NVIDIA Could Unveil GeForce GTX 1180 on August 20
NVIDIA put out invitations to an August 20 event in Cologne, Germany. Dubbed "GeForce Gaming Celebration." There are ominous signs that the company could unveil its next-generation GeForce GTX 1180 graphics card. The GTX 1180 succeeds the GTX 1080, and is based on the new "Turing" silicon. The event is being held exactly a day before Gamecom 2018 gets underway.
An August 20 unveiling also bolsters credibility of an older report, which had pinned market availability of the GTX 1180 on 30th August, exactly 10 days from the event. The same report also foretells September 30 availability of the cheaper GTX 1170, and the pricier GTX 1180+, and October 30 availability of the performance-segment GTX 1160.

It has been a very long 2+ years. Crossing my fingers for another hyper-drive leap in Perf\watt in this industry. Also, hoping for one in consumer machine learning apps.
In the most demanding games today, 1080 Ti will drop below 30 fps at times when running 2160p. HDR even lower.
There's no way that 1180 is going to be 100% better than 1080 Ti.
If you don't care about running "ultra preset" - 4K/UHD @ 60 fps has been possible for a long time.
Goal is more like 4K/UHD at 120 fps now tho. No way I'm going back to 60 Hz/fps gaming on PC.
I'd choose 1440p @ 144-165 Hz over 2160p @ 60 Hz any day of the week, for PC gaming. Need at least 120 Hz, pref 144+
You think AMD is letting gamers even smell 7nm in enthusiast segment anytime soon you're crazy. They treat enthusiast gamers like morons.
My 980Ti is over 3 years old, I'm still happy with it, but depending on the price and performance of the new ones, I can think on buying one... we will see!
I'd like to start collecting some GPUs, figure might be a good time to start with new cards coming out....
