NVIDIA partners halt GeForce GTX 970, 980, 980Ti production and GPU Pascal codenames surface
In anticipation of upcoming Pascal products in the coming month or two, at least that's what hwbattle is reporting this morning. As we get closer to the actual launch more and more tiny little details surface, combined bringing a bigger picture.
Can you smell it in the air ? :sniff::sniff: - yeah that's the smell of 16nm GPUs coming closer and closer.
It looks like that Nvidia will indeed name the upcoming GTX series the GeForce GXT 1070, 1080 and as it seems now perhaps even a 1080 Ti. The GPU naming now surfaced as well. Logic however would assume a Ti release later in the year opposed to everything being released at once in the summer.
- Equivalent to GTX 980 Ti will use a GP 104-400 GPU
- Equivalent to GTX 980 will use a GP 104-200 GPU
- Equivalent to GTX 970 will use a GP 104-150 GPU
As you can see that still leaves open GP100 (big pascal) for later in the year with likely a Titan based naming, ...
| Maxwell | Pascal | Board | Date | |
| NVIDIA Geforce GTX 980Ti | >> | GP 104-400 | Reference -> AIB | early June |
| NVIDIA Geforce GTX 980 | >> | GP 104-200 | Reference -> AIB | early June |
| NVIDIA Geforce GTX 970 | >> | GP 104-150 | AIB design | mid June |

Question is, what happens with not so well working Titan GPUs? If you are not cutting defective parts into smaller (and working) GPU, where does that go? Are yields so good, that they can throw GPUs to thrash?
There is either bad naming here, or we should presume that there will be yet another GPU based on cut down Biggest Pascal.
Or did they conclude that Having GTX980Ti alongside Titan X was not cost efficient in contrast of having only Titan X?
And they want to separate new Titan performance class more this time around?
... or is the above 'leak' simply wrong?
The longer I think about it, the less I see the table match what I expected, or that would sound logical to me. We'll see if it's true, I can be wrong easily

Also about the names, they aren't that bad but I would have prefer the X80, X70, X60 naming scheme. They sound a bit more "futuristic".
I guess they didn't use them because there must have been some conflicts with the names rights or something.
Or saving them for Volta.
P.S: Now that they have hold Maxwell production, will everyone try to get rid of stock? In unprecedented low prices?

Sweet! Maybe next year, after I get some post college full time money, I'll go buy a x70 equivalent again since my 970 has served me so well.

ATi had X800 and it looked good. I had one, but then they had X1800 and that was not cool name.
Here in Czech Republic, I expect price gouging as stock lowers.

I seems the time for having a Ti which was based on a Titan with a few "compromises" comes to an end. I hope I'm wrong.
I would have love a 1080Ti based on Titan again with a few things cut down and 12GB HBM2. Wishful thinking I guess.
We will know soon if the performance is there and it justifies their decision. I would have like some GP100.
Btw, this is all based or speculations/rumors so far obviously.
This. Also we can assume if its based on GP104 then no HBM2 for the Ti.
