LLv34_Flanker Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 S! Have to say it is an impressive card, with a hefty price tag. http://www.guru3d.com has reviews up with games and other benchmarks.
dburne Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) New Nvidia drivers are out with support for the 20x series of cards. https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/138070/en-us Since they also show support for previous gen cards I may have to give these a try before my new card gets here.

Artunius Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 Hopefully the new i9's are out in October and not pushed back til January, or my 2080Ti FTW3 is going to collect dust til then.

You and I appear to be on the exact same course. Although I will likely give in to temptation and throw my new 2080 Ti FTW3 Ultra into this machine.

The new chips are basically just 8 core chips instead of 6. Unless they overclock higher than the 8th gens you won't see any tangible benefits especially in Il2. I was hoping the 2080 would be far more impressive, the 2080ti is too expensive really, and the 2080 sucks. I'll probably be sticking with this 1080ti till the 3xxx series comes out.

SCG_motoadve Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 What is the point to make the 2080 if it has the same performance as the 1080Ti?

Yeah that may be, but I intend to go with the latest tech that I can for this new build this year and hope it lasts me at least as long as this one has.
kestrel79 Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 Any benchmarks yet using it in Flight Sims?
Artunius Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 I play a lot more than just flight sims. My 980Ti still rocks IL2 just fine, but it's getting a little wonky on the newer games at the highest settings. I just got a 34 inch ultrawide 1440p monitor to display all these goodies on.

Thanks for linking, Flanker, I counted on hearing from you when the Guru3D reviews would be out...
IckyATLAS Posted September 23, 2018 Posted September 23, 2018 I wonder if Jason is willing in a future release to adapt the graphic engine of IL2 to use optimally the DLSS feature of the new Nvidia RTX 2018 Ti boards, or in short use the tensor cores for an improved learning based approach to have the best and fastest possible anti-aliasing solution on Il2 visuals. The Ray Tracing option to improve shadows, reflections etc. is probably a too long shot, and I am not convinced it would bring much overall to the global visual quality. In the cockpit yes it would definitively improve the visual quality, as well as for the objects like tanks, ships, vehicles, trains, and planes but only when the are seen from a short distance. This would also mean that all these objects should be even more detailed to make good use of the RT feature. If there is a choice to be made I would vote for DLSS. After all the seek for visual perfection for a game that targets ultimate perfection as a whole (this is why we love you Jason and Devs) in the combat flight sim niche market , would make it logical to do the necessary adaptation to use the DLSS feature. I suppose that for those who own and play IL2 there is a majority of Nvidia graphic boards users (personal opinion and I may be wrong) which would justify the effort. The bad news would be if the IL2 graphic engine is completely incompatible, and would need to be completely redesigned if it was to be made compatible with RT or DLSS. It would be interesting to have Jason's opinion here, as for the future the technology chosen path by Nividia seems to be Traced.
