Great!

Erm... We 1080 don't know the real performance of the 1080, much less the one of the 1070, but the numbers are not even close to that.

If that deleted video is anything to go by, the 1080 is around 50% faster than the 980Ti. And with the 1080 being a 180W card and the 980Ti a 250W, the power consumption reduction is roughly 30%.

How do you go from those numbers to that 3x?

Also, many mini-itx cases (Cooler Master's CM120 and 130, Prodigy, etc) can house regular graphic cards.

I'm totally forgot which one of 3x or 2x, didn't bother recheck xP

I heard many people recommeneded the fractal node 202, but fitting is hard.. :S

*Goes to check online*

You've choosen an old fashioned case!

It seems that it doesn't fit cards longer than 310mm, but even that should be enough for reference gfx cards, the 980Ti, 980 and 970 with stock coolers are shorter than that. Did you get one with a third party cooler?

 

Also, a new rumor about AMD and Vega

AMD allegedly pushes VEGA GPU forward to October

http://videocardz.com/59808/amd-vega-gpu-allegedly-pushed-forward-to-october
and here (in german): http://www.3dcenter.org/news/amd-zieht-den-vega-launch-angeblich-auf-oktober-2016-vor

According to 3DCenter, AMD decided to release VEGA sooner than previously planned. VEGA 10 GPU (’10’ is speculated codename) is currently expected to launch alongside Battlefield 1 somewhere in October. This is of course just preliminary date, which can still change in one way or another, but it basically means VEGA would launch one quarter sooner than official roadmaps originally suggested.

Is AMD that affraid of the GTX1080? Did they underestimate Nvidia and thought they would be closer than they are with Polaris? Things are getting interesting!
