    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

New RTX 30xx is coming

Not enough of an increase in fps from the 2080ti for me to justify moving to a 3080. Curious to see the 3090 benchmarks.
 
Based on that video...

IMPORTANT Note: This video is based on statistics and these aren't real benchmarks
 
For official test of 3080 we must wait one day more:

It sounds like the 3090 NDA ends later, which is really frustrating for those trying to decide between buying the sane card and the crazy card. :) I’m assuming if you wait until 9/27 to order a 3080 you’ll be waiting a long time for a back order.
 
Don’t Pre-Order Nvidia RTX 3000 Cards!

Stick with the current cards since it will be hard to get 3000 series cards and it's not needed for the current crop of games.

 
Well, I'd say wait for AMD to announce if you're not in a big hurry, but I certainly wouldn't suggest anyone buy an RTX 20x0 card at this point.

As for whether games can use it, I'm quite sure when I get my Reverb G2 I'll be able to push the new cards to full power trying to get 90 fps VR going on DCS and MSFS. :)
 
Today we will see the first press benchmarks. I'm curious about the results. According me, for owners of 2080Ti (if you have a financial surplus :biggrin-new:):

- if you have 2080Ti and run on 2-2,5K - its not necessary to replace your card (the difference will not be great).
- if you play at 4K - it will probably be worth replacing the card for 3080/90
- if you play VR - it will probably be worth replacing the card for 3090

or wait for RTX3080Ti (probably the beginning of the next year), the problem of the current generation 3070-80 is the amount of VRAM, for 3090 is ok, but we need something that gives 12-16Gb (especially for VR and higher resolutions). So there's a big hole right now, 10Gb and ... 24Gb. Probably for Ti/Super line.

But. I hope we will see some tests in MSFS, maybe the difference in FPS can be big due to the new engine and the resource consumption of the GPU here. We will see.
 
Soooo 10 FPS increase is worth $1600??? I have a 2080 Super and I'm not seeing ANY issues with performance. I have every setting set to ULTRA and get about 40 FPS average.
