NVIDIA’s latest graphics card, the GeForce GTX1080Ti, will be made available on March 10th and the first benchmarks for it have just hit the Internet. These first leaked benchmarks put the GeForce GTX1080Ti against the NVIDIA GeForce GTX1080 and GeForce GTX1070 on 3DMARK’s Fire Strike and TimeSpy tests.
NVIDIA claimed that the GeForce GTX1080Ti is 35% faster than the GeForce GTX1080, and these leaked benchmarks, more or less, confirm these claims.
In Fire Strike’s Performance mode, the GeForce GTX1080Ti is 30% faster than the GeForce GTX1080. In its Extreme mode, NVIDIA latest GPU is 32% faster than the GTX1080, and in its Ultra mode, the GeForce GTX1080Ti is 29% faster than the GeForce GTX1080.
In Time Spy, the GeForce GTX1080Ti is reported to be 39% faster than the GeForce GTX1080.
Do note that all the GPUs showcased here were overclocked. The GeForce GTX 1080Ti for instance was running at 2062 MHz with memory at 5702 MHz. The GeForce GTX1080 was running at 1933Mhz, while the GeForce GTX1070 was running at 1947Mhz.

Loving how nVidia has the audacity to screw over their early adopters with overpriced middle of the road chips (104) going for $700+ only to release the true high end parts less than a year later for almost the same price. The GTX 1080 will lose value like crazy just as the 680/980 did, overhyped and overpriced, but the nVidia drones won’t take no for an answer.
VEGA is around the corner and it was a preemptive strike …
Did you notice that they did not say the Price at first because the VEGA was to be have a reveal at the same time…
Now the ball is on the AMD side … I hope they undercut the greedy f’ers like they did with INTEL 😀
Mods if you are going to censor the F word.. can you edit my bad typos because it does not allow me now 😀
LOL
they were revealed the same day but isn’t that AMD event was held several hours ahead of nvidia event? so i doubt nvidia are waiting for AMD to reveal more about Vega since when nvidia do their live stream AMD live stream already long over. most likely nvidia just want people to keep watching the show till the end because most of people watching the event probably only interested at 1080ti price not the boring stuff like new things that nvidia did with gameworks and such.
on pricing side it is harder for AMD to undercut nvidia too much. not when they were using much more expensive tech like HBM2. VRAM capacity will be a problem for AMD because high capacity HBM will be very expensive due to stacking risk that’s why they develop HBCC to lower game VRAM usage.
one of the biggest obstacle with HBM is it’s current pricing. and both company deal with this with their own way. because it is expensive AMD develop HBCC to minimize game VRAM usage. nvidia also using HBM2 but only on their tesla P100. to solve the problem of increasing need of bandwidth without have to use expensive HBM (on gaming card) nvidia develop their architecture in a way they can use bandwidth efficiently. that way they can keep using older GDDR tech until HBM pricing can drop to more affordable price for regular consumer product.
did they force you to buy a 1080??!
no, they didn’t
you couldn’t.. i dunno.. WAITED for the TI to come out before buying the GTX 1080
i personally had an Overclocked 980TI and that was a beast of a card
never felt the need to upgrade, until now…
as for the GTX 1080, it’s an excellent card, esp if you use that Nvidia HB SLI bridge
but even the mightest card might crumble under the sheer terribleness of today’s ports (Dishonored 2 gets a strong mention here, ran like utter $hite at the first week)
Well i had the 980Ti clocked +260Mhz and still felt like it’s not a beast so I bought back then the 1080 strix OC and now I that 1080Ti came out I still feel the same thing. Is it worth it buying it now even though i have 2100Mhz? I know the Strix will depreciate like crazy. Asking the real questions here.
When exactly has a gpu not been followed by a better gpu later down the line???
It’s been 10 months since 1080 was released, were you expecting them to never release a better gpu just so you can feel you own the best card around.
