Nvidia GTX 1070 Review

probably should have used a r9 390 to compare to the 970/1070 since it's in the same price range. the R9 380x is like $80 cheaper than a 970 and almost exactly half of a 1070 reference card. Also I absolutely refuse to name it founders edition.

I'm more excited for the GTX 1070 because it has much better price/performance, but that's just me.

Here here.

Gtx 1070 -> Reads "brand NEW 980 ti is now worth 350~360$, and the used one you own is worth even less!"

When do the non-reference cards come out?

Can a fx 8320 at 4ghz handle this or the 1080?

No, the highest end an FX processor can handle within reason @ 1080p would be the R9 380 and GTX 960.

if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

Ok so when I get my 1440p monitor you think I should go intel and make a new rig nvme would be nice too. I was really hoping on avoiding that but I really really want a lg curved monitor.

If you're going 1440p, you may be able to make better use of the GPU, but the CPU may still end up being a limiting factor in certain titles. Intel would definitely be desirable for a gaming PC, though.

I am thinking adding another r9 380 4gb I read that it would be just enough to handle 1440p with out me dropping 1400 on a new rig. I want to wait a year or two more before i build a new rig.

Someone do the math real quick. In $/FPS, if the supposed 480 was EST. at $250, and has around Fury performance, how would it stack against the 1070?

You can get a R9 Fury for as little as $480 atm but you can also get a 380x for $180

 

based on their Hitman 4k slide, and by putting the fury right between the R9 390x and the Fury X with an average of 39.5 FPS, a Fury equivalent card (480x or 490) in Hitman 4k max settings + FXAA at a price of ~250$ be 

Fury($519): 13.13$/FPS 

R9 480x/490($250/300): $6.3/FPS Let's say it's 300$ that would still put it at $7.59/FPS

1070($449): $12.13/FPS

Obviously the 1070 might do better at 1080/1440p but there was no slides for those also displaying a 390 and Fury X

 

I think Dollar per FPS should be calculated by the hardest thing to run, 4k atm not where that particular GPU is comfortable.

Yah I wish I could see an lg monitor with my own eyes. I can decide between a 21:9 screen at 1440p or a 16:9 4k screen I figure the 21:9 will give me better field of view. Thanks for that graph though can you link me to the whole article please?

The GTX 1080 is badass, but it's still pretty darn expensive. But the 1070, man... It's pretty freaking awesome too!

 

 

What setup did you guys use on the benchmarks? Specs?

"We tested this card at 4K and 1440p", first test shows 1080p. Was that some last minute add in @nicklmg

The ability to google properly is a skill of its own.

Man, I wish this was compared more to the 980, as opposed to the 970. It better have beat the prev-gen 2nd tier launch card. I want to see how far we've come from the top tier launch card from over a year and a half ago.

Well, just like the 1080, that MSRP price of $379 (mind you, that's already $50 above what the 970 launched at) is just a showroom model with like 2 cards being that low. For all the others (MSI, Asus, EVGA, etc) they will be at or above the FE price, just like on the 1080.

From what I've seen so far in terms of 1080 pricing, the FE sits right in the middle of cards offered by partners, and some of those partner offerings that are cheaper are also faster than the FE

From like 5:28 onward. They compare 1070/970/380x/1080/390x/TitanX, and not all of those all of the time.
