    Manuel@NVIDIA Along with the Chapter 2 Season 4 update, it also requires our upcoming driver that will be releasing on September 17th.

    How much did it cost.....cheapest ive seen on ebay is just short of £1000 and almost £1200 for third party pre-orders.....im just glad my 2080s give me stutter free performance with ACC on my 32" 1440p 75hz sim rig screen, £550-650 is looking even better for a second hand 2080ti now .

    your package of card don´t have one cd with drivers to install him?

    generally gives with a beta driver with inf file supporting your card on device id lines

    as of Turing, nvidia does not provide drivers to vendors for packaging with disks to prevent leaks.

    Is this a real thread? Asking for new drivers for a GPU that has barely been released.

    It's not uncommon that some retailers "accidentally" give out some units before official release.
    I was never an "insider", yet I remember buying an HD5850 from some eccentric dude who worked for the local distributor company. I wasn't even enthusiastic about doing so. We just randomly met somewhere, talked about PC hardware and he asked if I would be interested. I even payed less than official retail prices turned out to be. And he didn't care when I posted some benchmark results on forums before the NDA was lifted for official reviews. He even encouraged me when I asked, so I figured it was some sort-of "guerilla marketing campaign" (those card were great in that environment). Although those were different times in a country with fairly loose morale (at least back then). :)
    During the LiteCoin mining craze, I could similarly secure some of the first batches of Hawaii cards (but I didn't beat the NDA with the actual acquisition and kept silent about it anyway).

    You cannot break NDA unless you sign it.

    I know, I mentioned it to indicate the relative timing. But even though I personally never signed anything, the guys who trusted me with the unreleased parts might walked in some sort of leagal gray area and I didn't wish to impose any potential trouble on their heads...
