Anyone else waiting for the GTX 1060?
Will it out-perform the 970? We'll find out in a few months.

The question isn't if it will outperform the 970
The question is if it will outperform the RX 480
However, to answer your question, what we know it has 1280 shader cores; exactly half a 1080. Considering the 970 performs at 55% of a 1080, it should perform at or near 970 levels, especially as smaller Nvidia GPU's traditionally have reached higher clocks than the larger ones.
I expect the TDP to be around 110 watts.

Do people really buy a new GPU every generation?
A HD 7850 is still fast enough for 1080p.

>7xxx
cant run vr games, or 4k
Henry Diaz
>4k
Neither can the 3.5
Jeremiah Sanders
>3.5
the what?
i use amd stuff, not nvidia, but i upgrade each cycle to get the best performance.
Mason Stewart
While I am still on an HD7850, you really can't play newer games at the highest settings on 1080p.
Not that I play a lot of modern games, but even Morrowind with MGSO struggles to get even 30 fps in some areas.
Great card though. Maybe I'll upgrade to an RX480 but I'll probably wait another year.
Then again, might be nice getting a decent new GPU so I can do some heavy OpenCL shit that doesn't run like crap, without paying out the ass for it.

Yes it is. That was literally the question posed, you dumb cuck.

Nobody on this fucking planet that isn't an autistic little Dumbest Generation idiot cares.
30 years old or older to post on Sup Forums. Dumbest Generation idiots are too dumb to be here.

No one chooses between current gen new and last gen new if they're near equal performance and price; and I doubt Nvidia will cut the 970, they traditionally haven't done so when the replacements come.
The real question is between two current gen.

GTX 970 had eight ROP's and a Memory Controller disabled, but it was advertised as having them all intact. As a side effect, the last 512mb sector of the 4gb of memory onboard, is tied over the other 7 memory controllers but gets accessed at 1/7th the speed, making it essentially useless.
ie, it was advertised as a 4gb card, but it only has 3.5gb that is useful.

Easton Roberts
who the fuck cares about 970? 1060 will only sell good if its below 200 cause 480 is a more complete card in any way you see it
and since 1070 isnt even faster than a 980 on dx12 1060 will be a nightmare with so much less compute power to begin with...
Ian Watson
>The question is if it will outperform the RX 480
Yeah because AMD is relevant to any discussion ever...
Nvidia would literally have to disappear overnight for AMD to be relevant.
Carson Davis
i know what your talking about haha meme, but thats why i said i dont use nvidia
>30 years old or older to post on Sup Forums. Dumbest Generation idiots are too dumb to be here.
website was founded by a 14 year old, i dont think you should even be spending your time on these forums if youre 30+, move on with your life.
i know, im implying i dont use nvidia

There is no way it will outperform rx480. So why would I even? The 960 price is higher and so will the 1060 be. Its the price point where nivavidia cant offer competition to (i)amd(omination). Also who the heck would buy 1070 if you can get 2x rx480 or full polaris 10? Also the efficiency looks better for ayymd, my 550 seasonic psu is enough to feed them plus a 95w cpu.
Zachary Allen
Why not just play on high or medium.
Adrian Bell
Yeah, and how does it feel to have people who were younger than you at the time be infinitely smarter than you?
It's just THIS DUMBEST GENERATION that is too fucking dumb to be on Sup Forums. You know... YOU.
And your post proves it. Idiot.
Ian Martin
whats your point
Jayden Wood
That is an option, yes.
I was just saying that it's showing its age and will probably not last much longer.
Justin Gray
nigga need to lurk instead of shitposting, that's his point.
don't come up in dis bitch ackin' like you know sumthin li'll punk ass nigga.

Nothing wrong with being a manchild. I'm 36 and still game.

7850 doesn't perform well on new doom.
William Nguyen
Take a 1080,
Cut it in half,
That's a 1060
Connor Sullivan
haha no it's not, it'd be 540. What are you stupid?
Camden Thompson
"Fast enough" is ok, but some people like to max it out.
I gamed on a 660 for years and it was great, but I upgraded to a 970 and it's clearly better.
Jaxson Ortiz
>What are you stupid
Excellent post, upvoted my friend.