If that’s the case, get a console, then you will have hardware that’s “cutting edge” for several years
He was refering to titan x being weaker for much more $. While the titanx can be a very good gpu it is not it’s primary purpose, yet people expect it to be the best. No doubt, every generation the Ti comes out, it beats it and the price is much more affordable.
A bunch a sorry azz titanx buyers lemme tell u dat.
Same principle applies . Who buys titan x not expecting a TI card to drop later? It’s like history hasn’t taught us anything lol
You pay for cutting edge technology at point in time . Production costs drop and success rates for Production increase etc etc.
If you can’t wait for 12 months and want the very best money can buy, then you get to pay for privilege. That’s standard in all business
Well. When a new generation comes in play what you said applies imo. (e.g Titan Xm beaten by 1080) But when you have the strongest card of the current gen Titan Xp beaten by a new card from the same Gpu core and generation, i can understand the frustration and the sour grape juice lol. But one thing you said is damn right. People also need to understand that the Titan lineup isn’t made for gaming.
“You pay for cutting edge technology at point in time”
This is very accurate.
Look back at 780ti beating the original Titan in performance. There’s precedence for these things.
Nvidia know professionals and gamers who simply can’t wait and with money will buy the Titan, they then release the ti equivalent later down line for the less flush enthusiasts.
Anyone with any common sense knows to wait for the TI version.
Oh well i guess you’re right. Indeed the Ti’s were always better or AS good.
Doubt it, They haven’t missed anything!
Same performance but more than 6 months later for the Ti version, Titan X owners have had all that time to enjoy it, Not like it suddenly can’t play anything, Still good to go until Titan X Volta comes along and blows the 1080ti out of the water, Most will upgrade to that and have another 6 month lead. They want the best at the time not the best 6 months later!
You pay a premium to get it first like everything else in life.
Some people can afford the Ferrari while they are still young, Others need to wait until they are 50+ to save enough cash, The rest of us just bolt on a twin turbo kit to our rust buckets and be done with it. 😉
Am tempted myself to jump onto the new Titan X path when Volta comes out. I don’t mind paying extra to have the best at the time instead of multi gpu setup like I do now with some of the hassles.
Good points.
Damn i really regret buying that 1080 and having an entire year’s worth of the best performance from it, I wish I had waited, because who wants to actually play games?
Dan, it’s okay buddy. You have a right to be bitter. I’d be too if I’d spent $700+ on a midrange chip.
people need to stop looking at die size and think certain die size should be mid range and sold at mid range price. because in the end performance dictate the end price not die size. heck AMD tahiti is considered as “mid range” if we look at it’s die size at 365mm2. but i never heard people called it as such before.
die size did not dictate the price.
Don’t get bitter about it, Titan buyers don’t care about money. And nvidia knows it well. It’s a consensed rape game.
And about regular 1080s, they can do that milking cycle since they have no competition, but performance is spectacular nonetheless.
Indeed. It seems as though he’s whining for the sake of whining. No doubt if Nvidia had have adopted a different strategy then he or another internet sage would be whining about that too. Such is life…
Such deduction skill and impeccable reasoning, I am blown away…
Thank you! Now get back to trolling Nvidia as is your norm.
I am not bitter, rather amused. I bought a nice AIB GTX 1070 for around $400 last year, and I knew only too well that nVIdia was lying through their teeth pimping up the regular 1080 as the “king”. Those 1080s are now $700 paperweights in my opinion as the depreciation will be insane on it just like it was on the GTX 680/980.
Can’t expect to sell your midrange “champion” close to what you spent for it now that the real king is out for the same asking price. But don’t worry the drones will buy into the illusion of this 1080Ti offering being a great “value” for its price, but they forget that Pascal is Maxwell on steroids, and still lacks real hardware async and other features, it’s only a tier 2 DX12 card. Next year Volta is going to blow it out of the water for much less, so no matter what nVidia’s asking price is you still lose on these X80/Ti chips, never mind the Titans.
