I know some folks are having timid issues with the 3080's VRAM, but I'm honestly not that bothered, mainly because it's one gig less than my Aorus 1080ti, but it's a new memory architecture, making it more efficient with it's memory than my 1080ti, and costing the same price as when I first bought the 1080ti. I'm in the same boat, but I feel like I'll grab the 3080 nearly next year, grab the new hw that'll pair nicely with it and then bide my time with it until the 4000 series, and if that series isn't as good of a leap as the 3000 series, then I'll simply replace my 3080 with a cheaper variant, because by the time the 4000 series comes out, the 3000 series variants should be cheaper in some areas, meaning I'm not much at a loss, and I'll still be able to roll with the new technology in next gen games. I'm a bit like Yuri though. I've waited this long, and I do kinda want to mess with the RT in games and other things sooner, rather than much later on. |
The main thing making me consider getting a 3080 is after selling the 1080ti I could be able to get one for around £400 which is not much for potentially keeping my system going until 2024/2025 before needing a full overhaul. I'd basically be spending a similar price for a new console but have a system with far better performance for most of the generation and that sounds appealing to me. Either way now I probably won't decide until mid to late September at the earliest.
