UPDATE: According to a tweet from Jason Evangelho, the GTX 1080 NDA will be lifted on May 17. The tweet has since been removed, though. Do note that this is just a rumour, as we've heard nothing official yet.

It appears Nvidia has already issued some review samples of the GTX 1080. A few lucky reviewers have already gotten their hands on their hands on Nvidia's upcoming flagship GPU.
One of the fortunate fellows who already received their sample is Jason Evangelho, PC tech contributor at Forbes. He published an image on Twitter, showing the gorgeous box the card comes in. The box features a tesselation graphic, as well as Nvidia's catchphrase: 'Inspired by gamers, built by Nvidia'.

Sadly, Nvidia hasn't published a specific embargo date as of yet, so we still have no idea when we can expect reviews to go live. You can check out our comparison between the GTX 1080 and 980 Ti here, though.
The GTX 1080 will launch May 27th, with an MSRP of $599. The GTX 1070 will follow shortly after with RRP of $379.
You can join the discussion on the GTX 1080 review samples on the OC3D Forums.
