Review: MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming X TRIO

Well, since it's a 100Hz screen those extra 40fps are pretty important But yes, in most games it does adequate FPS today, but I fear about tomorrow. The next gen cards won't see daylight in least 18 months?

 

when is review of rtx2070

 

Hehe, surely with g-sync 60 fps is ok?

I am willing to bet that 3000 series will be here sooner than 18 months, more like a year... but time will tell

 

Hey Hilbert,

Will you do a review on the MSI 2080ti Duke too ? And if possible a comparaison with the Gaming X Trio ?

I want to upgrade my 1080 but im not sur which one of the Duke or Trio is better performance wise (aside the RGB lights).

Thanks for your work, always a pleasure to read your reviews !

 

Naah, I'm picky

Let's hope you're right.

 

Apple and Nvidia prices are becoming ridiculous. It's good though that the door for raytracing has been opened, but we haven't even really beaten 4K resolutions yet with "normal" rendition.

 

I love how the word idiot gets thrown out every single generation when upgrading is concerned. Never fails. This could be a big upgrade for someone that hasn't upgraded in a while. Some people can afford it and that doesn't make them idiots.

 

^ Agreed.

No reason for calling people names because they decided to buy them, assuming everyone who does, doesn't know what they're doing. Not talking about the pre-orders without any performance metrics beforehand but purchasing the cards after the reviews.

At worst I would just call it a bad purchase based purely on price/performance. But that's it.

 

I saw no mention of it in the review, but asking just to be sure: Do you remember if there was any noticeable coil whine on this model?

Looking forward to the Duke review.

 

What is the maximum power limit on this card?
Like for evga one's it is 130% and fe is 123%.

 

So guys buildzoid has done the PCB analysis of this GPU:

1. This one is using UP 9512 phase controller which supports up to 8 phases only and founder edition is is using MP2888 drMOS phase controller which supports up to 10 phases. Cost cutting by MSI ?

2. This GPU also don't have the power balancing circuitry like in the founders edition. I don't know will it effect the longevity and stability of this card but why MSI is cutting down on things like these.

 

Hi Hilbert, great review of that awesome card, I've got one question though. When you ran the Firestike benchmark, what was stated under 'Clock'? I believe mine's supposed to be 1775MHz (1350MHz) but Firestrike showed it as 1995MHz (1350MHz), is this 3DMark not showing the right boost speed?
