I must say you have kept this thread alive with new updates at regular intervals and considering the age of this thread that is a fabulous job, kudos

Agree'd. Kudos to the OPs maintaining the first post when possible or posting updated stuff in general threads. Easier to find info that is sometimes lost in-fighting or other threads.


I got my Ultrawide all setup, my Hybrid and Note 7 arrives tomorrow. Dis gonna be a fun weekend!!! Picked up a new SSD. Gonna do a fresh install of everything hopefully this weekend.

This may have been already mentioned, but this page talks about Pascal's async compute support (via "preemption", rather than hardware "ace" units):

It's amazing how powerful you can spec a laptop to be today... 512GB SSD, 1TB Storage, 6820HK, 64GB RAM, GTX 1070/1080.

Too bad the only one with a 1080 currently is a big booty sager looking MSI that's about three inches thick.

Not really: https://www.amazon.com/MSI-GT73VR-SLI-058-Extreme-i7-6820HK/dp/B01IS33HAK

Pretty heavy by modern standards but I remember kids carrying around this size for school work. Amazing to put into a backpack and VR.

HI guys how are you?

Can you guys tell me how much can you get stable OC with 1080 SLI?

I can get 2050 in cores and 5400 on memos

With a single card is way easier here to get something stable, with SLI way harder

Thanks

Bought a 1080. What's the best way to over clock this thing? Seems to boost to 2GHz by itself sometimes. EVGA GeForce GTX 1080. Thanks.

The max overclock you will get is something about ~2100

What model you got?

Hi. Thanks for the quick reply. I bought the EVGA super clocked version.

 

[StinkyPinky]

I also bought a 1070 and am wondering what is a safe overclock without touching the voltage? Googling it usually jsut brings up reviews with voltage tweaks and I cannot be bothered with that (yet). At the moment I just use afterburner to randomly bump it to 1671 (1871 boost) and ran benchmarks for an hour with no issues. Seems like it can go higher?

Same boat I'm in. Outside of fine tuning MSI AB and getting another 10-20mhz on the read out, seems leaving my EVGA GTX 1080 FTW Hybrid on stock gets me 2050mhz+ @ 1.1v or in that range.

While I'm not complaining, sucks the fun out of finding the perfect clocks haha. Memory does +450 without even coughing.

I'd like to share some interesting details about NVIDIA's future products, courtesy of well-known leaker Ishimura (from chinese Baidy forums):

- Huang will unveil the Volta architecture as well as an updated roadmap at GTC 2017 (May 8-11th)
- Consumer Volta products might not be launched next year
- Next year's high-end products are mainly GP102, not GP104
- Further TSCM process improvements: expect (even) higher clocked parts + enhanced stability at these speeds
- All desktop VGAs (except GP107 products) should get GDDR5X
- GTX 1060/1070 successors: expect higher clocks + GDDR5X
- Current GDDR5X yields are less than stellar, Tesla P40 uses a special ECC version - pressure is on for Micron
- NVIDIA + Micron (and Samsung) partnership is going strong: Micron is releasing GDDR6 for Volta in 2018 - expect speeds >12-14 Gbps for 256-bit products and increased capacity as well (16GB standard)
- GV102 default (with 384-bit GDDR6) might be 24GB
- HBM2 only for special products
- Next year there should be a 32GB Quadro

Most of this makes perfect sense and lines up exactly with expectations in performance and refresh time lines. GP104 best chip will get 11-12ghz GDDR5X upgrade and very small bump in core clock, resulting in a 10% performance improvement at similar power consumption levels. 2nd tier GP104 will get 10ghz GDDR5X and perhaps the laptop version of 2048 cores, resulting in a 10-15% performance improvement, and so on and so forth. I don't really see GP106 (GTX 1060) benefiting much from GDDR5X though.... it has significantly more bandwidth per it's ROP / shader power than GTX 1080 does.

Anyways.... unfortunately for the competition, Nvidia is a well oiled machine currently firing on all the right cylinders.

It does seem remarkably sane/likely (in a broad sense at least.). If they combine it with a modest price cut/reorganisation they can get their ~30% year on year increase at a given price point without any pain, or even really enormous effort.

Doing the same again with Volta will be harder of course, but it would be pretty strange to bet against them doing it given the recent history.

Titan X (Pascal) @ Titanfall 2:

Doesn't look very demanding.

First Benchmarks and Board/Die Pictures (GTX 1050 Ti)

Colorful Geforce GTX 1050 Ti:

It's basically at stock (only 9 MHz above BenchLife's leaked turbo clock). Looks very promising.

Here's older cards in comparison:

Some new info.

1050 Ti:
Single GPC with 768 SPs (unlike other Pascal GPUs)
Performs very well, could match Tonga at a much lower TDP
1050: 640 SPs
1040: 512 SPs, 16 ROPs, 64-bit - also based on GP107
1030 and 1020: GM107 instead of GP108 (latter could be mobile only)

As demand from the gaming market continue rising, and virtual reality (VR) applications are growing popular, graphics card players such as Micro-Star International (MSI), Asustek Computer, Gigabyte Technology, Colorful, Galaxy and Zotac, are seeing their Nvidia-based mid-range to high-end product sales increase with MSI and Gigabyte expected to ship over 4.8 and 3.45 million graphics cards in 2016, according to sources from the upstream supply chain.

Nvidia is expected to release its new GTX 1050 and GTX 1050Ti GPUs in the near future and graphics card players are optimistic about the new GPUs' shipments in the fourth quarter, the traditional slow season, helping their overall shipments drop only 10% sequentially.
