gl running high refresh rates on ultra even today

Uhm, I think I'd know what my limitations are since I have metro last light, gta v, battlefield 4 and tomb raider. If I downscaled to 1080p and ran those games on max setting (with optimal AA for best picture without getting excessive), I run comfortably over 100FPS consistently... that's just with a GTX 1070 as well, the 1080Ti is over 60% the performance. There's no excuse to say that 1080p nowadays isn't demanding relative to the higher end cards we have. Also, with the 78% resolution jump with 2K over 1080p, the performance loss is not linear, so you don't usually lose more than 40% performance, except AA has a slightly more drastic performance drop (although you don't need more than 4x msaa or 2xSSAA on good 2K monitors anyways). So the 1080Ti is more sufficient for 2K than the 1070 is for 1080p, and that is more than "sufficient" for high refresh rate 1440p. So given the likely 40%+ performance jump with the 2080Ti over the 1080Ti (or likely more, as much as 60% based on history and architectural expectation), 2K @165Hz and Gsync should run without a hitch on the upcoming flagship. Yes a single GPU, and from experience SLI has way too many downsides. Lots of lack of optimization meaning it can't be used in many games, and not good optimization in most games that actually support it. Cost to performance with optimization versus the flagship card is also not worth it, the 2x1070's in SLI on an optimized game will run barely better (if any better) than 1x 1080Ti, this is from experience and benchmarks that you yourself can look up.

I know what I'm talking about.

Also the 600 series GTX graphics cards had predominantly 720p users, I'm talking about arguments based on numbers and speculation, not assumptions and dreams.

which magical system are you using

1080ti cant even run witcher 3 at 1080p with hairworks enabled above 100hz

2k is a nice meme for ppl who have never had high res monitors

1080p has half the latency and can run a *consistent* 144hz

There is no latency difference with 2K, latency (such as GTG) are based on the display type, such as IPS, VA or TN

This proves you don't know what you're talking about

there is def a latency

look up tests

the bigger the screen + res the more latency

And my Gsync 165Hz monitor has the same latency for frametimes as a 165Hz Gsync 1080p monitor at the same framerate.

youre going by the latency on the box

not actual latency tests

Latency on the box? Is that a joke?

the box numbers are meaningless

I know that

GTG latency is almost completely irrelevant if under 5ms.

I'll bite, gonna find a video or two with same species different res monitors

i mean this is completely irrelevant to the discussion

But from experience, there is such a low latency with my monitor, sub 50ms

even if the latency is identical it still takes far more power to run 1440p

That doesn't matter lol

and a 1080ti can barely run games in 1080p

Uhh

Bait

Good job

the benchmarks dont lie <:GWjiangoPepeFedora:389447036329656323>

Those benchmarks are great

The 99th percentile is always over 60fps

And the average is way better

<:GWnanaFeelsDumbMan:392308462165426176>

Even for 1440p

The drop from 1080 to 1440 is so minimal
