That could be interesting - I'd love 2080 Ti performance for the same launch price as a GTX 1080 (or 1080 Ti), truth told I don't care much about ray tracing (with its current performance impact) but I'd love to get more performance in several current VR games.
Also we need more performance per $, Nvidia maintaining 2016 prices for GTX 1080 (Ti) brings everything to a stand still - more GPU power per $ would mean that more users can adopt and enjoy PC VR.- Yeah I heard Nvidia lost billions recently? is this true?
I like my Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB and I run all my games in ultra settings and run VR just fine but I'll definitely upgrade my GPU for Rift 2 whenever that releases.
I just hope prices come down a lot. Regular people can't afford to spend £1000 on a GPU,.They must know that most regular people spend £200-£300 on a GPU and that's it. - IMO, I think Nvidia is preparing to counter AMD's new releases of their cards for average gamers who don't want to spend a fortune on a card. I don't think they will release a GTX 11??ti to replace the 1080ti (anytime soon) as it would probably cannibalize RTX series high end cards. Looks to me like they are anticipating a large % of gamers not wanting/needing Raytracing (due to $$$) and addressing it accordingly with entry/mid level GTX cards.
- So are we thanking ATi/AMD yet again for bringing down the spiralling costs of decent graphics cards?
As they did with the HD4870 series. Wow - took a few years for that effect to wear off and I could certainly live with that again. - It's always good to have competition, it keeps everything in check. Love em' or hate em' though, Nvidia has always been in my systems (apart from 3DFX...which Nvidia bought anyway)...though I did have an AMD cpu at one time...just can't remember when.

Probably some time in the 90s I would have thought for the AMD CPU, there was a period in the 90s where Intel CPUs were useless. During that time I saw a PC badge on sale at a Computer Fair that said 'Intel Inside Idiot Outside' lol :D :D :D

Actually that was my last AMD/ATI card, been with Nvidia ever since o:) I really do hope AMD can perform some 7 nm magic soon - we really need a comeback, so I can upgrade to a less expensive high-end Nvidia cards soon B) - The Radeon 5870 was awesome for the time, introducing Eyefinity (ultrawide triple monitor gaming). I was playing games like Arkham Asylum at 5040 x 1050 (triple 22" monitors).I'm running Threadripper on my current PC. Very cool (I actually do things that use all the threads).
