Hmmm..  I want to get a better card to replace my 1070 since I'm hoping to give 4K gaming a try but idk if hoping for a 1080 ti, just getting a 1080, or waiting for the next Nvidia series is the best option.   

Don't forget Vega.

You might not want to ask me, I'm riding this 980 into the ground until 4K monitors are lower priced.

Nothing wrong with that.  If it's good enough for you then it's great to stretch it and really get a nice bang for your buck.

 

I'd be 100% fine with my 1070 if it weren't for my desire to try 4K.

I've had issues with AMD GPUs on my first couple laptops years ago.  

 

What makes Vega worth considering in your opinion?

 

I'm inclined to prefer Nvidia but I want to be fair and give what you have to say a fair hearing.

Same (or better with the Vulkan and DX12 APIs) performance at a lower cost.

 

And yeah, AMD laptop GPUs of year's past were trash. Their desktop cards however, are not. They've changed as a company, for the better.

I suppose it couldn't hurt to see what they end up releasing.  Though tbh I'm a bit anxious to upgrade so I might just buy whoever releases a suitable card first.  ?

 

Has there been any details about when Vega will be released?

We'll know more on February 28th when AMD will hold an event where they'll talk more about Vega.

 

It's been said before though. Q2 this year is what they're shooting for.

Ah.  Ok.  Sorry.  I don't pay attention to AMD stuff so if I had heard I wouldn't have remembered it. ?

So expect performance near a Titan X Pascal I can safely assume?

 

Lets hope it doesn't cost around the same as a Titan X

GPU: Radeon RX 7900 XT 

RAM: 32GB 3600MHz

HDD: 1TB Sabrent NVMe -  WD 1TB Black - WD 2TB Green -  WD 4TB Blue

AMD just launched the 1800X 8 core 16 thread CPU that competes against Intel's 6900K; and it's half the price.

I'd expect AMD to price Vega really competitively as well if they don't have manufacturing issues.

Does anyone have a link (if it exists) where one can watch the Nvidia announcement?

I'm guessing this card will perform a little under titan xp which can't even run 60fps at 4K at max setting, at the cost of more than $1k, I'd say just wait for 2-3 years.

What are you talking about of Titan XP not able to maintain 4k@60fps? It totally can do it and even more.

it's cool to see the GPU market push forward.

What do you mean ?

 

1080ti is not a step forward. Its a step down from Titan. All the previous Ti cards were a cut down version of already released gpu chip. Doubt this one will be different. Better than 1080 for sure but not a new top end card from Nvidia.

Not top as in better than any other Nvidia card no.  But still it would be better than a 1080 without the "here's my soul" bs pricing of a Titan card.

Still debating on this vs Vega. I want to make the jump to 3440x1440 or hopefully even 3840x1600 ultrawide sometime soon-ish. However until I can afford one of those beastly monitors, I'm still slumming it on my 2560x1080 Freesync monitor and R9 Fury.

 

Hoping Vega is good. Otherwise I'm jumping ship.

Let's see if it causes prices of other cards to drop even a little bit, or fills up the used market a little bit more with cheaper 10xx cards..

So NVidia will have the Volta Titan out before AMD can get VEGA out at this point. xD
