I won't, because I have a 1070 I bought 4 years ago and I'm just waiting for the 3080 Ti now.

>have to also update your CPU, which would most likely bottleneck the card

Dunno if that's true, but I sure as hell am not upgrading my 1080 for it. I'll wait at least 3-4 more years and just get a big upgrade. I assume its a similar mindset for console gamers. Why pay a load of money if you can make do with the current hardware until the current good shit is cheaper.

Then again, not everyone cares about performance. I built a powerful PC for Skyrim modding but otherwise most games I play just run fine on the Switch. So why care until VR generation 2 or 3 is released?

but I already have an overclocked i9

if the specs of the consoles are as high as they were presented. a $500 pc will not be able to compete with them. consoles barely run things in the background and are designed to play games. $800-$1000 for a pc to can compete with the next gen in the least

Paying a heavy premium to get a technology 2 years before it hits mainstream isnt that much of a shocker.
Also 1200,- isnt that much, and they still fetch a good amount of cash used.
T. 2080ti fag

I accept your concession.

At 4k, the only resolution that's worth considering with an extreme high end GPU, the GPU is still going to be the main limiting factor

Only if you have a cpu thats like 10 years old

>m-muh teraflops!

Then the only games that make use of this is browndark AAA shitshows with awful gameplay. Meanwhile, you can play the best fucking games on older PCs and consoles just fine.

same as usual.
muh exclusives which are just some cinematic sjw games which cost double the price but have half the quality.
imagine being older than 14 and still stuck with a console

I just want amazing hardware for when VR is actually really good. Or to be able to play Fallout 4 at 60FPS when in the cities. I will never know how they managed to make that game run so fucking slow.

the average person won't care about the performance if they would have to pay 3 times the price of the next gen consoles, just for a GPU

It may seems like that but new consoles coming with new technologies and improvements that we cannot see directly. There are huge R&D teams behind consoles, expecially in AMD. btw I'm not saying the new consoles make pc irrelevant or outperform. PC is good platform for gaming but main purposes of PC's are not gaming. Most of loyal pc gamers missing this fact.

>pcgamesn.com/nvidia/ampere-33-tflops-gpu
>6912 cuda cores
These are... workstation card right.

Would be a valid argument if they cared, but they don't.

ampere? more like ARMPIT!

>GPU given a french word as a name

I fully expect this to give up the moment I try to run anything.

Look Im spending the big bucks dont get me wrong but if I only could spend 500$-600$ dollars for a system(console)I wouldnt give a shit about those high end cards,probably even mock them to feel better about myself.

I get enough of this bullshit at work. New manager has assigned desks when hotdesking was working fine and now I'm stuck between a neckbeard who won't shut up about Total War and an absolute weapon who plans to buy both the new Playstation and Xbox at launch regardless of what games there are.

Graphics mean nothing.

Same way my ps4 makes this whole board seethe while no one cares about any pc nigger shit

>pc

Uhm... It's almost like PC gaming is structured like a scam... uhm...

>m-my $1500 GPU w-will beat your $200 c-console GPU!!
I dont know if mid range users are like this but high end users just compare themselves to see the improvement,for example right now Im running 4k 60fps with my 1080ti and Im waiting until I can run +100 fps with a graphics card,probably the 3080ti I dont really care about consoles, why would I?Im not planning on going back to 30fps or lower resolutions

What the absolute, pure FUCK is raytracing?

Something good for interactive games.
Pure bullshit for 99% of games since most things are fucking static.

Is this a meme phrase?

No ampere released in 2020-2021 will go for under $1000. You can get two 9th gen consoles for that price.

>Something good for interactive games.
So for good games then

>Pure bullshit for 99% of games since most things are fucking static.
If you only care about "cinematic" games sure.

>Which means updating the mother board.
Don't buy Intel. AM4 has been supported for years.
>Which means updating the ram for the new DDR5.
Not even a problem yet. DDR4 RAM has been getting faster and faster since it came out.
>Which means needing a beefier PSU.
Get a PSU with extra headroom to begin with - they're not all that expensive. Newer components are more energy efficient, so you might not even need this.
>Which means a larger case.
Get an ATX case to begin with.
>Which means a better cooling system.
Ryzen CPUs come with a good enough cooler in the box.

whatever. i don't use my pc for graphics, i use it for games

The wraith fans suck though.

Brand loyalty is fucking pathetic. So why is gaming culture practically defined by it?

I use my pc to play games, not run benchmarks all day.

you raise some fair points but

if you bought a shit psu/case, that's on you man.

facts, I actually laughed when I found out ppl literally bought the last new graphics card JUST to run benchmarks and shit
just fucking play a game and git gud

>$550 cpu vs a $350 cpu
are you an idiot?

you literally have the world's knowledge at your hands, just google it you dip

33 tlops gpu is a Titan at best with a 3000€ pricetag or a professional GPU. The 2080 ti right now sits at 14 tflops and Ampere is promising a 40-60% increase in performance, not over double the performance.

>Which means a larger case.
Good. Anyone that goes for anything but full tower deserves to get fucked.

All games on PC are free, whereas on consoles they cost a fuckton, checkm8 buyfags.

So Consoles are getting technologies that Nvidia had in mid 2018?

here's your 3900x "for the world's elite gamers."

CHADtel

Console fags don't give two fiddly fucks about what's going on with PC gaming. They don't care mainly because they have no clue what any of that means. They don't know what tflops and vram are. You could explain it all to them and show games running maxed out on top tier PC hardware and they'd still laugh and say their Xbox One X is better.

enjoying your free Red Dead Redemption 2 piratefag?

Yep, for a fraction of the price.

And graphics have stagnated so much they're really not going to be missing out on anything with those lower specs. I have a rig I built five years ago and I still run new games at max settings with no performance hit.
