NVIDIA to Launch GeForce GTX 980 Ti After Summer
NVIDIA reportedly adjusted launch of the GeForce GTX 980 Ti, to after Summer, 2015. The company could be using the time to let the market digest existing inventories of the GTX 980 (and avoid the repeat of slow sales on its GTX 770), particularly in the early-Summer season, when PC enthusiasts and gamers tend to upgrade or build afresh. The time could also be spent to watch what AMD comes up with, for its Radeon R9 390X.
The R9 390X, scheduled for a June-July launch, is based on a silicon that looks competitive with the GM200 on paper, and introduces a few new features, such as high-bandwidth memory (HBM). The GTX 980 Ti could feature an identical core-configuration to the GTX TITAN X, but feature half the memory amount at 6 GB, different clock speeds, and freedom for add-in card (AIC) partners to innovate custom-design cards.

@Chaitanya heck, even the 750 series cards are too good for FPS titles like L4D2 while breaking the 120fps barrier with ease at Maxed out settings. XD
i dont really fancy a pair of 390x in matx, it would melt, if i bought 2 980s the Ti's would destroy them and i'd be pissed and resentful, the prices of titans and 980s would drop and be on mass deals, i could wait but then my funds would probably be halved by spending, i could buy a titanX then another but when the ti is released.
i bet there will be a price hike just before the release of the Ti/390x like usual business tactics...
Disclaimer: Original Titan buyer. Once bitten......
i just wonder if nvidia learnt from before and will gimp the 980ti to fit just below the titanX and price accordingly, or have another 780ti saga! i've been looling at several reviews and the titanX with a decent OC keeps up with 980sli at 4k.... its a moral dilemma!
just read above post, who am i kidding...
It sounds to me like they think they have an equal or better product than the 390X... Which is quite possible. Who can say at this point?
@the54thvoid
to be fair, there isn't much else that could've been inferred from your post besides gayness or some other weird sexual deviation (not saying gay is a deviation, that's not my place or opinion). You mentioned "Unless that breaks your countries laws." I know you didn't mean anything by it but just saying...
Yes, and we migrate in winter to lay our eggs and nest.
Remember that time when AMD showed up with the R9 290/290X line with great prices (for the time). That's when "magically" nVidia showed up with the 780 at the same magic price point and the 780 Ti to keep the crown at a higher price.
If AMD were truly competitive with the Titan X, expect the 980 Ti or 990 or whatever to come not long after. If it's not, expect it around the same time as the 980 and 970's release.
Which Summer?
Our Summer ended a month ago, how long do we have to wait!
Not everyone lives in opposites land where Summer is about to begin.
except they offering better features with lower power consumption
