People where talking about.......

[Yashiees]

In the youtube comment section (not a place where i should be getting my infomation from)

 

"that when the new graphic card series come out, the 20 Series will just not be very good, and that nvidia just made the 20 series as a test for ray tracing and the 30 series will be top notch for ray tracing and better fps"

that person said something like this as i could remember from watching the video from my iPhone.

 

It just makes me kinda conflicted

I was going for an rtx 2070 Super for £500 Should I wait for the 30 series and get a 3000 card?

That person's full of shit considering we don't have any benchmarks or performance numbers to base off of.

 

Buy now if you want, wait if you can.

That comment made no sense. The reason for RTX in desktop cards is to reduce the price in manufacturing for their quadro cards because they can use most of the same tooling and dies. 

 

Assuming we will see the 3000 series cards before Christmas, availability will be poor and drivers won't be stable until February next year so don't expect to have good experience with it right away.

Depending on what you have now, either wait and see or get that 2070 super if you feel you need a better graphics card.

If you have something like a GTX 970, upgrading now makes a lot of sense to be able to play the latest games at decent fps.

this is correct, i would wait if you can. from what leaks i've seen its being announced around september. according to some leaks it will be super good, to the point where a 3060 will be comprable to a 2080ti. btw, i'd bet that person got their information from MooresLawIsDead, heres the link to the video where he covers it:

I currently play on a laptop with an gtx 1050 that doesn't even run any games properly+ the laptop is slowly dying and running on its last legs  . Even at low resolution. So I was going for a first pc build. So I'm completely getting a new pc.

 

and I'd like to stream so an rtx 2070 super would be good?

hmm... everyone else is saying different things, wonder if those leaks are just wrong?

heres the source for the other leak i mentioned regarding september releases. https://www.digitimes.com/news/a20200521VL200.html

 "With AMD and Nvidia set to launch their next-generation GPUs in September,"

If you want to build a system now, then go ahead and get yourself the 2070 super. It's a great card and good value for what you get. I haven't seen any real leaks as of today. Even nVidia's own roadmap does not indicate such a drastic jump in performance that a 60 card would outperform a last gen top tier card. More likely the 3080 non ti will be slightly faster than the 2080 ti but with less video memory. I highly doubt a 3060 will be that fast given that a 1080 ti smashes a 2060 in every task, except Ray Tracing.

Pretty sure the next gen cards will indeed feature a MASSIVE boost in ray tracing performance...the 2000 series was a 1st gen product...and 1st generation of new tech always turn out disappointing .
