NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 3DMark Firestrike Benchmark Results Leaked - beats 980ti and Fury X

 

Quote

The first stock and overclocked performance results of NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card in 3DMark have leaked out by Videocardz. There are still a few weeks before the reviews go live but users are already demanding to see performance results of the upcoming graphics card. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 was launched on 6th May and would be released in the retail market on 27th May.

These performance results show that the GeForce GTX 1080 runs great on stock speeds but the card is built for extreme overclocking so let’s take a look at some overclocked performance numbers too

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Overclocked Beyond 2 GHz, Benched in 3DMark Firestrike

Quote

These overclocked performance numbers were obtained at 2 GHz. The 3DMark Firestrike Ultra score increased from 4998 points to 6232 points. On 3DMark Firestrike Extreme, the score jumped from 10367 points to 12911 points. Finally, in Firestrike Performance, the score jumped from 21828 points to a massive 26500 points. These increases were told to us as just preliminary results through overclocking which is easily achievable on Founders Edition cards (Air cooling). Expect overclockers to break massive numbers with this card at launch.

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 will be available to purchase on 27th May in reference and custom flavors. The GTX 1080 will have a MSRP of $599 US while NVIDIA will be selling their Founders Edition (Reference) card for $699 US which is a $100 US premium asking price. It will be really interesting to see how the GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 hold up in modern titles based on DirectX 12 and Vulkan API.

+ some youtube videos comparing the 1080 and 980ti... dunno if they are real or not

Damn this card looks beast. I wonder whats amds answers is going to be.

Water cooled binned 3GHz maybe?

[Nineshadow]

Damn that's a nice overclock.

According to Jay2Cents, nope. He said we are getting to the point where heat is not the limit anymore but other factors are, hence why Nvidia demo had it running at 67C.

If what people say is true and Pascal is just "fully unlocked maxwell", then heat is indeed the limiting factor.

Maxwell comes alive under cold temps, it scales so much better off cold temperatures versus just raw voltage. Raw voltage barely does anything for Maxwell on ambient temperatures, with super cold sub 20c load temps, it absolutely flies.

[Megazero]

... really? a 24% increase in performance when OC compare to no-OC @@?

If the graph is to be trusted the OCed one will have ~ 56% performance increase compare to Titan X, 63% compare to 980Ti, which is quite nice

I hope 1070 will be only around 10% less performance compare to 1080

[wolfsbane3083]

Looks like I might finally replace my aging 780s at last, if the bank account permits it anyway

[Tedol]

ok, rip my 650 $ 

[ManIkWeet]

Yes it performs better than all other cards currently available... Using older techniques (DirectX 11, OpenGL 4.5?). None of the results regarding DirectX12 or Vulkan are known yet, which is something that game developers are most certainly moving towards at some point.

 

Will this point be in the near feature? I doubt it for DX12, as people for whatever reason either really hate or really love W10, which is the only platform supporting DX12. Vulkan I can see launching straight away, as it has support for W7+, Linux, OSX and mobile devices.

[LAwLz]

Remember to not trust reviews until the NDA is over.

Super impressive numbers if they are true, but they might not be accurate at all.

According to Nvidia they have improved support for DX12 by including better support for async compute so we should see the gap be even bigger in games that use it.

its bs there are no drivers out yet.

I don't OC, I just told u what I heard Jay say right after I watched his tech talk. Go watch it and comment on YouTube if u want to keep arguing.

The few only 1080 cards out there right now is review sample, and I'm willing to bet there's driver CD or custom driver send to all the review sample holder.

I wasn't trying to argue, just wanted to comment on what you said. Sorry if I came off argumentative, I didn't mean to.  

 

For some reason people think if their GPU isn't at 80c that means their OC isn't limited by temperatures, but that's not how Maxwell works at all, it REALLY likes to be cold.

we had that in a discussion earlier. there are reviewers out there saying there are no drivers.

Well I told u what Jay2cents said and u denied it. That's arguing with someone who has more likely more knowledge and experience than you do and he already benched the card. Even though he is under NDA he probably tried OCing it.

 

That I consider arguing

 

I have no more to add to this topic so I'm done

[Prysin]

seems like clock to performance scaling is good. However i wish they would tell us how much more power it needs.

[Megazero]

Even if there's no dedicated driver there must be some default one that let those card work right (like the newest driver from Experience just support it hidden)? Else what's the point of sending the review sample out if no one can use it?

nice hwbot points kid, I don't see any.

Wheres Jay's LN2 and DICE subs?

 

Jay cant even clock a K|NGP|N on ambient without crying to Vince cause It doesn't scale with 999999 volts on air and blames the card.

U rite, Jayz2cents must have extensive experience with subzero overclocking, especially since he's made so many videos on it!

the drivers will probably be available shortly before the launch so everybody does benchmarks with new drivers. 

drivers can change a lot with performance so i understand that decision.

So what do they do with the card now? look at it? I highly doubt they would do something that stupid... maybe near release date they will have another updated driver too, but right now the card should still be runable so if they want to do some benchmark without optimized driver they should still be able to run it

thats exactly the point. they dont want benchmarks with old drivers out there!

I reacted to your talk about watercooling the card, not using stupid sub zero for daily use. Anyway, u want to argue so keep it up. Im out.

[captain cactus]

Not that impressive really. I mean, it's to be expected with a new gen card on a smaller fab with a whole lot more transistors, but I wonder what the perf difference would be when a 980Ti/TitanX and a 1080 are clocked the same. 5-10% maybe? This would mean the the IPC didn't really go up and the bulk of the performance increase comes from the sheer core clock speed bump.

 

Again, this is all speculation but it makes me all the more exited for Polaris with AMD seemingly going to the other route of improving the IPC massively rather than going with massive core clock speed bumps.

I don't think nVidia put in the actual Asynchronous Compute Engine hardware like AMD has been doing for a long time now.
