11 series wait ?

[Samuel_Beracko]

hello guys i want your opinion on this :

i can buy a gtx 1080 used for about 2 months (under warratnty until 2021)

but i fear that when i will buy it, the new 11 series cards will come out with better performance for less money 

 

the used gtx 1080 for 450€ (the new card now cost around 670€) 

when gtx 1080 came out in 2016 here in slovakia new cards cost about 780-800€

 

also i want to sell my gtx 970 for about 150€ do you think its price will fall when 11 series will come out

 

what do you think about this ?

You can wait forever for the next thing to come out, as when the 1180 comes out, the 1280 will be next.

 

What resolution/FPS is your monitor? If you're going to do 1080p/165Hz or 1440p 144Hz or medium 4K gaming, then the 1080 will be fine.

 

P.s, When the 1180 comes out, it will not be cheaper.

Just get the 1080. 1180 will be even more expensive than 1080 did back when it's new, so it's not like it will be in your target price range.

...and yes the 970 will also be worth even less once new cards comes out.

I’m personally waiting for the GTX 1180 but buying a GTX 1080 now would also be a good choice. 

 

When the GTX 1180 comes out it will be quite expensive so you will probably have to wait a couple of extra months before the price is good. But if you are committed to wait a couple of months longer for the GTX 1180 like I am then I would suggest that you wait for the 11 series! 

 

Have a great day!

yeah that would be great but i dont want to spend like 700+ euros for the new 1180

if i were to buy the 11series i would go for the 1170 ( do you think it will be faster than the 1080 ?)

I definitely think it will be faster than the GTX 1080. It will be as powerful as the GTX 1080 at a minimum and I'm almost a 100% certain the memory on the GTX 1170 will be much faster then the GTX 1080's memory!

I mean, both were good choices so you don't have to worry!
