If a gtx 1070 is for 1440p

if a gtx 1070 is for 1440p
and a gtx 1080 ti is for 4k/1440p144hz
then whats a gtx 1080 for

1440p100Hz?

what fuckface would buy that

Someone who's too poor for a 1080Ti/Vega56 but has enough for a 1080

what's a gtx 1070 ti then?

1080p, don't fall for the 1070 is for 1440p meme, unless you're willing to play at 55~60 frames on medium settings in games like shadow of war.

so a gtx 1070 is for 1080p while a gtx 1080 is for 1440p?

1070 is a mid card, 1080 = 1080p card, if the rumors are confirmed to be true for the supposed 1070 ti, it's basically a cheaper gtx 1080, solid choice for 1080p gaming, nvidia is likely releasing it to compete with the upcoming AMD cards. what i'm trying to tell you tho is, don't fall for the 1070 is powerful enough to drive demanding games at 1440, it's simply not, i have a 1070 oc'd at 2060mhz/ and i'm getting 85~100 fps on shadow of war running on mixed graphics, (higher than normal FOV though, something like 90~), also, you will need a decent enough CPU to drive em, i mean 850+ on cinebench r15, else you will struggle with bottlenecking.

This whole x card for y framerate at z resolution thing is an impressive new kind of stupidity.

are you implying benchmarks are useless ?

according to Intel shills, 1080 Ti is actually for 1080p gaming
so I assume 1080 is for 720p and 1070 is for 480p

What's my glorious 1060 SC for then?

for browsing hentai

1080p60fps

I play recent games at 4k with ultra settings with my gtx1070 and get 60fps easily

I'm playing games at 4k on my 1080 ti 11 gig card with ease, all at ultra.

And i hit the lotto last week.

I'm implying that in reducing something down into bite size factoids that Sup Forums can understand you lose basically everything worthwhile about doing the benchmarks in the first place.

Are there any good games that need anything better than a 1050ti to run at 1080p?

1440p with absolutely no 60fps dip
oddballl refresh rates like 75hz

I play shadow of war at 1440p high 55fps avg with a 1060 6gb
