NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti announced at GDC

game4it70

$699 is lower than I'd of guessed for Nvidia.It also has 11GB of GDDR5X which i find very odd.Why 11?

Something something cut down card. Maybe they could have done the full 12, but it would have been another 3.5GB 970 type thing.

Be interesting to see what happens GTX1080 prices over this side now.

K.O.Kiki

I'm guessing this is why AMD was so lightweight on details for RX Vega last night.

I'm expecting them to do a Sony: walk on stage, "$599", drop the mic.

1080 prices had been dropped to $499 so expect to see some bit of a price drop in the next week or so. I'm looking at the asus 34" g sync widescreen and now thinking of the 1080 ti as it should be the same price as existing gtx 1080's

Icyseanfitz

trying to shift my 1080 to get one of these or possibly vega (any release on that yet?). the 1080 can do 4k but its not always at 60fps so hoping the ti will be able to pull that off.

Noxin

Gonna look into selling off my 1080 as well once I have some prices on the Ti's. If I can offset by a decent amount I will grab a new one.

Icyseanfitz

They took a nice battering in resale yesterday with price cuts on new, I'd say between 500-600 is what a 1080 will make now and the hassle of trying to sell it ugh

I'd be happy enough with 500 to be honest. Anything more would be a bonus.
I bought it off OCUK before their price hike with brexit an all that jazz.

Samuel T. Cogley

Told ya there'd be no 490 :pac: (under a different name)

Does anyone know if EVGA will do a step up to the Ti or will I just sell her on adverts?

What was the launch price of the 1080 in $ btw can anyone remember?

I sold my full system so its irrelevant but at the time I also paid around €650 a piece for 2 Palit GTX1080 Jetstreams, and at the time they came with 2 codes for Gears of War 4 which I sold instantly for €30 each - so it was 620 per card, if I got 500 now - which should be pretty easy to achieve - I'd be delighted!

The only problem is the 2nd hand market is not so kind to premium models, so if you spent 750 on a higher end model, you're likely gonna have to accept a much bigger hit.

Icyseanfitz

i think the founders edition was $699 but could be wrong

This is faster than the GDDR5X used on the Titan X and original GTX 1080, so in order to bring later 1080 adopters up to speed, the GTX 1080 will now start shipping with 8GB of faster 11Gbps GDDR5X VRAM.

http://www.kitguru.net/components/graphic-cards/matthew-wilson/the-gtx-1080-is-now-100-cheaper-and-comes-with-faster-ram/

Its interesting to see newer Gtx 1080's will contain faster ram than existing Gtx 1080's. I wonder will their be a noticable difference in performance?

Headshot

Tempted to sell my 2x 980ti for a 1080ti but would like to read up on some comparisons.

Nothing to read yet it seems

I dont see any running at 11GHz, obviously the 11 might run at 12.5 and 12.5 v 10? Dunno

I was gonna wait for the 1080ti and get the asus pg34q but decided against it because of ips issues . Went for the dell g sync monitor and got a msi 1080 and one of those noble chairs.
That will do me until the next gen of ips monitor comes out.. whenever that is

When are the partner cards available for sale? I dont want an FE model. Thinking Asus ROG or EVGA FTW3.

They just have available for pre-order, so doesnt really help. That site is a pure rip off usually anyway and their customer service is a joke. I avoid them if I can.

Prices are very competitive I find, I found customer service to be very good, each to their own I gues

It is when you have a problem you will find out. Their attempts to try and ignore the Sale Of Goods Act and Distance Selling regulations is criminal. They are one of those companies, like Currys, who think their "Company Policy" is more important than the law. Cowboys.

TerrorFirmer

I find them pretty good on offers and service from experience, I buy most of my stuff from them.

Icyseanfitz

sold my 1080 and ill probably end up buying one of the water cooled versions of the 1080ti. Tempted to wait and see what amd have to offer but what are the chances they have a single card solution better than a 1080ti??? is their a time frame for their high end gpu release?

Nothing concrete yet, RX Vega release between April-June.

Wouldn't mind waiting tbh, except my 390x is acting all types of strange, hitting 94c @ 100% fan in bf1 wonder how long it will last before going explody

Undervolt it!

Serephucus

Reseating/repasting the cooler might also be an idea.

Icyseanfitz

Tried to limit the temps with afterburner but they won't stick once I apply them, stuck at +94 which might explain the 94c I'm hitting I'll try to undervolt it, any suggestions on how much? Sorry for derailing the thread

Think I might just go for one if I can sell my 1080 for a good wedge.

