Can't wait for the new GPUs And even for the benchmarks. What do you think, which one will be the best fit for me, when I have a 2560x1080p 75Hz FreeSync monitor? Which one will allow me to get 60-75 fps in all games in ultra at this resolution? The rest of my rig is i5 6600k and 16 GB DDR4 RAM.

That's less demanding than 1440p, and current cards like the 970, 980 and 390/X should do it for many, but not all, games.

The GTX 1070 could be your best (and cheaper) bet from Nvidia, and who knows if the big Polaris 10 from AMD could fill that spot too.

But I would wait until we get actual reviews because Nvidia has only compared the 1080 vs 980Ti/Titan X in VR scenarios, which might not represent its real life performance, and there's not enough info about the 1070 or Polaris to guess how they'll compare with the current cards.

I was thinking a 980Ti or the upcoming 1080 would be overkill for what my monitor can do. Something along the lines of 390 or 390X would probably fit better and due to FreeSync I'm leaning towards AMD, but if 1070 is really on par with Titan (don't believe it one bit personally), getting it would be a no-brainer. Arrrgh, the excitment about how both companies are gonna stack is starting to be too much Release 'em already!!

Do you think it will be possible to get a GPU that allows me to hit rock solid 75fps@2560x1080p at ultra settings in all games for $400 or less?
