Like the title says. I'm using a 2gb 770 right and recently upgraded to a 1440p screen. Based on the 980ti's release date compared to 980 it seems to take about a year for ti chips to release. I'm wondering if I should just get the 1080 on release or wait till ti release?
 
Solution


then wait another year for 1180 ti.
Also: a year after 1080ti there'll be a "1180" on the market. A new, better, faster card will always be a year away so waiting a full year is not worth it unless your rig can handle another year of new games at acceptable fps.
