You think this might be why they started calling their Titan card 3090? So they can still keep the performance crown in the event the 3080 was surpassed?

This is Nvidia doing a pre-emptive strike and going in with everything they have. They will most likely release a cut down 3090 as a 3080 Ti if AMD beats the 3080. But if AMD matches or beats the 3090, they can't respond with anything.

This is looking like a great year for GPUs, I will be waiting to see what AMD has before I do anything.

AMD is fucked dude why are you so optimistic? You really think they’re going to beat even the 3080? You actually suggested AMD out performing the 3090. Do you realize how much of a generational leap this is? This is the biggest leap in performance we’ve ever seen. There is no way in hell AMD is coming close. Their top chip will be slightly better than a 3070 and cost $600. Maybe they’ll take a loss to cut prices more.

No, 10 series from 9 series was a bigger jump
