    What are the next generation of GPU's going to look like from Nvidia? Is it going to be a large technological leap or just a marginal improvement?

    Thanks all and Happy New Year!

    basically this Titan Volta, but without
    -Tensor cores
    -64DP
    -HBM?

    Quick GPU vs HBM OC

    Maybe GF2080TI? variant will pack more cores and higher clocks due to missing Tensor and 64DP calculations.

    Marginal improvement at best, most likely Not Volta. 5-10% performance increase over current Pascal.

    I went from an EVGA 770 super clocked to this, https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487280

    I got it when it was 289 dollars, and out of pure curiosity I'd check new reviews, prices, etc. Now it's at 599 dollars! This is either a mistake or a diamond in the rough. I've got my core clock speed at 2150 mhz, and I can't even hear it. Using 1080p this card totally owns anything you throw at it. I gotta admit that price has to be an error. I've seen it go up to 320 dollars and going out of stock multiple times. As for performance, I'm doubling and even tripling my performance in a lot of games. Vram is very important right now since the consoles use 8gb of unified memory.

    Hi all,

    Just upgraded a lot of in december last year ( looks so long ago but it was actually a month ago :) ) except the gpu part of it.
    running 2 x msi GTX 980 Ti gaming and my initial plan was to skip the 1080/1080ti and wait for the new generation hopefully comming out this year (2018), or should i just buy 1 or 2 GTX1080 Ti
    Been looking @ those ASUS Strix 1080 ti and they look mighty fine, think ive been Sli for many years now,but im playing @ 3440 x 1440 and 1 of those puppy`s perform really good in most games for what i read this far ....

    Does someone know/read somewhere what we can expect in 2018 ?

    EDIT: Just found this article,still rumours off course ...

    1080Ti is a Solid card for 3440x1440, running one myself at this resolution (3440x1440, 100hz, Gsync). Most of the games will run just fine on it, however for air cooled card you will face heating issues. Secondly titles that have SLI running will see little performance difference when you move from 980ti's x2 to 1080Ti (or even less in some cases), where you will see a major advantage is Non-SLI ready games (majority nowadays) or games that had horrid SLI scaling, and in general less issues all around.

    If you have extra cash to spare, sell 980 ti's and go for 1080 Ti, worth it. However if games you play atm run just fine for your SLI setup, I would wait. benefit is there, but its small.

    well the x80 Ti allways lauch a year after the main series, the only thing i hope is a big jump like it was from the previous 980ti or at leat like a 780ti to a 980ti.

    Had a chat about this with a guy the other day, turns out he was "holding out" for 2080Ti which he said would come this spring... that's some heavy wishful thinking right there. Like others said, with little competition from AMD, nvidia has it all covered and will give bits by bits with Volta, like they did with Pascal. So I don't realistically see a 2080Ti coming out this year, an overpriced 2080 tough, sure.

    As for 2x980Ti vs 1x1080Ti, I can tell you hands down to go for the single card solution. I've had 3 SLI builds over the years, but it's simply at such a low point right now that's it's truly not worth it anymore. I went from 2x970s to a 1070 in 2016 and couldn't have been happier. The only game where I was missing my SLI configuration was Witcher 3 (great scaling), other than that, every game I played was an improvement.

    A GTX 1180 (or 2080) with a 35% to 50% performance increase over the GTX 1080 by June 2018 followed by a GTX 1180 Ti (or 2080 Ti) by March 2019 with a 35% to 50% performance increase over a GTX 1080 Ti is what I’m expecting.

    From now on I am only upgrading to the high end Ti variant but I expect that will cost over £800 given NVIDIA’s which seems to increase by £80+ with each new high end card.

    I went from Sli Msi 980ti Gaming X to a single Msi 1080ti Gaming X and in most games i have better performance (poor SLi support) i moved away from Sli due to a poor showing in new games i am playing happily at 4K and my HTC Vive is so much
    better with the 1080ti. Cant imagine upgrading in 2018 as the 1080ti is doing everything i want i will skip a gen maybe 2.
    Hopefully NVidia will bring something that can truly Max 4k as until 4k is conquered i see no upgrade.

    Thx for the info guys,

    Went for a Asus strix 1080 ti saterday,sold the same day my gtx 980 ti sli setup.
    only had Ghost recon wildlands with build in benchmark. almost same results 1 1080 ti vs 980 ti.
    Not bad actually,my other games that didnt support sli are running sweet now (NFS payback max settings ... )

    Afther reading some info release dates i expect a 1180/2080 Ti version in 2019 somewhere.
    So thats 1 /1.5 year away,thats why i did the upgrade.

    But it will be in near future ;)
