**Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Thread**

Heavily hinting that there is something in the pipeline. Dunno if a 1080Ti would be faster than Pascal Titan like the previous gen cards were. Would Nvidia let that happen yet again?

Two months old speculation? Expected new info.

Some info online but not a lot yet . I figured it would be a decent time to start a thread.

A 1080Ti would ***** my interest to get it and a new screen to go 4k for the first time.

If the pascal titan is a good 4k card then the Ti, if it's same scenario as previous gen where the Ti beats the titan, then the 1080Ti will indeed be a 4k60 card

Cards now seem designed for playing different resolutions rather than playing the actual games themselves.

Can we merge these threads then mods?

If there is to be a 1080Ti in the pipeline, what is it going up against from AMD? Surely they won't have anything that will even get close to a Ti performance?

Depending on cost, a decent upgrade for me would be the 1080Ti, but then I'd have to get a new monitor too...decisions decisions

 

[subbytna]

probably a spoof but saw it and posted it up anyway

Tip: Take out the code after the v= part of the YouTube link and put it in

You need clockspeed as well as bandwidth.

I suspect HBM2 will have a hard time trying to beat GDDR5X based cards with a 384bit bus and memory clockspeeds that will be even faster than the current Pascal cards.

Isn't HMB2 the next big thing in memory?

Perhaps I need to go read up on what's in the pipeline technology wise.

Just been looking and still nothing solid online, info wise. Anyone else seen anything to add regarding the 1080Ti?

 

[subbytna]

Is volta a step up from the 10** series though?

 

[subbytna]

Hope this works. Anyone seen this? https://www.facebook.com/maximumpc/posts/10154559484528885

click baiting or any truth?

But need both players in the market to get a reasonable price.

That will never happen as both companies have mugs that will rush out and buy the latest card no matter what price it is. If we stop buying at launch and wait a bit longer they will have no option but to reduce prices.

I can see the 1080 Ti launching at £700 for the FE which is the most I will pay then again I doubt I'll get one knowing it's a cut down chip to replace my Ti's in sli

Given the 1080's are almost 700 now I can see the Ti's going for £899 - inbetween the 1080 and titan pricing.

If this card comes out january i get the feeling it will have one of the shortest shelf lifes in history.

I'd have to agree. It'll be no time before the 11** series is out. I'll bet my bottom dollar though that there won't will be much of an improvement over the 10**series...10% at most. Unless AMD's offering is decent, Nvidia will shaft us for a long time to come.

To be fair a 1080Ti card will be plenty for most people....people that can afford to buy it in the first place though (It'll cost the bloody earth I bet)

Lets be realistic here. The 1080Ti aint guna be no where near the price of the 980Ti. The Titan X (P) is £1099 ($1200) so realistically its going to be around £800 probably on the higher end of £800 on release.

980Ti on release was $649 and in the UK you could get one around £560? however the 1080 was $599 on release which is a measly $50 difference. Im guessing the 1080Ti is going to be around $849 on release. There is almost certainly going to be a £200 quid difference between the 980Ti and 1080Ti on release prices in the UK. That just a massive difference but its okay because it will be faster lol.




Titan X $1200 (£1099)
1080 $649 (£619)
1070 $449 (£399)

My assumption 1080Ti is going to be $849 to $900 (£809 to £859)

I'm calling the Ti to be £899 - Basically £900 but without the mental £900 barrier being broken. Classic shopping tactic to get you to buy.

I was planning on buying a 1080Ti when they were released but now I'm starting to think it might be a better idea to wait until the next generation of GPUs comes out. I mean my 980Ti still seems to cope well with the games I play at 1440p so why the rush to upgrade? I don't think I've found a game that struggles on my 980Ti but then again most of the games I play are more CPU heavy than GPU heavy. I can stream Elder Scrolls Online with max graphics quite easily.

Maybe one of these days I'll upgrade to a 4k monitor and if I do that I'll certainly need an upgrade then but I don't see that happening for a few years.

Yeah I can't say I'm going to shift from 980ti to a 1080ti myself, might wait until 1180...then buy a 1080ti

 

[subbytna]

I'm waiting, I know replacing my 980Ti's would be silly - or is it that's what I'm trying to tell my self.

Surely SLI 980ti is still MASSIVE grunt for gaming? Why would you change that? You looking a single card? I think SLI 980Ti would probably still beat a 1080Ti...I could be wrong though

 

[subbytna]

Post up what you think the 1080Ti will cost and your reasons for it

I think £899

a: The usual marketing trap of basically being 900 quid but because the price starts with the 8, then you think it's cheaper even though it's only a quid. Classic sales trick

b: Nvidia tax on GPUs. They always charge a premium and if the 1080 is 600 or 700 odd quid and the Titan P is 1100 then they will hit the middle of those price brackets.

 

[subbytna]

No 1080 Ti

I'm guessing vega is slower...

You're probably right
