That's nonsense. People who will pay $400 for a gpu will pay $400. If they can't afford more, they can't afford more. Nvidia won't price themselves out of their market. There's high end, mid, low. I can't see them raising the price of each tier by much."Last time" was the final cycle of an old tech.
This is the first cycle of a new tech.
When he said how much they spent on R&D what he actually meant was:
And now customers will pay for it.
Anyone remember those demo program things they used to release with new cards to show off tech?
Do they still do that? I always like to download the older ones and run them to make me feel better about myself, lol...
I'm really hoping this is around 750.
No way.
If that performance/watt chart is even remotely indicative of reality, they aren't going to sell this card for anything close to $600.
Because further increasing performance is getting increasingly difficult, expensive, and time-consuming. The steps will be increasingly farther apart in time. We have already seen that. That means they need something new to sell in between -- either new tech or older tech at price levels which reach new customers.
Anyway, we'll know soon!
Not impressed with this
That clock
Not impressed with this
what does this even mean? A 1080 is vaguely 4 1/3 power and the Titan X is roughly 3 3/5 power? what's the power difference?!?!?!!!??!!??!?!
crap
we're going to have to wait on reviews for that information, aren't we?
