Plus it might use all its memory at full speed

They couldn't could they

People need to take a step back and wait for the proper reviews.

So far all we have had is the edited highlights censored by NVidia, what are it's weak points as no card is perfect.

Temps look like one, The Nvidia site say's 94 degrees so I imagine any cooler will have it's work cut out for it and the reference cooler could be quite noisy to control that..

They couldn't could they

The Internet would implode it it happened again

Official numbers released:

So around 10% less transistors than the GM200 and a 10% higher TDP than a GTX980.

the founders edition sounds like a marketing term for `only available through us` type card

if you want it early with the stock cooler...
comes with vomit bag and instructions on how to take the ugly thing off

 

[CAT-THE-FIFTH]

If Anandtech is correct that the GTX1080 is 25% faster than a GTX980TI,it would be similar speed to the GTX980TI Matrix:

[The Asgard]

Agreed. But I think I may still wait for the ti version.

In the end that's probably what I will end up doing, waited this long. Saying that there could be some good deals on the MM.

 

[JediFragger]

Maybe the 'Founders Edition' are shape-changing cards!????

/waits for Odo+1080 Memes to hit the Internet.....

According to AT,only the Founders Edition cards will be available on 27th May and June 10th,so that is $479 and $599 if you want to be first in line. So £331 without VAT(around £400) and £485 without VAT(around £581).

with shipping ontop and import charges (and VAT) as well as they are from the USA

Not enough of a DS9 nerd

that's fine I'm not buying until I buy the cpu in this case broadwell-e

Eh? That's the max temp I think, aren't all cards rated around that?
During the presenation demo, albeit short one, a 1080 was showing a temp of 67 C while running at 2113Mhz and mentioned it was "cool running". Assuming of course a reference cooler with a std fan profile that the cards would have.
No idea if the FE cards have a refernce shroud and fan, or something else, but assuming will be refernce

 

[Jono8]

Sweet. Will probably get a 1080 to replace my 980 if it is indeed 980 sli performance. Only 180w tdp as well.

From the dollar prices I'm guessing we are looking at around £500 for the 1080 and £320 for the 1070?

lol at all the people saying:

"You wont get 980ti performance for ~£300"

"The 1080 won't be faster than the 980Ti"

"Don't be stupid, no cards will have gddr5x until at least August/September"

That is sounding a hair's breadth away from a paper launch. People better make sure their F5 key is up to the task!

 

[arc@css]

I don't like the look of the reference cooler at all. Worst I've seen from the green team in yonks. Performance looks to be rather good, which is the most important thing.

 

[Jono8]

I am going to wait for reviews, we don't know what changes have been made with regards DX12 and efficiency etc. Plus it might use all its memory at full speed

NVidia have said "New asynchronous compute advances improve efficiency and gaming performance "
