Out of interest, just loaded up MSFS 2020 @ 3840x1600 (so still less than 4K) Ultra settings on the 1080ti. Flew out over my local suburbs for a few minutes.
HWINFO reports a max value for GPU D3D Dedicated Memory of 7493 MB. So your 12GB sounds about right. Looks like I'll only be shopping for 16GB Cards.
edit: looking back a couple of pages I missed that the 3080 is only coming in 10 or 20 GB versions. Hmm, was always waiting to see Big Navi anyway, but no interest in a 10 GB card, so that could make the AMD offerings/$ even more interesting.

I meant wood elves. I haven't slept well.
OTOH, Sand Elves would be fun to play in an MMO.

It's beefy. It doesn't take too much fiddling to get it to run well though...and without killing visuals by any noticeable amount.
I got one of these. Shipped in 2 days. Thrustmaster T.Flight Stick X Joystick

@China Bat Soup - I think you're going about it the wrong way. I can get to and from work in an old ass Grand Cherokee, but do I want to?
Yes, less than 5% of the user base of steam has a video card more powerful than a 2070 Super - but anyone can tell the difference in a more powerful Video Card. I have a 2080TI and I'm not upgrading until I see a dip in the used market.
I'm going to continue to treat my video card and processor like a vehicle lease and get rid of them when their time comes. Which, in reality, I highly suggest to anyone.

Mist being on your bandwagon says it all. Buy the top end card and sell it every update. You'll end up paying far less overall.
I was trying to be helpful, but I forgot who I was addressing the reply to.

Who knows, maybe AMD will drop their prices to prove there was no conspiracy? Right? Right?

Is this lawsuit from 2008 still going?

No. Nvidia settled that same year. I was just hoping. No idea what happened on the AMD end.
