Titan x was retailing for 1.1 lakh in india. But 1080 should be priced decently :) my titan x friend is going to be pissed.[DOUBLEPOST=1462786712][/DOUBLEPOST]BTW doom is running at 200fps so they had to scale it back to 150fps. Having more fps is a good problem to have :D

Most probably at launch prices would be like 40k for 1070 and 60k for 1080
They eventually will fall after availability

So this one is a good buy afterall . Lets see how it performs in ROTR/ Witcher 3 with Ultra settings @ 1440p/4k.

I am more curious if this is the reference card or the AIB. AIB will be able to push the card almost by 10 to 20 percent easily and maintaining the power band.
Expecting that this gives more performance to power ratio.

HAHAHAHA!! gawd damn ****ing click-bait articles. Though i already knew that they were.
I thought the 1080 was faster than 2x980tis!

Not possible. First nvidia people were not specific about the benchmarks used and detailed numbers involved. Second it will be ridiculous if the GTX1080 really gives better performance than 2x GTX 980 at its asking price. Unless they were referring to results of some particular softwares (solely for this, often they make dedicated custom drivers for such purposes). While for real-world in-game performance, I assume that the GTX 1080 Ti would give about .5x performance (at best) of the GTX 980 Ti while consuming much lesser energy-watt than the GTX 980 Ti which imo will be the main selling point besides the performance. Rumours and "leaked" benchmarks be damned. Nvidia is doing their best in making Pascal sound like its the best thing. However to me its great only on paper. And also late launch of Polaris isn't helping either. :/

May be AMD is waiting to see what pascal is all about and then think of getting some minor tweaks to get the numbers higher before they launch Polaris. Not a bad move, but definitely a delayed deal.

Actually that paragon demo was running at 60 fps, and that was pretty high tech. TIm Sweeney had mentioned that he gets around 5-6 fps on current gen technology!

Also Doom was running at 160 fps on Vulcan! :-O
