Nvidia Pascal GPU has 17 billion transistors

The problem is that big Pascal is going to crush it.

That's kind of the nature of this video card thing, they're a fast depreciating asset. Computer gaming isn't for poor folk.


Always newer, faster cards coming out, supply and demand set price.

When will "big Pascal" crush it though? Lots of "big Pascals" or HBM2 being produced these days?

So if "big Pascal" comes out in February, was a 1080 for $600-$700 in May a bad deal? Methinks not. Can always be sold when new parts come out, and GHTX980s were selling for $350-$400 a couple weeks ago.

I got $520 for the 980Ti that cost me $650 a year ago.