Had the 1080Ti come out last year alongside the regular and carried a price tag of $699 while the regular 1080 was $499, then that might have been somewhat fair to the consumer, as owners would have had a full 2 years to get some value out of their purchases.
what good to consumer doesn’t mean it is also good for a company. ultimately the existence of a company is to make profit and continue to survive. this is just nvidia way to make more profit in declining PC market. they don’t care how much value you can get out of their product. in fact they most likely want you to upgrade every year if possible. and they know certain enthusiast do that. it is what it is. so people should not get angry or dissatisfied when they can’t sell their older card at much higher price when new generation of cards coming out.
Hardware always gets cheaper. You have to decide what you’re willing to spend, get the best card that you can for that amount, and then don’t look at prices for a couple of years, at least.
They don’t call it “bleeding edge” for nothing.
lol @ “screw over”
Anyone that bought a GTX 1080 nearly a year ago, myself included have all enjoyed awesome, high frame rate, ultra settings game play this whole time.
The GTX 1080 is a beast of a GPU, and performs as such. Anyone making a statement such as yours clearly shows who can cannot afford top end video cards.
can’t wait til the aftermarket variants come out with better cooling and overclockability…
that 30-35% performance than GTX 1080… while i’m still used to the 980TI
i really hope Nvidia brought up a considerable stock of those Ti’s
we don’t want another scalping situation like what happened with the 1070 and 1080 on launch month…
I think it’s not going to be as worse but it’ll be scarse. They’ve had alot of time.
My 1080 strix OC is clocked @ 2100Mhz and I can’t find any benchmark out there that will tell me where I stand. I don’t know if I should buy the 1080Ti or not..
2100is quite an impressive overclock. I was rioting at nv for showing their 1080 @2100 for the first time. There hasn’t been alot of people able to achieve that on air.
if you own a 1080, don’t
wait til the prices drop a little and get an Nvidia HB SLI bridge (if your motherboard supports SLI obviously)
now if you don’t mind the micro-stutter SLI is great
if you DO mind the micro stutter and must have the best tech around
you can always sell the card and buy the TI
though i’ed recommend staying with the card, mine is also a STRIX OC version and it’s a beast (though a bit unstable when you OC, even with fans at 80% it’s bound to crash under a certain FPS thresehold)
I see, good advice. I have mine running on OC Mode (GPU Tweak II) and I feel that some games could perform better on 1440p. I Have it watercooled tho. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5225c2f7c7290131b5bd551301ff1cd51e7082e88574505f462d7c865d4e1488.jpg
Im running a 980ti classified and im smashing games at 1440p so your 1080 should be just fine, you shouldnt have to upgrade until the volta Ti whether that be the 2080ti or the 1180ti. bottom line, if you have a 1080 you dont need the 1080ti especially at 1440p. if you were doing 4k thats a different story but if my 980ti is doing 1440p pretty easily im sure youre doing fine
Ok Matt, I’ll stick to 1080. Imagine the pain I have to go thru taking the unit off the wall and redoing the loop. Pain I tell you!
Check the rankings on HWbot.
From a 1080 to Ti I will say go for the upgrade.
-clocks will be almost the same but performance is there.
-f*** SLI on 1080s. 1080TIs on SLI | FTW.
thanks for the heads up buddy!
Great point. I hope that Nvidia won’t be repeating that Founders Edition nonsense with the 1080Ti.
sure hope so, pre-ordering hardware is bollocks for two reasons:
-it creates a demand that sometimes there is more pre-orders than there are units available
-intentional stock scarcity, this happens with every “limited edition” launch
i’m not sure if i should blame Nvidia for that, or those scalping jacka$$es
As I remember it (forgive me if my memory is sketchy!), Nvidia initially released GTX 1080 solely in their own Founders Edition form whereby aftermarket suppliers were barred from selling their own versions for a set period of time.
That Nvidia jacked the price of the so-called Founders Edition during said period smacked of price gouging their customers who’d been fed a constant stream of hype for many months that Pascal was akin to the Second Coming. Rather than letting their own reference card compete equally in the marketplace they created an articial market whereby it was the only version of the product one could buy for a while.
