NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 PCB, GP104 Die and GDDR5X Pictured In Detail - Features 5+1 Phase VRM Supply, HB SLI Bridge Detailed

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 has once again been shot in pictures but this time we get a closer look at what's beneath its hood. Announced last week and launching on 27th May, the GeForce GTX 1080 will exist the high-finish solution designed for gamers who want the best performance in AAA titles at college resolutions. NVIDIA is also focusing towards VR gaming with their new products with several software technologies to boost performance.

The GP104-400-A1 core powers the GeForce GTX 1080 while the GP104-200-A1 cadre powers the GTX 1070.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Dissected - PCB, Core and Memory Pictured in Detail

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 specifications have already been covered in detail over hither. Just for those who missed them, we volition provide a quick recap. The GeForce GTX 1080 features the 16nm FinFET based GP104 fleck that houses 7.2 Billion transistors.

This scrap will exist replacing the GM204 with much superior functioning and efficiency. NVIDIA has configured this chip with 2560 CUDA Cores and Micron's latest GDDR5X memory. Micron has just reported that their GDDR5X memory is nether full product and the GeForce GTX 1080 is actually the showtime retail card to characteristic the new memory standard. We covered the benchmarks of the GeForce GTX 1080 in DirectX 12 that showed some nice gains.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 - The Worlds First Graphics Bill of fare To Characteristic GDDR5X Retention:

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 is the first graphics card to feature GDDR5X memory!

I showtime talked nigh Micron's GDDR5X in September 2022 and in February of this year, provided an update that the engineering science was on track for mass production by summer.  Today, I am happy to denote that GDDR5X, the fastest discrete memory component in the earth, has already entered mass production.  With gaming and virtual reality driving  continuous increases in operation requirements for GPUs, it's a disquisitional fourth dimension to deliver college memory bandwidth and efficiency, and GDDR5X is well positioned to help bulldoze these new efficiencies.

Specially exciting is the GTX1080, the nearly advanced gaming card ever created and the first card in the world to use Micron's GDDR5X memory.  This card pumps out nine TFLOPS with 2560 cores offering an unprecedented level of graphics performance and efficiency.  Using a 256-bit memory bus, the 1080 packs 8GB of quad data rate GDDR5X at 10Gb/s cranking out 320GB/s of memory bandwidth. via Micron

The GeForce GTX 1080 when dissected (via Videocardz) reveals a PCB that houses a 5+i stage PWM design. It is powered by a single viii-Pin connector and we tin note that this PCB is  much cleaner compared to the older PCBs used on the GeForce GTX 980 and GeForce GTX 980 Ti graphics card.  The PCB comes with a decent set of components since the lath can achieve high clock speeds upwards to 2.1 GHz and possibly fifty-fifty higher. The GTX 1080 will be a powerhouse compared to the GeForce GTX 980 and GTX 980 Ti and will be available in both reference and not-reference flavors when its launches on 27th May.

Nosotros tin also annotation that the GDDR5X and GPU used on the GeForce GTX 1080 are the same revision which were leaked concluding calendar month. The latest pictures confirm our reports. Several AIB based models take also been pictured over here and here.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Uses Both SLI Connectors To Double The Available Bandwidth

NVIDIA has also introduced a new applied science on their Pascal cards (GTX 1080 and GTX 1070) known as the HB SLI (High Bandwidth Calibration Link Interface). Compared to regular SLI, the HB SLI solution provides twice the band width by utilizing both SLI connectors on the GeForce Pascal boards to provide a seamless experience when you lot run a multi-GPU setup.

First pictures of the NVIDIA HB SLI bridge that will be used to offering double the bandwidth in thousand-GPU configs.

NVIDIA's new SLI HB bridge doubles the available transfer bandwidth compared to the NVIDIA Maxwell^™ compages. Delivering silky-shine gameplay, it's the best way to experience environs gaming—and it'south only uniform with the GeForce GTX 1080. via NVIDIA

The new HB SLI bridges will be bachelor by NVIDIA and their retail partners only it should be mentioned that these bridges would near probable restrict users to but 2-Fashion SLI configurations. The GeForce GTX 1080 won't back up the older SLI bridges so 3 or 4 manner configurations are off the table.

A single GeForce GTX 1080 is said to offer performance faster than dual 980s.

Recently, many game developers have stopped offering multi-GPU support inside their game engines. There are only a minor list of game engines that back up multi-gpu functionality otherwise the support is either broken (poor scaling) or in that location's no support at all. Hopefully, this might change with the emergence of more DirectX 12 API based engines.

We also got report from our friends that the GeForce GTX 1080 is able to hit pretty high boost clocks. It can practise upwards to ii.0 - ii.1 GHz boost clocks with very low temperatures as can be seen in the MSI afterburner console below (We had to readjust the motion-picture show so that it can align on the website correctly).
