So My estimates of October 1st were pretty accurate, if this is true.
genbrien
If those dates are true, when do you think we'll get the mobile version of those GPUs?

Estimates of what? The 1160?
fantaskarsef
I think he meant time frame wise.

Nice. Let's see how this new gen will perform.

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

GamerMeld is a hyper, this has to be fake 100%.

The 1180 could still be GDDR5X and the 1180+ a GDDR6 model ?
Embra
Are we assuming the 1180+ is the Ti?
warlord
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.

Thank goodness for the EVGA step-up program. I just bought a 1080 ti.
EL1TE
The 1180+ might be a typo and refers to the 1170 Ti however that's unlikely for the simple reason that it would be almost as good as a standard 1180 if that's anything like the 1070Ti.
What can happen and i said before a few weeks ago is that they might make a more powerful than the Ti and non-Titan GPU, for example:
1180
1180 Ti
1180 EX (example short name for extreme)
386SX
Nobody yet wonders what's hidden at point (4) and what happens on 10/08/2018? 🙂
But wait, wasn't there a time where they told us they didn't have any cards in stock because of bitcoin miners, therefore the horribly raised prices back then? But now they do not know where to sell them?
I've got a great idea: How about dropping the prices by say 50% so everyone who "payed the price" ealier may benefit now (and others, too) and buy a GTX1080 for 250 - 300 Euros, limited to two purchases per customer (considering miners)? Stocks will decrease fast, profit will be made and nothing blocks NVIDIA from releasing the 11xx series. A big WIN for everyone.

OR....they can hold prices where they are, release new cards that destroy these performance-wise, and charge an arm and a leg for them! Its the Nvidia way and they dont lose a penny of profits....
tunejunky
hold back the flames.
i seriously doubt the veracity of the alleged cards and release dates. after several manufacturers had very good results with massdrop as a new distribution channel and with shiploads of
10xx cards unsold, there is no business reason to launch at this time.
now, if there was a huge promotion behind the unsold 10xx cards - before the release of 11xx, i might believe Christmas as the release date.
as for Gamescom, i love Germany, but the event (and the market) is too small for such a major reveal.
with the pent-up enthusiast demand, CES is much more apropos for a launch than an obscure gamer convention.
this smells too much like wishful thinking and/or driving up sales of passes for the convention.
we have to remember this is a business, and that the shareholders take priority over everything.
taking a bath with unused backstock eats into profits and therefore stock price.
as a fan, i wish this was true. i have a good home waiting for the 1180.
