GTX 980 has 2048 CUDA cores, not 1920

[Real_PhillBert]

I will be buying a 980, you can wait for the next big thing until you die in this market. Gotta bite sometime.

[LukaP]

dont care for rumours until they are confirmed. keep spinning dat rumour mill

[Ryan Leech]

I only have 480

 

And that shit is still hot, how does your triple card system survive?

Oh yeah it's like having three hair driers in the rear of my system

[Electrostatik]

Any chance this thing (whatever it ends up being) WON'T outperform the 780ti?

I am willing to speculate that it will slightly outperform the 780ti, but no one really knows, well, no one can really say publicly.

[TheGosuStandard]

Time to save & replace my 560ti.... no job dangit

[TheProfosist]

Are you saying the Gigabyte GTX 780(Ti) GHz Edition? :3 Fail backplate.

I believe the mars had one too.

[TheProfosist]

As long as the 980 meets or beats the 780 Ti I ill be buying two as soon as the high end aftermarket ones are available.

So lets look at some numbers... (Amount of CUDA cores)

 

GTX 650ti BOOST         768

GTX 770                      1536

GTX 780                      2304

GTX 780ti                    2880

 

GTX 750ti                      640

GTX 980                      2048    (rumored, I guess?)

 

Considering the 750ti does a lot with what it has, I guess you could expect the 980 to do the same, so is it just going to perform the same as the 780? Is it pretty much going to be a 780 with better power consumption, perhaps better overclockability?

 

Pretty boring considering the amount of hype it's had if you ask me.

 

I know it's not that easy to guage performance based on the amount of CUDA cores alone, but clock speeds and the like won't make that much of a difference, will they?

 

Edit: Threw the 650ti BOOST in there since it has a similar amount of CUDA cores as the 750ti. After having a quick squizz at some reviews, it looks like the 650ti BOOST and the 750ti trade blows despite that CUDA core difference. So if they perform the same, based off some quick, rough maths, should Maxwell perform 16.67% better with the same amount of CUDA cores or have I done something wrong?

[LePawel]

There's a GT640 difference between 970 and 980.

2048 maxwell cores is still a lot more then performance then a titan non black.

[akron]

GeForce GTX 980 has 16 Streaming Multiprocessors Maxwell (SMM), which give us 2048 CUDA cores in total. For comparison, GTX 970 has only 13 SMMs (1664 CUDAs), so there’s a 384 CUDA difference between these two cards.

GeForce GTX 980 is advertised as GK104 replacement, it is much more power efficient and much more powerful than first Kepler processor.

We will cover 2nd Generation Maxwell in detail very soon. Maxwell GM204 has some very neat features for gamers.

This post was only meant to confirm there are 2048 CUDAs in 980, hence not the most detailed table below.

Stay tunned.

Also, it will feature 3 displayport connectors:

Hopefully it will be good

Any idea on how much it's going to cost?

likely the same as usual

A Titan with 2688 CUDA cores? Yeah, I don't know about that, mate.

[flibberdipper]

More rumors I don't care about. Seriously people. Unless Nvidia actually posted it on their site, don't post it in the news subforum since it isn't news.

[Deletive]

2048 x 0.35 = 716.8 + 2048 = ~2,764 kepler core performance.

[patrickjp93]

I Still don't believe it... I'm going to be really pissy till I see final specs.

Forcing AMD to go second and reveal their hand. If the 390 and X are strong competition, BOOM: 3200-core 980Ti.

Classic Nvidia.

Well AMD would need 20nm to make anything better then what they have.

[patrickjp93]

This is why I'm going to wait. I want to see if their is locked parts of the chip.

I wonder if they'll have a GM/GK 210 or a kepler replacement.

MARK MY WORDS

THERE WILL BE A TITAN X.

It's already called Prometheus.

[patrickjp93]

And Nvidia knows that, just as I know that. The 4096-core Hawaii WCCF is sounding good about now

Where can I learn more?

[patrickjp93]

Where can I learn more?

Somewhere on this forum. I saw it early last week.

[GloriousPain]

 If there is 2560 cores on the die and only releases 2048, nvidia would have pulled a HUGE DICK MOVE ON THEIR PART.

Just leaves room for a "Maxwell" Titan just be glad it has 2048 instead of 1920 (assuming this is accurate at all) and it's even supposed to be a GK107 replacement I believe sounds like they're gonna repeat the 680 as a lowball followed by le titan

[SMURG]

No more DVI? Sacrilege!

If they want to ditch anything they should be ditching HDMI.

Titan's would be 3200 cuda cores.
