Its always like that. every 6 months. Unless you pay every time its impossible to keep up.
I'm happy with my 1080. I got consistent 60 fps in 2560x1440 in Ghost Recon Wildlands. 4k is still a year or so away for me.

My desktop GTX1080 paired with my predator monitor /w 144hz is making me dizzy after a hr of play but other than that its blazing fast. Not a huge fan of 4k yet. I agree will wait more. |

Price isn't as bad as I thought it would be. But yeah, I'd wait for the inevitable price gouging to die down a bit and for people to start pushing them. I'm stoked with this 1070; just started to OC it and the 6700k last night |

IIRC, I got it to +145/400, or 2075/(forgot total mem). I used Afterburner, so nothing fancy. Ran it against Heaven on ultra. First time, so I'm a noob. Didn't mess with voltage. And yes, it's been stable thus far. Aside from Heaven, I played a bit of CSGO, but it was too late to put in extensive time.

Right now its running my VR games and all the current AAA titles just fine so if it does go to $400 next week i'll probably still wait out a special deal or promo on it.

Not interested in upgrading my CPU since most of my time on my PC is gaming and I'd see no gains.

Why is IPS better than TN for gaming? TN panels have 1ms response time.

TN panels color reproductions are bad and will often look washed out. Color clarity and contrast is night and day with IPS. My predator response time might be 4ms but does not lag with G-sync and 144hz(can overclock to 165hz)

Exactly. I could never go back to a TN panel.
