I doubt it'll be 6 times on everything, nVidia group RTX 2000 series as a new way to achieve more photo-realistic view on AAA games with less wattage, so they must've working together with big game developers such as ubisoft and EA. And it does look more alive https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/campaigns/metro-exodus/ . I do know it'll be huge boost for augmented reality.
Yeah, I would be surprised as well. Based on the comparison specs for the 2070 vs. the 1080 (https://www.anandtech.com/show/13249/nvidia-announces-geforce-rtx-20-series-rtx-2080-ti-2080-2070) -- not the 1080Ti, bu the base 1080 -- if there's no ray-tracing involved, it trades off faster VRAM for lower GFLOPs, & only saves maybe 3% on power usage. Ray-tracing capability aside, it's almost certainly going to be like prior generations, where the 2070 == 1080 in performance.
EDIT: Per
Techspot, with the initial ray-tracing support, apparently the RTX 2080TI couldn't maintain 60FPS @
1080p. So much for "6 times the performance". Sounds like HairWorks all over again...
