**Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Thread**

[Tommy_Here]

This is the problem no one is prepared to wait just to save £100 with Vega and get 1080 performance. With the price cut and 1080 Ti at 1080 price it makes Vega DOA unless it's 1080 performance for £400

Nah, I'm jumping ship. Sick of waiting and limping on these 5870's. Haven't had an NVIDIA since 2006.

 

[Things change I've changed]

I wasn't far out it seems, in fact I may of been right on the money
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

£699 (For the most basic edition), people are placing to much emphasis on the current price of the 1080's, I believe the 1080Ti will replace the 1080's like the 980Ti replaced the 980's but at a slightly higher price.

Your having a laugh at £699. It will (imho) be more then that, but we should seen soon enough.

I know people are expecting a lot higher but I'm banking in it replacing the 1080 and if that is the case I can't see them pricing people out of the market.

The 980 was a 4GB card and the 980ti a 6GB Card

The 1080 is an 8GB card and so will be the 1080 TI

Its a different scenario altogether.

699 for a TI?

yep right!

I think you're being EXTREMELY optimistic there! They priced a lot of people out the market with the 1080 lol! I thoroughly expect the 1080Ti to be a £750-800+ card. Only if VEGA comes in as a serious rival at a much lower price will this change.

if its out next week when do we start seeing benchmarks? did they give any eta on them?

If you've been waiting that long surely a month or two won't make a massive difference?

No at least 3 months to see similar performance of GTX 1080 at same price.

 

[Doug2507]

It'll be interesting to see what happens with DX12 now NV are fully on board. Maybe a blessing in disguise for Ryzen...?

 

[Gregster]

$699, next week. Nice, I'm getting one.

Count me in but will wait for custom cards

 

[Doug2507]

If NV have gimped this like they did with 1080 then no point on custom unless running on air.

Hopefully find out sooner rather than later.

It was not question how but it was when. Nvidia is the market leader and when they decide that means it is the stamp of authority.

I Just got a 1070 from EVGA 2 weeks ago, I would like to step up to a 1080 do you think there 1080's will drop in price?

 

[Disco_P]

Reading some of stories the only conclusion I can think of is that nvidia got so bored of waiting for the competition to make a high end product (when was the 7970 released? ) that they decided to compete with themselves.

 

[Simon Belmont]

Yes this new card is fast, but 1080 is already an overkill for many? I'm not hurting at all for more performance.

 

[stooeh]

I am surprised that he said will be available next week given there have been like no accurate leaks of the specs. Definitely tempted to pick one up and replace my 970 SLI.

 

[Random Guy Esq.]

No Founder's Edition tax this time. And a supposedly improved stock cooler. Could make it a viable choice for use in something like the DanCase - it would be a beast of a system in a tiny package.

 

[MooMoo444]

Wow, as powerful as the titan for half the price. I expect a flood of used 1080s

I may buy a Ti.

 

[stooeh]

'GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics cards, including the NVIDIA Founders Edition, will be available worldwide — across 238 countries and territories — from NVIDIA GeForce partners, including ASUS, EVGA, Gainward, Galaxy, Gigabyte, iGame, Innovision 3D, MSI, Palit, PNY and Zotac, starting March 10th at 10am. Prices, including those for the NVIDIA Founders Edition, start at $699. Pre-orders on the NVIDIA webstore begin March 2nd at 8am PT.'

I wonder when OCUK will be getting them in...

Yep, NV said the standard 1080 will take a price cut to $499 so that's £499.99 for us.

 

[XavierCastiel]

With the 1000 series which brand is supposed to be the best? I have always gone with Evga or Gigabyte in the past.

I am in a similar boat.

I have a 980 SLI setup, I am tempted to sell up and jump over, but I am not convinced at my resolution (2560 x 1080) if I would see any significant FPS increase (60 is fine for me). If I was gaming at 4k or 2k then yes it might be worth the jump.
