GeForce GTX 1180 announced late August - 1180+, 1170 and 1160 to follow
More news from the NVIDIA front today. We already learned that there is NVIDIA activity during Gamescom in Germany, add to that an email proclaiming one to be from NVIDIA towards a board partner. This email talks about GeForce GTX 1180, 1170, 1180+ and 1160 by name.
The email and thus information leaked onto youtube channel Gamer Meld. Much like anything and everything on this topic, we cannot confirm the validity of that email and info. it is highly unusual that such a sensitive email would make it to the public, really HIGHLY unlikely. However, we cannot ignore the fact it's there. If it is real, then expect 30th August and 30 October as launch dates for some products. Basically, this is what the preliminary launches could/would look like:
- GeForce GTX 1180 on 30th August
- GeForce GTX 1170/1180+ in 30th September
- GeForce GTX 1160 on 30th October
You'll notice a 1180+. We're not sure about it, but are fairly certain that the GeForce GTX 1180: 30th August launch would be a founders edition, and the + very likely is a board partner board, AIB cards always launch later. All this info makes that email sound plausible (but really also could very well be tremendously fake). The email also mentions 21st August for a press conference call, for the partners.

So My estimates of October 1st were pretty accurate, if this is true.

If those dates are true, when do you think we'll get the mobile version of those GPUs?

Well if it is just a rehash, they will be within 5-10% better than their previous models...if it is a new generation then, GTX 1180 should be above the 1080ti, maybe 10%-20% better? and the 1170, being better than the 1080 maybe around the 1080ti... that's how it has typically gone the last few times, then the 1180ti will come out in around a years time and be around 40-60% better than the 1180

The 1180 could still be GDDR5X and the 1180+ a GDDR6 model ?

Are we assuming the 1180+ is the Ti?

Perhaps an early adaption of 1080 and 1080 11gbps like models. Differences in memory speed/type/bandwidth indeed.
Unless they are dropping TITAN branding.

I've been wanting to get rid of my bug ridden RX 580 since the day I bought it (already replaced the graphics card once...) and will keep my eyes on the lookout for the GTX 1160.

What seems odd is the overstock situation. Why havent prices come down more if new cards are due out in these time frames? Currently around original MSRP, so they dont seem to be really pushing to reduce this supposed overstock.

Ti would be released between 6 months or a year after the non Ti version, not at the same time than the 1170.

It depends on defect rate. If there is low defect rate then they will not keep large inventory of unsold chips. + if this is to be believed, they are releasing few different chip designs in close succession.
