Woah N. 3 ^^

 

Seriously. Vega dissapointed me through the energy hunger. But if it´s better in the next Gen, then O Baby. All AMD!

Linus was standing in this video. No wonder it was an excellent video (i'm not being sarcastic)

Quality aside, the 1070 TI looks like it'll be the most irrelevant card Nvidia has put out in recent memory.

 

In virtually any case, one would be better off saving up the extra 50-75 bucks for the 1080 and enjoy life than buy this. Or buy a regular 1070 and get a bigger SSD with the money left over.

i knew the video is gonna be released today, i mean i don't know why i feel like that

anyways do you guys still remember when he said "times coming like a 1070Ti" in the RX Vega Review he made, how can it be real?

i was surprised when i looked at the leaks in G+ and finally Linus answers it once and for all

somehow it must be a trending topic on youtube #?

"Make it future proof for some years at least, don't buy "only slightly better" stuff that gets outdated 1 year, that's throwing money away" @pipoawas

I still don’t understand why the 1070 Ti exists.

 

From the looks of it, it’s just a 1080 with GDDR5 rather than GDDR5X and a slightly lower binned GP104 (the standard 1070 also has a GP104 but of an even lower bin). Sure, it is cheaper ($100 difference when comparing Founder Edition GPUs) but if you can find deals, isn’t it better to just spend the little extra on a 1080?

 

I don’t think the card itself sucks. It’s not a bad one at all. But what exactly is the point?

Or add scanlines and occasional vhs loopback distortion you know, get the full retro effect.

Not sure if I can agree with that.

GTX 1070 costs 440€  (1920 cores --> 1€ = 4,36 cuda cores)

GTX 1070 Ti = 470€  (2432 cores --> 1€ = 5,17 cuda cores)

GTX 1080 = 540€ ( 2560 cores --> 1€ = 4,74 cuda cores)

 

At least those are prices in Germany right now.

Sure we can't just look at number of cores when comparing gtx 1080 and 1070 ti, since GTX 1080 is also using GDDR5X

 

But when you look at GTX 1070 vs GTX 1070 Ti, price to performance ratio ... I would say 1070 ti is better option.

Some users simply can't afford to spend another 70€ to get 1080 GPU, and GTX 1070 Ti isn't any bad at all.

It's only 30€ more expensive than GTX 1070 so if you ask me, it's well worth it.

Buy a GTX 1070 Ti:
On Amazon: http://geni.us/A9YafX8
On Newegg: http://geni.us/A63XJ

So, 360P vs 720P, no difference at all.

But let's skip that. I can only think about that OC thing though...

Did you test the card overclocked or at stock? This is exactly why I feel your reviews aren't as good as they could be. They don't give all the info you could. Really wish you'd spent a little more time and went the extra mile.. 

 

Also, a more Nvidia slamming headline would have been great, if you're that upset with their practice change.

Likely stock since no 1070 Tis come with a factory overclock

If someone is about to spend 450 bucks on a GPU for a new build or upgrade, they can sure as heck save up the little bit extra for the 1080. It's absolutely worth the extra money over the 1070 TI.  

 

I don't make much money myself, but yet I make things work. Takes a modicum of effort into budgeting to be able to pony up the extra cash.

Nvidia fucked up with their partners, and AMD should capitalize on this. 

 

They should go to partners like EVGA and other nvidia exclusive partners and pitch to them to make AMD cards, then advertise how you can't get factory overclocks on nvidia cards.
