    Sweet.

    Having my next major upgrade planned for June, so availability should be fine then. Willing to pay €800 for it, about the same as my 980ti "back in the day" :D

    Maybe launch prices will be higher, but should also be stabalized byt then + nice 3rd party cards :D :banana:

    Yeah, don't think that's gonna happen - looks like you'll be holding onto your GTX 1080 & I'm sure you can be happy about it! :)

    Titan XP is only something like 20% - 30% faster than the 1080 on average isn't it? They didn't seem to care much about Titan owners the last few times, why stop now :banana:?

    For everyone who wants 60fps@4k, just do it like me, slightly reduce your eyesight (nothing major just less details the longer the range), play from slightly afar at 1080p. Seems like 4k and you can run it on 60fps with a 1060.

    Is the banana for scale there?

    I've always wanted an excuse to use that emoticon :p.

    Seriously though, I won't be too surprised if 1080ti ended up around the same or a little better than TXP. If the 1080ti isn't more powerful than the 1080 by at least 20% on average I don't think many would buy them.

    The only saving grace is that, at least by my opinion, other than Mass Effect there aren't a ton of games to get that excited about over the next 6 months.
    By the time some more worthwhile titles are out, the cost of the TI should be more reasonable.

    the 1080ti would only be "better" than the titan xp out of the box because of the partner oems overclocking them stock. take an overclocked titan xp that's on water at 2100mhz and you've got a higher performing card still, in all forms.

    Just a marketing trick. nVidia build like 75 pieces of it.

    One should be a damn noob (or a terribly disinformed fella) to buy this card, considering the fact of Volta being just 'round the corner. To buy a card at that price tag (200$ more than "regular" 1080) which will probably be Volta upper model's price tag too...

    Volta is rumored for Q1 2018 at the earliest, which would put it a year from the 1080Ti release date, which is the same length of time between the 980Ti and 1080. I don't recall anyone calling 980Ti owners "damn noobs/terribly disinformed" for buying them.

    Hilbert, can you post a list of recent games that successfully scale up with 1080's in SLI? Not much point in buying two if they don't generally scale up.

    It's more like 30% faster taking in the alleged count of cores.

    How about 1080Ti Vs. 980Ti SLI ?

    What should i except in fps if i change to 980Ti SLI to 1080Ti ?

    Quite the same fps but smoother (if possible any advance with G-Sync), maybe.

    Need 165fps at 1440p so in many cases 1080Ti SLI is ok, or 4k and 120hz...

    You probably won't hit 165FPS in everything but, I imagine you'll be good for 120+ on average. No one can give a definitive answer until it's out and sites bench such a setup.

    Jep right, but as said, around +30% compared to 1080 it might be close to 980Ti SLI. And some watercooling + OC i hope 1080Ti is at least even or better.

    We'll see soon :)

    @nudedude
    You dont "need" 144hz, you "want" it... ;-)


    There's only a 0.01% chance, but i would like to see a volta Ti launch (if if its just on paper), and get some specs/release info for volta..
