Makes sense to me. Vega isn't coming till Q2 most likely, so there is no reason for Nvidia to launch it now and cannibalize it's own sales.
I also think it's MSRP is going to be cheaper then most people expect. Factory Overclocked 1080's are already going for as low as $580. I can almost definitely see Nvidia kicking the MSRP of the 1080 down to $550 and setting the Ti MSRP at $650 - with the FE models being $750.
I expect Volta won't launch till Q1 2018, so that will give one year of Ti --> 1180 release (or whatever they are going to call it) which is the same as it was for the 780Ti and 980Ti to their respective replacements.
Yep and this is why I dislike rumor sites - it essentially forces all the reputable ones to sink to the level otherwise they lose out on revenue. Not that I'm blaming you - I'd do the same thing - it's just unfortunate that in some cases a random post on a forum can literally become a source for "news".

Appreciate the fact that this news was posted with obvious cynicism and caution. Most news sites would simply copy paste the news and be done with it.

Not really excited about this now I own a GTX 1080 as my logical upgrade path now would be next year's inevitable GTX 1180. However, one thing that does interest me is just how much NVIDIA are going to be charging for this card given that the pricing of the GTX 1080 was already approaching ridiculous (and not helped either by NVIDIA silly premium on their otherwise standard reference Founder's Edition cards). I'm betting it will be between £700 and £800 here in the UK (versus the £560 I paid for my GTX 980 Ti in 2015). There's no way it is going to sell for the same price as the GTX 1080 unless NVIDIA do the right thing and reduce the prices on the older GPUs.

Yes, that 1080Ti at PAX rumor pops up after it's not announced at CES, just like it was said to be at CES by rumor sites before CES happened... we shall see, it's done when it's done.
Pricing will be more than the 980Ti (in relation to current money worth of course), I expect it to cross the 700€ barrier here easily, especially for the custom cooler models (if there will be some), and of course, the infamous founder's edition aka early adopter extra price tag edition.

There will definately be price drops within Q2 for the current pascal range. We can expect a performance driver from Nvidia as well. The real secret sauce is Nvidia will be announcing their own api which is already intergrated into Unreal Engine 4 for extra 2% performance increases across the board.

I am quite confused, I really thought the GTX 1080 had GDDR5X and that the GTX 1070 had GDDR5. I have seen in a few of your articles that you mention only the Titan X having GDDR5X memory. Are you sure this is the case?
Nvidia's website states that the GTX 1080 has GDDR5X running at 10 Gbps.
Why would the Ti have GDDR5 only when the normal 1080 has GDDR5X?

i would say est 799$ and thats being generous.

The way pricing is rising in gpu tech i think my Evga 980ti classified will be the last highend(at the time) gpu i buy for the next 2-3 years unless it dies, by then i`ll be in my 50`s and still on minimum wage with the cost of living ever increasing.

As many said, the moment Vega gets released, Ti will be there right after it.

Well there is still a lot of mystery about vram specifications
will it be 10GB GDDR5x (320Bit) or will it be 12GB with GDDR5 (384Bit) or even 12GB GDDR5x like by TitanXP.
If its 12GB GDDR5x then it will attack TitanXP too much, I think they won't allow that, 10GB & 320Bit looks a bit cheap for enthusiast class gpu. That 12GB GDDR5 seems to be the best bet, 384GB/s and OC that to 11Ghz and its what 420GB/s?

Hmm the only question that remains is why do we need this card?. The titan X will drop in price like every card eventually does and what is the point of a TI then?
i guess it is just like the slogan "because we can" Anyhow not really that interesting and we all know they will squeeze the lemon dry on pricing that card as high as possible below the titan X
