NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 8 GB

how the hell did the temp show only 67 degree at launch event? perhaps they fit an air conditioner in the case lol.

V-sync.

Yeah, pretty much any game with vsync off, they'll run up to the thermal throttle. Even FortressCraft: Evolved can hit 100% GPU load with vsync off.

That's for multi-GPU. A high power GPU like 980 Ti or Fury X needs a 500 or 600W PSU to run (depends on CPU too, of course). My system is a good example for that. The GTX 1080 uses much less power than these GPUs, so it's no problem.

its the low power usage that interests me.. similar performance at half the power usage.. my pair of 980 TI cards have more than enough performance to last for a while so any upgrade for me would be based purely on power heat noise factors.. burning (and have to cool) 300 watts i dont need to will probably niggle me a bit..

I just realised that @W1zzard changed his method to obtain clock comparison percentage for GTX 1080 default vs overclock. I don't know the reason why he changed the method but maybe it's related to GPU Boost 3.0 behavior.

You can see it for yourself :

For 980 he compared the BASE CLOCK vs overclocked base clock, 1127 to 1350 so 20% overclock : https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_980/29.html

Maximum overclock of our sample is 1350 MHz GPU base clock (20% overclock)

For 980 Ti he compared the BASE CLOCK vs overclocked base clock, 1000 to 1260 so 26% overclock : https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_980_Ti/34.html

Maximum overclock of our sample is +260 MHz to the GPU's base clock (26% overclock)

For Titan X he compared the BASE CLOCK vs overclocked base clock, 1000 to 1110 so 11% overclock : https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_Titan_X/32.html

Maximum overclock of our sample is +110 MHz to the GPU base clock (11% overclock)

But for GTX 1080 he changed the method to comparing the BOOST CLOCK : http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_1080/30.html

Maximum overclock of our sample is +453 MHz to the GPU's base clock, which increases max Boost from 1898 MHz to 2114 MHz (11% overclock)

So if we use the old method (comparing default base clock vs overclocked base clock), GTX 1080 will still get a good number of 28% base clock overclock.

1080 is only good for users who don't own a Fury X or GTX 980 Ti and only worthwile with custom cooling. The ref cooling version is severly hindered by its cooler = lower boost clocks + lower OC capability.

The "5 months after"-argument is moot. You could always say that. Yeah and after "daddy pascal" there comes "daddy Vega". What now? And after "daddy Vega" comes new architecture of Nvidia (kinda "Maxwell 2" architecture without productive crap that gamers don't need and wastes a lot of transistors). And after that there comes something new of AMD again. Like I said, a moot point.

No, what you say is ignorant. People buy things when they need them, they usualy DON'T wait (they only do if it's a few week, tops, not 5 months, lol). What I said was just, that the first GPU worthwile for enthusiast users (who obviously already have a enthusiast GPU) is most probably Vega10, end of story.

Good grief man. You're the one saying wait till Vega. When there is a card out now with unequivocally higher performance metrics. My point is neither ignorant or moot. Vega will bring HBM2, so what? So will consumer GP100 and big Vega. So the whole thing of saying, ignore GP104, wait for real next gen is hypocritical.
I know what you are implying, that GP104 isn't proper next gen but frankly, we know so little about Vega that it may not be hugely different from Fiji. HBM is no longer new tech. HBM2 is to HBM as GDDR5X is to GDDR5.

Long story short, if you pass GP104 because you want true next gen, you'll be upset when the proper (not crippled, again rumours) Vega part is released a few months after. Moral of story, buy when you want to buy. And also, nobody needs any of these powerful desktop gfx cards except for work.

What Map are you testing in Battlefield 4?

I changed the wording to better reflect the OC'd clocks on Boost 3.0

 

[BoyGenius]

Give it try & see for yourself
It will be more than twice as faster as far as benchmarks goes.

So should I finally consider replacing my 7950? Is the 1080 "fast enough" that I'll see a difference?

@W1zzard Could you please tell me how you bench WoW: WoD? Ive always been curious but never noticed how it's benched since it doesnt have a benchmarking mode.

You forgot to account for VAT difference. It's more like 40 pounds, not 140.

no mate , Ebuyer.com have the price 633 pounds ! so its not a joke ( to expensive )

"Listed". Not "avaliable".

I would appreciate if reviews were performed in a closed case and with a ~5 minute "warmup" of FurMark or something to give a more realistic measurement of the GPU's performance. These days GPUs are more and more aggressive boosting which means that short benchmarks will diverge quite a lot from actual real-world performance.

GTX 1080 is definetively the fastest card yet, but benchmarks tend to give exaggerate the performance gain.

And also interesting thread on a table with the classification chiphell graphics cards .. do not understand who did it , or if it is correct (I have not checked)

The closest test to do such a thing was from ComputerBase.de They checked clocks at 4K gaming inside a case

Toms Hardware did a heat up test on an Open Air test bed.

Probably pure speculation at this point, but there is in fact a GP102 in testing. The approximate size, CUDA cores, and memory configuration is though close to my guess. And since even GP102 wouldn't be fast enough to require HBM2 for gaming, I would actually prefer GDDR5X until big-Volta arrives.

I wonder what they will call the new Titan, "Titan X" (X for 10) is already taken. So "Titan 10" then?

That's right. That review is part of the reason why I mentioned it.

Am I the only one not impressed in the slightest with this card?

The GTX 980 came out with very similar performance gains, used the same manufacturing process, same memory type, and was priced almost £150 less than this thing at launch...I really don't see the point of this card. The games it beats the last gen 980Ti and Titan X at the most already run well enough on last gen cards (from 80 to 100 FPS etc - what is the point), except in the case of 4k where performance is still pathetic and unacceptable. The new VR features are unproven and need developer support so might as well be fluff as far as I'm concerned -- and still no clear explanation on how good Nvidia's support of Async Compute is with this gen (which makes me presume their cards are brute forcing it now with hopes of AMD changing plans and abandoning dedicated die space purely for compute).

As for their Founders Edition -- should've renamed it the Sucker's Edition with guaranteed buyer's remorse. £619 for what is, at best, a mid-range stopgap card...and I thought my Titan X was badly overpriced at £700 almost a year ago. Ridiculous...

P.S. and what's with that cooler design? Is that Nvidia's idea of trying to be "edgy"?
