If you are referring to me being on your ignore list you sure do post regarding me a lot. Kinda useless.
As for your man he wasn't really right. Everybody is reporting this because of the expected next gen cards. It doesn't take an "insider" to figure this out
I dunno. If the new series has some of the new Volta features, video game developers could start pushing their games to take advantage of the new power. Then Pascal and Maxwell will fall off the map and the 1180 could end up being significantly faster than a 1080Ti at a much lower TDP.
A lot of users don't think like that though. They don't care that a 1080Ti is enough. IF they see an 1180 significantly outpacing a 1080Ti in even one or two games, they might take that as a sign of the times and jump ship.
While us forum nerds are by no means a minority, we're not the majority either.
That said there are far more TVs with 4k that PC owners using 4k monitors. I paid £349 for a 55" 4k that does 60hz. Try doing that on a PC.
Well its not hard if you tank the game gfx options to low or medium
But now, is the perfect time for getting good deals on 1080/Ti. I already see prices dropping to Normal/below normal. I just wish we could have seen more FE pop up in retailers again, but that is not going to happen sadly. We would have to settle for whatever is left in surplus which is most likely all the Gigabyte and MSI boards.
Failing that the second hand market is still relatively quiet on 1080 series cards so it gives even more a good reason to buy one new for a good price.
It makes no difference dude. Low/medium etc. When you are sitting 20ft+ away you can't see it any how. Seriously, at 4k from that far you can't even see any rough edges at all. I even stood up to go closer to the TV when studying FO4 just to see if there were any and nope.
Like I said, certain parts of QB have stopped me to take a look around. I am further through it on the Xbone than I was on the PC now, so am seeing things I didn't before and it's like "first time very impressed".
But I'm talking about PC not console. Why would i sit so far away from a PC screen?
I keep meaning to try QB out. Was going to get it at launch but well it had many issues being over secure blocking people who had not pirated the game. I waited till bugs were fixed but never got around to getting it.
No I wasn't referring to you or else I would not be typing this
As it happens the information, as usual, came from Asus in Taiwan. I would imagine Asus have played it about as safely as they could, as they could see it as a finite entity.
I guess we will find out who made the most once OCUK start dropping the prices on them lol.
