If the 970 comes in under £300 and really does trade blows with the 290X, I would have thought that was the card for peeps to get until 20nm.

Google is your friend in this case 
Aye I might have to sit this one out. September/October are the 2 most expensive months of the year for me and I am drained
And in November they'll release 980 TI...

980TI and lokks like TITAN II as well.
Much later than that! I think it will be same timeframe between 780 and 780ti
ah good old Tanglefoot - it does exactly what it says on the tin!
you and me both...but i am stuck at around 330.00 so fingers crossed I can get the gtx 970 if it's as good as what we are seeing.

AMD will have to make their move first before you even get a hint of a 980Ti

Weird how the Galax 980 custom card has no backplate, yet the GTX 970 does, can't give a link because it's a pricing site for the whole of Europe sorry, no prices listed yet anyway lol.

Oh just a little footnote peeps, if you do get a 970/980 make sure you wrap it in a lead lined box because if these scientist chappies are more than 5-10% out in there estimations of this massive solar storm approaching I can see a lot of fried (and frustrated) people
Friday onwards ..... oooooo

No harm in sitting it out for a while and waiting for the dust to settle.
The Titans are still doing the damage at my end so i'm in no rush.

If that Chinese review is accurate, it finally looks like a GPU to replace my GTX690.

I did chuckle when AMD released the 290X to counter the Titan and straight away nVidia went Boooom, here is the 780Ti and ohhhh have a price cut on the 780
Any why have Glaxy chopped the Y off? Galax looks stoopid.

Review confirms $549 for the 980 and $329 for the 970 (non ref models).
Looking forward to getting a 980 at launch, chucking it in my little system and benching it in Surround.
Not sure to whether to stump up the obligatory extra for the EVGA "Titan" cooled model over one of the other blower designs though. I don't want a dual/triple fan design in my 250D.
