Ummm....
You know the 1070 exists, right?
>>
>>55053015
I know i didnt realize how soon the cards came out. I thought it was gunna be at least another year. What im asking is is it worth it to return the 980 and get the 1080 or 1070?
>>
>>55053023
1070 beats a Titan X and it's gonna eventually be $380, and may drop lower if the Radeon 480 is some beast at $200 when it comes out.
So yes.
>>
>>55053081
Fuck. Are the new cards out? As in can i buy it right now?
>>
>>55053092
1070 is out. It may only be in the Founder's Edition which is like $450, and I think availability is limited so there's gouging going on. There's probably a website somewhere set up to track availability.
>>
>>55053092
They're out, but soon there will be aftermarket versions.
You goofed, but really the 980 is still a powerful card so you shouldn't feel that bad.
It's not like you bought a bad card, you just bought an outdated one.
>>
>>55053092
Return the cards and deal with a cheap burner for a couple months the base 1070 will be 380, and the 1080 base model is 610.
>>
>>55051896
>>55051896

If you paid more than $140 for it than yes, you fucked up bad.
>>
You could get the same performance out of a $200 RX 480 in two weeks time, or 20% better performance at the same price from a 1070.
