We've gone from the GPU price drops to talking about console's current RAM capacity...

Anyway, I'm not all that convinced to go for the 1080ti, not at that price. The 1080 being reduced by a bit isn't doing much for me either, which leaves me to wait and see what vega does and how much AMD sell them for.

Well this thread is about the new 1080ti and the Titan X price cut. So talking about the specs of the TI, and how they relate to the industry overall seems pretty on topic to me.

A lot of people think we have reached the end game with 8GB of VRAM, when that is far from the case. Consoles will hold back RAM for a few years, but once they make their next leap 8GB will look like 512MB did in 2013. 11GB in the 1080TI is just an strage place that PC goes in mid console gens. We will see GPUs with 24GB, 32GB, 64GB in time, and it is not to far in the future. 4K will benefit, 8K will benefit more, and VR will be the real winner when it comes to RAM increases.

Yes I agree it's OK to talk about it.  We are doing nothing wrong but there are always those who get their jimmies rustled so I was just making the disclaimer. You as a poster are enjoyable to chat with,  I've no issues with you :)

 

Anyway,  I don't think it will.  Ps3 games till this day still look great to me.  Ps2/ps1 not so much.  Ps5 gen will obviously be a leap but it's not like games such as Horizon and uncharted 4 will suddenly not look good.  We've reached the level where games will stand the test of time.  Only those who are obsessed with the absolute top end graphics for the time will be bothered.
