That's a mighty sexay G-Card. I wanna poke it.

[Goobers]

Ouch. My plans for upgrading from my current Titan Xs needs some serious rethinking.

[EliteSPA]

I will upgrade later on to 2x 1080 Ti, for now Im happy with 2x Founders.

[Warbloke]

Can I run 4 of these in quad SLI ?

edit: HOW MUUUUUCH ??? !! *faints

For the 30% increase it really doesn't seem to be wourth the extra cost, surely the 1080ti will get pretty close to this but at a much cheaper price? (he says.)

great, now I have to start referring to my card as the 'old' Titan X

Just call it the 'Vintage' Titan X, maybe some hipster will swap it with you for the new one 😄

[LZoltowski]

But will it run pong at 90fps?

[Shadowmask72]

Sooo tempted to sell my Founders Edition to get this but the extra cost for 30% performance gain seems a bit formulaic. Are Nvidia doing this on purpose or what? plus it's around £300 more than the cost of the 1080. 

980ti - 1080 30% gain 
1080 - Titan X 30% gain
Titan X - 1080Ti ???

That said, if the 30% gain translates well to 4K we could finally have a card capable of maintaining 60 fps in most games at Ultra settings. That's something which interests me the most. I'll have to do some maths.
