Is NVIDIA making low end Pascal cards?

[Trav_X]

Like sub $300 USD range? I've heard rumors about a 1060Ti, but could anyone provide some links to more of those pages? I want NVIDIA low end Pascal, cause I'm on a low and tight budget for my next build. I need to get a new 1440p monitor so my budget is like sub $1000 USD, closer to even like sub $800 USD. Based on the past, or on your own opinion, do you think NVIDIA will have low end on Pascal chips in the future?

i dont think Nvidia knows what low end means any more

GP106?

Give it time and more cards will come out.

They always start by releasing high end cards, then the lower end cards like the 960 and 950 come out later on. (Or what will be the 1060 and 1050)
Might take 1-3 months though.

they always release in the 60's range (660 to 960) I don't see a reason why they wouldn't release something like a 1060.

They said late summer I think.

they will, but only years down the line like in 2017. Nvidia doesn't have muchmotivation to make low-end cards because they require plenty of R&D to make a low-end GPU and profits on low-end GPUs are pretty small. I imagine they will one day but not until the entire pascal lineup ranging from the GTX 1050 and above has been released.

That makes sense, I see why they would do that  I just hope that they hurry up!

Interesting....

True, although a Ti 60 series hasn't even seen since the 660Ti

Maybe they will before the end of the summer

Yeah, if Pascal launch is late May/early June, do you think we could see something by August or September? (My cake day is in Sept.)

yes i think they will...before the end of the summer they will have GTX 1050 and GTX 1060 up for sale...and there has been discussion about a 1060ti as well.

I kinda want to get my i7 and stuff like that now and just use my 750T over the summer, then maybe get a low end Pascal before the end of the year or in September around my cake day.

it's a good idea to invest more on a powerful CPU that will have you set for many years...typically a good CPU for gaming like the core i7 last a good 5 years + of happy gaming where as GPU goes obsolete a lot quicker...maybe 2 or 3 years even if you go high-end you'll want a new one...so spending more on the CPU vs the GPU can IMHO be a good strategy to kind of have something that will be relevant longer and will last you a long time before you have to get a new board/CPU/memory...swapping GPU is a lot easier, sell the old one, order new one, pop it in...done

Yeah, part of my thoughts exactly  I'd expect my 750Ti to at least get me through the Summer since it's already doing fine with the stuff that I play, so I'm probably going 5820k or 6700k and get a nice Watercooler instead of going 1231v3 Xeon with no OC that I'll upgrade like soon  thanks for your help

also for your GPU if you have acess to craigslist or something like that it might be worth keeping an eye on used cards such as the GTX 970/980 many people will want upgrade from them and they will sell for peanuts online...a GTX 980 will likely be as fast as a GTX 1060 or maybe even faster for example and you might be able to get one for less money...

True  I'll definitely look into that

Earlier, I saw a few listings on ebay where people were selling new GTX 970's for like $200-250. You could look into that. I'm hoping nvidia will release a 1050 or 1060 in August-Sepetember. If they don't, I might have to look into what AMD has on offer. Just like you, I can't afford the 1070 or 1080 atm, because of college.
