Nvidia has been hosting a livestream making some announcements, the new high-end GTX 1080 Ti features 3584 CUDA Cores, 224 Texture Units, a 352-bit memory controller and 11 GB of GDDR5X memory. The card should be faster than a reference Titan X and 30% faster compared to a GTX 1080.

The card has the same "GP102" GPU as the TITAN X Pascal, the GTX 1080 Ti but was slighty cut-down. Interesting is the 352-bit with GDDR5X memory interface, this was not expected. This translates to 11 memory chips on the card which run at 11 GHz (GDDR5X-effective), the memory bandwidth is 484 GB/s. Thiis means the ROP count is would be 88 (from 96 on the TITAN X Pascal), and the TMU count 224.The Ti will boost up to 1600 MHz, but the overclocking potential is much like all GeForce Pascal cards in the 2 GHz range. The GTX 1080 Ti has 8-pin and 6-pin power connectors and TDP around 220 W.

GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Specifications

12 Billion Transistors
1.6 GHz Boost, 2 GHz OC capable clock speeds
28 SMs, 128 CUDA Cores each
3,584 CUDA Cores
28 Geometry Units
224 Texture Units
6 GPCs
88 ROP Units
352-bit GDDR5x Micron Memory
220W TDP

Nvidia also announced it is is lowering the price on Geforce GTX 1080 to 499 USD. Nvidia is also introduced Gameworks for DX12 during the event. Nvidia overall is lowering prices in the enthusiast ranges a bit for sure. The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti will be priced 699 USD and will be released by next week.

This video card is available for pre order. http://www.geforce.co.uk/hardware/10series/geforce-gtx-1080-ti/?nvid=nv-int-ms-8259#cid=Internal-organic-GF-UK-CORPWMFG-NVIDIA-homepage-GTX-1080TI

I read somewhere there would be a displayport -> DVI converter in the box. Check before you pull the trigger to make sure.

Only problem is the DP-DVP adapter does not support past QHD@60Hz. My monitor will OC to 110Hz. Again not a deal breaker persey just being consistent. I bashed AMD dropping DVI early and I will give Nvidia a bit of Hell for it too. We will likely see custom boards with DVI.

Oh and in case y'all miss d it Hilbert appears to have already revived his reviewers sample from the green overlords.

ASUS confirmed that their Strix variants will have DVI, 2x HDMI, 2x DP. I'm thinking of picking one up because I want the 4K 144Hz monitor they are putting out and Ti will make that experience better.

I think the removal of DVI makes more sense for blower style cards that exhaust completely through the back. The rest will probably still have it for a few more generations.

I have a reference/FE 1080 Ti pre ordered from NVIDIA, and the removal of the DVI connector (and subsequent better performing cooler) is one of the main reasons why I am not waiting for AIB models this time around.
