GTX 970
But emphasis on the 1080 is unfair on the GTX 1070, which I believe may be the card that sits at the heart of the average gamer over the next year.  It replaces the GTX 970 and yet sits nearer to the Titan X in terms of power, for only £35 more than the GTX 970.  Yes, it’s more money, but that small increase gives you a huge amount of graphics power in return.
The fact that the 1070 is coming later, June 10th, means that we still don’t have all the figures for it, but from what we’ve seen it should be a clear winner in the mid-market and with 8GB over the 970’s 4GB (ok 3.5 to split hairs) RAM there’s no doubting that the price point hits the sweet spot of power vs price. Â It should also feature many of the additional tweaks and tools for things like VR that the GTX 1080 boasts.
Price and Release Dates
The UK price for the Founders spec of the GTX 1080 is set at £619, though expect a flurry of cards from third parties to hit the market at the same time and at a much cheaper price.  MSI and ASUS should be producing their cards shortly and it will be worth looking to see what they can provide above and beyond the standard Nvidia card.
The 1070 doesn’t have a UK price yet, but expect it to be around £380 upwards for the Founders version and nearer £300 for third party and standard versions.
