Yeah...honestly didn't expect GP102 to arrive until the fall, so I had hoped to get more time with the 1080s. Guess not.
Anyway, probably a good thing. SLI doesn't work on a lot of the games I play, so it's better for me to go back to a single card again. Hopefully one of these days I'll learn to never, ever touch SLI again.

I have control over the GPUs I buy. I have no influence over developers.

By the end of 2016 games like Total War Warhammer, DOOM (Vulkan), Deus Ex MinKind Divided, Battlefield 1, WatchDogs 2 will all take part in VEGA/GTX 1080Ti reviews. This will not be another Fury X vs GTX 980Ti back in 2015.
That's like saying Politicians are corrupt but hey what can I do, how about not voting them to power?
AtenRa, Will any Vega even be out by the end of 2016?
The earliest I can see small Vega launch is early Q1 2017. For big Vega early Q3 2017. Realistically mid Q1 2017 / mid Q3 2017 for small and big Vega respectively. GP102 will be uncontested for almost a year which is good for Nvidia but bad for gamers as they have to pay for the lack of competition.
So the 1080ti should slot in about $800 - $900 then?
Jesus Christ people. This GPU is $1,200.00. There shouldn't be any room for rationalization here. This is just stupid as all hell at this point and it's not even the full chip with hbm2 like we all know is coming.
The full chip with HBM2 you're referring to is GP100, an HPC-oriented product. It's not going to come to gamers.
I expect HBM2 to come to NVIDIA's consumer line with Volta.
Ok so you really think nvidia is giving you the best gaming pascal chip with this Titan x? I expect a full pascal chip with hbm2 to come along or at least a faster pascal GPU. This $1,200 card is a cutdown version. That's disgusting.

With the way FE sales have gone you really think Nvidia needed to price the Titan at 1080Ti levels, even if AMD had a superior (like big Vega) product? Nvidia basically created this market segment, the excuse they gave with the original Titan was that it had excellent compute (DP) & so was priced accordingly, as a cheaper alternative to Quadro, for professionals. Thereon they've not only gimped DP & yet the Titan flies off the shelves as some halo product, though now it's aimed towards gamers. AMD has nothing to with it because anyone who has top $ & wants Nvidia will get the Titan regardless of the competition.This cut down version is what would have been released as a 1080Ti if nVidia had the competition necessary for it. But they don't, so now we get a 1080Ti for a Titan price tag.
Raja! - Save us from this madness!!!!!
Tri-Fire 480's for $750!!!
Interestingly enough, I received my 4gb RX 480 Sapphire reference card last night and on the back of the box it noted support for "2-way crossfire".......

Confirmed GP102.
Designed for GDDR5X, 384 bit bus. FP64 stripped.
30-35% above GTX 1080 would actually mean it's 4K capable (60 FPS, High/Ultra) as a single GPU!
