Just played a few levels on a GTX 1080.
It definitely works, but needs resolution scaling option set to 25% minimum to sustain decent fps, meaning everything is very blurry...
But well, it works.
Guess it will need next gen RTX 3000 series for a good experience.
How? The 1080 lacks the Tensor cores required.

@ManuelG Thanks a lot! The combination of new drivers and new Quake 2 update fixed all my stuttering problems. Previously I had to set an FPS limit in MSI Afterburner for it to be smooth, but if it dropped a lot of stuttering was introduced. I tried all kinds of combinations with/without V-sync in-game, in-driver, G-sync fullscreen or windowed and so on and the only thing that worked was to set that FPS limit in MSIAB. Setting it in-game didn't work either. Also, the game looks better than ever now.

Turing is 60% larger than Pascal (481mm2 vs 775mm2). There really isn't that much difference between a die shrink and nvidia expanding the total die size in terms of potential performance.
The limiting factor with 7nm EUV is going to be power.
I'd expect nothing less than 50% improvement in RT performance and 40% improvement in rasterized performance. Remember that Turing didn't change nodes, so the fact they could squeeze any performance out was amazing, but that was mostly due to them doubling cache sizes and simultaneous INT and FLOAT.

yes it did.
Pascal high end is 16nm
1030 is the only part on 14nm
Turing is 12nm.

then you frankly upgrade to much and need to take this opportunity to learn the value of a dollar.
