Nvidia GTX 1080Ti Specifications leak

[Kaapstad]

While it does seem like a strange decision on paper GDDR5 does make sense for the GTX 1080Ti.

Traditionally the Titan series GPUs have 2x the memory capacity of the GTX Ti variant, this time will be different so Nvidia needed to come up with another advantage.

With GDDR5 memory the GTX 1080Ti will have less bandwidth than the Titan X Pascal but still have plenty more than the GTX 1080. It makes sense when you consider it as a product between the 1080 and the Titan X Pascal.

The final memory bandwidth is important, not the memory that is used to achieve it.

Where is the link to this leak ?

The slide in the OP has a few things on it that make it look like a doctored 1070/80 spec slide.

And why is the slide quality so bad ? One problem when coping these slides to edit is you really need a 2160p monitor and then you have to turn the image on it's side to capture it with all the quality intact.

there is a much larger difference in core count between the 1080 and 1070 though.

But surely running GDDR5 instead of 5X it will be slower where it matters? High res etc?

I dunno man I could be wrong but I just can't see them nerfing themselves again.

Definitely a fake

The slide in the OP is what appears on the NVidia website after a launch yet the OP also says that they are not sure when the card will launch.

What would happen if the specs changed between now and launch time, it could be most unfortunate and the GTX 970 springs to mind here.

I made this in about 3 minutes. You'd never know it was fake because I just used the Inspect Element to replace the text in the code and have the browser generate it exactly as the regular site would. Whoever faked the original version did it the hard way.

Fake!! Look at the spec sheet closely. The core count says 3328, but the 28 is a few pixels lower.

 

[realneil]

If this is true, it's what I've been waiting for.

Doesn't work for me...

 

[AlienALX]

It's fake, Guru3D have confirmed it to be fake.

I would go back to waiting

I was really hoping this wasn't fake oh well back to the drawing board

Also why does everyone assume NVIDIA will WAIT for AMD to release their Vega specs before throwing out the 1080 ti to the market? It's not like they can go from a design change to distribution in 1 or 2 months. If the Ti is planned, they have all the manufacturing pipeline/design/testing probably nearly complete, and will roll it out as soon as they see Titan sales fall off or whenever they're ready. That will not only still compete with AMD, but will beat them by months absorbing thousands more would be AMD clients. There is NO BENEFIT to waiting till the last week to release a card you already can ship out the door other than not competing with your own product.

It makes sense. Every time Nvidia release a TI card they usually make Titan and its owners look a little silly. I would hazard a guess and say that all Titan sales pretty much dry up as soon as they release the TI which is kinda stupid.

So, I surmise that this time they are going to do with the TI - Titan XP as they did with the 1070-1080. IE - make sure that whatever you do you can not match the higher card's performance with the cheaper one. That way they will still continue to sell XPs and sell the failed ones (1080ti) whilst still binning.

Block up the XP and the 1080ti won't get close.
