Rumor: GeForce GTX 1070 Ti to get locked 1607/1683 MHz base/boost clock

So, there's a new rumor coming from your regular websites. NVIDIA is launching its new GTX 1070 Ti graphics card, the rumor now is that it cannot be overclocked and that all cards will get a 1607/1683 MHz base/boost clock frequency.



This rumor as such is rather hard to believe. We do think that you'll only see AIB cards as Nvidia will likely not make any reference (Founders) cards. So the rumor, and again, .. rumor .. is that the clock frequency cannot be changed by board partners (factory tweaks) by the AIB partners, e.g. all cards would be clocked the same 1607/1683 MHz base boost clock. If this rumor is true, it might be in place to prevent the 1070 Ti to surpass GTX 1080 performance. 

Expreview (Google translation):

Xiao Bian get exclusive news, NVIDIA will be fully unified market GTX 1070 Ti frequency, that is, regardless of which you buy a GTX 1070 Ti their frequency will be fixed at 1607MHz-1683MHz , if you want to be stronger performance only Can be manual overclocking, for non-hardware enthusiasts are not friendly, or graphics card manufacturers have to surprise, such as get a software overclocking to avoid restrictions on NVIDIA.

Earlier on sources confirmed a release end of October. The GPU has 20 Shader clusters, just one would be disabled totalling towards 2432, which is just 128 shader procs lower than that of the GTX 1080. The clock speeds of the GTX 1070 Ti would be higher than the GTX 1070 as well at 1607 MHz and a 1683 MHz GPU Boost woth 8.00 GHz (GDDR5-effective) memory clock. The TDP would be 180W, similar to the GTX 1080. If I perform some reverse math on this, the product would offer just over 8 TFLOPS in perf.
