When do the new Pascal cards come out? Should I wait before building my gaymin PC? I'm going for the 960 price range.

For the 960 price range you could probably buy now and not be ripped off. If you go for a 980 at this point though, you're an idiot.
>>330543871
They should be just a few months away at this point, probably around june-july-ish
AMD's are launching on a smaller process. Does this mean they'll be cheaper and cooler than NVidia's?
Are these cards a worthy upgrade from a 970?

Literally GOOD GOYIM!

>Are these cards a worthy upgrade from a 970?
We won't know that until they're out, but who the fuck buys a new GPU for every minor little generation?

>new process
>new architecture
>'minor little generation'
Besides which, I've two gaming PCs. one a main one, one a bedroom HTPC. I'll pass the 970 down if I upgrade.

I am going to give you a tip senpai. The arrival of pascal won't magically shrink all nvidia prices because the mass consumer won't buy it, with the exception of a few retards. Do humanity a favor and buy an amd gpu.

nvidiashill gtfo, enjoy your gayworks cancer

The only new chips are fury/nano the others are all just rebranded chips.
And the fury/nano performance isnt really anything worth writing hom, with its only real advantage being having 8gb vram for 4k(which still can only be played at 30fps at best), about if you already own a 970/290 or higher

>2016
>still no HBM for NVIDIA
AAHAHAHAHHAAHHAAHAH
Wait what the fuck is NVLink? Are these jews really making their own proprietary connection to replace PCIE3.0?
Fuck NVidia so fucking hard the fucking jews.

>HBM
>Only 4GB
Kek.
>>330545697
cards coming out this year will have 8GB HBM since it's HBM2
>>330545623
Calm down tardy it's for people building supercomputers to facilitate uniform computing
>>330545770
NVIDIA will have HBM2 cards too, the exclusivity of AMD was only with the HBM1 tech.
>>330545876
Nah, It's almost as terrible as new Intel CPUs only supporting Windows 10.
Technology's future is dark.
>>330545909
Aren't they only having GDDR5? or is that just rumours?
>>330546061
Both, GDDR5 on low/mid range cards and HBM for the high end ones. The HBM2 chips are supposed to be being supplied by Samsung.
