[Purgatory]

I'm getting my 980 ti back.

I'm putting it under water and overclocking it and waiting for 1080ti.

 

[Greebo]

Not everyone wants to game at 4K
What's the best for folding?
1080gtx
Titan z
Titan x Sli
980 Ti Sli

Or some AMD non gaming card??
That still lets you game with high settings at 1080?

1080 is tops at folding. One of the reviews had a folding comparison but I cant find it atm

 

[IvanDobskey]

Only because we keep getting the mid range first. In the good old days the top end came out and was priced as such. Does it now make it right to price the mid range at top end prices because they changed how they launched products.

We have a winner. Spot on.

Stop trolling, it is getting very tiresome dealing with this ignirant rubbish.

Nvidia are not oxide developers.

Seeing that poor ASYNC is the reason I am not buying one of these GPU's.

Spending this much cash you should expect DX12 future proofed gaming.

I will probably buy two Polaris and crossfire. It's been a while and two will be around 60% faster than a single 1080 at the same price (in ASYNCed games of which more are on there way).

 

[IvanDobskey]

Would anyone like to take a guess how much a 1080 ti will be?

I'll make a good guess at £700.

 

[TheRealDeal]

Nope, but I think they've got a better bodge than the 900-series

I know that 1080 is Async software only but it has so much grunt it can get away with it but Im sure I read in one review that even in DX12 Async games the 1080 is still miles ahead of the Furyx.

Do you expect this to change and AMD to get quicker and quicker in DX12 games with Polaris when its tabled as a cheap low/middle card?

When the 1080 outstrips the FuryX by so much in a DX12 Aysnc game, you honestly think Polaris is going to give 80-90% of the performance of the 1080? This would make it quicker than a Furyx.

If so i might just wait until Polaris is out, being a Yorkshireman I like to get value for money

It will be very impressive if AMD can bring out a £250 card with is quicker than their previous top end card and a real shame that AMD seems to be dropping high end cardxs from the range as they could have smashed the 1080 family.

AM|D hasnt pulled this trick off since the 4850 though.

No bud, it deals with ACE differently to AMD but it is done hardware side. It, for the most part isn't the perfect solution but it works fine non the less. There is a few who seem to keep saying this and that without bothering to read up and if they did, they would learn a bit more as well and help themselves when recommending this and that.

 

[easyrider]

Looks like I'm not getting my 980ti back after all...

 

[Mei]

o how come?
....some1 had to ask

Thats not what I been reading, sure its a good card but when you see a few procent difference in several games you ask whats the value then?
add the objective view we dont find that nvidia advanced that much but are able to charge a entusiast (founders) price for a replaced 980.

Value is really important for a lot of gamers.
anyone with a 980 are a customer group for the 1080 not the 980ti or tx group.

I have studied ASYNC and for NVIDIA to even call there implementation Asynchronous is a lie as that infers compute tasks are able to execute in Parallel and without hardware they cannot do so. Its concurrent, no more.

AMD have as long as it takes for Nvidia to launch a new arch with Async hardware (18 months approx?) to capitalise on their ASYNC DX12 performance and claw back market share. By all accounts they AMD are hinting havily that is what they plan to do.


The Nvidia 1000 series is really overpriced considering it can't handle DX12 games too well.

 

[Kali81]

My 980ti will do 1550+ (1605 in doom for testing). I'm gonna wait for the 1080ti, I'm only bought it in Jan

Nv's mysterious AS bubble blowing solution, who'd have thought bubbles would get so much fun via software.

http://videocardz.com/60163/nvidia-...-gtx-1070-specifications-and-first-benchmarks

So it looks roughly GTX980TI level performance:

http://tpucdn.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_1080/images/perfrel_2560_1440.png

£449 and £259? Almost spat out my tea.

No chance.

That is the non Founder Edition price if you do not add VAT.

At stock that's what I am expecting. Overclocked I think the gtx980ti will pull ahead.

Sorry but what FUD. Have a read here.

Get yourself a bit clued up and then we can chat. I do consider the 1080 to be overpriced as well but not for the reasons you state, but because it is a smaller chip and there will be the bigger chips to come.

 

[Mei]

does any1 else want to punch the person that makes nvidia slides right in the face?
i think i might not be very nice

 

[Jono8]

Possibly, although I think we should wait until we get reviews of custom boards with better coolers and the extra power connector before judging the overclocking ability of the 1000 series.

On the plus side the 1070 series should start at ~£300+ which will be quite nice for ~980ti performance.

 

[Mei]

jono is always optimistic with his prices so im saying 350+ ^^;
