Upcoming GPUs (2016)

[MiRai]

The GTX 1080 reviews and benchmarks have begun to surface since the NDA was lifted earlier today. It looks to be 20-30% faster than 980Ti/Titan-X*, which, in my opinion, was expected.

*Unless you are willing to overclock, which then you can expect more performance, but may be limited by thermals.

I will be continuing to update the reviews slowly as they trickle out.

Also, as for pricing, it does seem that custom GTX 1080 boards (e.g. non-reference) will not be available until after Computex, so people will be paying the premium $700 price tag if they want an early version of the GPU.

I suspect that this approach is NVIDIA's way to milk early adopters - in the first weeks there will be only the Founders Edition available, until board partners come out with their custom designs, which will be well after Computex. I'm also worried that this could tempt board partners to pick $699 as baseline for their custom design products and that we'll see very few if any cards at $599. All this is quite unknown though at the moment, so let's wait a bit and see what happens.
