NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Put Through 3DMark

[Vayra86]

Expecting a company to try harder because people elect to band together and boycott their product does a few things:
1) Share price crash
2) Your pious campaign leads to job lay offs and cut's in R&D.
3) The product actually gets worse.
4) The competition sees the opportunity to make profit for it's shareholders and raises it's own prices due to market conditions.
5) The slide of the other company continues for years, allowing the other to profit even more

Does that sound familiar - oh yeah - it's what happened in a sense to AMD. You are outrageously so far away from business reality it's almost comical. Big business does NOT listen to it's consumers - it is dictated to by it's shareholder to whom it owes everything. Shareholders demand a return on investment and that is acquired through profiteering at our expense. That is capitalism. I don't like it but I understand it.

The only and I mean THE ABSOLUTE ONLY incentive for Nvidia to lower it's prices is when AMD has the stand out best gfx chip and prices it in such a way Nvidia will only make sales if it lowers it's profit margin.

Stop blaming Nvidia for making profit for it's shareholders - blame the absolute lack of high end competition from AMD. And yes - I am actually very surprised that Fury X didn't claw that back a lot more than it did because Fury X is a great gfx card but AMD priced it (initially) at the same price and hey, guess what - Nvida didn't need to make their product cheaper. AMD got screwed as soon as they released the HD7970 at the inflated price they did. That opened Nvidia's floodgate of overpriced 104 chips, made worse by luxury price 100 chips.

I'm not having a go at you Zone, I'm really not - but as admirable as your stance is for better consumer prices the market reality of capitalist economics doesn't give a shit. Until AMD match Nvidia stride for stride and make their product MORE desirable, Nvidia prices wont budge.

I studied a module on economics at Uni, so I know enough to see the unfortunate picture. I do think unless Nvidia pulls a rabbit out the hat that AMD might just start to get a snowball effect if they push the DX12 and GCN message
enough. But they also need to push developer adoption of large queue Async because with Pascal's rumoured clock speeds, it looks like they might be trying to brute force Async until Vega.

Thank you, sir, for the dose of realism.

People seem to think they live in Utopia sometimes, especially when the hype train for a new GPU release is starting again. It never ceases to amaze me. Just a month ago everyone 'needed HBM2'.

 

[Prima.Vera]

My guess is that HBM2 will be used a little later for the new Titan, and maybe 1080Ti (really hope so)

 

[Fluffmeister]

The GP100 is currently lapping up the HBM2 supply for Nv's big bucks HPC client deals.

The question is how do these benchmarks compare to a 980 Ti. The 27,000 score is from 3dmark 11 ( an old 720p test) which My 980 Ti SC+ scores a 26,000 and the Fire strike extreme score (1440p) of 10,000 which my 980 Ti SC+ got 9200 on. For reference My 980 Ti is OC to 1,300 MHz over its 1191 base clock. I’ll be generous and go by the stock benchmarks the 980 Ti gets in Firestrike Extreme (8500) and 3D Mark 11 (24,500). So at best your getting a 15-20% increase over a stock 980 Ti and for someone with an overclocked 980Ti your basically getting a no percent increase.

Numbers mean nothing to me if I don't have anything to compare them with. Can someone also post numbers for current gen cards using similar system?

Im getting 12,168 with 2 GTX 980's SLI on Firestrike Extreme. Thats with a 12 Core Xeon @ 4.5 Ghz on an Asus ROG x58!

This is 980ti @ factory boost 1405mhz,

http://www.3dmark.com/fs/8357945
Graphics Score 9 340
Physics Score 13 411
Combined Score 4 214


around 700points (or maaybe 2-3fps) behind that 1850mhz 1080gtx.. If that's base freq. then it means its oc'ed too.. Well I assume that since both 780gtx and 980ti reads base freq.

 

[medi01]

From a marketing perspective, they wouldn't want the x80 slot empty in their lineup only to be filled in a while later.

Dude. Fury.
Ti was to spoil it.

I looked up my benchmark
http://www.3dmark.com/fs/5090497
and if the 1080 benchmark is not bogus... The gtx 1080 will be equivalent to two GTX 980's ...

firestrike extreme... http://www.3dmark.com/fs/5090798

interesting... My Oc firestrike ultra bench
http://www.3dmark.com/fs/5311970
Is 6240, compared to the "leaked" gtx1080 oc score of 6232. See the post below...
Is 5750 Non-oc benchmark (mine) http://www.3dmark.com/fs/5153181

Of course, when when you set the render output(resolution tp 1080p )in 3dmark ultra and use a 4k gsync monitor (xb280) you can get a boost in the score to 6156 (gtx980SLI stock) http://www.3dmark.com/fs/5153245http://www.3dmark.com/fs/5153245

I REALLY hope thar a 1080 is equal to a SLI980!... The buttery smoothness that is a single card is heaven!
(OTOH hand as long as the min fps on a single card gtx980 does not go below 30fps, the SLI is "smooth")

Frankly the 600 dollar card should be the TI and these people have been ripping us off, for far too long. Do not expect results as good as they have been stating.. I'm calling bullshit..

600 dollar card

Last time I checked it was 699$, no less, any time soon.

But that's a fair price for 10x Maxwell. (Although, Maxwell was in no way lesser physicist, than Pascal, I'd say, rather on the opposite)

That has nothing to do with GTX 1080..Its only by Double precision and FP16 deep learning CUDA apps.. A misleading slide imo.

What you call "fair" I call price gouging..
