Best GPU Recommendations?

Hello friends,

 

It's been some time since I've frequented these forums, or followed tech releases closely for that matter. I'm still rocking my water cooled GTX980 but am looking to upgrade this black friday if I can snag a sweet deal. Anyone mind breaking down the best GPU releases out there right now for me? I am aware of 1060, 1070, and 1080, although I haven't had a chance to check out the specs in much detail yet. If someone could share some insight or recommendations that would be great especially with relation to my current GPU. Cheers.

The only nice upgrade would only be a 1070 or 1080 or get another 980 (most likely not). Assuming you have 4790k in your sig

To be honest the 1070 is like $300 LESS than the 1080...and the 1080 doesn't seem like it's all that much better...the 1070 can be had for $400...is a little more performance worth a 75% price addition? The 1070 looking nice.

x80 class cards were never great deals though...

Fair enough. The 1070 seems like a pretty good upgrade from the 980. 1080 seems like a bad deal & I really don't care about the slight extra performance for $300 dollars. I will keep a lookout for a good 1070 deal this black friday.
