What will be the 1060's price point?
430 dollahs
A very affordable $299.
How come Intel can only crank out 16 cores but Nvidia can do 1280
>>55410234
Because GPU's are much bigger than CPU's
>>55410234
ayy lmaoooo
some very untrustworthy sources said "anywhere between 180-230 dollars for the 6gb version".
Imagine a 3gb 1060 for 150 dollars.
It would be the people's hero.
>>55410317
Newegg had a 980 on sale for $280 after rebate and the 1060 is supposed to perform around to 980 so it'll probably be about that price.
980 level performance is just worth ~$300 on the current market. So if the performance holds the price will too.
>>55410213
>unironically buying a 1060
We have no idea yet. Every answer so far is just rumors and speculation.
Screen cap this post. It'll be slightly more expensive than an rx 480 and slightly more powerful than it too.
will 1060 be better than 980 ti?
>>55410439
Unironically using a trip code
They might got $200 for the 3GB to ensure AMD gets kicked in the balls. With a 192-bit bus I sort of doubt it though.
>>55410578
No, the 980ti is too close to the 1070, it'd cannibalize sales if the 1060 was that close to the 1070.
>>55410439
>bempoerlist !SlpFkyxufI
literally who
>>55410511
>slightly
well, 15% isn't considered "slightly" in my opinion family
1070:
Zotac AMP! or Palit Super JetStream?
Please decide for me now so I can go to bed.
Expect to wait 2-3 months for it to actually hit it's MSRP.
>>55410213
3GB AiB MSRP $220
6GB AiB MSRP $260
3GB FE $250
6GB FE $330
Good luck finding one for MSRP though.
>>55410213
350 shill'ings
A few cents cheaper than the 1070. It's Nvidias way of saying "we monopoly now, if you can't pay $500 for our cheapest card, better buy a console"
>>55416191
I thought the 1070 was supposed to be like $379
>>55410213
$250 for 3gb
$280 for 6gb
>>55416191
Well they do have to compete with the 480, at least until the 480 kills too many motherboards and gets recalled
>>55416337
how many mobos has it killed now?
got a source?
>>55410213
At least $300. People who think it's going to be lower are delusional.
>>55416398
So far the 10 series has all just been $50 more than the 9 series.
960 was $200, therefore the 1060 will be $250
>>55416505
Horse shit. Nvidia's fake lower MSRP that nobody actually adhered to counts for nothing. The reality of the pricing has been a $100+ increase over the 900 series.
And we've already had the owner of the largest UK PC components retailer state that it's going to cost £300 there. The UK prices are roughly 1:1 to the dollar ones right now, so it'll be $300.
>>55416561
All cards sell over the MSRP on release because demand is so high. MSRP is just recommended price, nothing you can do about that.
The pattern still stands though, they are adding $50 to the next generation of their cards every time.
970 was $330, 1070 is $380 (+$50)
980 was $550, 1080 is $600 (+$50)
960 was $200, 1060 will be $250 (+$50)
>>55416735
That's not the MSRP though, you didn't add the FE tax on top of it (since that's where the actual MSRP stands)
>>55416838
That is the MSRP
See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce_900_series
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce_10_series
>>55416735
1080 Ti when
>>55416838
What the fuck is FE tax?
In america you apply taxes at sales point.
>>55416873
So when's the non-founders reference cards coming out?
oh, what's that? never?
Founders is the new MSRP. There's no lower price any seller would ever reasonably charge.
>3gb and 6gb versions
Why do they do this? What kind of consumer would think "yeah, 3gb is plenty, who needs 6gb"? Wouldn't it be cheaper for them to just produce a single 6gb version?
>>55416930
Founder's Edition.
>>55416944
Well 3gb is enough for 1080p. RAM isn't free you know, they can't just make a 6gb at the same price.
>>55416934
Prices are being gouged because demand is so high. Same applies to all recent video cards released including the 480. Sad but true. Once there are more available retailers will not be able to get away with this crap.
>>55416909
Maybe in about 7 months
>>55416971
>3 GB is enough for 1080
I break 3+ GB ram use in 1080 in GTA V, my modded Fallout 4, and some people say they've hit 4 in Witcher 3.
It's enough for 95% of 1080 currently, but why limit yourself?
>>55410234
Intel can do 72
>>55416909
There's Titan P.
>>55410213
too much for me to care
>>55410213
599$ plus tip
Spoiler. The 1060 is 15% faster than the 480 [spoiler]in The Witcher 3 and Rise of the Tomb Raider with gimpworks on[/spoiler].
>>55417291
RAM usage is not a good measurement of performance impact. RAM is used for caching, so when you go over the limit, it just swaps in and out. It's only with extreme swapping that you run into issues.
Pic related, a benchmark from GTA V, showing how 2GB to 4GB of RAM makes almost no difference in performance.
>>55410234
nvidia cores are pretty limited compared to cpu cores
$299 MSRP
$400 real life price
>>55417490
what resolution and how many mods
>>55416934
yup. my room mate's father's son who lives with me works at nvidia. the reference cards = founders edition.
>>55417940
I worked at nvidia once on a large scale IT project when I was an IT contractor.

