I actually think it will take quite a while, maybe after a month or so after the release of the 1080

[TheKDub]

Looking at how the 7xx series prices didn't drop by too much ($100-200 depending on the card), I would expect the 9xx line to follow suit and drop around $100-200 depending on the card. (Maybe $250 or less for 970, $500 or less for 980ti)

[The Salt Is REAL]

We won't even need price drops, price-to-perf of Pascal is AMAZING

[casbro11]

Probably not long, seeing how soon the cards are released I think a lot of people will buy the 900 series, especially first time builders, but I may wait and get my cpu upgraded before my gpu.

[Moonzy]

no price drop because no one is going to buy them anyway

 

RIP my 970 ;-;

[Cereal5]

i'd say 3 weeks to one month before people start realizing just how good the cards are, and then... WE CAN ALL HAVE QUAD SLI TITAN Xs

 

 

 

 

jk titan Xs will be poop by then. rip dreams, rip indeed

Prices don't drop. They simply stop producing the product in question.

nah, 960 4GB will be imo.

[Jaggsta]

GTX 970 was already cheap brand new $250 from Jet with the $50 off promo. And 980Ti is $550

[FourCorners]

Price will drop faster on the used market compared to getting a new 900 series card. That's where you'll find the best bang for buck. If you could find a 980ti for ~$300 it'd be the better deal

[Jaggsta]

Jet has had GTX 970 for $250 for 8 months now. and GTX 980Ti for $550 with all the 15% discount promos.

[Waqas409]

Im feeling sad and worried that i have bought 960 week ago, should have waited for price drop and get a 970 instead

[BestWaifu]

gtx 970 $280 https://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-video-card-turbogtx970oc4gd5

Since the performance increase is gonna be pretty much what we get with every gen, prices will follow usual patterns. 

 

Buy a 1070 now or wait for ti/Titan variants next year. I'm waiting for the high end cards, that'll give me time to see what AMD are up to.

do you think a single 1080 card can run 4k? if it can, that would be sweet for a lot of people

do both. 
Buy a 1070 to wait till Q1 2017. 
Sell it for a decent price before the release of the new cards ( some ignorant fool will buy it ) 
Buy your dream. 

[Simon771]

Price drop?

Gtx titan x cost like 1k $, and the new 1070 will cost under 400$.

They said 1070 is better than titan X, so you get that performance for 2x lower price.

 

Why should you buy used 9xx (ti), if you can get new 1070 for under 400$.

 

Now it makes me sad that I bought my R9 390 for 350$ like 3 months ago :\

JOKES ON YOU

People are already talking about selling their 970s, so I'd expect them sooner than normal.  Unlike Kepler to Maxwell, Pascal is actually going to render its predecessor obsolete.