Fair enough that Nvidia wish to sell their own version of their product but that of barring others from doing so for a period of time smacked of anti-consumer behaviour. The practice of ‘timed-exclusive’ products may be commonplace in the console industry but we sure don’t need it infecting PC gaming. Oculus/Facebook are giving it a go, though…
console practices have already infiltrated PCgaming a long time ago
it’s just not applies to hardware, that’s why i was so against pre-ordering and controling the market
not only it damaged the card’s reputation (seeing how $hitty the stock cooler is) it also got bad reviews on amazon for the said prices gaugers (and the numerous fan problems it had)
though in retrospect, the people are also at fault here
for pre-ordering and supporting said practice
i’ve never bought a single stock card in my life, it simply throwing your FPS down the ground to save a few bucks
and a quick search on your typical PC part website already revealed to me there is gonna be a founders edition and pre-orders
fun-f**king tastic
Nvidia is repeating the same mistake, hopefully people learned their lesson and no one will pre-order.. hopefully…
Sadly for the consumer, it’ll not be a mistake from Nvidia’s point of view. Nvidia’s accountants will doubtlessly be looking forward to the high sales and higher profit margins resulting from a repeat of this grubby business practice.
It seems that some people, not just console gamers, let themselves be infected by the marketing hype and will gladly pay over the odds (including that of pre-ordering) seemingly because they have the mentality of an impatient child who must have their shiny new toy the instant it’s available.
As long as such imbecilic consumers exist then companies will seek to exploit their stupidity.
sadly nowadays ignorance trumps intellect
esp when it comes to consumer practices
people have lost their spines and they just wanna “get it as soon as possible”
i’m still wondering how the hell did we get to this, Day-1 DLC, microtransactions, unfinished buggy games, full priced “season pass”
and all that $hite and now… hardware has been infected as well
i guess businesses nowadays know this and they don’t care, they’ll use every dirty trick in the book to dime, nickel and extort
and the sheeple will never change, such is life…
The mainstream gaming media have more than played their part in ‘helping’ us arrive at this parlous state of affairs.
It’s utterly perverse that one has to consult minor media sources such as DSOG, Totalbiscuit, Jim Sterling and Worthabuy to get some true and honest coverage about games.
Pretty much all the big name sites are effectively crippled from giving honest consumer advice on products being reviewed when those products come from the so-called AAA games industry or from the console manufacturers’ due to the very real fear of being blacklisted, i.e. denied early preview code, pre-release code, free review copies, trips to the dev studios, interviews with devs, etc. So powerful are the big games publishers today that they have the media dancing to their tune. Hence for why mediocre or merely ‘good’ games are hyped to the heavens by the media.
So we now have a very obvious disconnect between gamers (of the non-fanboy variety) and the media whereby many gamers have lost trust in what the big name gaming sites tell us. For the naive among us who’ve never known it to be different they seemingly swallow the hype and rush out to buy the latest AAA generic rubbish that’s so often a rinse and repeat of what came before it.
Many gamers are seeming to now view the opinions and reviews at the big name gaming sites as a joke, i.e. not to be trusted or taken seriously. Sites that largely depend on the advertising income supplied by the companies of the products they’re reviewing are clearly in a compromised position and yet some people still praise them each and every time they slap a 9/10 or 10/10 review rating on said products while the site if plastered with adverts for the product purportedly being reviewed honestly and independently.
