Damn.
So back in 2002, you could buy a top of the line Ati card that absolutely demolished the contemorary nvidia cards for only $399.
"leaked" nvidia gtx 1180/2080 turing bla bla bla pcb leaked
Thanks for the feels user. My Radeon9700 Pro still works. Just need a Tribes or TFC 1.5 server to go own some plebs. They'll never make good FPSs again.
what in the serious fuck am I reading. Another user in the tribes scene. If you only knew...
I don't play games anymore, but I get the feeling gameplay wise we have only declined. Battlefield 1942 and the Desert combat mod were the pinnacle of "arcade style" infantry/vehicle combat.
No cancerous weapon upgrades, micro transactions, streamers, etc.
Sure they look like shit by todays standards, but the gameplay was solid. Now imagine if the advances in gameplay mirrored those of graphics.
No doubt the new battlefield will be complete cancer with no skill vehicles and niggers everywhere.
Opinion discarded.
but muh lighting, muh reflections, muh refraction's. I don't vidya any more either but watched the NVIDA kynote yesterday out of curiosity. All this hype of light effects is fucking wack.

It will look the same as it does up close, provided the textures/lod are the same too
Its about getting closer to photorealistic real-time rendering, and will make lighting maps in games much easier, meaning less dev time and better looking maps, especially for open world games that otherwise usually have buggy shadow areas and whatnot.
The dealbreaker for me, though, is whether it can do 60fps. Seems a bit dubious as of now, so im going to wait for actual game fps benchmarks before deciding whether or not the 2060 is worth 600.
