NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Faster than GTX TITAN X

NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce GTX 1070 graphics card, which NVIDIA is pinning its summer upgrade revenue on, is shaping up to be faster than the previous-generation enthusiast GeForce GTX TITAN X. 3DMark FireStrike numbers scored by VideoCardz reveal that averaged across three popular resolutions - 1080p (FireStrike standard), 1440p (FireStrike Advanced), and 4K (FireStrike Ultra), the GTX 1070 is about 3 percent faster than the GTX TITAN X.

At FireStrike (standard), the GTX 1070 scored 17557 points, versus 17396 points of the GTX TITAN X; 8327 points at FireStrike Advanced against 7989; and 4078 points at FireStrike Ultra against 3862, respectively. The performance lead is highest at 4K Ultra HD. Based on the 16 nm GP104 silicon, the GeForce GTX 1070 features 1,920 CUDA cores, 120 TMUs, and 8 GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 8.00 GHz (256 GB/s). The MSRP for this SKU is set at $379, although its reference design board will be sold at a $70 premium, for $449, when the card goes on sale this 10th June.

The title should be changed to ...when overclocked, compared to a stock card.

Now, don't let such a minor detail get in the way of Nvidia's PR machine...or the large number of sheep who bleated in orgasmic glee at the claim. :-)

But it can't even maintain its OC over time on some tests

Peak performance has never been an indicator of real world performance.
When a company states "up to" I take that the same way as sales "start from", they rarely are that figure.

Correct, there's not a big difference between "clocking high and going down" and "clocking low and going high", the latter is just better in PR and on paper because you can use the "boost" or "OC" term whereas the other states "going down" which is usually reminded a bad thing. Well the usual problems AMD has compared to NV (PR).

"
Remember, we have two listings for the GTX 1070 here; one at the expected MSRP of partner cards and one at the Founders Edition price that is $70 more expensive. Let’s discuss the easy results first. The GeForce GTX 980 is clearly a “bad deal” for a new GPU if the prices stay at the $499 price, which I don’t expect they will. The same is true for the Radeon R9 Nano, at $499 it doesn’t perform as well as the GTX 1070 so it takes a big hit here.

But look at the GeForce GTX 970 and the Radeon R9 390X – both of them are competitive with this value metric going against the new GTX 1070, and when you compare them to the Founder Edition price, both of them are actually equal "values" in a couple of instances! This was not the case with the GTX 1080 – the Fury X didn’t even come close to the value of the GTX 1080 in large part due to the large performance gap between the two cards."

Yes and the best price to performance card is even missing, the R9 390. I think prices of the Fiji cards will come down soon, AMD will try and get rid of them before they are obsolete and to sell the new cards that are released soon. If rumours are true, even their own cards will make Fiji cards obsolete - better said, especially their own cards, because they are even better priced than GTX 1070.
