actually it isn't really a secret, coinwarz was putting it on top of their profitability list some days ago already...
I see. I stopped checking profitability calculators and multipools months ago as they were always far behind in terms of profitabiltiy.
the latest rumors seem to say that because the 16nm-die are delayed the 980ti will be delayed too...
Well, the 780 Ti was released about 5 months after the 780 so it might take a while for the 980 Ti to be released.
On a sidenote, the 1000 series cards (2016) will have some interesting features:
3D Memory: Stacks DRAM chips into dense modules with wide interfaces, and brings them inside the same package as the GPU. This lets GPUs get data from memory more quickly – boosting throughput and efficiency – allowing Nvidia to build more compact GPUs that put more power into smaller devices. The result: several times greater bandwidth, more than twice the memory capacity and quadrupled energy efficiency.
Unified Memory: This will make building applications that take advantage of what both GPUs and CPUs can do quicker and easier by allowing the CPU to access the GPU’s memory, and the GPU to access the CPU’s memory, so developers don’t have to allocate resources between the two.
NVLink: Today’s computers are constrained by the speed at which data can move between the CPU and GPU. NVLink puts a fatter pipe between the CPU and GPU, allowing data to flow at more than 80GB per second, compared to the 16GB per second available now.
Pascal Module: NVIDIA has designed a module to house Pascal GPUs with NVLink. They are one-third the size of the standard boards used today.
(either utc or yac...)
should i get a 970 or a 980. and what is the preferred brand.
