**Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Thread**

when its 35% faster than a 1080 but you look at benchmarks and only see a 20fps increase (in 1440p) -.-

im sure if they said get 20fps more in XXX game buy the 1080ti.. not many would lol

if someone buys my 1080 ill buy one but not sweating ;-p.... someone buy my 1080 dammit! lol haha I don't feel crazy spending this much on a GPU but a phone etc I do.. but a phone does so much more -.-

yea so it seems at 1080p it's where the massive gains are. 1440p and those gains decrease some what. If im getting a 1080ti im not aiming at 1080p lol. I know some still want that 1080p 144hz experience but 1440p and keeping FPS above 75 is still pretty smooth.
 
Ive also notice it seems DX12 and 1080p is where 1080ti shines more. Seems they have made improvements in DX12 .
New drivers give this gain to all Pascal cards. New drivers give 33% boost in Rise of the Tomb Raider for example in dx12. So unless the review sites have rerun all their benchmarks in dx12 games then you can't compare fairly.

G
As a result, performance has increased by 33% in Rise of the Tomb Raider, 23% in Hitman, and by an average of 16% across the five most popular DirectX 12 titles.

Which is what I quoted and the got shot down!
i'm sorry i did not shoot you down. I thought my post was reasonable. Okay if you want to do reference vs reference and leave the cards as is with no OC then reference 1080Ti vs 980Ti on average is about 70% faster with odd games which seem to be DX12 or vulkan, it goes faster. But the 980Ti boosts to 1075 on reference lol. Compare to what the 1080Ti achieves boost wise its boosting a lot more. To me this seems silly. But i know what reviewers are doing they are comparing reference vs reference But i know even reference 980Ti cards can OC to atleast 1400 thats a good overclock over boost. Now reviewers seem to be only getting 150 extra out of the 1080Ti so not a whole load more. And if the 1080/70 is anything to go by then AIB cards don't overclock much better if hardly at all more than reference cards.

i'm just trying to keep a level head and not let numbers confuse me as owning a 980Ti that is stable at 1550Mhz i really doubt i'm going to see 70-80% extra performance on average am i?
 
Doesnt sli have its problems still though?
I have a 1080 under water and at 3440x1440 i need extra grunt, ashes of singularity and ghost recon wildlands for instance could use a boost in fps.
It's certainly not without it's problems but for games like Overwatch at 1440p 144Hz it does wonders and I honestly couldn't play without all that eye candy on now ^^;

overclock the 1080 Ti and you should get a constant 60% faster at least I'd of thought :)
 
Hold on don't take OC into consideration? Most 980Ti can do 1500 if not id be dammed if they can't do 1450. This is not the speeds reviewers have 980Ti at when benching. GPU Boost 3.0 automatically overclocks your card based on TDP and thermals so how the heck can't you take OC into consideration? Because Pascal cards are being OC for you and most can't OC them much more unless they are under water.



This review posted earlier has the 980Ti @ 1450Mhz vs the 1080Ti @ 2000Mhz. Results are only 4k but it gives percentages as to the jump in performance.

Which is what i said earlier but i was wrong apparently lol. This is me trying to keep a level head and actually see what sort of gains a 1080Ti would bring. Instead of expecting anywhere from double FPS to 70-80% extra performance to only be disappointed.
 
Those percentages don't look exact to me. Must be my maths. but working out 10% of the 980Ti performance then say the 1080Ti is 61% faster i get a lower number than multiplying that 10% 6 times and then working out the 1%.

edit must be my maths. If i use 1080Ti as the 100% baseline then work out 10% of that then 1% i get the same.

Seem ok to me mate. Take the results for The division as an example for both cards overclocked.

1080ti - 58.9
980ti - 33.7

58.9/33.7= 1.747

174% which is what the graph has it as. I also tried a few other games and it worked out.

Hover your mouse over the 980Ti overclocked results for the percentages to pop up, this is on the second graph.
