Agreed great price, cold voters must be those who don't get free shipping!

Great price, cold voters must be Nvidia fanboys.

To answer my own question, not too badly. It also runs fairly quiet.
Good price but I must not be tempted by a new graphics card until Pascal and Polaris are released.

How does this compare with a 980ti?

Very nice
A bit slower than the Ti version however that retails £100-150 more so at this price this is comparable to a standard 980 and this tend to a be a bit faster or tie in most tests.

It's actually very close these days in some of the newer games, in some DX12 games, it's literally neck and neck.

No cold voters are likely to be those who splashed over £300 on a graphics card, only to see the price slashed by at least a third less than 1 year later. Not voted either way. If money is no object yeah I'm sure it's a 'great price' but this is silly money for any graphics card - as are the eye-watering prices for even more extreme models - for which no game even exists that will even need that level of processing power.

You must be joking right?
Some of the new games can't get a solid 60fps at 1080p ultra let alone 1440p and 4K.
Plus people want 144fps to go with there 144hz monitor.
I think u must be trolling haha :stuck_out_tongue:

Hey man haven't you heard? VR has launched, which IS pushing the boundaries of current high end cards.

What's with all these super powerful cards getting discounts, all I want is a cheap 960 or 970 to tide me over until the new cards. Let me play Dark Souls 3 please :smile:

I don't know if they hold their value any more than the last time I wasted £300+ on a graphics card - but that will be the very LAST time I waste over £300 on a graphics card. Except if I find a suitcase of used notes of course.

either trolling, uninformed, or not playing any games released in the last 5 years.

Well that's tech and I understand your point about not holding it value but nothing does except rare expensive cars and houses.
Look at 4K tv for example was £20,000 for a cheap set less than 3 years ago without streaming and now they can be bought for under £400 with new better features.
Even apple products can be bought half price after a year or 2.
Try playing rise of the tomb raider with a crap card and see if u can hold even 20 fps at 1080p on ultra.
Even the 970 can't hold 60fps on new games at 1080p and even the not so mighty Titian X can't do it
