2 cards a rarely worth it in gaming, especially since the compatibility wildly varies between games.

I'd wait until the new AMD card comes out before making a choice, but If you hold me at gunpoint I'd say a 1070.

well after being bulldozered with an fx 6100 im a bit salty about AMD's claims... bought an fx8370 to survive till the 2nd gen Zen, my r9 280x could be able to hold it. i have an unstable win7 install tho, and i might have killed my MOBO overclocking the last CPU. wasnt aware of the risks of running an overclock 24/7

not always, they just misinformed everyone about the bulldozer architecture and the cluster thread thingy was obsolete as soon as they launched it. they had some marketing bloke as CEO, now they needed 5 years to recover from the faildoser incident... im hoping for an affordable 16 core (with proper software to utelise that, but 8core is hard enough to code for appearantly..).

There are games from 3 years ago that look substantially better than U4, you just play them on hardware that was substandard half a decade ago.

quadcore cpu s have been the minimum for gaming for about 3 years now, yet only some games utelise that many cores TODAY. somewhere in all the different layers of codes and stuff something seems to be pretty hard about more than 2 cores for games... and im on windows 7, wich doesnt utelise every bit of octacore i ve got right now either.

Do you guys think titans or other good shit will drop below $300 once the 1070's and 80's start filling the market?
>>
>>690258387
yeah it will
but why would you buy a titan?
1070 is better than this outdated overpriced vga
in any aspect you can think.

below $300?

I just found an evga gtx 980 for 500$. I dont even need a video card and i thought about it. So thats what you should get

Im running some old Radeon junk right now. Anything would be lightyears better than what i have. If a new titan is half the price of a 1070 I might just get that

start with gtx 1080 and go lower in price until you can afford it without any regret for your money

the price will drop but not below 300

this news doesnt cite the titan but it will get a price cut.

Wait for the ti, even if you don't pick it up. It'll be out in November for the same price as the 1080 maybe $50 more. The 1080 will drop to about $500. All for Holiday season

>>690257085
Agreed. If only they actually made PC games anymore. Consoles handicap games for the same of cross platform accessibility. AKA $$$
>>
>>690261149
No I do, been wanting 1080 since my 6700k. But it's nice out here, so I won't be gaming much until fall anyway. Also, the ti should be able to handle 4k. gp102 should be significantly better, and might have HBM2. They planned it for 10xx cards, but had to fall back to GDDR5 because of cost and low production.
>>
>>690261852
>4k
1080 pretty much can handle 4k dont achieve 60fps all the time but that thing is a ferocious beast

>>690254860
Indeed, what this faggot said. Don't go for sli/crossfire, it's veeery rarely worth it and for many games it gives you no performance increase and some games it even decreases performance, you'd be better off with a single, more expensive, card.
>>
>>690252352
Don't buy shit for the next 2 months. Let the 10xx series saturate the market and the new AMD cards to hit. Should drop prices nicely.
>>
>>690262234
Yeah, well if I'm going to drop $700 on a card, I'm not going to settle for "pretty much". The ti should be about 30% more powerful and it'll have more (maybe significantly faster) RAM for the same price. Just a few months to wait.

honestly if their stock price keeps going the way it is now, you guys can just put the money in their stock, and by November they'll have bought the card for you.
>>
>>690262799
NVDA is up 40% in the last 3 months, and 115% in the last year.

Do you really believe people have to upgrade their cards every year?

it's only like once every 4 years that a game comes out that wants a better card, and even then, it'll still run because PC games support different graphics settings

and it's been slowing down since 2010. we're almost starting to hit the upper limit of what your typical GPU/CPU can push out, and devs can hardly put out enough detail to catch up with the hardware (usually because they're simultaneously developing for consoles and care about sales).

unless you're running a 4k 120+fps rig or the game is really poorly optimized, you'd be hard pressed to find a game that currently only runs on top-of-the-line cards
