NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition Review @ Neoseeker

news · May 17, 2016

<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Good morning editors!<br><br>Today we review

the "Founder's Edition" of the soon-to-be-released NVIDIA

GeForce 1080 graphics card, featuring the new G104 GPU based on the 16nm

FinFET Pascal architecture with 160 TMUs and 64 ROPs. It's a fancy name

for a reference board, but what a board it is.<br><br>The card also

features a 1607/1733 MHz core/boost clock and 8192MB of GDDR5X RAM with a

320 GB/s memory bandwidth and a 1250 MHz (10 GHz effective) clock that all

promises to add up to double the performance of the GeForce Titan X

series.<br><br>Basically the card has what NVIDIA dubs the

"world's most advanced GPU". Naturally it hungers for nothing

less than 4K gaming, not to mention offering nearly triple the performance

for the shiny new virtual reality technology that's finally making its

way to consumers. It's also optimized to make the most of multi-display

setups and even curved screens.<br><br><a

1080 made to the rigorous standards of NVIDIA for users that want the

"reference" look, and it will always be available for purchase

even towards the product's end of life cycle. The price premium is

probably in place to avoid any conflicts between the Founders Edition cards

and products offered by NVIDIA's board partners down the

road."<br></blockquote><br></div>Thanks as always for any
