Quick opinion and question about 1080

[Hogger]

So, personally, I wasn't too impressed by the 1080 benchmarks. I realize that with more mature drivers, It might improve a good bit, but overall, not too impressed. The 1080 IS indeed better than a 980ti, but not by a margin that I personally would call significant. 

 

Now here is the question(s)

 - Do you think they will come out with a 1080ti (or even bring back the xx90!?!?) 

 

 - After the possible price drop of the 980ti's, would you consider buying 2 980ti's over the 1080 (of course, if the drop is big enough)

Yes and yes.

 

Not sure about the xx90 though.

I understand the benchmarks, I understand the 1080 is better than a 980ti and sometimes 980ti sli in some games, but I'm just saying. After the price drop of the 980ti, It might be a possible card to get, just about a year old and still a good powerhouse card.

Unless AMD releases a card that blows the 1080 out of the water Nvidia doesn't really have a reason to make a TI version.

Although releasing a TI version of the 1080 would increase sales for Nvidia so maybe they will.

Don't expect a huge drop in the 980ti's price for awhile. On the 1080's release, I'd say expect about 50-60$ price drop.

The benchmarks in their review were non-OC'd, correct? If these are the results at ~1700 MHz, and it can comfortably overclock to 2100+ (assuming the demo was any sort of baseline), then I'd imagine it should be capable of a decent amount more than what we've seen so far.
