Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Thread

Hobib, because some people are petty, ranting for ages it was going to cost more so looking for any excuse to say "I told you so"

Fact is some will be slightly cheaper, some will be more expensive, like with every other card ever released. I imagine an evga hybrid being £100 to £200 more depending on what they can squeeze out of it.

People reached 2ghz on some, but then it sounded like an AMD cooler. The focus this time around is the improved cooling and noise levels..... Could all be bs, will have to wait for independent reviews.

Easy is right. They had a similar tech demo with the epic character model and almost the same crazy low temps during the 1080 reveal

You mean the few seconds of preliminary overclocks? So in a way yes, was thinking of another video that ran a few games with the overclock. Far more detailed this time around.

They claimed 35% better performance at default and at least 15% more with an overclock. So that would total at least 50% better performance if those claims are true. 50% would be heavy if true, we wait to find out.

what are you talking about ?
the 1080Ti is TitanXP with OC memory and about 70mhz base clock boost, what jen said was the Ti is 20% faster out of the box(TitanXP) with extra 15% with better OC headroom(which the titanXP does also)
basicaly what is he saying is that the TitanXP is 35% faster than 1080 with an overclock over 2Ghz, but half the price and called Ti.
you will see most reviews puting the Ti 2-3% better than TitanXP (~15-20% from 1080).

Wonder how good this beast will handle 4k gaming? I have been waiting for a single card solution, not bothering with mGPU again

Not bad in single card usage.

I am basing that on the fact that I often use a single Pascal Titan @2160p for gaming as I am too lazy to select SLI.

Have you watched the announcement video? He clearly states that the Ti is, at stock, straight out of the box, 35% faster than 1080. He then goes on to say that it has an additional 15%+ OC headroom. So you should really be asking what Jen is talking about...

The way it's meant to be renamed!

Even if it is incestuously related to the Titan the bottom line is its cheaper so as long as you didn't actually buy the Titan its all good.

I missed this today, how does the Ti compaired with the TXP?

Well here's the thing, I watched a video about the 1080ti's reveal yesterday and apparently Nvidia themselves claim that the 1080ti is faster than Titan XP. But only by about 5% or so. The 11GB says to me that Nvidia doesn't want to completely overshadow Titan XP, so it has 1GB more VRAM. As if that will matter...

Other thing to take note is custom AIB versions of the 1080ti which Titan XP didn't have. TXP was reference only and anyone wanting to get reasonable use from it, took off the cooler and added a waterblock to it. Watercooled TXPs might be able to hold their own against the AIB cards.

Regardless, here's hoping to good custom-cooled 1080tis at reasonable prices.
Heck... what am I saying, it's Nvidia. Of course it won't be reasonable lol.

OcUK will be selling at the price NVIDIA are! Not less, not more on FE cards!

£699.99 confirmed at OcUK. Poor easy...

Oh and for those who have OCD with the 11GB VRAM, just think, these go to 11!

The Nvidia cards are available for pre-order tomorrow at 4pm

May I ask your source for this information? Is this at OCUK?

Wasn't that a similar case with the 1080FE in the NV demo?

IIRC

They did indeed. And then it turned out FE cards couldn't do that.

Compared with a stock 1080................of course if you compare it to a 2Ghz 1080 the gap won't be 50%.

Cavallino · 2 Mar 2017 at 08:18

And compared to a 980TI? I estimate it should double?

Nah, a 980ti is around 1070 performance levels, so the 1080ti I'd put around 60% better than a 980ti.

You'd need to be off your head/mental to buy one of these IMO.

The next gen will be truly 4K. I'm sure the 1080ti will be good for 4K but it'll run out of grunt before the VRAM is needed.

Why this looks to be the sweet spot card for us that run 3440x1440 without having to buy a TXP and have no interest in going to 4k monitors?

I have no interest in gaming at 60hz, I don't understand why buying a very powerful GPU that will make 2560x1440 (144hz) / 3440x1440 (100hz) gaming extremely enjoyable is mental?

Take the ants out yer pants man, wait and save yourself hundreds of pounds when these inevitably die a short lifespan. You only need to look at the last 3 generations to see how much of a mug Nvidia make of enthusiasts.
