Did an interview Newegg
MOVIN ON UP

 

[jim2point0]

Um, why is there a google cache available of IGN India's 980 review?

http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...ew+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&client=firefox-a

And apparently there's a 980 TI?

fake interview for game 24 event. Guy with MSI has a 970 box in hand.

Guessing that's just a typo since he only says that once in the intro.

If you didn't push him onto his ass, grab the 970 and run off to benchmark it for us?
ban imo

ot: took a shower before bed now I can't sleep... guess I'm watching this...

Fooood

 

[CyberPunked]

Can I get a link for the stream?

 

[mkenyon]

OP yo.

*edit*

Wait wrong thread. So yeah, that link.

For the Aussies, PCCaseGear have a 98o and a 970 up for sale already. $800 and $519 respectively.

Looks like I'm getting one or two 970s. Fuck the 980 price.

Just saw that. I don't think $800 is too bad. I'll wait til they have more than one manufacturer on there, though.

 

[jim2point0]

Dynamic Super Resolution? 4K quality on a 1080p display? Wow. How is that even possible?

 

[Hazaro]

I need people to post info in here since I can't watch the stream lool

Tom is benevolent.

Is that the right word?

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

I may need to find a way to get a 980 imported from 'Murricuh. Maybe Smokey can help a brother out. Pacific coast -> postage is cheapest I'm assuming.

800 AUD is a biiiit steep.

Just go for two 970s. Way better value.

Find a Gafer willing to go to Australia with a GPU in their checked luggage, someone you can trust with your mailing address.

 

[Hazaro]

Speech is alright so far

It's not.

Different name for super/down sampling?

 

[Dictator93]

Guyyyyyssssss go over to the other thread.

 

[jim2point0]

Yes... that was my point

This is just silly PR nonsense for something we could do since 2011. Maybe sooner for all I know.

 

[killatopak]

What's the best bang per buck out of these new models?

 

[Grief.exe]

What's the best bang per buck out of these new models?

GTX 970

Probably going to be the best performance/price card on the market.

I'm in Texas, but if it's crazily priced down there get at me and we can work something out.

Thanks. When it releases, is it just reference cards or do they come out with non-reference cards too?

From the leaks, it seems that they have non-reference cards ready to go as well.

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

~720 USD or so.

How much is postage for a graphics card sized object

Just go for two 970s. Way better value.

Don't want to do SLI, only have a 650w PSU and there may not be room in my case (not sure, I'm running a Prodigy so there may be but who knows).

Welp, you weren't kidding. And that is just for the reference model. I shudder to think what the non-reference pricing will be.

I was looking forward to get 2x 980 to replace my 5850 :-\

[gblues]

I cynically expect the 980 to be 550 or 600 euros and the 970 to be 400-450, and I will probably be right. (you can quote me on this when the prices are revealed)

If you want the best experience, the fastest speeds, DirectX 12 support, and image quality-enhancing features that just work, the new GeForce GTX 980 and GeForce GTX 970 are your best options. Pick up your very own GeForce GTX 980 for $549 MSRP from your favorite e-tailer or retailer starting Friday, September 19th, or the GeForce GTX 970, which starts at $329 MSRP.

Right on the money for the 980, the 970 actually comes in cheaper (and since Nvidia tends to do $1 = 1 euro I expect the EU prices to be about the same). Good call!

Amazon ships select hardware components internationally, including GPUs. I imported an EVGA 670 back in 2012; express shipping was USD$18.32, which is likely cheaper than what anybody here is going to be able to do.

How about customs? Thinking about getting a 980 from the US and even if it's 600$ incl shipping I'd save about 100€. But if it has to go through customs (19% of price + eventually additional fees for hardware, not sure) it wouldn't be worth the trouble.

Guess I'll google.

and Overclockers too.

The 970's are coming in at the £250+ range.

I'm a twin frozr fanboy, so those are singing to me.

Are there any good 970 benchies out there as DF was focused on the 980? I want to know how my 1080p setup will fare with things.

Nice, I'll check that in a moment, seriously not getting much work done today!

I have my eye on the 980 so I haven't really been looking at the 970 benches, sorry.

[Widge]

Many thanks. I have a 660 (which was just below the one time "standard" of the 660Ti), so it might be a time to up my game.

EDIT:

Must dig into some noise stats. My big love of the Twin Frozr comes from it barely registering an increase of already quiet fans when under load.

 

[ashecitism]

It definitely looks like a worthy (or must) upgrade for anyone using a 600 series card or lower.

btw discussion has mainly moved into to this thread

 

[Widge]

Just saw. Goodbye fine thread, I have fond memories of you. Of the 30 minutes I have spent in you anyway...
