EDIT : knew that title sounded familiar , seen it here before AFAIR.

Is this legit? May be worth waiting..

Hmm total lack of ability to wait for new tech may prove this difficult...

980 8gb model coming before end of year too looks like.

I'm waiting for sure now.

More 'Boom bargains' in the MM soon.

Then I need to get some more posts.

Shame it is still 28nm.

That was posted on August 17th so in theory it should be out this time next month

That's just an old rumour that's already been posted a while back.

From logic and business point of view, it would make far more sense for Nvidia to milk the skinny Maxwell for the time being, and leave the launch of fat Maxwell till after MS launching dx12.

They wouldn't release the Titan 2 so quickly right after the 980, as they would want people to that upgraded to 980 to upgrade to Titan 2 as well!

Like I said said on the other thread before it got removed, Nvidia will most probably release the Titan 2 under the big flying label FULL dx12 support (not the partial dx12 support people getting with the 970/980), and temp Nvidia users (those that can afford) to buy them regardless of if they already got 780/980 etc.

I thought the 980s had full dx12??

Well since dx 12 isn't out until wins 9 it's a partial dx 12 not full. I'm sure a driver or a bios upgrade could make it make it full dx 12

MS won't finalize the spec until... next year sometime? End of next year they said the first games will come but the actual DX12 will probably be available with Win9. It's possible it could be left out of the initial release though.

the spec must be pretty much done even if the actual implementation isn't - games take more than 1 year to develop (typically 2-3) so if they are saying games by end of next year then those games must be in development already, even if they are doing an AMD-like "3 months to add DX12 support", they must already have games in the pipeline who have signed up to DX12 to have any confidence in meeting that deadline

 

[Orangey]

Well, let's hope.

DX12 is not out yet.

 

[LegendaryDread]

DX12 is not out yet.

Implying that hardware won't be DX12-ready until end-users have it on their systems.

There is a difference between "compatible" and "fully compatible".

I guess you are not up to speed regarding the info on dx12.

 

[Freddie1980]

Titan II? Set wallets to vaporise!

 

[LegendaryDread]

Do one. I'm as up to speed as anyone else.

These will be silly prices on release, so I'm not even going to bother getting excited
