Right so rather selfishly I have started a thread to solve a dilemma of mine. I've been bleating on for a while in the forums about what GPU / Monitor options are best suited for me.
I am dead set on going 4K and Gsync, so I have limited options anyway. The 970 stuff has further knackered my options being that I was 100% decided on 2x970 HOFs in SLI however this isn't going to cut it now with the VRAM turd. So I'm now looking at a 980.
I am currently modding my case with a new paint job etc and waiting for the paint to cure, so I'm telling myself, forcing myself, convincing myself I'm in no hurry with this... But, I just want to get building my rig.
So, do-eth anyone-eth haveth any information / rumours / speculation on Nvids movements over the next couple of months. I've been following deals on OCuk and almost splurged on the Galax 980 SOC with the Acer Predator 4k monitor. However, stocks of 980s seem to be thinning out (being that the SOC isn't available now), Titans have been taken off site listings, and the general price of 980s are going up it seems.
I'm tempted to wait for a couple munfs and spend if and when something new comes along - however despite regular news searches there isn't much coming out of the rumour mill regarding future Nvidia products. As such my thinking is the 980s will stay at this price for a while, unless Nvidia drop prices to counter any incoming new AMD products.
Thoughts? Speculation? NDC breaking hard facts from an unknown source that'll blow all of our minds?
