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'

Well this was hugely disappointing. Still, I wait for official benchmarks before deciding what to do.
The interesting thing here is the power of marketing. Just think for a moment the huge impact this has had on people and on the used card market.

I'm not surprised one bit. They hype around the nvidia's own slides was insane, all the youtubers/media etc. did blow it up to astronomic proportions. I had guys that aren't even into hardware ask me if I heard about the new nvidia cards... so yeah
I'd wait for a 3080Ti, but I don't know if I have the willpower. Probably not.

Don't know if I believe those scores but we shall see.
By the way, does anyone know what the CPU/GPU monitoring software in use in those screenshots is (that shows in top left corner green/blue/red colour)? I see it everywhere, but don't have it, and want to get it.

One of my result with an unlocked (shunt mod) 2080Ti:

Guess the 3080 can do it better when pushed, but right now the 3070 came to my mind and want to see if it really outperforms an unlocked 2080Ti, specially if the new 3070's come power locked.

From the tests I have done with my 2080 Ti only seeing about a 1-15% difference. The poverty 2080 Ti being used in the nvidia comparisons seen so far are off by a fair chunk.
Even the Ashes of Singularity 4K test on 'Crazy' I got 84.8 fps compared to 88.3 for the 3080. While a tech dude on twitter beat it with a 89.7 avg. https://twitter.com/-rogame
Guess we will see when actual benchmarks we can all use come out and the settings used. Not interested in 1080p stuff, so hopefully GPU bound tests vs decent 2080 Ti's @ 1440p-4k+ .. Like to see how the vram holds up at 8k in a game with HDR, RTX and all that jazz
