Nvidia announcement livestream 5/6/2016 @6PM PST

[MavericK]

He keeps saying 2x performance over Titan-X....I'll believe that when I see it.

 

[caddys83]

"What! What! I can afford that!" lol

 

[BreezeDM]

$599 like everyone expected. Why is the audience flipping out like they let loose a velociraptor? I hate everyone in the audience.

 

[ChosenUno]

$380 for 1070. Damn.

 

[MavericK]

Damn, $380 for 1070...dat pricing.

 

[AthlonXP]

380 for the GTX 1070

 

[cageymaru]

Titan X owners rejoice! There is a new King!

 

[Rvenger]

Not bad, and still faster than Titan X.

 

[Marcdaddy]

I'm so in for 3 of these!!! I wanted to order tonight thou

 

[BreezeDM]

pa pa pa paper launch ma ma

 

[Darkswordz]

Dat 1070 price though!!!

 

[Axehandler]

I'll do the 1080 Founders edition I think

 

[TaintedSquirrel]

lol that "R9 480" at $300 ain't looking so good.

 

[ChosenUno]

1070 also uses GDDR5X?

 

[MavericK]

I could see buying at LEAST a 1070 when this comes out...maybe a 1080 to replace my 970 SLI. That pricing is pretty amazing assuming it performs like they say.

EDIT: I came in a bit late...was there any talk about async compute?

 

[ChosenUno]

lol that "R9 480" at $300 ain't looking so good.

More like $200.

 

[Axehandler]

hummm 2 1070's?

 

[ChosenUno]

A bit disappointed they didn't announce a 1060Ti.

 

[DF-1]

1070 also uses GDDR5X?

No it does not. 1070 regular GDDR5

 

[Solhokuten]

He keeps saying "twice the performance of titan X", but that's only in VR scenarios, right?

Yes, according the the nvidia website GeForce GTX 1080 Graphics Card it isn't even twice as fast as the gtx 980 in regular games

 

[husker4life]

He keeps saying 2x performance over Titan-X....I'll believe that when I see it.

I think that was VR performance that was double not regular gaming.

 

[Axehandler]

I will love to see the numbers for both cards

 

[DF-1]

Yes, according the the nvidia website GeForce GTX 1080 Graphics Card it isn't even twice as fast as the gtx 980 in regular games

yeah, they would advertise that like crazy if it was twice the performance.

Its not.

 

[Accursed]

Where can I pre order!?!?!?1/1?!11!?!??1?!?!?!11!!!1?

(Yeah their marketing is working on me, and my 680 SLI is needing a dire upgrade, 1080 SLI!!!!)

 

[BreezeDM]

Yes, according the the nvidia website GeForce GTX 1080 Graphics Card it isn't even twice as fast as the gtx 980 in regular games

1.5x is still very impressive.

 

[schizo]

Did anyone find exactly what the "founders edition" includes? A specially binned GPU for overclocking, better cooling, what?

 

[Kor]

Now to wait for non hype riddled analysis.

 

[ChosenUno]

Aww, 1070 page isn't up yet.

 

[Dion]

And they repeat the same thing as the 970 and 980. Ridiculous overpriced flagship card and reasonable priced card that's probably 10fps less. For 200$ less... 1070 is the best option here.

 

[MavericK]

Check out the new SLI bridge...more bandwidth supposedly.

 

[ChosenUno]

Did anyone find exactly what the "founders edition" includes? A specially binned GPU for overclocking, better cooling, what?

Yeah, basically crazy binned parts for huge OC potential.

 

[schizo]

Yeah, basically crazy binned parts for huge OC potential.

Do you have a link substantiating that somewhere?

 

[Xerack]

what was it...$599. for 1080 and $699. for the Founders Edition 1080......and 1070 was $379 and $479. for Founders Edition....I think I got those right. With the Founders Edition being more oc'able...


**updated names / pricing**

 

[Axehandler]

Did anyone find exactly what the "founders edition" includes? A specially binned GPU for overclocking, better cooling, what?

Thats exactly what it appears like... Binned chips for better oc

 

[itsGEE!]

Great day for gamers all around the world!

 

[Lazorz_Go_PewPew]

Worth it just for the surround viewport correction

 

[ChosenUno]

Do you have a link substantiating that somewhere?

It was what JHH said, very briefly.

 

[Rvenger]

2x 1070s for me.

 

[kbrickley]

Since I just got a new 980Ti system in January I might have to wait for a bit. Are there plans for a Pascal based Titan Hydro later this year or early next? I could definitely go for that.

 

[Flogger23m]

$380 for 1070. Damn.

Too much for me. So that is how much it will cost for 1080 gaming these days? We'll never get to 1440 without needing the high end cards at this pace. I suppose any 1060 will be crap and hardly faster than my GTX 970. Will have to wait and see if AMD has a proper replacement for my card.
