There are many new models in the Nepali market, and customers can choose whatever they want. Ocean computers have brought Ventus series and Gaming X Trio series. They are the authorized distributor for Nepal, so people get a full 1-year warranty and after-sale service. However, graphics cards don’t show problems that much. MSI Nepal has launched all three new RTX 30 series graphics cards, and they also have good stock. Nepal is a small market, and there are very few people who use premium hardware. But the PC gaming community is growing rapidly.

GeForce RTX 30 Series Features and Improvements
The new generation of Ampere cards brings a lot to the table. They are pretty significant and give better value for the money. PC gamers are taking these new GPUs as a big leap. Therefore these are excellent value for upgraders. These are some new technology we get in the new Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 series graphics cards.
- 2nd Generation Ray Tracing Core
- 3rd Generation Tensor Cores
- PCI Express Gen 4
- GDDR6X memory
- HDMI 2.1
- 8K HDR gameplay support and footage capture capability
- 7th Generation Nvidia Encoder
- 5th Generation Nvidia Decoder
- Higher CUDA cores
New improvements include better ray tracing, DLSS, 8K gaming, 4K high frame rate gaming, and streaming. These are possible now with a high end GPU like RTX 3090. But the good value cards like RTX 3070 and RTX 3080 can also deliver a lot for better less money. In many ways, the new 30 series made RTX 20 series obsolete. Therefore these are very good options for people sticking with GTX 900 and GTX 10 series cards. These can also be good upgrades for people with cards like GTX 1660 and GTX 1660 Ti. However, we need to wait a few more months to get budget range graphics cards from the 30 series. But it now seems we will only see the RTX series instead of GTX.
Gaming Performance and Benchmarks
During the launch, Nvidia stated that there is an exceptional leap in performance. Many reviewers have already tested these cards and published the benchmarks. According to Hardware Unboxed, we see a significant jump in performance in RTX 3080 compared to RTX 2080 Ti. The RTX 3080 has an MSRP of $699, while RTX 2080 Ti had an MSRP of $1,199. This shows the gaming performance improvements and value we get for less money in 2020.
