That bottleneck in Far Cry 5 @ 1080p

I think its time to upgrade the test setup

Thanks for the in depth review. I really like the DLSS the tensor cores bring, just hope there is a good deal of support rolled out for games and hopefully some slightly older games too.

I still think game devs will make great use of the RT cores too in the long run as free performance (when used right) for nice effects is always a bonus. Excellent RT shadows will likely have a no fps performance impact in a game for example as like DLSS it uses separate hardware than is used to render the game, while not over stressing it like BF V's implementation.

I bought one of these over the Black Friday weekend, I paid £749 / €843 and also really happy with it.

I really liked the grey metal backplate effect, LEDs were a little bright by default, but turned them down to min and is about perfect. - my case is on my desk just to the right of my face.
Nice range of effects too.

I cannot hear any coil whine or fan noise from my card

Such a nice upgrade from my old Fury Tri-X, over double the performance = very Happy !

Mine came with:

$20 Steam vouchers + $10 more for leaving a card review at the store I bought from
Battlefield V
MSI Immerse GH70 7.1 surround headset

Also as a surprise it came with £75 off a 12 bottles (you choose) case of wine costing £114.99+. This offer seems to be from CCLonline.com I bought my card from, but hey works out at about £3.74 with delivery per bottle. I find such buys are usually quite good quality wine too (some my father had in the past were worth about £10 - £15 in the shops per bottle) and cheaper still than the cheapest at my local shops
Hope this offer is as good as the ones my father got, was really nice wine which was why I found out what they were worth when I tried to buy more later.

Overall worked out cheaper for me than a second hand decent 1080Ti here in the UK ^_^

Any chance of a review of its bigger sibling? I mean the Palit RTX 2080 Ti Gaming Pro OC....I wonder how it measures up against 1st tier cards from Asus, EVGA and such.

Edit - Main reason I'm asking is because I ran the Fire Strike benchmark and got a crazy figure for the boost clock.....was wondering if it were a mistake.

Edit - Nvm, I'm such a klutz, I think the boost clock is pretty normal upon checking against the GTX 1080 Ti boost clock which was higher.


you got a crazy boost clock on the 2080ti?
