So who is actually going to buy a 1070 or 1080 ?

 

[Kaapstad]

Count me in for at least one GTX 1080

Reserved

 

[Safetytrousers]

A 1080 for me.

 

[eazyrider]

1070 most likely, but i'm going to see what AMD have first

 

[Random Guy Esq.]

Possibly a 1080, but depends on reviews and forumer's experiences etc, as well as news on other GPUs that we may hear before mid-June (when I'll be building).

I'm going to wait for you to tell us if they are any good, then get 3 if they are

Not until the "real" 1080 is released... the full-size chip.

 

[smilertoo]

I will wait for reviews of the 1070.

 

[Hiijinx]

Got my fingers crossed AMD magic something special up, but failing that - probably.

 

[Drojman]

Yes probably pick up one for now. A 1080 that is. Hopefully they aren't too limited stock.

the 1080 is the full sized chip, 1070 is the cutdown version, if you mean Ti and Titan, that would be a completely different chip in 2017 probably Q2

No it isn't... they're doing the same thing that they did with the last two generations because they're so far ahead of ATi/AMD.

GTX670/680 = mid-range / mobile version of GTX780Ti / Titan
GTX970/980 = mid-range / mobile version of GTX980Ti / Titan X
GTX1070/1080 = mid-range / mobile version of GTX1080Ti / Titan 1080

You can get a vague idea of the real full-size chip from the Tesla announcement:

Expect a 25-40% performance bump over the 1080 and 16GB memory for the new titan... probably 12 for the Ti.

See what AMD brings to the fold first and then I'll buy, seems to me that AMD is always best for price to performance so that is probably what I will get considering Freesync is well, free. Want to get the XF270HU but not sure what the QC will be like :/

 

[Evian]

Yep only have a 780 atm, but I want one with the other coolers from msi etc so not the reference versions.

Not sure if 1070 or 1080 yet.

 

[triss]

I'm tempted to replace my 780 with a 1070 but i will be waiting for reviews and AiB custom cards aswell as polaris specs

 

[Beren]

I'll be getting either a 1070 or next gen AMD. only running 1080p so if AMD can give me better than 390 / 970 performance for significantly less money I will probably go their way tbh.

 

[NirK]

Depends entirely on how fast it is.

 

[Gregster]

If the founders edition is binned chips, I will grab one of those but if not, I will grab a custom cooled card.

 

[Efour]

Have a 780 looking at 1070. But not sure it's worth it.
