Stay with 980 Ti or upgrade to 1080 ?

[medi01]

Pascal Titan P (P for Pricey, I bet ) is rumored to be announced in August.

"50% faster than 1080" (not sure if "at VR" or at something else).

1080Ti should come only after Titan has milked the market.

Whoops, this thread had alot of new replies since last time I checked in.

Thank you all for your suggestions but I already made my choice after few replies to stay with my 980 Ti, sorry for no response heh.

I'm staying with regular GTX 980. With GTX 98Ti, there is even less reasons to upgrade.

I'm just catching up that phase I was in back when I had a 1280x1024 monitor. When mid end grpahic cards become so fast they satisfy all my high quality, high framerate needs. Today I'm on 1920x1080 144Hz monitor and I don't see any need for "4K". Meaning I'll be able to get really high framerate with max settings using just RX580 or GTX 2060 or 2070 tops in the future. Which means I'll again get back into 300-350€ segment I used to be in back in the golden days. GTX 980 at 650€ kinda ruined that hehe. But it's fast, can't deny that.

Well the reviews are up for the 1080 and it shows quite a leap from the 980 Ti which is impressive but really sad for me since I bought my 980 Ti in November last year seeing it beaten so fast where my 980 Ti had little usage (not reaching it's limits in games) and I'm in the same dilemma I was when I was wanting to buy 980 Ti out of fear that the Pascal will easily beat it so I'm generally curious what do you folk think.

While I don't regret buying my 980 Ti that late in the year even when Pascal was announced with it's die shrink I bought my 980 Ti because I was impatient and wanted a GPU to last me for couple of years playing games on 1440p but seeing how much increase the 1080 is I'm wondering is it a smart move to upgrade to 1080 or stay with my 980 Ti ?

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in forward.

EDIT: I have MSI GTX 980 Ti Gaming Edition (OC-ed), if anyone is wondering.

You should wait for 1080 Ti if you really wish to upgrade. Also try patience this time as prices will stabilize in a few months when stable supply is there.

Listen to this guy, keep the 980ti; its still an awesome card.
If you have money to burn for no reason, you can always buy the newest most shiny upgrade.
Else, be patient.
