At NVIDIA’s pre-Gamescom event and keynote in Germany, the company announced a new set of graphics cards meant to deliver the “ultimate PC gaming experience.”

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, GeForce RTX 2080, and GeForce RTX 2070 are all powered by the new Turing GPU architecture, bringing together “real-time ray tracing, artificial intelligence, and programmable shading,” according to the announcement.

If you’re looking to pre-order any of these cards, they won’t come cheap. The Founders Edition of the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and GeForce RTX 2080 will set you back $1,199 and $799, respectively. The RTX 2070 will only cost $599, however it’s currently not available for pre-order just yet.

These cards will be available at Amazon, Best Buy, and Newegg. The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and GeForce RTX 2080 are expected to start shipping around September 20, 2018.

You can get a taste of what these graphics cards will offer with the new Shadow of the Tomb Raider PC trailer.
