NVIDIA has announced the GeForce RTX 4090 and GeForce RTX 4080, the first graphics cards in the new Ada Lovelace-powered GeForce RTX 40 Series.

I think what everyone is waiting to see are not features or performance, it's the power draw. How much juice are these things gonna suck outta the wall? Prices no better than last-gen, but thankfully no worse either. No mention of a 4070 yet I see. And only the 4090 has a release date, from what I have seen thus far.

A good portion of this was mining - where you could always count on generating a profit, and the more you had the more you earned.This is typically what economists call "price inelasticity of demand", where demand - unlike what we usually expect - doesn't drop off when prices go up. Usually we only see it for absolute necessities (food, water, fuel) not for toys.

Hopefully those days are done. I think we will return to seeing a ceiling on what gamers will accept - there will always be a few big spenders out there, but I’m hoping it revitalizes the <$200 market and we see the $200-350 market pick back up to being mid-range rather than low range like is has been for the last couple of years.
ProbablyI wonder if best buy is going to be the only retailer for the FE cards again.
I wonder if DLSS 3 works on ampere/turing. Even if it works with reduced performance increase.
Seeing that FSR 2 brought parity on IQ/performance with DLSS 2 (with nvidia still slightly edging it on both fronts), I expected that nvidia would bring DLSS performance mode at quality mode. That seems to be the case.
The performance numbers on FS are awesome, can't wait to try it.
Now let's see what AMD brings to the table.
BTW nvidia is releasing the card just in time for my Bday
Wow, I didn't think that I would care less about DLSS 3.0 than I already did, but locking it to 4K series somehow accomplished that feat.No, the DLSS 3.0 frame generation tech is 40 series only. Rest of DLSS tech Backwards compatible for older rtx cards.

I *think* they meant that the Shader Execution Reordering improves performance 25% on everything else, i.e., shader programs in contrast to Ray Tracing. I think that's what that meant, how SER specifically improves performance, they just worded it weird. So I think better wording would be: SER improves Ray Tracing performance 2-4x, and in Shader Programs 25%. I think what they were trying to get across was that SER improves performance on other things besides Ray Tracing. And the reason why is that because in essence, this is similar to Out of Order Execution on CPUs.
