Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti Rumors

[AndyKala]

I currently have a 780 Ti in my build, I was planning on upgrading to the 980 Ti, but I discovered the 1080 Ti should be coming out in a year. I am going to do 4k gaming without a doubt. my budget is $650 on the GPU, do you guys think the 1080 Ti will be really expensive? Or if it will handle 4k? I want to hear your ideas on this card.

the normal 1080 can handle 4k and you can get it around $650 and the 1080ti should do 4k better but with a higher cost

The 1080 can barely do 4k on maxed setting, have you seen some of the benchmarks? It's still not capable of doing 60fps 4k.

wait until AMD releases Polaris before making your final decision, 1080 ti might not even come out this year.

then wait for the 1080ti if you want to play on maxed settings at 4k but i think the 1080ti would be more expensive

You don't have to always play at maxed settings though...so yes, it can perform fine at 4k.

I don't mind waiting one more year, my 780 Ti is standing tall

would you say playing at 4k with lowered settings would be better then 1080p maxed settings because of more pixels?

See, thats my dilemma. I can't decided over 4k or 1440. I think 1440 would make more sense. But, within next year, 4k should be more reasonable. That's why I can't decided on a GPU.

unless you use unnecessary amounts of AA and other things that make 0 difference, it can get 60fps in every game at 4k

polaris is going to be mid/low end

there is no way you will run ultra 4k unless you consider crappy CFX an "option"

I really hope your right, I think the benchmarks YouTubers do are way to maxed out. Plus, I do plan on running SLI. Which should improve FPS.

Well their low end cards are being released right now. Vega (which is a chip that uses the Polaris architecture) will be released later this year, and it's the one with more meat on it's bones.

polaris =/= vega

he said polaris

which is mid/low end

 

vega is not called "polaris" just like a kepler is not called maxwell

I thought Vega was just the codename for the chip? It's still Polaris based isn't it?

Not according to Nvidia, its on their release charts as a separate architecture in 2018.

Hell, the 1070 can handle 4K!

[Phoenix721]

Wait for Vega and/or the new titan and 1080 TI.

polaris is one thing vega is another

they will both be 14nm though

 

maxwell is one thing, and kepler is another

they were both 28nm

-Yes, it will be stupidly expensive, especially at launch and for the first 6 months.

-Yes, it will destroy 4K gaming.

I don't necessarily know if we can just assume there will be a GTX 1080 Ti. We got the 980 Ti because AMD was trying to position the Fury X as a direct alternative to the $1000 Titan X. Nvidia wants to sell Titans for as long as the competitive environment lets them.

Wtf? Polaris and Vega are AMD not Nvidia.

[Simon771]

I think GTX 1080 Ti will cost around 899-1099$

[StealthArsenal]

I am expecting to see the TI come in just a bit above the pricing of the 980TI was it launched.  You have to remember, there will be a new Titan coming.  They aren't going to price the TI so close to the Titan.  I can't find the article or thread, but there was a leak of the Nvidia roadmap for big Pascal and it showed the TI and the Titan scheduled for an October/November timeframe.  I suspect it will be plus or minus weeks just to see how the Vega chips do and how they will compete with Nvidias current offering.

not upgrading from my 980ti until there is a 1080ti or amd makes something crazy good

Your budget is $650 (which is the price of one 1080) and you plan on SLI two 1080Ti?
