Geforce Pascal Review thread

I am still looking at these numbers with GTX 980Ti vs GTX 1080, and I'm pretty impressed with how a custom GTX 980Ti with some decent Pre-OC actually holds up against GTX 1080.
The reference GTX 980Ti is about 28% slower in 2560x1440 but a MSI GTX 980Ti Gaming 6G is just 9% slower than the GTX 1080 in 2560x1440.

And with overclocking the GTX 980Ti you almost get 1080 performance !

MSI Gaming could probably be pushed harder too, making it more like 4-5% :cool:

Mine is a pretty low asic msi 6g, (66% iirc) but will easily hit 1480mhz core. You do need the fan ramped up at 80% or so as it will throttle at 63c if fan speed is lower. No big issue though as you barely hear it at 80% speed.
 
Well If GTX 1080 max support 2 way SLi, then I won't touch my 3x GTX 980Ti reference cards which all already are running at around 1450Mhz boost clock :)

However I might throw a GTX 1080 custom card into the wifes machine when they arrive!

Whooppee woo Gripen, the OVERCLOCKED 980 Ti is nearly as fast as a not even on the market yet 1080 at stock, and probably not yet optimised. Don't minimums stay the same when overclocking however, so an overclocked card may not even be as smooth actually playing games (forget benchmarks) as a non-overclocked card :D. What I mean is, a 980 Ti overclocked to exactly 1080 performance will still mean it's not as good when it comes to game smoothness.
Lets not forget the underlying thing either - the 1080 is all new tech :)

You know you want one, sell up buy, be true to yourself.


he he he he.

You'l probably get WAY smoother FPS if you took out 1 of those TI's. You are literally paying to have a worse experience. :confused:

Hehe no with only official 2 way SLi support I'm skipping 1080 and waiting for 1080Ti at least - I won't go with lower performance than what my 3x980ti's gives me.

Nope I have a smooth ride, and I have nice FPS boost going from 2 to 3 way SLi.
I have been running 3 way SLi permantly since 2009 (3xGTX 280/470/580/670/780/970 now 980Ti). I have seen this video and I can't recognize those issues at all. I love running 3 card :p
Only 2 times in all the years I've had issues running 3 cards.
 
Bakes0310 well had a look and in 3DMark FireStrike... 1080 scores almost 200% of Black.. 10200 vs 19300 Out of quick look.

So basically You could see 1 card running at least as much power as them two you got. ALL THE TIME no ****ing about with no SLI. I call that a great upgrade and yopu can sell them titans still

quick look on ebay
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ZOTAC-NVI...358505?hash=item1a139011a9:g:uRYAAOSwInxXNtaP
and yopu copuld actually sell both to cover price of one 1080 so would be a free upgrade.

btw. Hope ebay is not Competition link ??



And when AMD starts selling Vega card and its somehow faster than 1080. Dont worry week after we will have 1080ti on market.

im surprised
do you play games or just run benchmarks?
maybe you do play games but only the ones that have great sli support i duno.....walks away shrugging
