NVIDIA Pascal Thread

09:41PM EDT - So around 20% faster?

09:41PM EDT - Titan X: ~3.6. GTX 1080: ~4.3

 

[happy medium]

1070 faster than a titanx

 

[Hitman928]

1070
$379

Huge gap between 1080 and 1070

What the heck is the Founders Edition?

 

[SteveGrabowski]

GTX 1070 $379, for sale June 10th, faster than Titan X

 

[jpiniero]

May 27th, $599

$599 is better than expected. It will be quite the paper launch though. I bet you won't see any of the non-'founders edition' for quite some time.

 

[Silverforce11]

He's claiming twice the perf of Titan X. In DX12 Quantum Break surely.

$699 founders edition?!

 

[Udgnim]

RIP AMD

was expecting AMD to beat Nvidia to market

I was wrong

 

[utahraptor]

Well, at least this gives me something to look forward to (big pascal)

 

[Mopetar]

$599 according to WCCF http://wccftech.com/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1080-launch/

So nVidia has increased performance 15% at the $600 price point, however remember you could find 980ti's for $560 so we aren't seeing much of an improvement here at all. Pretty low strategy if they hold out on the 1070...

If you're expecting best value per dollar at the high end, you're going to be disappointed.

 

[Saylick]

Oh crap. $379 for 1070 for Titan X perf. AMD better unleash P10 at some substantial perf or else they are already blown out of the water.

 

[tenks]

the girl screaming and interrupting every few minutes is really annoying.


1070 looks nice, need specs

That's with VR + the multi projection thing, not in general.

 

[xAlias]

That $379 1070 with Titan X performance!! Damn!!

 

[Hitman928]

What the heck is the Founders Edition?

Essentially an overclock edition it sounds like. Beefed up power delivery and probably higher tdp to get higher clocks.

Expected more for a ~330mm die?

 

[tviceman]

I'm not sure how I feel about "founders edition" cards. WTF does that even mean?

 

[SteveGrabowski]

The 1070 is about where I figured it would be performance wise, eg, slightly above stock 980 Ti, but $380 is about $40 cheaper than I was expecting. Not too bad.

 

[Silverforce11]

$379 is very aggressive on the 1070, much better than expected.

Then you should brace for more disappointments from AMD.

 

[Cookie Monster]

The reference card also seems to have a reference back plate.

 

[96Firebird]

What the heck is the Founders Edition?

My guess is vapor chamber, I don't think the current reference 980s use it...

Or maybe a CLC.

 

[MrTeal]

Uh in VR games where they have employed a specialized effect that the Titan X can't do..

Man the people shrieking at $599 "I CAN AFFORD THAT". Ugh so cringey~!

Yeah, the audience was cringeworthy.

Are those TFLOP numbers SP or half precision? Doubling the compute power over the 980 is a pretty good result given the smaller die.

Special badge to say you're in the CLUB(tm).

$379 and $599.

Huge gap. There's no chance for 1070 to catch the 1080, gimped GDDR5 bandwidth starved. NV has done their homework and they want people to buy the 1080 if they want that performance.
