with such a price these video cards are absolutely not interesting for mining, especially against the backdrop of a strong fall in the whole crypto currency market. better to take cards of the past pokrleniya!
It would be cheaper to buy multiple 1080Ti than the 2080ti. Assuming you aren't limited to 2-3 cards.

So the overall sentiment is that the price is not worth it?
I purchased 1 EVGA RTX 2080 Cost was 750 It is worth having one of them. I don’t see that a 1200usd 2080ti is going to be much better then the 2080 The 2080ti has 11gb RAM at a faster mem speed. It'll be a similar difference as between the 1080 and 1080ti. I agree but 1200/750 vs 700/500 means the 2080ti cost 60% more then the 2080 and the 1080ti cost 40% more then the 1080 so the 2080 is better then the 1080 I was talking about performance, not price. Price is set by demand, expense, and market factors, not an accurate reflection of performance.

I mean...if you have the space, then not really, because a cheap mobo setup with bunches of pcie slots isn't very expensive in comparison to the price difference if you're buying in bulk. However, since we don't know what these cards will do, it's all speculative at this point.

However, since we don't know what these cards will do, it's all speculative at this point. Bulk pricing should be vastly cheaper than buying 1 or 2 cards at a time. Bulk discount should be 10-20%. You guys aren't factoring in the resale value of RTX 20 series. There is a premium because these cards will still be very fresh when you're done mining with them.

Yes so price to price the 2080 is a better deal then the 2080ti only if the performance to performance ratio of 2080ti to 2080. Is the same ratio as the 1080ti to the 1080.

Yes Except for the fact that if you are looking at Dollar spent per Hash Rate, A used 1080 Ti is still your best investment. You can buy 1080 Ti on ebay for $525 ( shipped ) all day. The 2080ti will be lucky if its 30% faster at hashing than a 1080 Ti, yet it still will cost 100% more.

A new 1080ti with a three year warranty can be had for about 575 A new 2080 with a three warranty can be had for about 750. Since I have 12 1080ti’s I purchased 1 2080. I would not buy a 2080ti for 1200. If the 2080 = the hash rate of the 1080ti and has low power per hash I will buy some more. As I pay 750 vs 575 for new with 3 year warranty in both cases. But do better on power then 1080ti’s I can’t tell unless I buy 1.

The question I am wondering: How long under someone programs those new cores to do similar functions as the new ACORN M.2 FPGAs?

Are you saying program the CUDA cores? I am not sure if that would add any additional mining performance.

Fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful. Just HODL.

He is probably thinking of RAY cores. I doubt you can use RAY cores for mining.

If it operationally makes sense, mining software devs may even try to shut down the ray tracing cores to lower the power draw. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I got a new msi vega 56 for 399.49 using same 15% off coupon. sale is done with. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FVpJ9C0I.png&t=665&c=1RhXrSDxcfaKpA)

It's speculative at this point.
I'd refrain from jumping to conclusions until actual measurements start coming out. Even after initial benchmarks, drivers and mining software could be better-optimized.
I'm not expecting a giant leap in mining performance either (certainly not enough to gamble on a pre-order), but I'm curious to see actual results.

yeah idk what the rush is, same with the ppl who all felt the need to jump on the fpga bandwagon early instead of waiting till products were actually shipping. I guess we never learn in this space lol

That ebay deal was amazing, though honestly it's just a one-off thing, so you can't really consider that as the norm.

hashrate still nothing, however, gaming 2080ti x 1080ti = 35% faster, if 35% is confirmed then is a huge disappointment.