I vowed I wouldn't upgrade video cards until HBM2, now why are they still planning new video cards with outdated technology?
>>55418080
same
>>55418082
Yea cuz nobody is producing HBM2 in sufficient quantities. You should be glad they didn't release HBM2 cards. Otherwise you'd be paying like 2000 dollars for a card.
>>55418082
1. Because HBM2 is currently expensive and in low quantities.
2. Because you need a certain level of performance before HBM2 sees real gains over GDDR5
This makes it not suited for current mid/low end cards.

Memory is, and has been for the past 40+ years, the major limiting factor in processing speed.
>>55417291
>some people say
Those people would be lying. Witcher uses like 2 at the most.
>>55418927
at 1440 it uses like 11
Not fucking kidding
Likely 20% more than a 480 to position it as a premium product
>>55418542
960 was $200
>>55417919
1080p maxed out
>>55416191
But you can already buy Gigabyte non ref 1070 for $399 anon.
>>55419923
But I play it in 1440p/ultra and it doesn't even reach 2 gigs anon.
>>55410317
>3gb vram in 2016
r u retarded? with a new video card people are going to want to play new games and if you want the game to look half decent, high/ultra settings on demanding games will most likely require atleast 4gb.
>>55410213
$199
AMD on suicide watch, they takin too many L's
>>55420332
Really? fucking help. Im kinda new to this stuff and either i have a huge problem or im reading this wrong
>>55420700
Hello there friend, do not fret - your output simply does not include video memory; only system memory.
That 8856 MB is made up of everything running on your computer, and although some of it is graphics data (kind of a swap file for your video card), it is not your actual video memory usage.
>>55420406
>$199
>3GB
>>55420406
wrong, it will be $159 for the 3GB and $199 for the 6GB.
this will be the final blow for MAD
>Power Connectors: 1x 8-pin required
Hnng finally gonna get the 1600Mhz 480 we were promised AMD familia
It will be $250 at the lowest, no way they will go under that.
>>55420852
>finally gonna get the 1600Mhz
Why do you post thing like that?
The card is not out, it's not tested why do you fucking retards post shit like that then when is come out you find out its around 1350Mhz and the you look so stupid.
>>55420945

Paxwell a shit.

There is literally nothing wrong with consoles.
>>55416561
Using Overcunts as a source.
>>55412668
Referring strictly to your image,
If you compare it by price that's pretty impressive.
25% better than last year's $200-230 cards at similar power levels is nothing to scoff at. Nvidia did manage fairly better (if we assume both the 1070 and 980 are $450 or $370 at the time of testing) at roughly 32%, but it's an entire price bracket above.
>inb4 PCIe draw complaints
Apparently getting resolved with a firmware upgrade soon
>inb4 cant inb4 your own post
If I dont nobody will. This is a troll board.
>>55420980
You tested it? If not link me to who did.
it'll be $250 msrp, which realistically means $300 at the bare minimum after retailer price gouging, plus another 33% or so for anyone unfortunate enough to not live in the USA. Not bad but not an rx480 killer
>>55420852
>familia
You're the type of idiot that makes AMD enthusiasts look retarded in this board
>>55421096
It will be $30 more than a 480 at both memory amounts, any more will kill sales and AMD has Nvidia by the throat with their earlier release. Nvidia cannot price to close to $300, the performance wont be there to justify it for consumers.
230/260 (nvidia msrp for non FE cards) for 3/6GB models or I will eat my burning earth tek syndicate hat and post the webms of doing it.
I'm betting $249, screenshot this.
Between 1070 and 1080
novice here
are any price drops likely from nvidia or AMD after the GTX 1060 comes out?
>>55410225
That's very affordable
>>55421018
Rebranding and discounting prices on gcn for the fourth time isn't impressive lad. We've seen the same 2048 core architecture drop from high end to mid range to low end and get a node change and now its bargain bin on the rx 470.
>>55421144
>Nvidia cannot price to close to $300
They'll price it at exactly$299 and you'll eat it up.
>the performance wont be there to justify it for consumers.
The 480 OCs like dogshit, the 1060 is already a tier faster at 1600 or whatever garbage they set the stock clock. It won't even be close at 2000.
I wish the 480 were better, I wish it clocked at 1600mhz, I wish they had gone with 2560 cores and 64 rops, but its a budget pos that barely beats the 3 year old 290.