Icyseanfitz

Sold my own 1080 for 520, tbh was happy with that even though could probably made a little more if I was willing to wait longer

Probably similar to this (using AMD's Wattman application)

Was on the phone all morning to Asus, EVGA etc and none of them have any info at all relating to when the good versions are coming out. When I spoke to OCUK they said they were expecting them in May. So I got bored waiting, I ordered an MSI FE one from Scan, they have 7 left in stock if anyone else is looking.

Am I right in thinking the FE variants are all identical except for badges and possible warranty period?

I doubt the high end RX Vega will beat the 1080ti but you never know. They are releasing a dual gpu model as well though which will be their equivalent of a titan probably priced close to a grand.

If you are gaming at 4k and using 4k textures then the titan or 1080ti is the card to go for because of the extra memory. The single gpu vega 10 will be more than good enough for 1440p/144Hz though.

I found out something interesting that I didn't know from using Unreal Engine 4 though.

Your monitor can only display a texture at a resolution the monitor can display or else it get's mipped down to a lower resolution. So using 4k textures is pointless on a 1080p screen and even to a certain extend on 1440p unless the texture covers a large object that is only partially visible.

If you can see the entire object that's using a 4k texture at a screen resolution or space that's lower than the texture then it will mip down to 2k or 1k or lower.

This might only be the case with UE4 for performance reasons but it makes sense for all engines to do this.

How is this relevant? If you are gaming at 4k and your going to download a load of high res texture packs which more and more PC games have these days then you need a load of graphics memory. There's games out there using upwards of 8GB already and this is going to get even higher as 4k becomes mainstream.

Yeah I was a watching your ad to see what you'd get for it. Problem I have is I've nothing to fall back on if I sell mine now so I'd be cardless until I could get my hands on a TI Plus I don't want a FE version so I have to wait for the custom cooler versions to be released, buy one and then sell my 1080. And if the launch is anything like the 1080 launch we could be waiting a long time for decent levels of stock of TI to be available!

A hassle!

yup, i was lucky to have a 390x (slightly defective so ive never resold it). Same as yourself though, waiting for the good versions to come out, hopefully it wont be as stupid as the 1070/1080 release

I did it with mine and it made a massive difference.
Go into afterburner or trix and set the voltage to negative. Try it with -25 and if its stable, try it with -50, then -96 and see if it works. Should drop your temps a good bit without impacting the card.

I'm in the same boat. I'll have to buy the new card (if I bite the bullet) and then try to sell the 1080 afterwards.
Gibbo over at OCUK announced that custom cooler cards will first arrive in the beginning of April with most orders filled by the end.

Any particular version you're looking at ? I'm thinking the Gigabyte one myself cos its a bit cheaper than the others!

tazzzZ

I got my 1080ti FE yesterday. boosts up to ~2000mhz can drop as low as 1900 when temps start to increase but can also go as high as 2088. ram at just under 12ghz. temps never go above 70 degrees in my case atm. not sure why it throttles at all at that temp but it does a bit. fan curve i have never gets too loud for me so thats a bonus but i have put the fan speeds up more and it can be loud. thankfully my temps are reasonable on the lower speeds.

Either way the FE is a beast as is. I can only imagine how nice the aftermarkets will be.

Mindfactory appears to have some Inno3D custom cards in stock...

MSI gaming X. She's a beaut with the 1080 so I'd expect the same for the TI. When in OC mode it would be difficult to squeeze much more juice from it so I don't bother and it's nice and quiet.

Icyseanfitz

Over at the overclockers forum gibbo (high level staff I presume) is saying the ones to go for for the 1080ti will be inno3d, zotac, and evga. Personally hoping to get an evga hybrid water cooled card myself, anyone know how the 980ti + 1080 hybrid cards performed for overclocking

TerrorFirmer

My go to is almost always Inno's iChill range. Usually among the cheapest models but absolutely rock solid construction with amazing cooling and high clocks out of the box.

What would be the best 1080Ti?

Basically the most powerful?

They were pushing the Palit ones alot too in the 1080 range and they seemed to be good cards. My whole pc is red/black so MSi is the best one for me but I like the evga, gigabyte and zotac cards too. Inno3d coolers are bloody huge so you need space.

Review of the Asus 1080ti is up. First review I've seen for a card that's not Founder's Edition. Draws 15% more power than Founders but doesn't overclock any higher.

same as with the red and black, had a evga ftw 1080 with the rgb set to either red or white (ive 4 sticks of led ram, 2 white, 2 red :pac:)

the ichilll x3 has been reviewed as well LINKY

temps and noise don't seem great...

Gibbo also ****ting on MSI service at the moment on ocuk which is weird. Makes me a little worried about how much effort they're gonna put into their ti cards. Dunno if they're concentrating on Ryzen now or what the story is.

I've read from various sources that MSI customer service is hit-and-miss - sometimes, you'll get EVGA-level service, othertimes they try to give you the runaround or even ship you back broken hardware.
