Why bother guessing? Without knowing exactly what they did and without new reviews we won't know.Not even the FE 1080 now they've fixed the fan curves - for some dumb reason the early review 1080's had a really, really passive fan curve so did drop off their boost clocks.
(So add a bit of noise to the review measurements.).
No idea about the 1070's. Not really a great idea to buy an FE anyway - the better AIB coolers will be notably quieter for the same level of cooling performance.

Just screw the fe cards anyway. They're terrible. Get a real cooler and enjoy the far superior cooling and overclocking as well as usually cheaper prices than the fe edition. Just wait for a good aib card, never compromise on your cooling solution.
There will be plenty of choices soon enough.
What are you talking about? The need for AA is directly proportionate with PPI not what the resolution is lol.
Well it's not like ppl can buy one anyways. They're sold-out everywhere inspite of the $100 extra charge. Nvidia knew demand would far outstrip supply, so can anyone blame them for adding $100 to it? Simple supply & demand economics.100% agreed. Don't buy into Nvidia's FE pricing scheme.
Wow where did I say that now? Do people have reading comprehension problems here? I said resolution alone has nothing to do with how much aliasing an image will have. A 100" 4K screen will be a jaggy mess so resolution alone is nothing.Please show us all how amazingly intelligent you happen to be, by explaining how PPI has nothing at all to do with a monitor's resolution. We'll be waiting, lol.
Finally someone who gets AA. I'm guessing ur older and remember the days when AA was marketed solely for 640×480 & 800x600. Back then AA was NOT designed for 1080p, but the marketing changed suddenly when 1080p became the norm.Not at 4k.... I would never waste performance on aa at 4k. The whole reason I run at high resolutions is to get rid of the necessity of AA. That's why I downsample especially as well.
AA is the last option you would improve at 4k resolution. Honestly if I need aa, I'm not adding it. I'm rendering at a higher resolution. Aa is such a bad excuse for rendering at a higher resolution.
The first listing shows E2914 board, which is an engineering sample with GP106 processor. According to this data, this sample would sport 6GB ‘GDD(5)’ memory:
E2914-A01 SKU0020 GP106 BRING-UP 6GB GDD FUNCTIONAL TEST PCA BOARDS, 699-12914-0020-100
The second listing could explain why there are 6GB models of GP106. It seems that GP106 could feature 192-bit memory bus:
PG410-A01 SKU0030 GP106 192B 128MX32 DP+ COMPUTER GRAPHICS CARDS, 699-1G410-0030-100
Interestingly, the memory size on PG410 board is 4GB. While both boards carry different numbers, they also have different SKUs (20 vs 30). The PG410 SKU 30 could be 4GB model, while SKU 20 would feature 6GB. Of course this is just my theory, but there might be two GP106 products in the making (apart from PG418 board shown in Drive PX 2 module).
Just for future reference you're referring to blower style cards in case you need help findinf this cooler laterI mean a reference style cooler that doesn't carry the $30+ premium for being called a "Founders Edition" card all because it has pointy edges.
If EVGA releases a Superclocked model with a reference cooler, it would be nice if it didn't list for $470 (Superclocked price + "Founders" premium). Just saying.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 to feature 6GB 192-bit memory?
That guy said you don't need AA at 4k. Now there are 24" 4K screens at one end and 50" 4K screens on the other which is btw pretty common usage difference. 4K is a resolution sold on a vast no. of sizes.Nobody, including you until this post, was discussing 100" televisions. That is called moving the goalposts, and is a tactic almost solely deployed by the losing/wrong party.

How about I reword that for you? Is your utterly brilliant mind able to come up with a way to calculate PPI, without using "what the resolution is (sic)"? If so, I'd love to hear it, lol. See, when Tential said what he did about resolution, he was assuming that you had the intellect to comprehend that that argument would only ever be made when referencing an identical, or at the very least very close to identical, sized monitor/television.
What if it's paired with 7 "GHz" memory? It would have about half the bandwidth of the 1080, and half the CC's.I keep saying this... If GP106 has a 192-bit bus, then it will have 1536 CCs. It would be a very poorly balanced card to have only half the cores of GP104 while possessing 75% bus width and ROP throughput.

1070 OC review by [H]
http://www.hardocp.com/article/2016...rs_edition_overclocking_review/1#.V17PlaJvRBg
tbh it seems very underwhelming like in the case for most GX 104 series cards. So in short if you have a good 980Ti this card can be even a bit downgrade but then again NV was not targeting 980Ti owners with this. Waiting for true 980Ti successor
When do you guys think that the prices will settle down for the 1070's? 3-6 months?
