**Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Thread**

[bru]

Just because it's manufactured smaller, doesn't mean it's not a cut-down Titan XP It's the same fundamental design.

Do what!!!!

So on that basis, a Polaris 470 is no different to a 5 year old 7970 with its 2048:128:32 setup. I mean it the same fundamental design.

+1

I'm actually having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that people can't understand that the GP104 chip/die has nothing to do with GP100 which is a completely different chip/die.

 

[maonayze]

Strangely that fact didnt stop anyone jumping to a 980Ti on Maxwell, so why would it matter if the 1080Ti was a cut down TXP. It will still be faster than a 1080.

I dont get why having a cut down chip matters to you in this generation

I mean, you could get lucky and at some point you may be able to possibly unlock the other cores or something, who knows.

It's a way of stopping myself from spending unnecessary funds when I'm currently saving to move country

Ah, okay. An ulterior motive.

 

[Yaayuh!]

Same fundamental design yes as it's Pascal, Same chip/die ? No.

GP104 and GP100 i.e TXP are 2 separate dies, 1 isn't cut down from the other.

TXP is GP102. But correct on the GP104, it's not cut down from the TXP.

Yep, Had a brain fart on the numbering scheme

 

[Gabbatek]

Can someone please inform me when the ti is being release and i can get my hands on a cute ass hybrid

I was going to say should i just grab a 1080 but the ti is what im feeling from my 980ti sli heatfest

The current best guess is Q1 2017.

The 1080 isn't a cut down chip/die though, The GP104 chip is the full fat version of itself, Nothing cut, It has no SMX modules disabled or cut away.

I don't know how people aren't understanding this XD

GTX 1080 = Full fat GP104
GTX 1070 = Cut down GP104
Etc...

GP104 = cut down GP102
GP102 = cut down GP100

All you should care about is the performance, heat output (TDP), noise and cost of a GPU.

Dicehunter has got it right.

GP100
GP102
GP104

Are all different chips

GP100
GP102
GP104

All based on the same architecture, type 'pascal architecture' into google for more info.

All you should care about is the performance, heat output (TDP), noise and cost of a GPU, not whether or not some features are disabled. Just remember that even GP102 has disabled parts of the core

They are all different chips, you can not turn one into another by enabling or disabling features.

 

[Gabbatek]

The current best guess is Q1 2017.

Oh so literally not that long, so q1 will be reference titan and late q1 for the hybrids?

I cant quite remember how fast the brands push out their own.

I want the msi hybrid that runs a corsair cooler but hopefully one that actually works with link

 

[Doogles]

My guess is Vega hits then the 1080ti comes to hold position as fastest card.

 

[One Vision]

Wont be bothering until Volta as i have 2xTitan Maxwell cards which destroy annything i throw at them. On custom water to both cards at 1500mhz so no need to upgrade yet.

lol my 980ti boosts to just under 1500 and i'm on sli

It could be the other way around....no one really knows yet.

If you take a 5960x and disable 4 cores would that make it the same as a 4770k

 

[crinkleshoes]

Not quite, as the 5960x has a lower boost clock and more cache... disabling cores doesn't disable the associated cache.

Otherwise, they'd be practically the same.
