The GeForce GTX 980 Ti was a high-end graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on June 2nd, 2015. Built on the 28 nm process, and based on the GM200 graphics processor, in its GM200-310-A1 variant, the card supports DirectX 12. This ensures that all modern games will run on GeForce GTX 980 Ti. The GM200 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 601 mm² and 8,000 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked GeForce GTX TITAN X, which uses the same GPU but has all 3072 shaders enabled, NVIDIA has disabled some shading units on the GeForce GTX 980 Ti to reach the product's target shader count. It features 2816 shading units, 176 texture mapping units, and 96 ROPs. NVIDIA has paired 6 GB GDDR5 memory with the GeForce GTX 980 Ti, which are connected using a 384-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 1000 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1076 MHz, memory is running at 1753 MHz (7 Gbps effective).
Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti draws power from 1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 250 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x DVI, 1x HDMI 2.0, 3x DisplayPort 1.2. GeForce GTX 980 Ti is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 3.0 x16 interface. The card's dimensions are 267 mm x 111 mm x 40 mm, and it features a dual-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 649 US Dollars.