For a current example, check out the review of PS4 exclusive Horizon Zero Dawn on Worthabuy’s YouTube channel and then contrast his detailed and honest appraisal of that product with the gushing hyperbole lavished on it by the big name sites.
unfortunately this is the sad reality of the gaming world
and what we stated was just the tip of the iceberg
today’s customers are outright insane, supporting early access games
and giving their money blindly to people who waste it on hookers and cocaine (mighty number 9 rings a powerful bell, 5 f**king million $ and the game looked like a 5 thousand $ game.. glad i never supported that scam of a kickstarter)
Single player games are becoming rarer, more stale more focus on “open world” and “crafting” because that’s what the idiots like and what the idiots like sells
as for reviewers, i’m glad Mack from Worth a buy has made his fame and fortune giving honest to god reviews
it’s downright scary that these companies have so much power over the consumer and the journelists, borderline content facism if you ever use reddit (literally reddit sites are controlled shills that downvote and ban and sort of negative criticism on a game’s DLC/microtransaction format
and you don’t need shills when you have fanboys)
Steam reviews also changed the game, by giving all those crappy ports the negative reviews they so desperately deserve
but alas the publishers couldn’t give a damn, it took TWO months to fully optimize dishonored 2 and add in the missing features (NG+ for example)
all we are left with is but a handful of trustworthy companies (namely CDPR and a few other european developers)
that actually deserve our money
EA, Ubisoft, bugthesda, Square Enix, activision none of them worth your money nor your time, i’ve started boy-cutting EA and Ubisoft since 2012 of their horrible Day-1 DLC practice
for 3 years i haven’t bought a single game from them, it only did me good
nowadays i look at these companies and i see their games have taken for the worse, more DLC more Microtransaction more buggy games for full price and less and less single player content (almost to the point where single player content is considered a “feature”)
in 2017 i haven’t found a single game that can sate my hunger for good games, all i ever did was replay the golden older ones
metro 2033 and last light, the witcher 1 2 and 3
and i fear i’ll grow bored with them soon
there is a serious deprivation of good games on steam/gog
the best we can get so far are either soulless sequels, imitations and but a handful of interesting indie games
future is looking pretty bleak for gaming, but as always
it just takes only one good game to make you forget about all the $hite
Indeed. We each have our own indvidual code of ethics when it comes to which companies we choose to support. For example, after I recently read of BioWare employing somebody who has a history of posting overtly racist comments on Twitter (he’s not white so the media of course ignores it) then I absolutely won’t now be supporting them by buying the upcoming Mass Effect: Andromeda or any other of their products until they make amends.
Agreed. It’s ridiculous how many console-exclusives and console-centric games are variations of the same tired old formula. You know the one – third-person action adventures with varying degrees of stealth elements. The Last of Us, Tomb Raider (modern-day), Uncharted, Horizon Zero Dawn, etc. They’re all by and large the same game with different stories told during the obligatory cut-scenes. Taken in isolation, many of them may hold some entertainment value but when the same formula is rinsed and repeated with a new skin and story surely even the console brand fanboys will grow tired of it one day.
Great point there re: how the industry has mobilised an army of boneheaded fanboys to do their PR work for them. I’ll cut fanboys a little slack if they’re circa 12 years’ old because they’re still young and impressionable but the scary thing is that so many of them are of adult age. It’s like football/soccer tribalism to them whereby they attach themselves to a cause and reject all else. Some might say that it’s akin to religion whereby their faith overrides all but I don’t wish to ignite an argument here with those of faith so I’ll say no more on that comparison!
At least the likes of Origin and Steam now have simple no-quibble refunds policies in place which, for PC gamers at least, enables those duped in to buying mediocre games on the basis of shill reviews the opportunity to return the product.
No offence, but I wouldn’t even class CDPR as a company that can be entirely trusted nowadays. They kept the pre-downgrade screenshots and video trailers up on the Steam store page throughout the entirity of The Witcher III’s pre-order period, had their official forum’s staff delete comments highlighting such criticisms and then gave a pathetic interview to Eurogamer claiming that they couldn’t even see the downgrade. Anyone raising such concerns on the internet was routinely attacked by the insanely defensive CDPR fanboy army.
