GTX 870 Pricing

[Demuny]

Hey.
I have a quick question. What do you guys think that the GTX 870 will be priced at? I have the money for a 770, but i don't know if I should wait for the 870.
Thanks.

The GTX880 is estimate to start at $500 and perform roughly 50% better than a GTX770.

The GTX870 would probably cost $400+ and perform roughly 25% better than a GTX770 but that's a rough guess.

The GTX860 is likely to cost $260 to $330 and be similar to a GTX770 I suspect.

*My guess is you won't do better than the Asus GTX770 for its current $300 price.

I posted this twice on the forum and nobody could help me. Thanks man, I will wait for the parts and not get the 780 OC.

My guess is at release it will fall in the 550 US dollar range. I figure the 870 will be the 500 dollar card, 880 will be 700 dollar card, and the inevitable 880 Ti will be around 850 when it comes out. Just my guess so it might be all wrong though.

There was a rumor going around that the GTX 800s would be faster and cheaper. Could anyone confirm if this is still possible?

Well it is a bit early to know what the prices will be because the 20nm process has be problematic for the industry. We won't likely see the GTX 800 series until early 2015 at the earliest. We might end up seeing decent information on pricing sometime later in the year along with a better idea on when AMD and Nvidia release their next series of cards.

Here's what I think. The GTX 880 will outperform the GTX 690 and cost $500. The GTX 870 will have titan level performance and cost $400. And I believe there will be a GTX 860 ti with slightly lower performance than the GTX 780 at $300. Then the GTX 860 will give slightly better performance than a GTX 770 for $250. And the GTX 850 ti will be a little faster than a GTX 660 for $200.

These are complete guesses.

Unlikely.
The GTX860, 870 and 880 are going to stay with 28nm and possibly be available as early as October. The 20nm node is probably for a higher-end card and possibly laptops (cooling) and possibly just to save money if the die shrink even translates as a savings that way.

"The prices expected for these cards would be $499 for GeForce GTX 880 and $399 for GeForce GTX 870.."

*These numbers seem VERY LIKELY to me considering the GTX880 should be comparable to a good GTX780Ti which currently costs $650 so that's $150 cheaper nor do they want to jack up the price too much considering some of AMD's cards are good value (on paper; some quality issues though) as they have a $400 card with performance similar to a $500 GTX780.

However, I do think there's a good chance the GTX860 will have about the same performance as a GTX770 and cost about the same ($300). Even if it did, we'd likely see 3GB of VRAM instead of 2GB on a standard GTX770 and it should run quieter as well. Don't forget pricing is a SUGGESTED number too and if demand is anticipated high we may see jacked up prices.
