When the 980Ti replacement coming out ?

chaparral · 6 Mar 2016 at 16:01

Does anyone know when NVidia is going to be releasing the 980Ti replacement GPU as I want to upgrade from my 780Ti's.

And I don't want pay out hundreds for 2 980tI GPU'S to see there replacement released a few weeks later..

Summerish. Keep hold of your dough

Next year, most likely. NVIDIA will be late this time. Looks increasingly likely that AMD's whole lineup will be out in summer.

Also, at 2560x1440, you can get 2 x Nanos for £400 less and about the same performance and way less noise.

The GTX 980 replacement is rumoured to be coming out a few months after GTC 2016 in April, so that puts the release date at some point between summer and autumn this year. The 980Ti replacement will likely be out at some point next year.

No one here knows.

Thanks Guys

I like stick with Nvidia,plus my monitor supports G-sync...

Wont see a 980Ti replacement until H2 2016 Q1 2017 IMO.

You might see a faster/more efficient card some time this year but it will be marginal.

No point tbh. The new cards going to be far superior, making the current gen obsolete.
Do not forget we will get DP1.3, HDR etc.

yes i guess replacement of 970/980 then Titan then Ti

This is not going to happen and has not happened for a very, very long time.

Personally i would be amazed if we see any TI models this year, My guess is there will be a 970/980 replacement later this year that will be 980ti performance +-10% then the TI models making an appearance early 2017 maybe in time for Xmas if Nvidia have their buts in gear but as much as im itching to upgrade my 980ti i just really dont see it happening this year tbh.

Not a chance in hell my friend, to do that cards will need to be 50-60+% more powerful at a minimum to make cards like a 980ti obsolete lol, as much as it would be amazing its never going to happen. Current gen cards are going to be good for a number of years yet.

and not all are getting HDR, might just be the Titan or whatever the top card is.

Late summer for the first Pascals. Next year for the Titan / Ti versions. Roughly anyway.

I see a lot of people on the internet say, "Don't get a 980 Ti now it's a waste of money, Pascal is nearly here!". But that isn't really true. Not if you want a 'proper' version.

Last summer for the first Pascals? They kept that quiet.

Yep.

Pascal, HBM2, 14/16nm, double the transistors = massive performance gain over Maxwell.

Except, that's unlikely. New process will not bring full fat cards out on launch day.

That will only be with the full fat cards which we will be unlikely to see until next year.

This year it will be cheap to make mid range Polaris/Pascal cards that the vendors will milk their customers with for very little performance increase over Fiji/Maxwell.

As shocking as it sounds from AMD and NVidias point of view it makes excellent business sense.

Yeah AFAIK 16GB HBM2 isn't available until the end of the year and Hynix 8GB supposedly isn't available until around Oct. Only Samsung is likely to have 8GB anything like "soon". Which kind of puts some limits on what we can expect.

Yes of course I was referring to the full fat cards. These will be the ones getting almost/more than double the transistors etc of current cards.

No-one apart from NVIDIA/AMD know when they will release. Could be this year, could be next year. I think we'll see both vendor's very best this year, however. As soon as one releases theirs, the other vendor simply has to follow suit etc.

We'll have to wait and see

Anyone throwing dates around are talking out of their arse, no one but nvidia know when nvidia are going to release their new cards at the moment until they make any announcements.
