NVIDIA GeForce Ampere 3DMark Time Spy Benchmarks show it to be 30 percent faster than RTX 2080 Ti
In the category completely a rumor, news hot the web today that an alleged NVIDIA GeForce "Ampere" GPU made an appearance in 3DMark Time Spy. Not details name wise is noted down so it is assumed to be a GeForce RTX 3080 or RTX 3090.
Rumored specs have been doing rounds for a while now, but this round the 3DMark Time Spy score was dug up by by _rogame (Hardware Leaks), the card listed scored 18257 points, roughly 30 percent faster than the RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition. Futuremark SystemInfo does bring a readout of the GPU clock at 1935 MHz with a memory clock at 6000 MHz. That last one is interesting as typical memory actual clocks are listed as 1750 MHz for 14 Gbps GDDR6. Please take the usual disclaimers in mind.
Rogame claims to know with 100 percent certainty that this test was run by an Nvidia employee.

But several archs has had a 70-80 % performance increase. From 980 ti to 1080 ti was a 70 to 80% performance boost at high res (even more in some titles).

Disappointing...I don't think so, it just depends on price.
And I will refrain put too much importance into which class (3080/3070...) it is. We all know too well that between generation, class's pricing range can change dramatically.
What I mean by this is even if it is the 3090 if it's priced at 650 USD a lot of people will be happy (not the 2080ti owner who were expecting bigger improvement though...)

No, it doesn't depend on price. A 30% performance increase is very disappointing - anything lower than 50% is a dud in my book. Only people who can't afford it anyways use price as an argument - again it doesn't matter, performance does !

Eeew, 30%??
What happened to the 100% generational leaps form before?
another 30% leap for the second time is just embarrassing now.
100%? Cannot recall that happening per uarch. The last couple were ~50%. GPU are not immune from the laws of diminishing returns, just like CPUs.
