Should just be under Titan on average but better than it in some scenarios and some titles. As is always the way with gfx cards with comparable performance. Be interesting to see what that extra memory bandwidth of the X model can do over the gddr5 chips.

GDDR5 was an incredible advancement in memory chips/bandwidth, I imagine this will be just as impressive.

Shame they couldn't get it on a smaller process as they look to be power sponges.

But slower than a Titan X overall. I just don't see how it can beat the TX, unless it's priced very close, in which case I don't care. Cards above £600 are not worth my interest. So in between the 980 and TX, but the big question is the price.

If the price to performance is the same as a 980, then I don't care. If it's better, then we're talking. Best case scenario it competes with a 980 at its price point. Also this thread is effectively a extension of the 390x speculation thread. But lets go wild with speculation!
 
Don't care, the shocking state of current ATI drivers/support means my next card will be Nvidia

I must admit, the above is a common issue I have read by people using AMD cards. I will be upgrading soon, but feel inclined to try and stick with Nvidia. If AMD want my money, they will need to release a good GPU and really come out and talk about how they will work harder on drivers and general support.
 
It's generally viewed as the same quality as nVidia for single-card situations, the complaints are primarily around the speed of crossfirex profiles getting released and I think some other crossfirex specific issues (I run single card so no issues)
 
The continued criticism of AMD's drivers is not entirely fair.

The drivers themselves are good. It's the delayed release of Crossfire profiles that is frustrating people.
 
I think it will be faster than TX .
Nv movement seems preemptive...trying to sell as much 970/980 as they can before AMD release. Bringing up Ti and Metal cards in case the amd cards are faster.
 
My guess, 20% faster than a 980, (except in one or two situations where it'll compete with a titan x, this will cause people to say it compete's generally when it clearly doesn't) noisy and hot on air, won't have free-sync working with multi gpu on release and cost's £499-£549.
 
Had a dream the other day that it was around 20% faster than the Titan X and came in around £450, probably wont be anywhere near that but hey you can dream :D
