1070 faster than titanx

lol, lets see in what. First reviews, zero VR games, 1080gtx will be absolutely no where near twice as fast as a Titan X.

 

[AllBodies]

So £300 and faster than a Titan X? I'm sure that'll sell like hot cakes.

1080 is too expensive though, shame.

 

[Flanno]

In VR, due to their more efficient pipeline.

Right...we're still on vr

 

[Rroff]

So I guess they must be in volume production like

 

[maonayze]

I gotta say that is impressive - **** 1080 available May 27th 1070 FASTER THAN TITAN x Available June 10.

Obviously they will make it look unbelievable...and they have. So where is the catch ??

 

[Digital X]

Decisions, decisions guys!

 

[Kellogz]

Those prices are insane, i was expecting 1k for the 1080 and 600 for the 1070 with the specs they where saying... VERY happy with the price point think ill be getting the 1080 now, pre orders tommorow im guessing gonna be a hot upgrade card...

UK gouging tax I expect

For NVIDIA to price these so 'low' - they must know Polaris is a worth architecture IMO.

Fantastic time to buy a new GPU - I'l try and wait for Polaris, so I can compare the difference, but will most likely be getting a 1080 on release

1070 is cheap, is the new 970.

More importantly, a 970 without a gimped memory bus, at last. AMD are going to have a lot to keep up with, it looks like.
Now for sleep

Lolwut? You not been around for a node change before?

If the prices went up every generation, we'd be on £5000 midrange cards by now!

I doubt a 390s as fast

 

[humbug]

If the real world reviews stack up its a good price for the 1070, i'm still waiting on AMD tho...

1070 has 30-40% less bandwidth than the 1080... "not gimped bus" lol, yeah, GDDR5 NOT X memory on it.

 

[AlamoX]

well thats a really hard show to beat for AMD + 1080 coming in 3 weeks not that expensive.

 

[Safetytrousers]

Where are the forum people who 'knew' Pascal wouldn't be available until 2017 now?

The real question though is will the 1080 do GTAV with ultra grass on above 60fps?

 

[Flanno]

I am building my first gaming rig since 2011, so it will be great to get a 1080 or 1070 even.

 

[D.P.]

$379 1070 eh. And claiming that's also faster than a Titan X

Damn, Nvidia, just keep hitting them out of the ballpark why don't you.

Hopefully AMD have something up their sleeve because it's going to be tough beating a $379 TitanX killer.

 

[Andromeda1983]

Well there goes my 970 to the MM LOL

The way they where talking i expected the 1080 to be there new titan and the 1070 to be like a 980. I was very wrong
