How is pin connector in anyway equivalent to die size. You can keep ignoring all the info you want and keep parroting your GPU name argument.
the same way die size is the equivalent to tier placement.
I like information but I like links and fact to back them first.
like this..
I say these are the proper tiers of price performance.
I looked up the prices and performance for all cards in the past 7 years.
Super high end.
gtx 590 700$ March 2011
gtx 690 1000$ May 2012
Titan 1000$ March 2013,/ gtx780ti November 2013 ,700$
Titan X 1000$ March 2015, /gtx980ti June 2015 ,700$
Titan XP 1200$ August 2016
High end
gtx580 500$, November 2010
gtx680 500$ March 2012
gtx780 650$ June 2013
gtx980 550$ September 2014
gtx1080 650$ May 2016
lower high end
gtx570 350$ December 2010
gtx670 400$ May 2012
gtx770 400$ May 2013
gtx970 330$ September 2014 ,WOW! cheap
gtx1070 400$ June 2016
Mid range
gtx560ti 250$ January 2011
gtx660ti 300$ August 2012
gtx760 250$ June 2013
gtx960 220$ Jan 2015
gtx1060 250$ Aug 2016
lower end
gtx560
gtx660
gtx750
gtx950
gtx1050
then I looked for links that back upmy claims or my tiers of price/ performance,like this.
quote from gtx680 review "
retaking the performance crown"
"Last but not least, let’s talk about pricing and availability.
GTX 680 is the successor to GTX 580 and NVIDIA will be pricing it accordingly, with an MSRP of $500. This is the
same price that the GTX 580 and GTX 480 launched at back in 2010, and while it’s consistent for an x80 video card it’s
effectively a conservative price given GK104’s die size."

quote from the gtx780 review
"The new high end"
"Meanwhile,
compared to the GTX 680 which it will be supplanting, the GTX 780 should be a big step up in virtually every way. As NVIDIA likes to put it, GTX 780 is 50% more of everything than GTX 680. 50% more SMXes, 50% more ROPs, 50% more RAM, and 50% more memory bandwidth. In reality due to the clockspeed differences the theoretical performance difference isn’t nearly as large – we’re looking at just a 29% increase in shading/texturing/ROP performance – but this still leaves
GTX 780 as being much more powerful than its predecessor."

quote from the gtx980 review.
"Today’s launch will see GM204 placed into two video cards, the GeForce GTX 980 and GeForce GTX 970. We’ll dive into the specs of each in a bit, but from an NVIDIA product standpoint these two parts are the
immediate successors to the GTX 780/780Ti and GTX 770 respectively.

quote from a gtx1080 preview.
"The base clockspeed of 1607MHz is some 42% higher than GTX 980 (and 60% higher than GTX 980 Ti), and the 1733MHz boost clockspeed is a similar gain. On paper,
GTX 1080 is set to offer 78% better performance than GTX 980,"

I'm having trouble finding any information about a 1080 being the successor to the gtx980 because of its die size, power consumption, ram amounts.
This seems to be a myth brought to you by uniformed posters.
