There seems to be increase in the pace of leaks now (accurate or not) -- As guessing goes -- the models (naming and vram) could look like this -- what about pricing, where does everyone think pricing is going this time around?

Titan 3090 with 24GB (perfect way to put a number to Titan series) -- $1999
3080 with 10GB $649
3070 with 8GB $449

All with August launch -- Sept Release (founders) followed month later by:

3080 Ti with 20GB -- $1299
3060 with 8GB -- $349
and rest of top/mid line up...

Sept launch (above) -- Oct Release (founders) Would not be surprising to see 1 or 2 (maybe Asus Ti) AIB cards do promo launch with founders cards.

Benchmark leaks seem to be less than past gens at this point -- Could we see more vram than the leaks (or my guess above)?

I know the prices are going to be ridiculous and I'm probably going to skip this generation as my current card is doing well. I'm also a bit wary of what the future economy and my job holds, my company has already let people go and set more to be laid off in December, so far I'm safe but everybody is a bit nervous.
 
I am kind of stuck like Chuck. I skipped the RTX 2000 series so I am due to get a RTX 3000 series card. Impatiently waiting, hoping that they release a RTX 3070 with 16 GB soon. I flat do not have the money for a 3090.
 
So far...

Ampere is on Samsung 8N process
1.9x perf/watt improvement over Turing
3080 = 28 billion transistors
At least double the ray tracing performance
Implementation of Microsoft Direct Storage in RTX I/O for GeForce Drivers to support hardware decompression from PCIE4 SSD

3080 is 30 TFLOP/s shader performance. 2080 Ti was 18.6, for comparison.

Pretty happy with that pricing. The 3090 is a bit too rich for my blood, but a higher tier RTX 3080 is well within reach.

I was expecting huge numbers, but they even took me by surprise. If you have a 2080 Ti you could upgrade to the 3080 without issue.

I imagine the big cost disparity between the 3080 and 3090 comes primarily from the memory. I wonder if NVIDIA might still be planning a Ti model to slot in between when AMD launches Big Navi.

I wouldn't be surprised, there's nice gaps between the product stacks to counter whatever AMD brings to the table. Really glad I sold my RTX 2080 Super when I did, feel like their resale is about to plummet.

And, yeah, really happy by those prices. Very aggressive, and probably a good sign that they're expecting AMD to hit hard.
 
This is a bummer, really disappointed. Seems I'll be keeping my 2080ti until 4xxx. 3080 is not a viable route, I need every bit of VRAM I can get. 3090 is no way in green hell price category.

I'd gladly pay $900 for a 20GB 3080Ti. There is that market gap I was talking about.

The 60% increase in rasterization performance far outweighs the "loss" of 1GB of VRAM.
 
the 3080 seems like the sweet spot but I'm curious to see how the 16GB 3070 performs

For games, maybe. But even there we already started to see games saturating 11GB. But for me it's important for other purposes too. For example I do a lot of rendering, and if the scene doesn't fit in VRAM it will be rendered on CPU. Which ofc means two orders of magnitudes slower. I don't know how often that 1GB would matter, but I'd rather not find out, I don't intend taking two steps forward one step back.
 
That 3080 will be a nice upgrade from my AMD 5700 XT. Waiting to see what AMD has to counter this release.

The 3090 is the card intended to replace the Ti -- Interesting part will be if AIB really sell at $1399, or if they decided to sell at the founders premium price of $1499 -- With AMD not ready to launch, it will not be surprising to see prices climb past MSRP and founder cards to sell out pretty quickly -- Then for 2080 Ti owners, the price is right for the 3080 as is the performance gain as well.
 
when does the review embargo lift- September 17th?...I want to see some independent performance numbers...is @Brent_Justice still doing GPU reviews here at FPS?

If I knew the review embargo date, I wouldn't be able to tell you, however, Brent does GPU reviews here (there just haven't been any to do as noone has been sampling any for months now). Therefore, if there are some reviews of these cards that appear after an embargo date that I don't know, then I suspect you'd find them here (we will get them whether we are sampled pre or post launch OR have to buy them at retail).

On that note, what HAS been announced is that the 3080 goes on sale on Sept 17th and the 3090 goes on sale on Sept 24th. The 3070 has not been specifically announced as to its on sale date.

The 3090 is closer to Titan pricing than Ti, by the time it gets here to EU, it will be probably close to $2000. If not outright over it.
The 24GB ram also makes it more a Titan replacement than a strictly gaming oriented card.
 
leaks are already appearing for the 3070 Ti with 16GB VRAM...I'm guessing this and the 3080 20GB version are being held back until Nvidia sees what Big Navi brings to the table...
