Might want to do a re check on the UK price, most partner cards are over £400
"however at the moment its balanced architecture, energy efficiency and pricing give it a leading HEXUS 'Bang4Buck' score in nearly all of our sub-4K resolution performance tests."
But how long will it hold it? (The Rx 480 is released on the 29th and the leaked 3dMark scores have put it above the 390/970 for <£200)
The cheapest on OcUK was £375 and the GTX970 and R9 390 can be had for around £230. I think it is optimistic the GTX1070 looks good value!Originally Posted by cheesemp

I dunno the AiB cards being about £350 for the same performance as a 980Ti sounds like bloody good value to meThe cheapest on OcUK was £375 and the GTX970 and R9 390 can be had for around £230. I think it is optimistic the GTX1070 loosk good value!
Thats pretty relative. The GTX980Ti is very overpriced but, will still be beat the GTX1070 comfortably when both are overclocked. £400 is way too much IMO.
Inno3D just launched its custom GTX 1070 cards
The problem it is a new node and at that relative pricing makes the older cards like the GTX970 or R9 390 look better(or at most similar) value for money. Last time we had a new node,the GTX670 beat the GTX580 by 20% at a similar USD RRP to the GTX1070 and it was fighting against price reduced higher end cards too. The RX480 will look good value in comparison due to the GTX1070 pricing,and the GTX1070 looks good value due to the second tier GTX980TI being £500 to £600 and the first tier Titan X being over £600.

Here's the EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 featuring EVGA ACX 3.0 cooling.
From the benchmarks on Ars, the 1070 seems to have a pretty comfortable lead over the 980ti and a reasonable overclock.

I shall be interested to see what price they put the 1060 at, if it is low enough to worry RX480 sales it might eat 1070 sales? But better their own product eats 1070 sales I guess.
There's a KFA2-branded one on OCUK for £365, that's the cheapest I've seen so far. But yeah, no idea where that £329 figure in the article came from.
Do you think they'll have more stock than the 1080?
My main worry is that if GTX1070 prices are more likely to be £350 to £400 in reality,then that means Nvidia will release a GTX1060TI at £250.
The problem is if it is the same price/performance as the GTX1070,which costs around 40% more,it means more like GTX980/R9 390X level performance.
This is why I am so negative about the GTX1070,if Nvidia makes the GTX1060TI at £250(or a tad less) much faster than a GTX980/R9 390X,it will eat into sales of the GTX1070. However,it will only make it 10% to 20% faster overall than a GTX970. Maybe we will get 25% more??
Its an improvement in price/performance,but not mahoosive.
The only way we can get better price/performance is for AMD to actually deliver on what they are saying with the RX480. The last two new GPU launches they did with Tonga and Fiji were not great - I actually hope they deliver on the hype that has been generated so far and it will be priced reasonably.

£329?! ...shill
I think its pretty obvious at this point that atleast for now nobody really intends to stick to the MSRP price, except the odd card here and there. Both the 1080 and 1070 the AIB cards tend to cost even more than the founders, which is seriously harming the previous value proposition of these cards.
Ofcourse I was expecting to pay a little more than the MSRP, but more than the founders edition for the base model from each manufacturer, with higher prices still yet to come presumably for the higher end models is very poor value.
Maybe they can release a GTX1060 with 3.5GB of ram to keep the costs down
Seriously though, one thing you can't ever accuse Nvidia of is stupidity and AMD have pretty much shown their hand at this point. I am wondering if there will be 1060 and 1060ti versions, with something a bit more expensive than $200 but a bit faster to keep AMD looking like the cheap and cheerful option, possibly making that 4GB and the ti 8GB to make an easy upsell to something a bit more profitable.
OFC unless Nvidia can get cards on the shelves it doesn't matter much what they release, though I see Ebuyer are claiming some stock of the 1070: http://www.ebuyer.com/749692-msi-gef...-912-v801-1290 http://www.ebuyer.com/749701-gigabyt...-n1070d5-8gd-b
