NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 and 980 to have 4GB initally and 8GB models later

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 and 980 to have 4GB initally and 8GB models later

Well, we've been saying that for a while now. But loose lips from an employee over at Overclockers in the UK claim that NVIDIA's GeForce 980 and GeForce GTX 970 reference cards will feature 4GB GDDR5 memory. SKUs with custom coolers and 8GB GDDR5 memory will follow at a later date and claims the 980 will be faster than the GeForce GTX 780. 

According to OCUK  the  GTX 970 and GTX 980 with 8GB models are expected somewhere between November and December. They did not comment on GM204 performance, but  did mention that GTX 980 replaces GTX 780, not GTX 780 Ti (ooh shocking news)

OCUK:

980 / 970 4GB reference cards with 8GB coming at a later date with custom coolers. Can’t say any more but don’t expect a huge leap in performance over current single GPU stuff.

OCUK:

They replace 780, not 780Ti.

Performance wise, my lips are sealed on how it compares to 780Ti, but of course 980 is quicker than 780 for sure!

The Ti replacement will probably come around in December. Lets hope the big one comes out around this time soon.

So basically if you got a high end card it's a waste of money. We have to wait for the real performance bump because this is pathetic. Nvidia pushing 4k gaming yet fails to deliver the hardware to do it, waste of time.
Unless you buy Tri or Quad sli one again.

Roll on GM200.

780ti is not getting replaced any time soon. I mean, its price hasn't budged for like half a year now.

"980 will be faster than the GeForce GTX 780", well that's stating the obvious - I should hope so! The question is...will it be faster than a 780ti, and by how much!
