3080 in RT and it seems to have much lower floating point operations/s. My uninformed guess is that it will be quite a bit faster for DCS while possibly slower for new titles that I don't play... I think I'll drop the 3080 order though it may come any day now.

RogueSqdn Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 If I was getting a 3080 I’d consider the Radeons. But I haven’t seen anything other than price difference to make me switch from 3090FE, and price is not enough for me to switch.

Supmua Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I find it interesting that AMD didn’t provide any leak or hint that they would even match or exceed NVIDIA in raw power back when the 30 series was announced. This seems to have caught NVIDIA completely off guard now. On the other hand, they could also have prevented a lot of RTX cards from being sold/scalped. PC: 5800X3D/4090, 11700K/3090, 9900K/2080Ti.
