GTX 1080 vs 1080 Ti

[Brian Lu]

Hi y'all, 

If the GTX 1080 Ti have all of the shit that they told, will the GTX 1080 will be worthit at this point over a 1080 Ti since the prices has drop?

[Aytex]

Eh, Not really, If the 1080 was $400-$450 then maybe, but at $500 for a 1080, you might as well just grab the ti

Depends on your needs. If you want to game on 4k 60hz Ultra then you need 1080ti.

I'd say definitely go with the 1080ti over the 1080.

do you really think a 1080ti can handle this?

Pretty confident. Wait for benchmark and see.

1080 Ti will be around Titan XP performance. Does the Titan XP manage 4k 60fps ultra ? No, close to it in a lot of cases, but no. The 1080 Ti will be a bit better since it will overclock a bit more and will have AIB options, but it will be short for 4k 60fps ultra in the most demanding games. And it won't last very long for 4k as games become more and more demanding. It's the best single GPU option for 4k, especially considering the price, but it's much more suited for 1440p 144Hz imo

So what about 1440p 144Hz  

 

will a 1080 do or should one future proof a bit with a 1080 ti?

I'd personaly go for a 1080 Ti. You'll be well above 60 fps in current games, and you can be pretty confident regarding the card's capability in the upcoming years. But it all depends on your budget because a 1080 will be also quite nice. If you have the cash for a 1080 Ti, definitely get this one.

thanks I didn't what to high jack the discussion but I recently invested in the Asus ROG SWIFT PG279Q and I never knew how much a good monitor would affect my gaming.  My 970 is struggling to keep up but when i play something older or lighter weight and I get 100+ FPS it is like

I'd take 100hz 21:9 1440p over that ANY day!

I wanted to build a small system with 4670k in it, ASUS Impact mobo and GTX 1060, but I am contemplating whether I should buy 2x GTX 1080 TI for my main rig instead of one and ditch the idea of buying the mini system. Hmm... I do have a 4K monitor however, so gaming would be nicer if I had 1080 TI SLI?

I did some serious thinking about that but I run 2 side monitors for work reasons and I just don't have the room.

The 1080ti will be on par with the Titan XP, thus about 25% more performance than the 1080.

 

However, the Price at $699 is almost 40% higher than the 1080 pricedrop at $499. Thus, the 1080 is better value, better fps per dollar. I dont understand people that say: you might as well get the Ti. No, it is a worse deal. The 1080 is actually a great deal at $499. That is actually the price it should have been in the first place, offering 25% more performance over the 1070, at about 25% more cost.

 

But if you just want the fastest, and money or sense dont mean anything to you, get the 1080ti.

Or just ditch the two and get one! If you get an LG one it will let you split the screen between two different inputs and allow you to use one mouse and keyboard to control both computers/inputs!
