No not really interested at the minute. I'll likely grab something in a year or two when we move out into a larger house. Spare bedroom will become VR/gaming room
True. I have quite a few thousand a month to play with (could easily buy 3-4 of these per month) but having trouble justifying a 2nd hand 6700 (non K) that’s so negotiated down in price, the seller may as well give it away for free at this stage. Never mind a card even the manufacturer appears to admit is overpriced.
Oh well, different strokes and all that. But it is funny watching people get their panties in a twist over something that don’t affect them in the slightest and then call it ‘opinions’. I think the definition of opinion and whining often gets confused.

1070 clocks aswell
Does clock well but max OC Titan to Max OC 1080 is only around 20%.
More heat and power yeah but no one really cares for that stuff

To be honest 980Ti SLI was and still is a perfect SLI setup. Bargain price now at >250-300 for a second hand card.
Every single AAA title played them bang on at 95-99% utilisation on each card. Was getting a very close 80-90% increase over single card in the vast majority of games.
Loved my Ti's and it was a hard choice to sell them.
Probably will be buying two GTX 1080Ti's if the pricing is right and IF they are actually produced
980ti's are still amazing, I have 2 running at 1490 and they are great. Still buying a Pascal Titan, for no other reason besides the fact that as of 2 August it is the fastest single card solution. Will something with a better price/performance ratio be out soon? Of course. Does that deter me from buying? Not in the slightest. Is it good value for money? Nopers. Is value for money important to me? Nopers.
My SLI scaling in the games I play has been great barring one title. 980ti's are HOF worthy imo
GPU thread (not related to your post) has become so bitchy, can we get back to the palpable excitement for new stuff please and stop whining about value? Some of us don't care, we buy stuff because we want it, the value proposition is a moot point.
I am just super exited about new stuff, don't give two hoots about value.

I'm considering purchasing a second 980ti, so it's nice to read what you have written. Pascal Titan X just doesn't make sense to me. Likewise I can afford it, but to me the 'value proposition' is not a moot point.

Probably wont see them before they wake up in California.

Anyone know if there is a review embargo and when it's due to be lifted? As much as this sounds cool not going to blindly drop money

There probably is one and going by previous releases I'd expect it to be lifted between 13:00 and 15:00 BST.

I wonder if they'll be a 'shortage' on these at launch.
Tempted but need to see some benchmarks before I drop some serious money on it.

Could launch without reviews, won't be the first time the Titans launched without reviews iirc, might have to wait for reviewers to source one first.
Given the lack of rumors and hype, I'm guessing nobody has one of these right now and there wont be any reviews tomorrow.

Does feel strangely 'rushed' for nVidia tbh. Wonder if they know something that we don't....

For the sort of money Nvidia want they should have made it Hybrid liquid cooled from the start.
He gave 10 out to the students in a seat lottery at the launch. Really surprised none of them have been reviewed/sold to the highest bidder.

Probably had to sign something stating they wouldnt release benchmarks and wouldn't be able to sell it on until after the launch.

I think reviewers have it in their hands like the link in the thread. Hope they do a review soon..
People think it is rushed that Nvidia is launching Titan X (Pascal)?
No it is not. They know AMD current situation. AMD has layoff so many western employees and they hiring cheap Chinese engineers to develop Vega. I am pretty much sure by time AMD launches Titan X (pascal) Competitor then Nvidia will be almost ready with Volta.
