GALAX GeForce GTX 1070 Box Photo and Renders Surface

Published 2016-05-23 09:27 by Hilbert Hagedoorn

A new photo of the GALAX GeForce GTX 1070 Boxing surfaced on the web. That alongside some renders. The GP104 based graphics card doesn't reveal much on its boxing other then the product code.

You can also check out some renders of the GeForce GTX 1070 PCB from GALAX. This could very well be NVIDIA's reference PCB design of GTX 1070. It looks rather similar to GTX 1080 PCB and will be equipped with GDDR5 memory. The GeForce GTX 1070 goes on sale from June 10, 2016.

The GeForce GTX 1070 has the same GP104 GPU housed on it's PCB as the 1080, however it'll be cut-down GPU with stripped away segments, it has 1920 shader processors. This means it is has 15 out of the 20 SMs active (15 streaming multi-processors x 128 shader cores). The memory is clocked at 2000 MHz actual which is 8 GHz (GDDR5-effective) at a memory bandwidth of 256 GB/s. Single-precision floating point performance at 6.45 TFLOP/s. The card will start at 379 USD with the founders edition (reference card) costing 449 USD. Below an overview of the specifications:

A substantial difference with the 1080 is not the reduced GPU, this model will have your 'normal' GDDR5 memory and not GDDR5X. Check the leaked photos below:
