And at stock speeds...
your math is correct sir.
Which benchmark did you think he was talking about?.................................

Evidence of mid-range card snobbery again
. Oh, it cant be as good as my recent £600 card. It's like having middle class neighbours 'oh they got a new car but its not as good as ours' and try to find reasons why not. Apply same to property I'm just teasing and the benchmark is probably fake anyway

Notice that they did say the cards were all at stock in that benchmark, so i would take it with a heaping of salt. Since as everyone here knows the MAxwell cards the 1080 is being compared against gain a decent amount of performance when they clock beyond their default boost of 1200.
And how many people here keep their maxwell cards at stock?

Yes, the limitation applies to the 1070 and more than likely higher cards as well. The High bandwith sli connector is just a name for using both SLI connectors but in a dual setup. They did say they will be focusing on dual SLI with Pascal, stating the name as if they mean the entire generation of cards.

the assumption is that the 1080 will also overclock by a decent amount

Why complicate things. 100 divided by 76 gives 1.3157 so 32% faster than gtx980ti when rounded up.

1080 at £450 is my call and I expect it to be around 20% faster than the 980Ti. 8GB of GDDR5 (please not 256 bit and hopefully 512). Purely guess work but I have been close before
I wasn't far out

I have a question. Seeing that we are now finally reaching the evavated levels of performance that we all have been waiting for in a modestly priced single card. Is there going to/or is there a graph that indicates CPU v GFX Card type showing the highest card model that a CPU can run to prevent bottlenecking... Cos I am guessing the goal posts will change further with Pascal...
The thing is that they admit it was already boosting beyond max stated boost when they ran the benches, so not everything was stock.
Not sure how the guy who created the chart did it but I think the proper way to calculate the average difference is to add up all the values for each benchmark for each gpu and then do the division.
Example:
GTX 1080 = 74214
980ti = 56115
FuryX = 53509
GTX 970 = 37806
1080 vs 980ti
74214/56115 = 1.32 which is 32% difference.
1080 vs FuryX
74214/53509 = 1.387 which is 39% difference.
1080 vs 970
74214/37806 = 1.963 which is 96% difference.
To verify you can look at the individual benchmark results for the 1080 vs 970 and see that the 1080 is roughly 2x as fast.

These babies are gonna be £600 wit ha half-decent cooler
The non founders card is $599, which equates to £498 inclusive of VAT, so as long as you don't mind waiting a bit, you should be able to buy for under £500.... Depending on supply and demand costs of course.
I'm really looking forward to people actually getting these in their machines and testing them out. If the 1070 is truly faster than a titan X for ~£270 There won't be any holding me back. I will buy that. Sorry AMD but if thats the case I just can't wait.
Alas if it is over £300 and not as good as a TX then I can wait see what the red team offer.
Going to be a very exciting time in a few weeks.
