EBay and MM will be seeing a lot of 980 Ti
Might be worth one of these and r5 1600 and ITX for a cheap console build
Hopefully the 980 to will drop to sub 200 now used
275 for a used 980ti was a joke considering 1070 prices

Normally when I do a GPU overhaul I SLI them from out of the box. £1400 to £1500 for these it seems

I don't buy Graphics cards and worry about how much I will lose. I buy for fun and that is that
The monitor is the most important part of any rig
I can personally see the 1080's not getting there 100 dollar price drop for some time (retailers will argue supply and demand as always) and i can seem them selling the new 1080 ti at 700 pounds as well "insert reason's" and then 100-300 pounds ontop for the custom variant's.
Gpu's from nvidia are starting to get to a point were they are too expensive for the average pc consumer.
You can build a pretty good full rig for 700-1000 pounds.

I'm not selling my 1080, no way. It's a beast of a card. I'll wait for volta.
Then get a super wide thenI don't buy Graphics cards and worry about how much I will lose. I buy for fun and that is that

Then get a super wide then

No need to be confused.Then get a super wide then
You can justify 700 plus on a 1080 ti you say you don't need but can't face 1k on a super wide ?
Don't get your logic
Caporegime
Fair point and I wouldn't blame anyone for not going from a 1080 to a Ti but the lure of shiny has me gripped. It took all my will power to not go for the TXP and I did say that I would wait it out for the Ti but then again, I have said lots of things
Caporegime
What logic don't you get? I am happy with my Swift but would like a super wide but not to the point of spending £1000 on one. I also am happy with my 1080 but CAN justify paying £700 for a new GPU. That's it!
Well it's wrong
The biggest upgrade for you would be keep your 1080 sell the swift and go super wide 34"

LOL. No!Well it's wrong

Does anyone know the performance of this thing? Is it faster or slower than Titan XP? I noticed it had the same number of Cuda cores, boost clock is almost the same and slightly better memory bandwidth. But can it do 4k60 out the box without overclocking?
Similarly. Except I'm still waiting for Vega + benchmarks before buying anything. You can sure as hell bet that custom-cooled cards won't be around for a while at stock levels decent enough to order anytime soon. So waiting man's game is the way to go.
£750 sounds overpriced to me though. Considering the dollar price, I think it'll be £800 for the good AIB cards at least.
Regardless of whatever happens, we still get shafted. The value of the GBP is at a point where dollar prices should be roughly 1:1 with our GBP prices including tax. Yet, we still pay more now. An $800 Dell Inspiron 15 2017 costs over £1k here, same specs and all.
Which is why I think the ti will be £800+ for good custom coolers for us. Also remember that Nvidia pulled their disgusting prices shortly before the whole drop in GBP happened. Either they have people who can predict the future, or they are abusing their lack of competition.
Pretty much. Vega is our last hope, but only in the best case scenario. AKA, we're doomed. Got me wondering why AMD said jack about Vega at their event yesterday? Are they scrambling to ready something to counter a 1080ti, which they possibly didn't expect. I just want them to end this nonsense with price/performance that Nvidia is getting away with right now.

NVidia's charts put the 1080Ti at 35% faster than the 1080, which is also 5% faster than a TXP. Wait for neutral reviewers to test (I will also be doing the same against my 1080) and that will show exactly what is what but genuinely happy to pay that price personally. Gigabyte or MSI for me will do nicely.
Ah, that's good to hear. I thought I recall you saying you was done with it.
