Think I'm going from a 780 to a 1070.
Same exact situation I'm in.
Looks like you could make an easy 200 bucks selling the 780 on eBay today. Probably $250 if you've got the box and everything too.

SLI looks cleaner than ever
How much is fair to sell a GTX 970 for second hand? Definitely gonna upgrade, lol.
Fack, the 1080Ti is going to retail for $800 isn't it?
Any idea what 4K performance on a single 1080 will be like?
Thanks a lot!
2X over 980 and +30% over Titan X is just a fantastic improvement.

It's higher because Pascal can apparently render with up to 16 distinct projection matrices to 16 viewports in a single pass, which allows you to be significantly more efficient in VR rendering than you can on GPUs which can't do that.Question:
Nvidia CEO kept using "VR Performance" as comparison point. Is it higher because of the VR FPS-smoothing tech?
I'm just sitting here kind of stupefied letting it sink that a $379 card is faster than a Titan X. Seriously that's insane.
Ah thanks a lot.It's higher because Pascal can apparently render with up to 16 distinct projection matrices to 16 viewports in a single pass, which allows you to be significantly more efficient in VR rendering than you can on GPUs which can't do that.
How long would you say is estimated until a GTX 1080 Ti is released?
So when do these actually go on sale..like online.
It may be that for VR but not for normal games. Just take a look at the image I posted, it's way less than 2x over 980 in RottR and The Witcher III.
I bet it's just about 15-20% at most over a 980Ti.
Dammit now I'm all hyped... must... wait... for... Polaris...
So when do these actually go on sale..like online.
So for people who've done the EVGA set up program. How far after launch do they start to offer new cards?
May 27th for 1080
June 10th for 1070
But probably sold out for months

That segment was a demonstration of the performance gains you can achieve using that tech. (Of course, a sample which heavily biases into that technology's favour, but it's still really awesome in the real [VR] world)Ah thanks a lot.
I got confused earlier when he switched to the monster and FPS segment, didn't know it was the same multi-projection tech.
I assume that the engines have to be.Do the games have to be specifically coded to support that?

So what do the Founder Editions include?

Think of how tiny a 1070 card could be.Less than I hoped performance wise but less than I thought price wise. I'll have to see how the OC editions will perform compared to 980TiOC to decide if I want to upgrade.
The chip is less complex than you could think from the die size. 2560 SPs is a really low number for a chip of 7.2B of transistors though - I wonder if the FP64 performance is kept at 1/2 FP32 like in GP100?
9TFlops is a nice figure for a stock clocks though - +50% to TitanX. If the card will be able to OC to 2100MHz on factory OC models that'd bump the pure math power to 10.75 TFlops. Not bad for what is a lower high end card.
1070 on the other hand gets quite a decimation with 6.5 TFlops. If the clocks will be roughly the same (which they're likely to be judging from 970 vs 980) they'll have to chop nearly 1/3 of the chip off to get there. So I'm thinking - 1920 SPs on ~1.7GHz? Seems like quite a salvage there but for $379 I don't think that anyone would mind.
As for the proper benchmarks - I'm guessing on May 27th? Still don't see why they even announced the cards today tbh.
Is this shit even going to be necessary for 1080p gaming?
