Where are they? I'm seeing an awful lot of 4K but hardly anything about 1080p.
 
Looks like (unless there is some kind of sea change moment) the 1080 should be able to max out anything at 1080p and still pull 60fps.
The original 980 was pitched as such, and does an admirable job, but this should finally be the capper on that.

I can't max out most AAA games on PC with a Titan X @1500mhz at 1080p. For instance... In GTA V I can only go up to 4x MSAA and grass on high before I hit unacceptable dips. Not having the grass set to ultra is fine but I sure would like to use 8x MSAA as it looks considerably better to me than both 4x MSAA and FXAA.

Same for me on Titan X/980Ti/R9 Fury X Still can not max out all games @1080P. Yes games run good but there still dropping below unacceptable FPS for me where I notice slows and stuttering.For some strange reason 980Ti has stuttering on single card in a few games.
Looks like GTX1080 is a great card but also I fear it will be much of the same.
Need better CPU'S.

I am rambling but a perfect example is GTA V that you point out.Yes it does run good but soon as you put on some Ultra/MSAA and hit some grassy areas FPS tanks.People will still tell you they get 100FPS and ignore the low 30-40FPS stuttering mess.I just do not get that.
People need to be told what to expect in a game, not lies.

get a better monitor as x8 msaa on 1080p is ridiculous. It tanks the fps without real improvement. 1440p with fxaa will look better than 1080p msaa, not even saying 1440p with x2 msaa which is as high as you really might need to go for the best visuals.

I have had 2 PG278Q's and a PG279Q and have had issues with all three (First two Swift's had dead pixels and the ips Swift shipped with a dead screen). I was waiting for the issues to sort themselves out. Now I'm just waiting for a decent sale on another PG279Q. I completely agree with you when you say 1440p with fxaa looks a lot better than 1080 with 8x msaa. There is however a very noticeable difference (to me) when I go from 4x msaa to 8x msaa in GTA V at 1080p... And until I get a new Swift, that matters to me.

Maybe it is, but the hit is too painful. Get Dell's S2716DG which is basically similar to PG278Q if you're not one of those IPS-hyped guys :D No quality issues, much better AG coating and a fair price.
