NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 On Linux: OpenGL, OpenCL, Vulkan Performance

If you looked at all of the results shown in this article, there isn't too much need for a conclusion... Many of the GeForce GTX 1080 numbers were phenomenal and represented huge improvements over the GeForce 900 "Maxwell" graphics cards and only furthering the performance advantage NVIDIA has over AMD on Linux, particularly for OpenGL when factoring in the respective company's drivers.

Not only was the GeForce GTX 1080 performing great with the raw performance in OpenGL, OpenCL, and Vulkan games and applications, but the performance-per-Watt was also nothing short of astonishing. In a few of the performance-per-Watt results, it was incredible to see how much further ahead Pascal has put NVIDIA even compared to just Maxwell cards from last year.

@ Head1985: I think it's Geforce GTX 1080M. They might also be producing a full Geforce GTX 1080 notebook variant with desktop-like specs at lower clocks (like previous gen).

Mobile was different last time too.

I think many would prefer a 1536SP 64 ROP 256-bit 4GB Maxwell card to the 1664SP 56 ROP 224-bit 3.5GB + 32-bit 0.5GB GTX 970 we got on desktop.

ASUS ROG just launched some laptops with full GM204 GTX 980s in them (GX800 and GX700), with rumored overclocks over 1400MHz...

People get so caught up in 5% to 10% gains in existing hardware. I've been playing this hardware game for a while. I've learned long ago that it's best to enjoy what you have now during any hardware generation. The hardware that's released in the near future is going to make the small overclock gains on existing hardware seem futile.

Buy now, enjoy now. Wait for gains in the next significant release.

You replace your SLI setup every 6-9 months with new releases?

Actually quite a lot of people do. Why do you think the titans and 1080's sell out as soon as they're available for sale.

Some people even invest in 1080 SLI, then upgrade in to 1080 Ti SLI as soon as they come out, then upgrade again in to Titan SLI as soon as those are here. I know a few folks that do this.

As long as it's faster, even if it's +5%, they'll buy it.

And as long as these sorts of people keep buying em.. and nvidia cards sell out globally as soon as they come for sale, year over year.... nvidia will keep raising prices more and more each year.

Overclocker's Club compared three of the fastest VGAs right now, with and without overclock in several different games.

Summary of Performance - 1440P Overclocked:

GTX 1070 is 3% faster than GTX 980 Ti
GTX 1080 is 23% faster than GTX 980 Ti

GTX 1070 is 27% faster than R9 Fury
GTX 1080 is 47% faster than R9 Fury

GTX 1070 is 31% faster than GTX 980
GTX 1080 is 51% faster than GTX 980




The cooling results again show that NVIDIA has installed a cooling solution that easily handles the thermals on the GTX 1070 Founders Edition. The three heat pipe-based cooler does well enough that the delivered temperatures when the fan speeds are maxed out is only two degrees warmer than MSI's righteous Twin Frozr V cooler, albeit a bit noisier in the sound department. This is a significant achievement with a blower-style cooler. The other upside is that the blower-style cooling solution used on NVIDIA's top tier Pascal architecture cards directs the thermal load outside the chassis, reducing any heat build up in the chassis. You can point to this as a win, but with the way chassis are built for clear directed airflow, the larger coolers have a place in the ecosystem.

Noise levels are quite impressive on the GTX 1070 Founders Edition card using the old ears. Much like the GTX 1080, the GTX 1070 does ramp up fairly quickly when under load with a noise commitment that is much like that of the GTX Titan X and GTX 980 Ti. Cranking up the fan speeds when overclocked does bring a higher noise commitment to the equation, but you get the benefit of significantly improved cooling. Ultimately, 57 °C is not a bad number as lower temperatures equal higher core clock speeds on the GTX 1070.

One of the key targets for NVIDIA over the past few generations has been to reduce the power consumption of its architecture, especially after taking a lot of heat (figurativley) on the Fermi launch for both the power and thermal results. With each successive generation, the power consumption curves keep getting better. Now serving up Pascal to the user base, NVIDIA has delivered solid gains in power efficiency. Looking at a direct comparison between the GTX 970 and GTX 1070, the power consumption reported with the GTX 1070 is the hands down winner. At stock speeds, the margin is just 18 watts under load. When overclocked, the GTX 1070 shows a massive 44 watt improvement over the GTX 970. Pretty impressive, to say the least.

...The best possible core clock speed/memory speed I was able to wring from this GPU was a solid 2050MHz to 2063MHz under load at the maximum reported temperatures. If I could keep the core temperature another 10 °C cooler, the card will run at 2126MHz all day long. Overclocking would not be used if it did not have an added benefit. With stock speeds on the GTX 1070 Founders Edition offering GTX Titan X performance for a fraction of the cost, you can do even better than Titan X performance in many games. Overclocking the GTX Titan X does even up the field, but it's amazing that for a potential AIB card price of $379, you cannot go wrong.

Launching June 10, the GTX 1070 Founders Edition will be available for $449. Much like the GTX 1080, the GTX 1070 has got style, runs cool and quiet, and is tough to beat at the current pricing.

Comments about noise are entirely meaningless without measurement due to the subjective and contextual nature of noise.

What is the purpose of a GPU backplate? Can it help protect the back of the card from corrosion?

It adds structural support to the GPU (makes it more rigid) to help prevent sag on longer, heavy cards. Also it aids in cooling to the back-side mounted ram chips.

Let's say some kind of liquid (water i.e.) is spilt on the entire card, would the backplate prevent corrosion in that case?

no.. it's not a water-proofing and has nothing to do with it. It would still short it out and most likely fry it and ruin it. Although I suppose if it's a *small* bit of water and it was a solid backplate like EK-Web sells, it might prevent water contact, if you caught it fast.

But these board partner ones made from aluminum with holes in em wouldn't do much to prevent water contact.