it’s true that CDPR downgraded their game to sell it to the console mass market, can’t blame them for such a decision, though dishonesty is very vile and nasty, they really outplayed them selves with the expansions
best 30$ i’ve ever spend, literally blood and wine (20$) was bigger and better than most of the AAA games that year (2016)
so they’re A-ok in my book (because you can mod the F**k out of your game to make it look like a proper PC game with 4K textures and high res building,indoors, humans and monsters textures (mods pretty much fix the game’s glaring flaws)
and so much agree on those crappy third person shooter clones
i literally felt i was playing tomb raider when i played the last of us, but a much slower crappier full of zombies version of the said game (though with miles better narrative and voice acting)
as for mass effect Andromeda: good for you to stand your grounds on those terrorists c u n t s, it’s not only bad they uglify the squadmates, paint all of the influational characters brown/black and give a strong sense of social justice warrior vibe on their games (since dragon age inquisition)
they also have a bloody street $hitting terrorist jackass who’s glad that many white people died in 9/11
and that’s not all, browsing through youtube comments about the game i’ve found this
“BioWare forums perma-banned me after I had used a Charlie Hebdo cartoon as my profile photo right after the shooting. I only changed my profile photo to the cartoon, and did not even post any comment in the forums. Then I received a threat from a Muslim member, who demanded me to take down my profile photo or he would report me for blasphemy and insulting Islam. I was amused (i.e., “blasphemy, seriously?”) and ignored him. A few day later BioWare permanently banned me for that exact reason. …”
so Manveer Heir is just a small example how SJWare is a growing into a terrorist loving company
i wouldn’t play that filth even they payed me, dragon age inqusition was the first game i refunded on Origin and i was truely impressed by their refund system, kinda abuseable (you can literally buy a game like titanfall 2, finish it, then refund it, i’ve actually done so in the name of testing and IT WORKED! great game btw)
take my recommendation: wait for Mount and Blade Bannerlord
and if you love indie games and platforming
i’ed recommend you freedom planet 2 (there is a demo already, great fun)
and darkest Dungeon DLC coming soon
as for other games, can’t really say much… most of them are either console exclusives or lame rehashes/sequels
I certainly agree with you that TW3 was a great game and its expansion packs, particularly so B&TW, were well worth the money but that was never the issue. Their aforementioned shady tactics and disingenous statements can’t simply be forgiven just because the product was good albeit that’s what seems to have happened with most people. I don’t have an axe to grind with CDPR because there are far worse companies out there with a long history of repeat offences, e.g. Ubisoft, Square Enix, Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment, Koei Tecmo, EA, etc. Here’s hoping we don’t see a repeat of such shenanigans from CDPR with their next major project now that they no longer have the excuse of ‘relatively small company struggling to manage dealing with the big time’.
You’re right to say that TW3 can be modded to look so much better – I did so myself by having installed a ton of great mods from the Nexus. That said, CDPR didn’t deliver the same quality of service to PC gamers with TW3 in that respect as they did with TW2. With TW2 they released a far more extensive modding suite but stated no such thing would be happening with TW3. If you’re keenly in to running a heavily modded TW3 then you’ll know all about the restrictions placed on the number of mods and especially so the number of textures mods that the game will run concurrently. We have to faff about with two different mod manager applications as a workaround to partially offset those limits which wouldn’t be present if CDPR had have released a full modding suite as before.
Yep! Just as there’s such a thing as the ‘Ubisoft formula’ where so many of their games were becoming homogenised there’s also a formula of sorts for those other type of games in question. At risk of upsetting any Sony fanboys happening to be reading, I’d call it the Naughty Dog formula because their big name games and the myriad games like them on consoles all feel pretty much the same to me. So boring to play once one has played a couple of them.
Yep, Manveer Heir is the guy in question. It’s not solely his actions on Twitter (posted under his BioWare employee account, I might add) for why I won’t be buying their wares. I’ve also read various information pertaining to their hiring practices which, again, could be interpreted as being overtly racist. All too predictably, the predominantly Leftist liberal mainstream gaming sites fail to report on this because when one is that far down the rabbit hole their hive mind will forgive all racism in the instance it’s not coming from the mouth of a white person. Such is the media of today.
