Looks like all the hype was not true! The fact is..it was UNDER hyped >> 1080GTX
2x as fast as a Titan X and 3x the efficiency!
R.I.P. AMD!

Unfortunately, he didn't specify what he was talking about. VR? Non-VR? DX12? All games today?Quote:

EDIT: I actually moved these posts into their own thread.
EDIT2: There was actually a leak (supposedly) of how well the GTX1080 performs in 3DMark, and you can see that it's a little faster than a 980Ti, so real world benchmarks will give everyone a much better perspective.
Yea. But it was exciting to see the all the new features. I'm looking forward to reviews.
I'm going to stick to my original plan, grab a second 980 TI when everybody starts selling theirs and the price for one secondhand drops like a stone. Should keep me in good shape at least until the 1080 TI is released.
I believe the 2x Titan X performance was for VR only due to VR functions built into the card. The drivers for the 9XX and Titan X have finally matured and I am catching up on AAA titles in my steam library. No way I am going to screw up good running drivers for new hardware right now. :)
Quote from Engadget
"The GTX 1080 will be available for $599 on May 27, and you can also snag a special NVIDIA-designed "founders edition" for $699 (which looks like it includes a stylish new cooler). Almost as an afterthought, NVIDIA also revealed that the GTX 1070 is coming on June 10 for $379 (the founders edition will run you $449)"
interesting pricing being that the Titan was $1000, may just have to get one of these. :)
Now I just need a UK release date. Glad I held off on ordering my new PC. Still 2 months until I order but looking promisingQuote:
