Will 60fps @ 4k be possible this upcoming generation with a single card?

So any prediction on what the price of the Pascal 970 equivalent could reasonably be? Is this a "god only knows" type question?

The talk about mail in rebates is really interesting. Wonder if it will be covered in this book which I just started listening to via Audible ("Phising for Phools"): http://www.amazon.com/Phishing-Phools-Economics-Manipulation-Deception/dp/0691168318 I think the premise will be that manipulation and trickery that take advantage of the short-sighted instincts of our species are kind of prevalent in capitalism (the book is US-centric) and even honest to God decent moral people are forced to act that way if they want to stay competitive.

So why only announce high end stuff, what about people who just want to keep gaming at 1080p until 4k 60fps is mainstream?

So roughly when will these new nvidia cards be widely available while being 15% to 20% cheaper than msrp? Fall? Next Spring?

Dang, really disappointed in the 4k performances for ultra setting and such. At 1080p it really doesn't make sense to even upgrade from my 2gb 770 gtx, though I might do so if nvidia or AMD end up offering something that can deliver at least 1.5x the performance for $150 or less. At 1080p the 1070 seems like a waste unless you want to drive a panel with higher than 60hz refresh rates (or 1440p). I think it matters that we aren't getting a card here that's cost-effective at 4k because eventually 4k will become the standard for monitors the same way 1080p is now (sorry 1440p). I'm guessing a card that can drive 4k monitors in gaming at reasonable performance levels will have to be within commodity level prices before monitor manufacturers start mass producing 4k monitors and selling them at lower prices. Dang, Pascal = total meh. Yes, I'm salty that I will not at this time be buying electronics I can reasonably justify to myself as being necessary upgrades. objects in mirror fucked around with this message at 06:58 on May 18, 2016 |

I am jealous of people who will buy the 1080 and will experience that dopamine rush, I guess jealously regarding such people is what I get for not studying hard in high school. Speaking of us min/maxing poors, the most cost efficient thing IMO is to stay at 1080p till the next nvidia generation when 4k displays and cards that can drive them will be cheaper. I use a Vizio tv I bought earlier this year (2015, 1080p, vizio e series) and already its 2016 replacement is 4K. Maybe the next edition will have HDR. If only TV manufacturers cared more about enabling greater than 60hz input from PCs to their panels , because using a big screen is really immersive and 60hz is the only limitation. But for now hoping for (true) 4gb 970 performance level card from Amd or Nvidia for $140 or thereabouts.

AVeryLargeRadish posted:Nah, better to wait until 68" 8k 240Hz OLED displays are $50 and you can drive three of them with a single $120 card. Yes these products are Veblen goods in part and it does make sense to wait rather than consistently paying early adopter premiums.

If the r480 will be between the 970 and 980 in performance, will that enough for modern games at ultra settings and 60 fps?

Will the 1070 be overkill for 1080p?

So will people be posting the GTX 480 benchmarks after 12:00 am U.S Eastern time?

Some guy is asking for $160 for his 970 on craigslist. Worth buying, put that money into a rx 480 or wait for the 1060?

Gwaihir posted:The 480 is a ~210$ 970, so an actual 970 for 160$ is a real good deal. Twerk from Home posted:Sounds like a good deal to me! Picked it up, the guy was goony and also gave me a nice bag to hold the card in. Unfortunately I couldn't install it last night as I couldn't find a philips screwdriver. The guy is still selling 2 more 970s for $160, for you goons near Washington, DC. https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/sop/5651249599.html

Haha, glad I took craiglist guy's offer and bought a used 970 for $160. I hope the 1060 isn't that much better than the 970.
