Sounds like the 1070 is the fools choice. 1080 or 980ti, if you must buy a new card now.

You guys think the 980Ti or 1070 will be better for VR.
Horribly phrased.
Let me try again. Which card would be better for VR?

Probably because they are the only 8 core CPUs slow enough sequentially for parallelization to be at all beneficial in current gaming scenarios.
1070: 1920 cudacores
1080: 2560 cudacores
1080ti: 3840 cudacores!
How is "how you want" ?
You already have the expensive monitor and if you plan to keep it 2-3 years it seems reasonable anyway.
Depends on if it gets up to 2000mhz boost when ocd like the 1080.
The 1080 also looks worse than the 980 ti other than clock speed, but the performance is there.
Are there any rumors regarding when the 1080ti is set to launch? My 770 is looking long in the tooth and might be ready to be put out of its misery.
1080 is a 300sqmm chip. 980ti is a 600sqmm chip. I think 3840 cores is a conservative estimate. If 1080ti is a 600sqmm chip could it have over 5000 cuda cores??
If it is close to a 980 ti it's not a bad choice, 2gb of extra vram is nice. I would wait on 1440p and 4k benches though with that low memory bandwith.
One reviewer said that there's space on the board for it. Then again, maybe it was intentional?
I think the 1070 would be the perfect choice for 1440p but it gonna melt at 4k.
Witcher 3 performance seems particularly good on 1080. Basically a 100% jump from a 970 at higher resolutions.
Which is a good thing, as TW3 is one of the few "high-end" games I'd actually like to play when I get a new card.
Question...
Is SLI/Crossfire still a pain in the ass? Thinking about maybe two 1080's....don't think I can wait for a Ti variant assuming there is one. My 680 is getting tired.
So with all the talk of the 1070 operating at 980 ti levels, would it be a smart idea to buy a 290x for $150 or a 390 at $200?

No way. Even if it is slightly weaker than a 980 Ti at launch, it will be faster in a few months because of driver optimisations and newer games using DX12. Remember the 780 Ti.
With you I can gladly say the point of my post was to be aware of how many years you intent to keep your purchase, because history is showing a severe lack of optimization on high end geforce cards once new models enter the market.

I feel dumb, didn't make this connection until you pointed it out. Totally obvious.The size does not matter. It's about the hints. They gave the 1070 card 1920 cudacores to hint that it is a 1920x1080p monitor card. While the 1080 is a 2560x1440p monitor card with 2560 cudacores. And the TI is going to be 3840x2160p card with 3840 cudacores. It's only natural progression.
Wait for the 1070 benchmarks, then decide?Looking to upgrade my gtx 970.
Do you experts think I should go with a used gtx 980 ti or wait for the gtx 1070?
Hard to decide.

Well, I appreciate the new features of the pascal architecture, so I'd rather spend some extra money for the 1070.Probably a good idea haha
But just on your intuition at this point, what do you think?

EDIT: Why are all the benchmarks for Witcher 3 done with SSAO?
Is HBAO+ Nvidia exclusive? If they're doing benchmark comparisons, it'd make sense to have consistent settings.

Hmm, this doesn't seem impressive at all. seems like I might have to go for the 1080.
Not an expert, but this dosn't look too good?
In a lot of aspects looks even worse than a 980, less cuda cores, less SM's, etc..I know new architecture and all and that that data dosn't tell the full history, but isn't a bit dissapointing considering the price?.
1070 specs are disappointing. Definitely waiting for HBM2 now.

What the hell am I reading? Do you guys know anything I don't cause these comments don't make any sense. It's a 380$ card with around 980Ti performance, that's about it. Not impressive enough? How are you jumping to the conclusion that it's a bad card? (or even below a 980)
