First GeForce GTX 980 Ti Pictures hit the web
The first pictures of NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 980 Ti graphics card have been outed yesterday, the Ti model is the upcoming enthusiast class graphics card from Nvidia.
It is rumored that the GTX 980 Ti will get the tweaked GPU that the Titan X also has yet with 22 activated SMXes out of the 24 that the X has, with 128 shader processors per cluster that boils down to 2816 CUDA/Shader/Stream Cores in total. Meanwhile a website claims that the specs in full have been released through HWBattle.
Keep in mind that the shader/cuda/stream core count states little about the ROPs in use, so there are a lot of other variables that come into play. The card would have 6 GB of graphics memory and should get a have 250W TDP, and is rumored that the release is due somewhere in the Computex time-frame.
The card has the same looks, feel and cooler as the GTX 980. There's no back-plate on this model either, which is something a lot of people had hopes for. Keep in mind that the photo shows a reference model, it is our believe that the board partners can come up with their own designs and cooling solutions as well as differently clocked SKUs.

Same...
Im not the least bit excited about recent gpu releases at all... tiny advancements, at ever increasing prices.
As of late, dont know what would be worse... bad driver support from amd, or nvidia only supporting the very newest gpu's.
I really hope that AMD will do something about their driver support because I really want to buy a 390X.

You are very hopefully... they always same with their drivers.
They even can't take two extra peoples to test their CF profiles.
How 295X2 work on Witcher 3. Like they don't know fact that the prewiev and game already exist

Normall backplate not helping Titan X anyway.
It need something like Acelero made - specially top grill!

While 3.5+0.5 can be in certain scenarios nasty (not for anyone sane since it is easy to keep under 2~2.5GB vram use as textures required qould not make visual impact anyway till 4k and for that 970 has no power), having 5.5+0.5 is not problem at all.
And on other hand gtx970 has cut out 1/8th (12.5% to full card), if this is 5.5+0.5 then it is 1/12th (8.3% to full card). So I think they used other means to gimp it here.

Probably gonna be 5gb+1gb unless they figured out some other way of cutting off parts without compromising memory, this is not meant as a joke, it is for real, this card is to the titan x what 970 is to 980 and since parts of the die are disabled, it is only logical to assume it will be disabled the same way it was on 970 compromising memory performance

No, it doesn't.
