Glad to see someone testing this. I wonder how much impact game updates themselves will have, but given enough time and enough comparisons, game patches shouldn't be too intrusive on the resluts.

Nice!

Would this card be a slight improvement over a GTX 970?

We await test results to confirm, but nvidia are calling it 980 equivalent so that should be a reasonable improvement. It will cost more than a 970 anyway...

The only clue we have as to how it will perform is Nvidia's marketing slides which says that it will perform like a GTX 980. It will probably be slightly lower than that though. If those numbers are correct then it will probably be better than the 970, but not enough to justify buying it (unless you really want some of the new features).

If the 1060 is faster than the 480, then I would be disappointed in AMD, because they could have done so much more to Match the 1060's performance. There's still that price factor though.
