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

me personally I don't think its worth upgrading to a 1080 if you have a 980ti as there is not much difference just a few more fps.
I will just sit and wait for a cheep 980ti on mm and go for that.

 

[humbug]

if the 1080 can only manage overclocked 980TI performance where does that leave the much smaller 1070? overclocked 980?

Urrrrrrrrrrggggghhhhh, filthy console peasants......

my boyfriend plays on console and i try get him buy the games on pc...
i dont think i could call him that tho lol

Can someone sum up everything since ~4am?

Every time reviews hit there's like 20 new pages to sift through.

The situation seems to be similar to the 780Ti to 980 'upgrade',
depending on the software and overclock used it can show varying difference, as low as 10%

also prices are too high

Probably, but tbf a VERY well overclocked 980 almost reached Ti performance anyhow. Well, my eVGA's did

God I loved those cards...

It seems the only game Fury X is as good or a little better than 1080 at 4K is Hitman.

I wonder what tech that game uses that The Fury X does so well in it?

 

[JediFragger]

I'm *really* disappointed in the 1080 if I'm honest. Effectively 2 node shrinks and this is the best they can do!!??? I think they're giving us *just* enough to keep us happy tbh

I'm eager to know. Have none of the review sited got the 1070?

I don't know, but I hope it continues!! nV need the competition to keep them honest imo.

edit - It will sure be interesting to compare the FuryX and 1080 in a year's time when DX12 is in full swing!!!

Be that as it may at over £400 initialy and £350 eventually colour me unimpressed.

Nope, and no news as yet when

2nd gen Maxwell is pretty stripped out and optimised for DX11 rendering - with Pascal they will have had to undo some of that (which IMO means the delta between the 980ti and 1080 will widen with future titles) the 1080 is a replacement really for the 980 rather than 980ti tier wise though it is the 680 all over again (plus nVidia pushing the pricing).

Can i ask do you think there will be another nvidia card released in time foe BF1 or will it just be 1080s still?

there's the 1070 next month!

''But at roughly 80 degrees C and at that level the noise levels are okay really. In idle you can barely hear the cooling solution and under stress, well you can hear some airflow and that's it.''

Yeah I appreciate that. My comment was in reference to the comments regarding an overclock of 2.1Ghz maintaining a temp of ~67c

 

[Digital X]

1080 27th, 1070 June 10th, and god knows when the 1080ti is gonna come.

ppl will pay a lot for that extra 10-15% performance lol
i think ppl that actually play computer games should look at if it will help them rly...

Think it will only match reference Ti/Tx after its clocked,Ti/tx with decent over clocks will be a fair bit faster i'd imagine

I really don't see the 1070 wrecking the 980Ti as some said before, the 1080 is barely doing that to the factory OC'ed 980Ti's tbh.. Soo.. 980Ti between 1070/1080 perf?