Thanks for the tips re: games worth playing. I bought M&B, M&B: Warband and M&B: WF&S ages ago but still haven’t gotten around to playing them. More fool me but such is the ‘pile of shame’ when there’s so many great bargains deals to be had as a PC gamer!
It shouldn’t be too much longer before we see benchmarks for games posted on tech and gaming site reviews. It’s looking like the 1080 Ti is going to be a great performer and with non reference coolers should OC very well.
On the AMD side Vega should arrive in a couple of months and if the speculation is correct should perform somewhere around a 1080 (not Ti). Which is about a year late but better late than never. At least there will be some competition in the mid range to upper mid range market for Pascals. AMD doesn’t have to worry too much about the high end like 1080 Ti because few people buy at that level of performance.
mainstream hardware generate the most sale volume but the most profit still coming from high end segment due to much higher net profit vs hardware building cost. also having the fastest gpu also serve as marketing purpose that showing that your brand is the “best”. this to certain extend affect the sales on the much slower product.
but this new Ti will sale like crazy. if not gamer then those that need them for AI simulation might buy this gpu in bulk. because according to anandtech this GTX1080ti will have unlock INT8 performance just like titan XP.
I’ll wait for the superior Vega.
Not interested in yet another Maxwell iteration.
I need the Mega Vega!
I want the Sega Mega Vega Drive version with integrated Blast Processing capability!
I’ll wait for the even more superior Nvidia Volta.
Yep, keep waiting. It’ll be about as exciting as that Ryzen launch.
I don’t know why people are upset. Nvidia has been sandbagging users and performance for years now.
Soon, my precious.
Tempting, but I’m gonna wait. My GTX 1080 is still crushing games at 1440p. Maybe I’ll go for the 1180 or 1180 Ti once those eventually hit.
It’s okay Dan, damn… I can sympathize with your situation, It’s frustrating! Direct that anger at the people who sold you a mid-range chip as being high-end.
Don’t listen to him Dan… he sounds jelous at the fact you run a 1080… i wonder what he’s running… a 960 probably… or worse still… anything from AMD.
Got a 780ti, still a great card. Might change it with a Volta, depends on AMD
I have 2 780ti’s and i’m gonna bite on the 1080ti, just waiting on the 3rd party designs. I can’t wait to dump SLI 🙂
I think it’s so funny how everything is “Leaked” now days. Isn’t anything just ever news? Not to mention, they are probably purposely “Leaking” news so it seems more forbidden and therefore gets a larger audience. Just an observation
“leaked” is just a dumb phrase to attract clicks
like Bugthesda phrasing “free updates”
blame DSO not the source, Nvidia and their partners provided these sources
No thanks nvidia you wont get my money this year my 980ti is still more than enough…unless you cripple it by making sure it will perform miserably in upcoming games to force gullible gamers to upgrade.
If this gonna happen i hope amd will have a worthwile option im sick of nvidia forcing their newest technology at overblown prices and making sure their old technology is “abandoned” i did not forget about kepler architecture performing badly when maxwell came out
protip do NOT update the drivers once the card is released
that Nvidia “experince” software deliberately downclocks your GPU once the new TI is released (seriously google the 780Ti symptom)
Tech wise it was always mid range,Marketing wise it was the highest they offered!
You always go off the die size, Those of us old farts have known this for ages.
it is “geforce” after all. but we know all along Ti will coming out few months later. it is not even a secret anymore. but the titan usually have certain compute element that being unlock that regular geforce did not. and this is targeted towards compute crowd that want cheaper compute card. for gamer this is totally useless. but the titan also being expensive for this reason. but that’s for gamer only. not for compute user.
so in the end it ends up on how you decide to do. most people already know Ti will definitely come later but they simply want that kind of performance in game ASAP. so they just buy the titan even if their only purpose is gaming. most people that complaining about the price and angry at nvidia and called them greedy or screwing the titan buyer usually did not even buy the titan at all. heck some of them did not even buy nvidia card at all haha.
next card for me will be a 1160 or whatever they call it
