** The Official Nvidia GeForce 'Pascal' Thread - for general gossip and discussions **

I thought tomorrow was just a Paper launch, with the cards coming sometime June, onwards ?

Yup, they just want to beat 'the competition' to the punch

Guys I'm confused with this order of 10 the clock will hit zero tomorrow at 6pm, I thought that's when we were supposed to hear news on Pascal though on the nvidia website it states saturday 2am or are there to be 2 separate events?

I think it will be a closed press only event at 8pm our UK time (that is when the countdown ends) and then a streamed launch event latter that day, 2AM Saturday morning.

Got to be more to it than that. If the clock finishes counting down and it just says join us later on twitch, that would be an anticlimax and lame.

It does seem a bit strange, but that is what it looks like.

6pm you mean

my bad.

 

[D.P.]

6pm PST is 2AM GMT.

It is possible that the website is only using local time and not PST correctly

Countdown is running in realtime so 6pm in England

Lots more pictures of places on the countdown site now (compared to 3 last time I looked).

MeH.

I can't think Nvidia will have anything to sell before AMD.

Then again the performance parts from both aren't due for 6+months so I don't care

Shiny new tech bro. Nothing stopping you from selling and moving up in 6 months time, double the excitement

 

[IT Troll]

who ever came up with this polygone design should be fired

New cooler design is perfect for my windowless case.

Hah! Someone else called it. It looks like Kryten.

These will be the performance parts until 2017.

As my math is shocking, stock 1080 V stock 980Ti = how much performance difference please guys?

Money is stopping me, and wanting to go single GPU on 4k.

Looking to be 20% ish, but wait on reviews m8. Won't be long I should imagine

I might be tempted by a pair of 1070's if they perform like a Ti (and are about £300), 8GB and featureset upgrade...

Then I can get a pair of blocks for them in a few weeks

The price ive seen on different websites for the 1070 is between $449 - $499,thats £310 -£344 before vat.

Hope them prices are wrong.

I'm looking to do same with 1080 SLI slightly more performance then a 980Ti in SLI and more VRAM. Should be far better then my 970 at present will be first cards I watercool as well.

Expecting 1080 to be around £450-500 mark will be surprising if they more than that.

 

[JediFragger]

Tbf it sounds right if their's no competition from AMD. Hopefully when they release then it'll balance the pricing out
