I gotta say, Doom runs at 60 FPS without any frame drops so far... This is max ultimate detail @ 3440x1440p on an i7-6700k factory clock.

Thread should be rather called GTX 1080 inavailability. Cause the only ones available here are the FE editions from various vendors and even those in quantity like 1 MSI, 1 ASUS, 3 Zotac etc... at the largest e-shop, i assume the smaller ones dont have any stock at all.

This launch is truly disappointing. I personally want watercooled 1080. To be decided between 3 potential choices (MSI, Evga, Gigabyte). Only the Seahawk is listed at stores at this point, at exorbitant price of 925 EUROs with VAT - even if it was available, no buy at that price. Hybrid is apparently coming early July, no idea about Gigabyte. Probably even later, since it was revealed only few days ago. Not to mention i dont even want to know their price, if the reference board Seahawk is over 900 EUROs already....

If they become available sometimes come August, then i buy one or two and 3 months later Nvidia launches some version of GP102 to fight off Vega, cause the rumors of its October release turn out to be true, i will probably kill someone.

After reading that it seems silly you'd even be considering purchasing a 1080 in the first place let alone two of them.

What gpu do you currently have?

Both the 1070 and 1080 FE's are still available on the NVidia website as of this posting.

Why silly?

I currently have GTX580 - placeholder for my broken 590 since last summer.
I am going to buy not for gaming, but work - archviz rendering. I want as much performance as possible, so FE throttling to 1600 Mhz is no interest to me. If i decide to buy 2, then my only choice is watercooled card, well one at least, cause due to my mobo layout the cards are going to be next to each other. I dont really need to listen to fans screaming loud as hell, cause they have no space from where to suck the air/where to blow it.

I give it would be silly to buy if GP102 arrival looked to be imminent. With the way Nvidia presented and priced 1080, i did not think its going to happen soon - this year. But reading the Vega related rumors, you never know, their hand may be forced.

The silly part was geared towards the GP102 comment you made. Kind of made it sound like in the end you really want GP102 but don't want to wait for it. Seems like you've been waiting long enough already.

The time is money saying doesn't apply to your current gpu work? Have you just considered buying something for a stop gap and then just getting GP102 when it's launched.

Not sure when the aftermarket 1080's will be available in the end. I'd imagine the AIB's already have them in production at this time. Guess it really depends on the FE vs AIB quota NVidia implemented for the initial release time frame.

Yeah, hitting 100fps in low action zones and usually between 73-88 for the most part. Same resolution, but a little weaker CPU.

I can also state that DOOM on my Dell U3415W in rig 1 is crazy fast.:thumbsup:

  • could be nothing but ill speculate:
  • amd exec says nvidia are behind for a few months
  • nvidia, feeling threatened by polaris moves their schedule forward
  • priorities shift at tsmc and a larger partner takes more wafers/fab space-time
  • -future speculation-
  • nvidia reintroduces maxwell based skus further down to flesh out their product stack
  • press praise nvidia and dont criticize them for a rebrand
  • cycle repeats until amd goes backrupt

I don't think AMD will just go backrupt, i think intel or nvidia are simply just going to buy out the graphics part of AMD and amd will restructure to focus on mobile cpu/gpu.

Reading SA is pure fictional. Its completely decoupled with reality.

The site has been wrong over and over on everything from availability, release, performance to supply and what not else.

I'd take it with a pretty big grain of salt. If we're still at this point a month from now I'd put more stock in it, but it was pretty obvious from the onset that this was going to effectively be a paper launch with limited supply.

If Nvidia is truly limited in how many wafers that they can get it probably means a later launch for GP106 than anything else as there's little sense in them making 1060's when they can keep selling 1070/1080 at FE prices. Even if the 480 turns out better than expected, the NV loyalists will wait for the 1060.

Let's give up a large portion of the market, even the lucrative mobile segment, we can't make enough big chips anyway. And if we can't make P100 as fast as we can sell it, abandon the gaming market altogether.

The FE availability is strange. I wonder if major retailers are actually stockpiling stock before they really start to sell because newegg has had the founder edition since day 1 in bundles with a mouse or powersupply. It shows out of stock, but many people have bought it anyways and shipped to them. Even system builders have Evga non-fe for full system builds.

But they won't sell FE by itself.

I suspect nvidia has pretty much told them as much till custom cards come around to not piss off evga/msi/etc.

Nah. That's retailers out for a bit of extra profit from early adopters.

FE's by themselves are, by now, plausibly plentiful in the UK at least. The custom cards get the impression of starting to arrive but delayed by all the preorders.
