GTX 980/970 Pricing & Reviews

[theelitegamer]

I'm actually surprised that a 350$ dollar card is going against a 700 dollar card? Why does the 290x cost so much? Well, when does these babies come out? Hopefully around income tax time!

[SSOB]

I am very dissapointed, Yes at FullHD the improvement is great. At higher resolution ( Not 4K) Its really not that faster.

[ChrisxIxCross]

why is the 780 ti clocked that low?

Those are the stock clocks of the 780 Ti. 

[skullbringer]

so the 980 is as fast as a 780ti, a 970 is as fast as a 780, a 960 is as fast as a 770.

 

Oh, a pattern, is this how gpus have worked over the past 3 years !??! o.0

[aduman]

If this is true, then fuck it I'm stepping up from 780ti classies. Nvidia surprising in the last second as always...

[Sharif]

This does seem interesting but i am waiting for 960!!! 

[ThatSweetGamer]

why is the 780 ti clocked that low?

To make it look like the 980 is that much better than a 780 Ti.

[ChrisxIxCross]

Does anybody know how much the 970 and 980 will cost?

No one knows for sure but ALLEGEDLY 980 will be 549$ & 970 will be 399$. 

[LukeTim]

I just wanna see reviews already... How do these things perform.

[ViruZ_HUN]

HAHA!
 

I WAS RIGHT!

GTX 980 IS BETTER THEN GTX 780 TI!.

 

BURN!!

why is the 780 ti clocked that low?

That's the normal clock speed (Stock) I guess the 980 was run at it's stock speed as well. . And since the 750ti overclocked great I am excited to see how good the 980 overclocks.

From the looks of it. You'd be able to SLI the 980 using only a 500W power supply.

Wow, that's cheaper than I thought.

549 $ for few FPS? I'd buy a 290 for 400 buck better

500 is a little close don't you think? More like 550 to 600. Btw I called this a long time ago.

wish i had the money to do that

[Izaya Orihara]

Oh believe me you will have a big headroom for overcklocking on 980 due to smaller wattage etc.

Look at the card itself - it only requires two 6-pin connectors, that's some low wattage right there.

The tdp is 165. It's on Inno3d's website. And two 6 pins + the pcie slot can provide up to 225. Going to be fun.  

[Accursed Entity]

HAHA!

BURN!!

 

Anyone in this forum said otherwise? Damn that is one dumb person.

 

Just like the guys saying these cards weren't gonna be release this year... I wonder what are they thinking now.

[ViruZ_HUN]

many others said otherwise

I find it funny that the only thing I took from this is the fact I almost pissed myself laughing when I read "Tomber Raider"..
