Prob not, unless you really need that 20-30% perf increase in some games.

QUOTE ME IN A REPLY SO I CAN SEE THE NOTIFICATION!

When there is no danger of failure there is no pleasure in success.

Just because the 3080 is here, doesn't mean your 2080Ti is bad all of a sudden. It will still get most of the new features. If you're happy with your performance, just keep it.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

"worth" is very subjective

 

is paying $700 worth it to get 30% more fps? yes? then yes

 

that said, if you're CPU limited then upgrading GPU wont do anything meaningful

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

Uhmmm... At 4K the gap is the biggest between the 3080 and 2080Ti compared to other resolutions. Mainly because of the G6X memory.

Can you read my answer again please. (İf you are ''''''not'''' looking! part )i mean if you want a 4 k gameplay go and get it but if your answer is no just keep your card..this is what i mean).

It depends on your 2080 ti.

I use EVGA FTW3 Ultra and what struck me in the reviews was how low the 2080 ti scores were. The scores that I could test were in games that stated what preset they used so some used SOTTR at 1440p at the highest preset:

 

Jay's score was 112fps for the 2080 ti and 148fps for the 3080.

Hardware Unboxed got 120fps for the 2080 ti and 154fps for the 3080.

I get 137fps average. My 2080 ti is overclocked but that is the way I play. 

The uplift from 137fps to 154fps considering that I use a 120hz OLD TV to play is not worth the upgrade.

 

So now I have to look at 4k since my TV can do 4k 120hz with HDMI 2.1

Jay's score was 62fps for the 2080 ti and 85fps for the 3080.

Hardware Unboxed got 67fps for the 2080 ti and 87fps for the 3080.

My score is 78fps.  Again not a worthwhile upgrade.

For 4k I will need a 3090 so that is what I am planning to get.

 

I did ask on the EVGA forums since there are lots of FTW3 Ultra owners on there why the reviews had such low scores for the 2080 ti and a EVGA 2080 ti Black owner said the scores were spot on compared to there card. The Black is limited in power to 280 watts and my card can do 100 watts more.

JAY tested the 2080Ti FE card, so the EVGA Black would match that.

The 3080 turned out to be a big disappointment in terms of performance. In terms of price its a big improvement over the 2080ti, but thats only because the 2080ti was so overpriced to begin with.

Yes, if you plan to upgrade your monitor - 3080 will be much better than even 2080ti for a 4k 144hz monitor
