It won't be that high, get real 
. The 1080 replacement wont cost much more than the 1080 did at launch IMO, at least FE anyway, so maybe £650 (think 1080 was £619?).
Without looking closely at the market, I suspect the $ may head down too. We need to get our act together with Brexit tho.

Nvidia do their own market analysis, they know exactly what prices to sell their GPUs, which makes it hilarious when people claim NVidia GPUS are over-priced. IF they were overpriced Nvidia would loose profits and be forced to lower prices. Fair prices are set by market demands.
You are spot on to the reply i was ready to give.
Don't let little things like FACTS get in the way of a good argument/discussion.
Not a single laptop claiming gsync has the module. They are all using the same open vesa tech used under different names as adaptive sync, freesync, edp vrr.
And I have a predator 15 which have explored
(and upgraded)
Almost seems to be a perverse badge of honour amongst some in this thread that they're actually willing to do that...

It's all about that showing of that epeen in a sig on an internet forum

Exactly. Some on here bought the £3,000 Titan Volta....
They probably end up having to eat beans on toast for the rest of the month or 2....
I'm having to avoid Costa and Starbucks for a couple of months, if I want to treat myself it's a latte and a butty from Greggs but you can't beat a Greggs so I still feel like I'm treating myself.
What's the issue with how people choose to spend their own money? Many who settle for lower spec cards could say the same about people who bought 1080Tis and even SLI.
Rather funny comment, on a forum where people spends thousands on computers to play games

Hilarious & fair? There's nothing hilarious or fair about current pricing, The current lack of competition and excuse of stock supplies allows them too see how far they can dig into the consumers wallet. The Titan V's a good example where they asked 3 times the price for a 30-40 percent performance increase over the big Pascal Titan, People are going to say "But the Titan V isn't for gaming" even though they've promoted the Titan branded cards as their ultimate gaming cards for the last 6 years & it's fully supported in the Game ready drivers, But of course it's not a gaming card, What it was is them dipping there toes in to see how far they can push things using the excuse that Mining and memory are to blame which they are to a point, but only to a point. I've said it before they're businesses and business is a cut throat occupation.
The TV was Nvidia testing the waters and along with AMD they're in the process of destroying the PC gaming market. Once it gets that bad I hope the mining craze grabs them and pulls them under with it when the Worlds Governments find a way to either tax or block virtual money making. I'm getting a PS4 pro soon and while I will still game on my PC I'm going to only get hardware that's good enough to game on, No more high end gpu's and hopefully there's enough of us with the common sense to do the same and let them feel the dent it'll make in the millions of profit they are currently making of our backs. They may be laughing it up now but once the markets flooded with secondhand gpu's what will they do then, They know it's coming which is why they tried to sell mining cards that wouldn't interest gamer's once they hit the secondhand market but unfortunately for them that didn't catch on.

You're right, How people spend their own money is no-one else's concern, except maybe that person's wife or husband.

And does any of that change what I posted?
This is what was said earlier, which you should know seeing as you posted it.
To which Roff replied.
And hence why I replied after quoting him.
So basically now we have come full circle and back to you telling us what we had already replied to, in the first place and it still doesn't change the fact that eDP VRR was the first tech that eventually gave birth to Vesa adaptive Sync, NVidia's G-Sync and AMD's FreeSync.
My wife thinks i buy all my parts secound hand for cheap. she has no idear how much i payed for my new i5 8600k new motherboard a 960 evo NVMe and my asus 1080ti strix which i thought was a good deal at £666 but i don't think she would see it as a good deal. Luckily for me she doesn't no a lot about computers and don't ask to many questions.You're right, How people spend their own money is no-one else's concern, except maybe that person's wife or husband.

Don't you earn your own money ?
Sounds like your not married, don't you know what's hers is hers and what's yours is hers also.
Theres not many married men who would be allowed to get a 1080ti at current prices. I can imagine the response when asking the wife would be something like NO WAY YOU COULD TAKE ME ON A CRUISE FOR THAT AMOUNT OF MONEYSounds like your not married, don't you know what's hers is hers and what's yours is hers also.
