Did some DOOM benchmarks today the highlight was:
4k
980Ti EVGA SC
1080 FE
Both stock clocks, though 980Ti is clocked out the box, still the 1080 was 50% quicker at 4k, 60fps for FE 1080 and 40fps for 980Ti SC.
I was shocked by how much quicker the 1080 is at QHD and UHD.
Then the Ti is going to be a 4k MONSTER
Then the Ti is going to be a 4k MONSTER
Doom runs sweet on a 970 at 2k

I think it's 2pm for everywhere as others have said. I know people working in brick-and-mortar stores who aren't allowed to take orders on the cards until 2pm tomorrow.
Was it mentioned that if we buy tomorrow we can get it delivered on Saturday? I am signed up to the "be notified" but not seen anything about it.

sounds silly really if someone just went into the shop and they deny a sale because you have to wait till 2pm is really really stupid imo

LOL, I was wide awake at 4 and awake since then.....but due to a throbbing ear because of an ear infection that's taking a time to clear up and then worrying whether to try to get a Dr's appointment today to check up on things before heading off 300 miles for the long weekend.
New graphic cards, nah, at the back of my mind
Shows you how well the founders "trick" has worked - we now think £560 is good when the dollar conversion from the non founder cards msrp should be pretty much exactly £500
Hilarious isn't it. Just over a week a go I remember people. Saying "it won't be over 500, it will be 450 to 500. I'm not paying more than 500."
Now the same people think partner boards at 550 are a great deal. (which they won't be). Clutching at little nvidia shaped straws.
most likely
I hope so Ive just ordered the EK Nickel alcatel full cover block and backplate
Nvidia's marketing have done an excellent trick in getting the sheep to think their 104 variant GPU is high end now.
Their marketing have also done a number on people with the FE to milk another 100$ from their mid tier 104 GPU.
Well done Nvidia!
