same thing they did before lower the prices for new card or adjust for gap cards like we always see

the delayed top gaming card from last generation launched at 700

the 980ti at 650

the 780ti at 700


I have doubts they will launch anything above 2080ti performance for that price. 

muh specs 

Gaming and HTPC (reparations)- ASUS 1080, MSI X99A SLI Plus, 5820k- 4.5GHz @ 1.25v, asetek based 360mm AIO, RM 1000x, 16GB memory, 750D with front USB 2.0 replaced with 3.0  ports, 2 250GB 850 EVOs in Raid 0 (why not, only has games on it), some hard drives

Screens- Acer preditor XB241H (1080p, 144Hz Gsync), LG 1080p ultrawide, (all mounted) directly wired to TV in other room

Stuff- k70 with reds, steel series rival, g13, full desk covering mouse mat

All parts black

Workstation(desk)- 3770k, 970 reference, 16GB of some crucial memory, a motherboard of some kind I don't remember, Micomsoft SC-512N1-L/DVI, CM Storm Trooper (It's got a handle, can you handle that?), 240mm Asetek based AIO, Crucial M550 256GB (upgrade soon), some hard drives, disc drives, and hot swap bays

Screens- 3  ASUS VN248H-P IPS 1080p screens mounted on a stand, some old tv on the wall above it. 

Stuff- Epicgear defiant (solderless swappable switches), g600, moutned mic and other stuff. 

Laptop docking area- 2 1440p korean monitors mounted, one AHVA matte, one samsung PLS gloss (very annoying, yes). Trashy Razer blackwidow chroma...I mean like the J key doesn't click anymore. I got a model M i use on it to, but its time for a new keyboard. Some edgy Utechsmart mouse similar to g600. Hooked to laptop dock for both of my dell precision laptops. (not only docking area)

Shelf- i7-2600 non-k (has vt-d), 380t, some ASUS sandy itx board, intel quad nic. Currently hosts shared files, setting up as pfsense box in VM. Also acts as spare gaming PC with a 580 or whatever someone brings. Hooked into laptop dock area via usb switch

~30%-40% has been the average throughout history when comparing what's being released vs. what it's replacing. Usually it requires a game or application specifically designed around the GPU's new features to make the new GPU kick the old one into the curb. There have been exceptions of course, but this has been the trend.

 

But ultimately, if you don't like it, don't buy it. Clearly there are enough people who want the RTX series, so there's no reason for NVIDIA (or anyone else in their shoes) to cave into people who either don't like what they're doing or can't afford it.

No one's forcing you to buy a 2080 Ti. Turing isn't simply a refined Pascal; it does pack a lot of new tech with it (the tensor cores, the ability to deal with a proprietary ray-tracing pipeline in real-time, GDDR6, etc.) and with new tech comes higher prices.

If the market doesn't support the price, then Nvidia will have to adjust.  Since there is not anything that competes with the 2080 Ti at this time, Nvidia is the only one that can set the price.
