Toss my guess its akin to GTX 1070.

I'm confused by their 3DMark 11 chart:

According to Futuremark, the 3DMark 11 scores rank the cards as follows:

26,310 - R9 295X2
24,550 - GTX 980Ti
23,280 - GTX Titan X

Am I missing something?

Why a 24" laptop...

Why a 24" laptop...

Less "lap" top and more "mobile desktop" would be my guess. Maybe for dorm room or lan party type of thing? Something where you don't want to pack up and move a monitor + desktop. Not a traveling laptop for sure ;D

Hmm, it seems ASUS has replaced an image for this story, which was first posted here...

They are still hosting the old image on their site though.

that is a true desktop replacement

Prepare for 30 minutes of battery life.

desktop replacements are never unplugged unless moving to a different desk

Probably because that's how big it needs to be to keep a GPU like that cool in a laptop form factor

What if this is Polaris 11? :whiste:

why not? doesn't matter either. as long as it is can beat a titan x, it is golden!

I liked it that the score difference in the chart for all those GPUs are around 5% but the chart was designed to look like there's a big difference.

Haha but mobile GPU with that performance is awesome

5%?! Where?!

The biggest is 3% and the smallest is... 0.02%

Why everyone benchmarks 3D Mark 11 with those new GPUs and not 3D Mark which is newer and better ??

also, where the hell is DX-12 3D Mark ??

Few possibilities -

1. GTX 1070. Full desktop version. One issue - "We are not allowed to reveal specs". 1070 specs are already public.

2. 480X. Full desktop version.

3. 1080M. Like all x80M, this needs to have a 100W TDP. Unless GP104 is a Fiji like case where they are pushing way outside the optimal clock speed / W ratio, I don't see this performance in 100W happening. Has anyone done underclocking/volting tests on 1080?

4. M490 CF.

Edit - So, I missed the old GXXX label. Probably a 1070 then, or that could be the model number of the laptop.

Are those stock of overclocked scores?

Harder to keep up with the news when the main thread is hidden in an empty subforum.

I think they're going to either provide a desktop Geforce GTX 1070 style solution, or a lower clocked 2560 CUDA cores chip with GDDR5.

Yeah, their graph makes zero sense. Its either fabricated or they had some strange settings, and crossfire was off.

The chart, based on the link 96Firebird posted, is the total score, not the graphics score. So the whole system plays a part in the score, not just the GPU. It's possible they are different laptop systems they compared.
