Graphics cards are getting far too "blingy" IMO

I like the light on the MSI Gaming Edition cards, much more subtle.

I think I'm going to wait until MSI reveal their 1080 at Computex. I understand it's subjective but all these cards look terrible.

Give me a black/red Twin Frozr any day of the week. .

Agree with you on the looks of the 1080's thus far not looking good

Yes interested what the msi will look like?

Doesn't beat it then.

Interesting ...Like how they say
"as Founders Edition is currently locked at 112% TDP for no particular reason."

Well wouldn't the reason being that the nvidia's FE 1070 is gimped on a hardware level re vrm's ect hence the power limit ?...

Custom editions arround £100 cheaper than FE editions so im told

Errr no. That won't happen. If there's a 1080 £100 cheaper... that's £515, I will buy everyone on these forums one. Will. Not. Happen.

I`ll hold you to that

 

[D.P.]

Almost on par can mean slightly fatser, which is exactly what we would expect and what the leaked benchmarks show. Either way the difference is meaningless.

I'm hoping the power limit is not in place to purposely widen the gap with 1080. The 1070 should clock like a champ.

w00t!!

Oh boy...

*wonders if gibbo will have 10 special edition cards for £515 in about an hours time*

Reference design, cheap cooler, slightly overclocked bios.

Can see this pic compared to the 1080 has a extra VRM and extra mosfets missing. The power delivery looks gimped on the 1070, i wouldn't hold hope of this being what people are expecting it to be. Which is being a 980Ti beater. Unless you get AIB that have custom PCB with a non gimped power delivery.

You know just because you say it doesn't make it come true. Right? Right???

would be bloody funny though

 

[Jono8]

Unfortunately, even if there is a 1080 around the £515 mark, i do not think for one minute think he will buy everyone one

 

[moogle]

What difference does the 1 power connector make? Can't overclock it much?
