Ditto.
It will be interesting to see how Eve:Valkyrie performs. You can be pretty sure that it's development started at 90fps as the bare minimum.
It doesn't have gimballed weapons tho :-(

I7 & 980ti performance - peoples experience please?

Scored 10.5 on the VR performance test with 2 X R295x2's and 16GB of ram.
Scored 11 on it with one 980ti and 32GB of ram. Elite is caching VR Ram continuously, monitored for a while, GPU was being throttled at 100%. I Upgraded the ram, it now barely reached 98% and provides smoother VR performance, just take off ambient lighting, blur and AA as these use high amounts of useful VR ram required for planetary textures.

People, I believe judder is possibly NOT caused by your graphics card nor CPU.
I have a strix GTX970 and I5 cpu. I have all settings set to medium and no shadows. My fps is rarily below 70 and locked most of the time at 75. Only exception is in some stations and on planets when in OPEN AND where there are alot of real commanders. If I switch to solo and go to a less populated system, all is good including judder. So why do I say it's not due to my hardware? becuase I run performance tools and show no relation/effects on graphics card and cpu when going from solo to open to heavy populated areas to when there is judder or not. All usage shows under 85%. So my conclusion is problem is at Frontiers server side.

How is the 980ti not performing that great? I have a GTX 970 SSC running a 144hz 1440p monitor and I get 80fps in stations, 120-144fps in space, and around 50fps on surface planets. From what it sounds like it's nearly identical to the experience some of you are having with your 980ti's???
Until I downclocked my EVGA 980, I was suffering from crashes to desktop. And all FD could do was finger-point at Nvidia and say "it's their driver's fault." Well, that doesn't help me one bit, really.
Framerate means nothing when crash to desktop makes framerate = zero
When it's working - downclocked - I get 50FPS on ultra with a 4k display. It's very nice. Except for when it crashes and then I nearly put my fist through my panel every time.
Edit: judder: look at network usage around the time when it judders. I don't think it's graphic performance at all - it's getting other ships data and planetary data and so forth from the servers.

in all fairness nvidia has had a problem with their drivers with the largest problem occurring today. http://www.pcworld.com/article/3041484/software/nvidias-new-36467-game-ready-drivers-are-crashing-systems-but-theres-a-fix.html
Personnaly I believe anybody who has GTX970 or better and has I5 or better and has judder issues it is not due to their hardware but due to Frontier's servers.
I have done tests using performance tools with my GTX970/ i5 system and my conclusion is any judder issues I've seen seem not related to my hardware whatsoever.

Definitely invest in a water cooler unit for your processor. These days when building gaming systems I always ensure I use a processor water cooler. it makes such a difference to the noise and improves performance. Processor stock fans are crap. Water cooler sealed units are simple to install (most of the time)
Also go for some noktua system fans for your water cooled processor if the stock fans are noisy. Just make sure you get the push / pull in the right direction.
I have built some nice rigs recently and they all judder in the rift in certain areas of ED so I think its the game or perhaps the rift hardware itself. One thing to note though is that I noticed the judders are more pronounced in Windows 10 than they were with Windows 8.1 so it could be drivers.
