    [News] NVIDIA Cuts Price of its GeForce GTX 1080 Graphics Card: $499

    https://www.techpowerup.com/231114/n...s-card-usd-499

    In the wake of its GeForce GTX 1080 Ti enthusiast-segment graphics card launch, NVIDIA lowered the pricing of its other GeForce "Pascal" series graphics cards, beginning with a price-cut of the GeForce GTX 1080 down to USD $499, down from its launch price of $599 (custom-design baseline pricing). The GTX 1070 is unflinched for now, from its $349 baseline pricing. This launch should turn up the heat on AMD, with its Radeon RX Vega pricing, much in the same way the GTX 980 Ti steered pricing of the Radeon R9 Fury X.

    [News] NVIDIA Announces the GTX 1080 Ti @ 699$ [Update: 1080 @ 499 , 1070 @ 349$]

    https://www.techpowerup.com/231115/n...-graphics-card

    NVIDIA today unveiled the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card, its second-fastest graphics card based on the "Pascal" GPU architecture, and which is positioned to be more affordable than the flagship TITAN X Pascal. Based on the same "GP102" silicon as the TITAN X Pascal, the GTX 1080 Ti is slightly cut-down. While it features the same 3,584 CUDA cores as the TITAN X Pascal, the memory amount is now lower, at 11 GB, over a slightly narrower 352-bit with GDDR5X memory interface. This translates to 11 memory chips on the card. On the bright side, NVIDIA is using newer memory chips than the one it deployed on the TITAN X Pascal, which run at 11 GHz (GDDR5X-effective), so the memory bandwidth is 484 GB/s.

    Besides the narrower 352-bit memory bus, the ROP count is lowered to 88 (from 96 on the TITAN X Pascal), while the TMU count is unchanged from 224. The GPU core is clocked at a boost frequency of up to 1.60 GHz, with the ability to overclock beyond the 2.00 GHz mark. It gets better: the GTX 1080 Ti features certain memory advancements not found on other "Pascal" based graphics cards, beginning with a newer memory chip that's optimized for 11 Gbps; and the new Tiled Rendering technology. This is a feature NVIDIA has been hiding from its consumers since the GeForce "Maxwell" architecture, but has been activated on the GTX 1080 Ti, and will soon roll out on other "Pascal" and "Maxwell" GPUs through driver updates.

    I guess Nvidia could not reprice it at $399 without repricing gtx 1070 lower, so it means, there is and will be nothing to rival gtx 1070 at that price line. Hello AMD, where is rx 580?

    Hmmmm...that first image/chart with the 1080Ti lasting through 2018...

    I wonder if nvidia is implying no new GPU's (pascal refresh/volta) until 2018....

    It could be, there is no way to 10mn this year and I doubt next year before Q4, welcome to 2012 ~ 2017, forever 28nm, GeForce GTX 680, March 22 2012, GK104, 28nm ~ GeForce GTX 1080, May 27 2016, GP104, 16nm. 28nm was probably the longest used, 5 years, lets hope, it wont happen again.

    they could be waiting for VEGA before they show pascal refresh or volta...
    but 1080 @ 499$, AMD better bring it on...

    NVIDIA Cuts Price of the GeForce GTX 1070 Down to $349
    Alongside the much awaited price cut for the GeForce GTX 1080, down to USD $499, in the wake of the company's GTX 1080 Ti launch, NVIDIA cut the price of its smaller, purportedly better selling sibling, the GeForce GTX 1070, down to $349. This is the new base-line pricing for non-reference cards, and one can expect custom-design cards to start within ?$20 of this base-line. The reference-design GeForce GTX 1070 Founders Edition card will now sell for $399.

    Help me out, I can't remember.....Did nvidia overclock the tits off the 980ti and 780ti at the presentation and then use the overclock as the metric for performance increase as well?

    35% performance increase at 2+ghz oc on core. <-Thats what I came away with.

    they also did not underclock the 780 or 980 or have boost like it is now. the 104 parts are made to run at 2ghz so this seems more like marketing.

    i really hate how my old card died a couple weeks ago. i would have been all over this.

    At least the specs are somewhat nice, 11GB is ok, instead of 10GB which I thought was a bit odd according to previous rumours.
