No Pre Order or Official UK Price on the GTX 1080

How much was the 980 REFERENCE card when it launched? That's what the price should be. plus a little for inflation (even though that is virtually non existent at the moment).

Although currently unavailable :rolleyes:

Guess that makes the non FE's around 520 then???

How can Nvidia make a claim of the quality of the FE if other venders will be making the FE card for NVidia, does NVidia Just provide the cooler?
 
I thought I was a special kind of idiot when I bought my TX but I knew I was getting the top card of that series.

You have to be a very special kind of idiot to spend north of £600 on a mid series reference card.

"Price Tag - Jessie J - ft. B.o.B

The GeForce GTX is cool, very cool. Value wise however I do feel you probably should wait and see how the GeForce GTX 1070 is going to perform, it'll get the same GPU with slightly less shader processors active and regular GDDR5 memory. Thing is that Nvidia keeps driving the prices upwards. Typically the high-end class product hovers at the 500 USD marker. Nvidia, when they released it, drove the GTX 980 to 549 USD. The GTX 1080 now starts at 599 USD with the reference Founders Edition at a massive 699 USD. For the Founders Edition, that's pretty bad pricing if you ask me.

World prices then (suggested MSRP for Founders edition):

Serbian Dinar RSD 96,900
Czech Koruna CZK 21,400
Danish Krone DKK 6,150
Germany EUR 789
France EUR 789
British Pound GBP 619
Hungarian Forint HUF 259,850
Norwegian Krone NOK 7,599
Polish Zloty PLN 3,599
Romanian New Lei RON 3,499
Russian Rouble RUB 54,990
Indian Rupee INR 63,250
Swedish Krona SEK 7,699
Turkish Lira TRY 2,850
South African Rand ZAR 13,599
Switzerland CHF 790
UAE AED 2,850
USA USD 699 "

Lol probably just "more money", I would (probably have actually) spend that much on a hobby. I spent £8000 once on a part built kit car, then proceeded to spend thousands on finishing it off - then just sold it ;-)
People can spend their money on what they want, regardless of physical attributes.
