I wanna see Quantum break numbers. From what I can tell, that's the most demanding game on the market.
Are you okay? You seem to be having some sort of breakdown.
i recently got a great deal on a 980 Ti.... i admit it is bittersweet
but i'm glad nvidia is carrying over the price/perf of the 970. i was worried that card was an anamoly
980ti is still one of the more powerful cards in the market, it will serve you well for years to come.

Yeah, I raised an eyebrow at those AK benchmarks. No way in hell is my 960 getting 60fps. Not unless the GPU fairies showed up.

The numbers tally with what Nvidia have been saying i.e. it will outperform the 980ti/Titan X
Stock for stock that is. Depending on how the overclocks are, and the fact that literally nobody in the world runs a 980ti at true stock speeds, then any 980ti owner is likely to see comparable if not better performance in games than anyone using a 1070. I'm getting nigh on 1080 performance out of my overclocked 980ti.
Is supply on 1070/1080 cards going to be an issue, though? While there will undoubtedly be lots of people wanting to early adopt 'em, I think there's still going to be room for decent resale. Maybe not on 970s, but I think 980s will still be popular.
Yup I agree, that's why I think these numbers are too optimistic, I subscribed the best benchmarks for the 1080 on YouTube, I'll just wait for them to do their thing and adored tv to do their analysis.
Very powerful but not a great value. That is the point.
He got the card for cheap, so it IS great value.
For people who want to do 1440p @100+fps or 4K the 1080 is the way to go.

Maaan, I was going to hold out with my EVGA SSC 970 until I built a new PC in like 2018 but the temptation is strong here. I too might wait until Fall though when the game bundles start rolling out seeing as I ended up getting four games with my 970 which made the deal even better.
I "called it" back in like January or December but I don't feel the need to bring it up every other time I post in these topics.

That's what they said about the 780Ti.
Stop the trolling bro.

Yeah, I have my EVGA FTW 970 which has held up fine since I got it around November 2014. But getting a 1440p monitor last year has started to push it a bit in certain games so a 1070 is looking mighty tempting.
That said, I think you're right about the game bundles. At some point last year weren't they bundling MGSV and The Witcher with Nvidia cards? I could probably hold out a bit to see if they start bundling Battlefield 1 or Deus Ex with the 1070s or 1080s.

Will finally upgrade from my Sapphire 280x. The performance of this looks great.

Wipe the floor as in 10% upgrade?
And where are these 980ti owners who wanted to held the gaming world back? All I see is your constant posting about 1) how shit Vive is (despite having a shitty gpu) and 2) 980/980ti owners are doomed.
I own two 980tis, and I can't wait to see my gpus get obsolete, since I love this stuff and I can afford to upgrade as much as I like. This just isn't the time.

This looks like the card I will get. The current price in Canada for the 1080 is too much for my taste.
Glad we are getting less of those pointless "waiting for HBM2" posts now that people are seeing what these cards can do for what they cost.

no regrets here... the important thing is i'm pleased, its more than capable with 1440p, VR, ect. there's always going be something else around the corner.
i admit i didn't expect the next x70 card to match it but it bodes well for my next upgrade so no salt. plus i don't expect these cards to be readily available until august or september or so

At this point last year, or well a couple weeks earlier in May it was Witcher 3 (until it ran out) and Arkham Knight, MGSV was added in late July IIRC which I still imagine was so hassle free for many of us to get because of the train wreck AK ended up being. I also got AC:Syndicate in the Fall due to NewEgg being cool, I just asked at the end of a chat about something else and didn't expect them to do it but the CS did.

It is what they said and look how it turned out. 980Ti owners can sit still but no way should anyone get a used 980Ti over a 1070. Unless it's for like $250.
Are you saying upgrading my GPU will fix my graphical issues with my Vive?

I'm just saying that judging something that needs at least a 970 with a far lesser gpu is plain stupid.
There has to be some issue with the drivers/game there. 1070 is obviously stronger than 970.

Funny thing is, I'm still using a single 780Ti for my 1440p 144hz gsync monitor and it's doing pretty well. Obviously can't crank all the settings up on every new game but the games I play the most (which right now is Overwatch) it runs like a dream.
It did serve me for "years" after the next set came out. The biggest limiter in the 780ti was VRAM and 980Ti doesn't really have the problem as much.

Possibly, I think I recall the 970 being very hard to get early on. 1070 being an even better case of bang for your buck will most likely mean the same situation.

I'm assuming you've never used it, have you? It works fine. And I'll get to see myself whether a better gpu fixes the blur. I doubt it.
Pay more attention to the content of posts instead of the poster. You'll be happier.

You can get a steady 60 fps at 1080 but every other picture option set to low and the last 2 gameworks options enabled on a 2 GB 960.

Simple answer: Maybe.

Licorice-flavoured booze?
Are you serious?
Who honestly wanted GPU performance to be held back? as a 980Ti owner I certainly didn't, I'm very happy with my card and I'll be happy with the 1080Ti when it comes out.

You're not fixing the lenses with a new gpu, if that is what you're implying. Still, other visual clarity related issues *could* be performance-related, judging by my experience with all VR headsets.
But you're right, I should just ignore you altogether.

Me too, I mean at 380-400$ 2 of these bad boys for around 800$ would be pretty crazy.

Considering in Europe the price difference between the 1080 and 1070 will probably be around 300 Euro, I think they 1070 will be what I will go for.

Hmm, so I can play games in ultra at 4K @ 30fps on a $380 card? I think I might go with the 1070 instead of the 1080.

you can find some youtube videos for older cards that compare them with the new ones. For 1080 those cards are very good if you enable just basic enhancements. Street Fighter V runs fine on max settings even on a GTX660.
Really if you do not pay attention to the latest multiplatform titles and focus on games made specifically for PC, they can still run at 60 fps

Well... I'm not easily impressed but here I am. The card is more powerful and less power hungry than a 970. I'm a big proponent of power efficiency and this looks really good. Now I'm interested in what could come out of a 1060 or a 1050 card.

This is what I needed. My monitor is only 1080p and I don't have any intent to upgrade so the 1080 is total overkill. Can't wait to pick this up!
