Almost identical to the desktop version, at (nearly) half the TDP.
A little birdie told us that Nvidia is giving its Volta the 16nm FinFET treatment. This product uses stacked DRAM too so it looks like the whole thing will be pretty bleeding edge.
Our same deep throat told us that the performance per watt is expected to increase tremendously. Although this might be vague, little is known about Volta other than it is arriving after Pascal so any information we get is news. The earliest we expect Volta is 2017.
GPU-Z says 106 TMUs.
If you understand what preemption is then you know it makes no sense to say it's used to run concurrent tasks.
Let me tell you how concurrent tasks run on Pascal. It's really easy. You see, some SMs are idle and the HW scheduler decides to schedule some independent compute (or graphics) work on them.
Done. It wasn't that hard If you cast away all the unfounded statements we heard from AMD less technically savvy supporters you see there is really no mystery.
Now we just need to repeat this for three or four months and with a bit of luck the message will percolate. No wait, who am I kidding
From what I gather it's down to granularity. AMD can do it per shader.
Nvidia on the other hand used to be able to split different kinds of calculations between different gpc's, effectively lopping off a large portion of rendering power in order to allocate it to compute calculations.
With Pascal different types of calculations can be allocated to each SMM cluster within each GPC group, and the amount of shaders within each cluster has been halved compared to Maxwell allowing for finer granularity.

Thanks @Deders for a genuine explanation . But, isn't Pascal can do it per shader now too (Maxwell was GPC only, Pascal per SM inside GPC) What's confused me is some said it's a clever hack (Pre-emtion, NV driver) so... yeah. Confused.

Same core count as desktops, at lower clockspeeds.
Is Nvidia launching first in mobile? I don't follow that sector as much (only buy a laptop during my December vacations which I then promptly give to my nephews since I have little use for them.)
If true, WTH were people saying about NV being so far behind?
http://venturebeat.com/2016/01/15/a...o-full-graphics-immersion-with-16k-screens/2/We believe we’re several months ahead of this transition, especially for the notebook and the mainstream market. The competition is talking about chips for cars and stuff, but not the mainstream market.
First rumour about Volta.
Nvidia Volta gets 16nm FinFET treatment
www.fudzilla.com/news/graphics/41122-nvidia-volta-is-16nm-finfet
Fuad says it's a 16nm part with stacked DRAM, 'tremendous perf/watt increase'. Considering all Pascal GPUs were taped-out as of mid-2016, the first Volta GPU(s) could arrive in 2017, while the competition might still be catching up with GP104/GP102.
And it's wrong. GP106 is 80 TMUs.
So where are all the GTX-1060 "full reviews" based on review samples sent to all these different hardware sites to do reviews for us?
The NDA's been lifted for 11 days (12 if you count today) and the retail versions are going to the stores here in a couple days and I can't find solid, objective reviews on the things yet. :|
The NDA lifts at 9AM EST today...

DigiTimes says they might reduce prices to make them more competitive.
