First Alleged Benchmark Results GeForce RTX 3080 Surface
Over in Asia a data-set for benchmarks the GeForce RTX 3080 has leaked online. The results are not 100% clear but would be based on the card paired with a system based on a Core i9 10900K processor.
The results have been posted in a video so the charts and data look aa little fuzzy. The tests would have been run with a 456.16 driver. The RTX 3080 would be 30% faster than a 2080 Ti. The set was spotted by videocardz who posted this first. They also mention that this channel where all this was posted has already been caught using fake review samples and publishing a review earlier (they hid the name of the Ryzen processor). This time leakers do not show any review sample, so we cannot confirm if they actually tested the card or have done a bit of 'guestimation'
3DMark Results:
- 3DMark Fire Strike Performance: 31919 (+25% 2080Ti, +43% 2080S )
- 3DMark Fire Strike Extreme: 20101 (+24% 2080Ti, +45% 2080S )
- 3DMark Fire Strike Ultra: 11049 (+36% 2080Ti, +64% 2080S )
- 3DMark Fire Strike Time Spy: 17428 (+28% 2080Ti, +49% 2080S )
- 3DMark Fire Strike Time Spy Extreme: 8548 (+38% 2080Ti, +59% 2080S )
- 3DMark Fire Strike Port Royal: 11455 (+45% 2080Ti, +64% 2080S )
4K in-game benchmarks. The card appears to be 48 to 62% faster than RTX 2080 SUPER:
- Far Cry 5 +62%
- Borderland 3 +56%
- AC Odyssey +48%
- Forza Horizon 4 +48%

I've been doing everything I can to convince myself to stay in the PC gaming hobby. But so help me, if miners dry up the market, I am officially done. That's the final straw. The 2080's sat at over a grand for months due to such. Unless they only prefer Nvidia and big navi delivers in performance and is available. I'm still waiting for that. 16gb over 10 sounds great.

Haven't checked Firestrike benchmark for 2 years. Only check TimeSpy nowadays.
If I'm not going to spend my money to 3090, there's no point of upgrading 2080ti to 3080 really (not going to sell my old card), especially if games are running in 2K and not 4K.
Better save all that money to 4xxx series or whatever is coming from the Intel and AMD. Only games will really tell do I really need to upgrade my stuff.
Since DLSS 2.0 the whole RTX stack has gained value to my mind, they're here to stay really.
Still happy to have sold my 2080-ti 900euros one month ago.

According to specs, 2080ti is 3080 renewed and optimized for maximum experience and performance. I expected nothing more nothing less. Ampere is bad like previous generation. 1080ti wasn't much slower than 2080 either. The hype WAS real. At least 1080 destroyed and vanished 980ti.

980ti is fast 1070 when you think about it. That isnt destroying is it? Nvidia stagnating for years, increasing only prices . Ampere would be this big thing but if it dissapoint now people will be pissed. Thats good for amd though.

Again though 3080Ti with only 12gb of Vram is pish.
I was hoping for the 3080Ti to have 20gb.
My problem is with only 10gb on the standard 3080 even though it might be fine today but what about tomorrow and the day after.
I could buy a 3090 but it's totally over kill for a ATX midi sized gaming build. By the time you are using anywhere near 24gb the 3090 will be weak most likely.
I want something in between the 3090 and 3080 or a 3080 with double VRam. I really hope rumors of doubled ram versions is true.
I could live with a 16 or 20gb 3080 whether that's a Ti version i doubt it. My feeling is they release a S version again with double ram and GPU cherry picking for slightly higher clocks. btw i doubt very much they'll be releasing a cut down 3090.
