So, why did you cheap out and buy the 1070 instead of the 1080?

I only have a 60hz 1080p monitor.

I only have a 1440p 60hz monitor and enjoy saving 200-300 bucks

>>58773105
This, human eye can't even see above 60hz anyway.

I've played a total of 3 hours of video games since I bought my 1070 back in July. I think even my 1070 was a waste.

I cheapened up and got an RX 480

I'm a student and Canadian prices are fucking rough, so I grabbed an RX470 instead

Easy triple digit FPS in the games I play if I don't insist on 32x MSAA

>>58773076
The only actual uses of these overpriced fireballs are heaters and helping autistic people play their games. Anyone with at least half a brain buys a realistically priced AMD GPU.

Does anyone have experience doing GPU computing with these? I'm trying to get a feel for how matrix inversions compare to high end CPUs. The benchmarks I've seen look at the absurdly expensive Tesla GPUs.

I don't own either GPU (yet), but the 1080 is kind of in an awkward spot where it's too fast for 2560x1440 but too slow to really shine at 3840x2160.
Though for the sake of triple monitor gayming at 5760x1080, I think a 1080 will be my next GPU.

I didn't.

I bought a 1080, but I fucked up and went EVGA.

This faggot card can't even handle CSGO properly, starts off at 300FPS and then gradually starts grinding down to 2FPS over an hour, admittedly this is in a 64 player gamemode with people shooting constantly, but my 680 handled it fine so why is my 1080 having troubles?

Also doesn't seem to like youtube much for some reason, whenever I skip around on a video there's maybe a 1 in 5 chance of it freezing and eventually showing me a green screen.

Anyway blog post over, I'll probably just end up RMAing this piece of shit.

>>58773615

why didn't you stop at one if they're overrated?

>>58773751
It's pretty neat desu
At least in games that don't go full retard when you stretch them across 3 monitors

>>58773893
I got a cheapo korean one, then a nvidia 3-D vission one, then a g-sync one, then a free-sync one (I think), then I got an IPS one, then I got two 1440p ones (one was g-sync, the other was a korean). All were 144hz, now I plan on buying a 240hz one.
tbqh a 75hz g-sync display is the best. You can tell the difference between 144 and 60, but its not worth it since very few games actually feel better when playing at that high of a refresh rate.

>>58773942
Please get off my board normie shit. I even lower game settings for a constant 100+ fps cause unless you're a very casual normie or mentally retarded the difference is night and day. your shit monitors probably don't even truly have that frame rate or you're too stupid to adjust it in Windows.

>>58773980
I don't need to lower the settings since I've got two 1080s. The difference isn't really night and day. I had one of those 240hz CRT moniters that I was using for almost 11 years. Maybe going back to that refresh rate will finally feel nice for a change

>>58774021

Cheap out and getting the 1080 and not the Titan x

Because when overclocked, 1070 reaches close to stock 1080 levels of performance.
It would be retarded to pay 50% more for a card that's only marginally better.

>>58773076
I didn't buy either I'm waiting for the 1080 Ti to come out so I can buy an AMD Vega card

>>58773076
Because you all convinced me to get an RX 480.

>>58773076
Because my old R9 290X broke so I needed a replacement and Nvidia is easier to sell once the new AMD cards come out.

Why did you cheap out and buy the 1080 instead of the Titan X?

10% improvement, theres no point, buy 1080 then upgrade when the newer gpus arrive

>>58773615
No, what you don't get is that I can actually see that it is smoother, why would it looks smoother if we aren't supposed to be able to discern the difference? What I'm stating is that I believe that differs with each human, because I can notice the difference, you, however may not.

>>58773484
Generally they will perform within 5% of the nearest GTX-equivalent card, the Quadros are tad slower because of ECC. The exception is the P6000, which is actually a lot faster than a Titan XP.

The issue here is that for precise math ECC could be a big deal if your work demands zero tolerance, then you'll have to pony up or have your simulations crash or provide incorrect results every once in a while, depending on how long they run.

>>58773119
the human eye can differentiate 20~40fps. But it needs a minimum of 1,000fps that something feels natural for it

I will once the 1080ti comes out though.

because to me it wasn't worth the extra cost.

I still have a 970. I'm not going to upgrade until DX12 is ubiquitous

What's the point if there is no competition from AMD?

1070 is already an overkill, but I wanted to get rid of my old meme 970 before 1060 hit the shelves.
