Some stating 'Expecting stock 30th June' if you look around.
Bit of wait if you want one and 480 nda will have lifted by then, could be a shift in pricing but wouldn't hold my breath

They can say what they like....
They can say the 17th if it gets pre-orders in...
The whole Pascal release has been an utter joke.
They have far exceeded my price expectations this round (for the worst) but clearly they are priced at a value people are willing to pay, as they are flying off the shelves.
I will be getting Pascal cards but I am going to wait until around about august so I can get the performance I want at a more reasonable price.![]()
Yer, even with the gouging, the 1080 is too pricey for my liking. I felt the 1070 non FE card was a fair price though but some proper gouging going on with that card at the mo.
The sad thing is that all of the negativity surrounding the launch of the 1080\1070 is solely down to Nvidia.
Fact is they have released 2 really good cards that have received very positive ratings from reviewers, but in their rush to get the product out before stocks are at a decent level, and in setting such ridiculous prices, they have shot themselves in the foot, alienated a lot of people and given AMD a massive chance to regain market share.
Another thing that springs to mind is all the people who rushed to sell their 980 Ti and TitanXs before the 1080 launch in case the Maxwell cards dropped in value a lot. This was probably a mistake as all that has happened is any money that was saved by a quick Maxwell sale is lost again by the Pascal price gouging.
Even worse is with the ex Maxwell owners now needing a new card quick, they have inadvertently made the Pascal price gouging worse.
1070 owners can you report back with ASIC quality and max boost clock, thanks.
