Only $1200 eh, translating to 1400 euro. They must be high over at Nvidia.
September is an effing joke.
I know prices are way to high!
But since when is euro<usd?

In this case it may be worth the price. The jump from 980Ti to 1080Ti gave you more of the same. Instead of 90 FPS you would have 140 FPS. It is a significant difference but for most not worth the money.
Now you don't get more of the same. You get something different, and you can't compensate with turning of MSAA.
Either you have it, or you don't. That makes it worth the upgrade.

On a side note: I went 980 Ti > 1080 (current card).
Indeed, you either have or don't have RT. The real question is, how many games will make use of it outside of the advertised bunch from the conference? It may not worth it to get an RT card until Ampere or whatever comes after.
I'm also weary because of the fact that all they did was push RT and showed no comparisons to previous gens outside of RT.
By the looks of how hard is Nvidia pushing, Microsoft getting on the board, and with lack of response from AMD i think most of the AAA games will support it. And with implementation in major game engines (Unreal, Cryengine, etc...) even Indie games will have it.
The jump in non-RT games will be probably the same as with 980Ti -> 1080.
Why would i need to be bought to have a positive opinion?
It is a premium product, that offers the luxury of better features. And you pay extra for it. You can still have 1080Ti, and play all games without new eyecandy, and be fine with it.
I drive a Mercedes C-Class. It costs me a lot more to run, register, service, or repair than my friend's NISSAN Micra. It is a premium product that offers more features, and i pay extra for it. Why is it different with GPUs?
I'm not convinced that many games will properly and fully utilize RT; it requires a lot of additional effort and time on the dev part but without it their games will sell for an equal price. For now I thread carefully and say that RT is still in its infancy as far as said utilization goes.
We don't have the capability to do proper RT so obviously expecting it in real time is impossible. Pretty much what we have now is a RT with a denoise filter. It's a mix of current tech with basic RT.
LOL don't give me your stupid analogies dude.
Seriously, if you can justify £1150 on a GPU then that is fine, but don't try and convince others it is worth it. It's people like you who have allowed this charade.
Go on, order one. Then next year when they release the next one and it is £1500 come back and tell me the same thing. Because it would be you who enabled that to happen.
It is not me, or you, or anyone you probably know that is allowing this charade. Am I to blame that AMD can't produce decent GPU? Do you want to blame me for the RAM prices?
The fact is... When 1080 came out it offered regular bump over previous generation, and you would expect it to be the same price as 980. But i came at 980Ti price. That was a ripoff. And i didn't see much of a riot in the streets. Now you actually get something for the extra money. It is a lot but in non-RT tasks there is no point to replace Pascal cards. For that only (non-RT), like it was with previous generations, there is no universe where price is justified. For RT is justifiable because you get a lot of extra on top of regular performance.
Fair points I think.
Rubbish. He's just convincing himself to buy one.
Bit off a difference in price increase though...
980 Ti £500
1080 Ti £700
2080 Ti £1200

Don't you mean $?
The Founders Edition 2080 Ti is £1099 in the UK.
But what are you doing? You're convincing yourself not to buy one.
