GeForce GTX 980 and GTX 970 Pricing
Unconfirmed rumor sets the upcoming GeForce GTX 970 and 980 pricing at US $399 and US $599 respectively. I am tagging this as big rumor as the price difference is just too much.
Then again if you look at prices more closely, the 399 USD marker is awfully close to the GTX 780 and the 599 USD marker is rather close to the GTX 780 Ti. Well, just a couple of more days and we'll see how powerful the cards are, what new features they have and what the final pricing will be.
GeForce GTX 970 and 980 is expected to launch during the upcoming GAME24 event which starts On September 18th 2014 at 6 pm PDT.

My 680s at 7200 had quite a bit more bandwidth than a 580, though memory oc on the 580 didnt help much at all. I ran the memory at 4410mhz for 2 years
Not to mention things like L2 cache increases and better compression. Even if 580 had the same bandwidth number as a Maxwell card the Maxwell card would still have better bandwidth performance.

WOW! WCCFTech is confirming the price of the 970 to be $299 and custom cooled variants up to $349! Is it at all possible that Nvidia has been listening?
With that price it seems the $499 speculation for the 980 might possibly be high.

I think that was fudzilla. Of course the 680 was not $299 when it released lol.

Ok but GTX 980 can't be faster memory bandwidth than GTX 780 series.
I'm much deserved the HIGH-END (= each next-gen card is ALWAYS faster memory bandw and eg: GKxx0, GMxx0, GVxx0 (Volta chip)...).
ok fine it's gonna fail, you won't have to upgrade till 2015 at least, or whenever you want.
no one is forcing you to lol
