I think it’ll be more like in certain tasks that pascal has ‘new things’ for, the 1070 might sometimes be faster than the Titan X/980 ti and in certain tasks that pascal has ‘new things’ for, the 1080 might sometimes be twice as fast as TX/980 ti.
In current games, I don’t think the 1080 will be that much faster than TX/980 ti.
Remember that these are 970 and 980 replacements, not the ‘big’ chip replacements.
Given that AMD has said they’re targeting the mid range with polaris 10 (polaris 11 being more towards laptops if I remember correctly) I’m expecting the 1080 to be the highest performance card out for a while, of course at a higher price.
Seems like we might have some great stuff in the $200-$400 range though?
Looking forward to finally replacing my HD 7850.
