Some more stuff
It's a pity they don't offer a version utilizing HBM 2 memory like their "computing card" P100 does
Why do you need one outside games?
Are they adding native HEVC h.265 support in these?
They did not tell, but I suppose that yep.
Lots of 1080 reviews today.
below are video encoding/decoding specs
I'm running GTX 970 right now with 2 4K monitors. How significant of an upgrade would it be to go from the 970 to 1070?
Pretty impressive performance over the GTX980/980TI... http://www.anandtech.com/show/10326/the-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1080-preview/2
they'd have serious anti-trust cases against them
What is exactly "serious anti-trust case" in capitalism? Like Microsoft had? Tail that wags the dog?
These appear to be really fantastic cards but nvidia charging an extra $100 for the lame "founders edition" aka early adopter tax, is bullshit.

Everything in capitalism sells for profit, and not just profit, but maximally possible profit.
With top CPUs and GPUs such approach works worse each year. Discounts will be present, but small, and usually more than 6 months after introduction.
I don't disagree. That being said it's what the market will bare. As long as the strategy works and people have and are eager to throw there money at them it will not change. I hope there are not to many willing participants those of us with more modest expendable cash must prudently wait : )
In what aspects if Davinci it is important?
For example, if you have just few nodes with color grading (global and attached to areas), will it help?
Generally, playback less than full would be improved as well as render operations. For example, a clip with looks cosmo applied used to render at 3.5-4 fps now goes 4.5-5. Threshhold smooth playback might become totally smoothe. All operations in the standard candle benchmark are faster. You could live without it if you already have a 980ti or titan but it is nice to have. It seems to suck up every last bit of PCI bus bandwidth on my x79.
