GTX 1080 overpriced !?

[DukiNuki]

Hey guys

1.Founders edition was 699$ and non reference models were promised around 630$ and under Founders Edition Price but i find crazy prices all around the web , what will the pricing of these non reference cards be ? Will they drop the price to what was promised ? when ?

2.When are the non reference models going to hit the market ?

3.Which non reference model is the fastest one ? and which has the Best Price Performance ?

4.GTX 1080Ti release date ? Pricing ?

1. It depends on the manufacturer and model. Some custom boards and cooler will cost more to manufacture.
2. Again, it depends on the manufacturer. MSI, EVGA and ASUS have all already released after market models.
3. Check out benchmarks. So far, from the released ones, it seems to be the ASUS Strix.
4. This hasn't even been discussed yet.

I cant find asus strix on neweggs or anywhere

It exists. I bought one from Canada Computers, still waiting on it to come in. Their production and shipments got delayed, but some people do have them.

any official date ?

As for Ti I wouldn't be expecting it way too soon. This is pure speculation but I'd expect either Pascal Titan or 1080Ti no sooner then to come to compete with Vega... that is depending if/how much can Vega beat plain 1080 and whether nV can produce chips fast enough...

any official date ?

Well, no. It depends on the distributor really. I was the first one to get an order in at Canada Computers, and my expected arrival date was the 22nd. That's obviously came and went. The next person was expected to have theirs around July 8th. So I assume I'll get mine around then, and theirs will be pushed back if they don't come in at the same time.

They're in very high demand right now. It happens on the launch of every new superior GPU. Just chill and wait. You can always look for a local distributor and put in an order so you'll be in line.
