Hopefully none of the miners are cancelling their orders because they're now waiting for the imminent 11 series.
It sounds like it's down to the Bitcoin market so fingers crossed... I may be able to afford to finish putting together that living room PC I promised myself, study is too small for VR

1080 for £470? That's not a bad price it's less than RRP I think. I *almost* bit a few weeks back for an inno3D X2 1080ti for £630. I am still undecided if I regret not getting it....
The thing is the 1080ti is not a 4k capable gpu that you can just pick ultra for everything and not worry about performance. In all honesty I doubt the 1180 will be either but I can't wait till the 1180ti as am getting upgradeitis after having the same GPU since Nov 2014

I doubt retailers are going to just drop the prices back to pre mining days as long as miners are still paying whatever for the hardware, most of the UK online is still hoovering around the usual high price for GPU's, i think their lowest gtx1080 is £490, and i doubt we will see them drop in any great amount, maybe when the 11 series come sout the GTX1070 might take a dive simply due to miners moving to better faster hardware,....but at present they are still just silly.......and yes, i bought a GTX1080 for £470 before Xmas because i am complete twat, talk about buyer remorse. lol
