Geforce Pascal Review thread

Added a few conclusions for those that are at work and can't access them and also added TechPowerUps 1440P results in games, as 1440P is the gaming sweetspot and that is what I use :p
 
Interesting card, poor price.. But it's NVidia so people will lap them up.. :(

@ £620 for what is effectively a mid-range card is just lol.. I appreciate the engineering and the effort that goes into producing graphics chips, but for the mainstream they are pricing themselves out of the market. @£620 it's just too much, borderline taking the ****.

Well, guess the over £1K single GPU Titan and a fat 980 at £780-£800 is finally going to happen :p

And remember, this is not the enthusiast SKU, that'll be a GTX 1080 Ti / Titan like product and listen closely... the GTX 980 Ti (enthusiast class) started at 699 USD when released, the same price that Nvidia now launches their Founders Edition at.

It's :cool: though Nv done it-with a **** cooler too-so it's a win.:p

Has anyone seen a review with 1080 SLi Benchmarks in yet? perhaps I missed it

I am going through the reviews slowly and if I find one, it will be put on the front page. I expect there to be one or two coming, so shouldn't be long if there isn't any already.
 
Where is people getting £6xx from? Shouldnt be anywhere near that really. More like £550 max id have thought and £350 max for a 1070.

It's base on the $699 pricing for the "glorified reference edition" 1080.

Anyone hoping to get 1080 at £550, they'd most likely have to wait a month+ for custom cards. People that are planning on going watercooling though...they still gonna have to pay the premium for the reference card, which is ridiculous, as they have to pay the extra for the cooler that they ain't gonna use.
 
£619 makes no sense unless the £ recently plummeted against the $ and it's been kept a national secret, that's nearly a 40% price hike when vat only accounts for 20%.
 
So much for the card being super cool. Seems NVIDIA was Cherry picking at the event, otherwise it wouldn't be possible to hit 2Ghz at 67 degrees.

At load the card always seems to be at the normal 80+ for temps under load.

I imagine this will be a popular card and the likes of EK will bring out blocks for EVGA/MSI/Asus non ref cards, so not true on that part.
 
That'll be premium on top of premium, where does it end?

If you don't buy Asus from here your warranty is up **** kreek too, Msi's got a warranty sticker too and it depends where you read whether your warranty is void on that one too.
