Quote from NudeRaider
I'm eying for a GTX980. When can we expect the price to drop by about 20% due to new tech or something? Is this going to happen in the foreseeable future?
The Geforce 1000 series is coming out this year. Don't know what month. Expect prices to go then.

But I don't know why you'd go for the 980. 970 is a better bet for price per performance.

If you really want that extra 2GB of VRAM then get the 980 Ti. The 980 is in that kind of weird no-man's land between the 970 and 980 Ti and I really don't think the extra $200 price increase from the 970 justifies the extra 5 or 10 frames per second performance gain you'll get.
