Hello all, it’s me again, with the upcoming rtx 3000 series and the 3080 looking like it could be around 50% better than the 2080 ti, my new question is this: 2080 ti’s are selling for about the same price as a 3080. Since I was dumb and bought a 2080 ti earlier this year I am now stuck with a card that just dropped in value. Do you think it would be worth buying a second 2080 ti and SLI linking the two verses just one 3080? Or selling my current card and pay the piper and get a 3080? I know that the 3080 is not out yet, so it’s not clear where it’s true value will lie, however there are not that many games that run with ray tracing even now, so I am curious if SLI linking would be better than a newer RTX card. (Also if I need to sell my 2080 ti I think I need to get it on the market before it’s value equals 0) As always thanks and I look forward to being educated! T_D

Hello all, I read the first post in the thread and then went to the latest posts and went back a few pages and I did not see my answer, so here it goes: I have a 2070 super. Right now I could choose to upgrade to a 2080 ti (by selling the 2070) or I could buy another 2070 and sli link them. from what I’ve found there can be a better performance boost using two 2070’s than just one 2080ti, though not all games can use this headroom. Can someone confirm which would be the better/best choice? My main goal is gaming, with some secondary 3D rendering on Blender. my current setup is i7 8770k. With 32gb ram. I try to play on a 4K monitor at 60 FPS. bonus question, the two main games I am planning to buy this for is Star citizen and Cyberpunk.
