So today I cancelled my upcoming 880m equipped laptop on its14th working day, very close to being built and shipped (I assume)
Did I suffer from temporary insanity??? - I hear your call. It wasn't an easy choice I'll admit.
Nope, I was informed by the very helpful PCS customer service rep that the Gtx 980m is but a month or two away from being offered on this fine site. And it makes the 880m look damn weak -

I personally am extremely excited about this upcoming card, and cannot wait for PCS to begin stocking it. The sales guy (who's name I wish I could remember as he was very helpful) couldn't give me an exact release date or prices, but confirmed it would be relatively soon and rather good bang for your buck.
Hopefully as soon as it's available I'll be grabbing a decent chassis with 2x 980m in SLI (I almost want to say... Futureproof?) With the 880ms well documented driver issues and minimal improvement over the 780m im damn glad that there is a waiting list for laptops at the moment, or I could be typing this on a laptop I'd have regretted splashing the cash on.
Felt I had to register and post to share the good news...
If anyone has any more concrete info please post, I'd love to know more.
Cheers, Tom
