All three cards can probably be overclocked additional 50MHz, but it depends a bit on the cards. GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 are Founder`s Edition while the GTX 980Ti are also Reference model.
I`m not gonna link all results here, but post a couple few. Rest are in the link.
Summary:
1440P overclocked:
GTX 1070 is 3% faster than GTX 980Ti
GTX 1080 is 23% faster than GTX 980Ti
GTX 1070 is 27% faster than R9 Fury
GTX 1080 is 47% faster than R9 Fury
GTX 1070 is 31% faster than GTX 980
GTX 1080 is 51% faster than GTX 980
At 1550 MHz on a 980Ti I should be roughly the same or slightly faster than a 1070 and about -20% to a 1080. $300-400 to upgrade for 10-20fps is not worth it.
I can only get a max of about 1453 or so on my 980Ti Hybrid (I always seem to lose the silicon lottery :/), so this comparison is about right on the money for me.
I came across this today and had a good look at their benchmarks. I love how Overclockers Club review GPUs, they're one of my favorite review sites.
Interestingly the GTX 1070 stumbles when running The Division at 4K.
A driver update may increase the performance in situations like this. Driver updates which increase the performance in certain games were seen for the GTX 970 and 980.
Or it could be the memory bandwidth holding back the performance, I think it is unlikely that the memory bandwidth would be holding back the performance to this extent though.
Darn, they must have a sucky 980Ti or these two used ones I have run great. My two I can fold at around 1530MHz and bench at 1570MHz. They stock boost to around 1498MHz.
Still, hope they compare the big die once it drops later on. Anyone folded on these cards yet?
I'm still finding it hard to believe that anyone would pay the same price for a used GTX 980 Ti than a GTX 1070 when both have virtually the same performance but:
- The GTX 980 Ti would be used.
- The GTX 980 Ti has 25% less VRAM.
- The GTX 980 Ti is probably out of driver updates.
- The GTX 980 Ti uses way more power.
I wouldn't pay more than $300 for a used GTX 980 Ti.

It's probably going to be a while until a 1070 is 369 and stock will probably take a while? While maybe not the best value, it's hard to pass up the performance now for cheap(compared to release price). Driver support should be fine for a while atleast, and most don't care about your other 3 points.
When you factor in price, nothing really blows me away. Seems like the 1070 is already choking at 1440p with current games. Meh. Just meh. Maybe the 1080 Ti will impress me.

$30(all shipping cost) for me to step-up my 980Ti to a 1080FE, completely worth it. If you bought your 980Ti before March and not from EVGA, then your $$ calculation holds.
They should have cut down the 1070 less, they got it down not just 20% like before but now 25% compared to 1080, really kills the performance for 1070.

Next year when newer, more demanding games release, it'll be even slower. The only viable card for 1440p at a decent frame rate is the 1080, and for a thousand bucks Canadian, no thanks.
Are the 900 series cards also overclocked in these benchmarks?
Because if not the 1070/1080 are even more underwhelming then I was led to believe.. and the fact that with the reference cooler on the 1070/1080 gets VERY HOT and throttles all the way down to stock speeds in some cases.
2GHz being the barrier for OC as well, while Nvidia were showcasing 2100Mhz+ OC "on air, 67C."
Damn. Pretty disappointing especially at flagship price point with the 1080.
