NVidia is delaying their new GPU until 3rd quarter

NVidia is working to discourage miners, raising prices, and slipped their new "Turning" GPU to 3rd quarter. Damn, I really want one of these new GPUs for my Pimax 8K.

Nvidia also has further increased its GPU quotes recently, which the sources believe is meant to help cover the gap that may occur after GPU demand starts sliding.

Since profitability from graphics cards has been weakening, Nvidia and AMD have both been decelerating the developments of their new GPU architectures and prolonging their existing GPU platforms' lifecycle, the sources said, adding Nvidia's next-generation GPU architecture Turing will not enter the mass production until the third quarter.

Do they ever have stock tho? I could live with founders edition possibly if it was in stock

They seem to restock about once every 2 weeks. You can set up an auto notification of new stock (I think), you just have to be pretty quick when they become available.
 
You are having a laugh... I was hoping to get a new gpu. I just upgraded to i9 7940x with 28logic processors and 64gb ram running at 4200mhz ddr4

my current and the weakest part is the gpu.

I have a r9 380 which some how I have managed to melt parts of the cooler metal. The cooler has started to separate.

the plate is still screwed to the base board and is flush with the processor. But the metal components which is stacked on top has melted etc.



omg will it last till the release i don't want to buy a card and then another in such a sort period when the NVidia card arrives.


i was seriously hoping they would arrive latest june

Lol, your CPU/ram combo alone cost as much as my entire pc! When you do get a modern GPU in there, that's going to be one beast of a rig!
 
Damn. Looks like I will be staying with my AND fury for a while. I will just update my CPU, motherboard and ram to the new ryzen systems in April.

Hopefully that give my system enough of a boost to power the Pimax 8k.

Also look for EVGA card in eBay. The warranty is transferable.

Seems like a waste just to play worms on it. :)
 
In the last month Nvidia has gotten stock of 1080ti's once, and they are 699 USD. I got mine from microcenter for like 850ish.
 
Honestly the signs that nothing was coming for a while were there the whole time. It's the reason I jumped on the 1080ti when I could instead of waiting.

I considered it, but I have a 980Ti which is currently fine and I'm getting a Pimax 8K and I don't think the 1080Ti is powerful enough to run it with the ultra quality settings I want.
 
Well the standard 8k upscales what 1440p or something I think? My 1080ti runs the Odyssey headset pretty good which does 1600p. I just started testing it but it seems pretty decent so far. Even the next generation cards won't be able to run the dual 4k setup of the high end pimax 8k. At least not with settings maxed I doubt.

I wouldn't bother with a founders edition they run hot according to the reviews, plus the AIB cards usually clock higher. Only advantage is that they seem to keep their price better when it's time to sell on for some reason.

The founders cards aren't too bad, I had a founders 1070, you can get them to run as cool as aftermarket at the expense of increased fan noise.

Also, if you plan to put a waterblock on the card, founders are generally the way to go thanks to their reference PCBs, very few waterblock exist for custom boards.
 
for the record i have never had a standard blower card....... so feel free to say i am talking crap

but i imagine the beauty of the founders design is they actively remove hot air from your pc... so if you pc is limited on airflow, i can imagine that on 1st turning on your pc they do not look to be as good as an aftermarket

but if your pc has been on a while and the air in your case gets a bit warm, then i would expect the founders edition to catch up as they actively remove warm air from your case rather than just moving the hot air from one point to another.

but as i said this is just me speculating.... i have plenty of air flow in my case so all things being equal, normally i would go after market.
 
From what I've seen the founders edition cards from Nvidia seem to be some of the best overclockers. The custom cards don't seem to get you much if anything at all in regards to overclocking. These cards just require low temps and they all overclock quite well. And yes generally only refrence style cards will be waterblock compatible.

And you are correct in the fact that the blower style cards blow all the heat out the back of the case, which it's a lot of heat! The non reference cards are still making the same heat, they are just dissipating it differently and generally inside your case. There are a few non founders editions that have reference pcb designs like my MSI Aero 1080ti. I plan to grab the EK Liquid Gaming waterblock system at some point (about the cheapest water cooling setup you can do that actually performs well) so getting something that works with that block was important to me.
