Funny thing is....
People are pricing these things over $1000

when...

YOU CAN BUY 2 GTX 980TI CARDS AND SLI THEM FOR UNDER $1000 NOW AND HAVE MORE POWER

Yep.

For GP104 it's silly. But it's the 3 cycle release strategy by nVidia of Little, Full, Big which puts ppl in tough stops.

Plus production is just not there. Not sure if it's an archetecture that nVidia designed that doesn't have good yields or not.

Except for those that don't want two cards. A 1080 replacing 970's worth it at MSRP I will wait until the stock hits the market before buying.

There's no way in hell I would pay $1000 for a single card. Hell the $700 I payed for my 1080 was my absolute max and I had to talk myself into it. I went from a busted GTX 580 so I think the upgrade was worth it for me but I definitely see the wisdom in waiting.
