Nvidia will release mainstream GP106 GPUs later this year
According to several sources the equivalent of the GTX 950 and GTX 960 (we don't know the names yet but let's call them GTX 1050 and 1060 for now) would be released later in the year, an Autumn release meaning the Christmas season.
The chip empowering the product will be a 16nm fabbed Pascal under the logical code-name GP106. The GP106 is used for price competitive and sensitive products that hit a good price/perf ratio.
If we chart things up (and the chart below ids very speculative) we see the following. BTW the GP104-400 for the Ti might very well become a GP100 based SKU, which would make more sense
NVIDIA GeForce | Possible name |
Pascal | Fab | Board | Date | |
GTX Titan X | >> | TBD | GP 100 | 16nm | Reference -> AIB | TBD |
GTX 980Ti | >> | GTX 1080 Ti | GP 104-400 | 16nm | Reference -> AIB | June/July |
GTX 980 | >> | GTX 1080 | GP 104-200 | 16nm | Reference -> AIB | June |
GTX 970 | >> | GTX 1070 | GP 104-150 | 16nm | AIB design | June |
GTX 960 | >> | GTX 1060 | GP 106 | 16nm | AIB design | October |
GTX 950 | >> | GTX 1050 | GP 106 | 16nm | AIB design | October |
So from the looks of it this summer will be all about the successors to the Geforce GTX 970, GTX 980 and GTX 980 Ti.

Would be cool to see something like a 1060 Ti (1600-1800) Cudas.... for around $220 that would be a Hott seller in my opinion.

Man I don't give a **** about people
People are idiots
People buy AIO watercoolers (sorry !)
I've literally been juggling a bunch of prospective buyers for my 980Ti for 3 weeks now, and I'm still ****ing undecided
I can get ~560 euros for my card
If ~560 euros gets me a 20% performance increase (over a stock 980Ti) then it's worth it for me
I'm sure the cards will cost more than the MSRP initially, and i'd have to wait for the AIB cards... probably an extra month and an extra 50 euros.
tldr: X80 @ 600 euros with 980ti +20% stock is bare minimum to make the change worth it
If not
30 euros worth of fujipoly thermal pads, some gelid extreme and
I know, I know, only considering Pascal is stupid; but I need CUDA. Unless AMD has their cuda interpreter ready, and it's been tested, I'm sticking to the greedy green team
You would change it for a 1350MHz 980Ti @ those up to 20%? seems like a waste in a waste.. Money and difference.
Imo from a 980TI owner only full GP100 is worth it, rest is not relevant. Well unless you now feel "left out" because you have a "dated" gpu and new mid-range perf chip can run the same and you want to be in a new upgrade loop.

2x FP16 would make it worth it even if at the end it performs slightly slower than my 980ti@ 1500 for fp32

d r e a m i n g. VR and 4K won't be there before 2017/2018, and 4K might become relevant before VR do.
This PS4.1 story is good for PC also, means devs are gonna be able to push things a little further.
lol, between VR, 4K, DirectX12, Marketing need to get their shlt together lol..
