>>54566085
That has to be one of the strangest and most useless graphs I have ever seen.

Using 11-28% less bandwidth than the previous card really does not mean much of anything if bandwidth was not an issue in the first place.

One only creates graphs like this if they are desperate to show an improvement over the previous generation.

If the leaked AotS benchmarks are legit, then even a basic Fury isn't far behind a 1080 to where it's considered a massive goddamn upgrade

http://wccftech.com/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1080-dx12-benchmarks/

This also assumes DX12 (and Vulkan to a lesser extent) get widespread adoption to where this matters, because I can't imagine words like "Windows 10 only" and "OpenGL successor" are positive phrases to publishers, who have only just started making DX11 mandatory for the last couple years

>>
>>54570315
Let's face it, systems running gm204/200 doesn't need hevc acceleration. Those in the extreme niche who need it would do fine with a 960.

Don't even know why you guys are making a big fuss about it. It's a standard "next gen" feature. The upcoming snapdragon 820 smartphone processor will have high profile hevc decode and encoding.

Pretty much all flagships are already using the 820

are you retarded? they always provide ASICs for encoding and decoding together. GM204 and GM200 both have ASICs for encoding and decoding HEVC.

i'm using a core 2 duo laptop from 2008 and have no problems watching 720p and 1080p hevc video, it's not taxing at all for any semi-modern CPU.

Hardware decoder is DIFFERENT from NVENC encoder

http://www.anandtech.com/show/8526/nvidia-geforce-gtx-980-review/5

>Finally, and somewhat paradoxically, Maxwell 2 inherits Kepler and Maxwell 1’s hybrid HEVC decode support. First introduced with Maxwell 1 and backported to Kepler, NVIDIA’s hybrid HEVC decode support enables HEVC decoding on these parts by using a combination of software (shader) and hardware decoding, leveraging the reusable portions of the H.264 decode block to offload to fixed function hardware what elements it can, and processing the rest in software.
>>
>>54570437

probably this time next year
>>
So what is the verdict? I have a GTX 770 right now, is the 1080 a valid upgrade?

I've read people say it's a glorified 980ti.

But I don't follow this scene too closely.

Also I'm still rocking a Core i7 920 @ 3.2. Am I going to be bottlenecked?
>>
>>54570386
>>54570427
Gm200/gm204 supports hevc main profile encode/decode. Only the the gm206 supports hevc high profile. To put it in stupid terms, the titan x/980 ti(gm200) and 980/970(gm204) fully supports 8 bit h265.

It seems you are both partially right and partially wrong.

>The seventh generation of PureVideo HD, introduced with the Geforce GTX 960 and also included in GTX 950 and GTX 750 SE, a second generation Maxwell (microarchitecture) GPU (GM206), adds full hardware-decode of HEVC Version 1 (Main and Main 10 profiles) to the GPU's video-engine. Feature Set F hardware decoder also supports full fixed function VP9 hardware decoding.

Yeah but so far there hasn't been a compelling reason to upgrade. Until my CPU starts to be a limiting factor in gaming, which so far it hasn't, I don't see the reason to upgrade yet. I've thought about it multiple times. The only downside is that it runs hot.

Obviously.

I think Polaris might be a better way. We should be getting a 390x with half the power consumption for less than $300.
>>
>>54570590
I was trying to do the math whether 1080Ti will be single card 4K 60fps. I figured it will need to be 100% more powerful than the 980 Ti to do that. 1080 is looking like it might be 50% better than 980Ti at the very best so will the 1080 Ti be 50% better than the 1080? How much better than the 980 is the 980 Ti? ~50%?

problem is, I think it's Gimped, less CUDA and less Transistors are preparation for far superior Ti version in half a year.
>>
>>54570642
I don't think the 1080 Ti can do it. If you want 4K your best bet is to get two cards now. Wait to see how well the 1070 overclocks and ideally you can get a away with two of those. That's what I'm planning for right now. If the 1070 doesn't do much better than 980 Ti then you'll have to get two 1080s which won't be cheap but at least you'll be set until 4K 120 Hz or 5K or whatever your next monitor will be.
>>
>>54570714

gp100 only has 1000 more cores than the 1080, unless nvidia releases a different 600mm2 die with the fp64 support cut out again then it's probably not going to be much better than ~25% over the 1080.

>>54570809
Not the same poster but if you are gaming on a 60hz TV I don't think the problem is your video card.
>>
>>54570825

per core performance was reduced in pascal, so 'only' 1000 cores isn't going to be as impactful as it was with the 980 and 980ti.

nvidia needs to tack on 1500-2000 more cores with the 1080ti if they want it to fly off the shelves.

And every new release you want to play for the next 3 years

I'm basing my gpu needs on those games as well, but I'm not retarded; games that I'll want to play, albeit a few only, will come out and demand ridiculous horsepower to get 60fps at resolutions I'm used to like 1440p

I won't buy a new card until I can get the performance that I desire plus a little headroom. Buying a card that can play gta v and Witcher at 60fps 1440p at 60 fps means jack shit because it means you're dumping money into a card that's essentially DOA; anything more taxing won't do

You are always cpu limited in some fashion at 1080p. It is why you see AMD cards gain performance (relative to Nvidia) as resolution increases - the driver cpu overhead stops being so limiting because the cards are being saturated.

Its why at 4k these days a fury x is faster than a titan x.
>>
>>54574287
Bretty cool

Explain this to me in production cost terms.
Why do they lower the bus? Isn't it the same freaking bus they make for the last 5 years?
Why AMD always has a bit wider bus on same class GPUs? Is it marketing bullshit to sell more Tis?
>>
>>54575270
Money, little things like that is how companies make profit, wider bus need bigger memory controllers which require more die space and power.

Also because AMD fucking sucks even with their xbox HUEG memory bus they can barely keep up, so there is no reason for Nvidia to use a wider bus despite the fact that their cards would get HUGE performance boost with more bigger bandwidth.

So if I had a choice between 970 or 290x the drivers for the 290x would only get better over time, right?

>>54585648
g-sync causes input lag. input lag in VR is shitty, it needs to be instantaneous but running with an unlocked framerate, even though it eliminates input lag, it can feel choppy due to the fluctuating framerate. this new fast sync is like vsync but with the response time cut in half, which is in theory a very nice piece of tech.
>>

970 performance is going to fall off a cliff when the 1070 launches

An R9 270 will be able to beat it

Yeah, 290x trumps it in almost everywhere except goyimworks and it will be supported for much longer

wait, buying 970/390 is a waste unless you can get them super cheap.

at my place, people are now selling their 980ti at 980 price.

>>54585780
>if I had a choice between 970 or 290x the drivers for the 290x would only get better

it looks like AMD is sticking with GCN for at least Polaris and probably Vega, if not also Navi, so 290X/Hawaii will at least benefit from driver optimizations made for new games for the next few years.

Maxwell is gonna get driver optimization priority dropped like a hot potato any month now, but do realize that the 290X will still have its downsides like lower power efficiency, no HDMI2/DP1.3, etc. relative to the 970.

Getting a 460 or a 1060 or whatever might not be the worst thing even with the price premium, given that they will be >2x more power efficient than last gen stuff.

The game should have supported Vulkan at launch but Nvidia wanted to look better than AMD in benchmarks and Vulkan doesn't look to good on Maxwell cards so they delayed the Vulkan version until the Pascal release.

Holy shit you just prove that most of it is software dependent and old CPUs dont bottleneck in most of the situations at all compared to newer, lower tier CPUs.

So how about you rethink your statement and kill yourself?

3770k @ 4.5Ghz here, the day I update my CPU is the day we hit year 2k30.
