NVIDIA Pascal GP104 Die Photo
Last week Nvidia announced the Tesla P100 data-center GPU and if you looked closely at the photo's you could already clearly see that big Pascal 15B transistor GPU being used. A new photo this time showing the GP104 GPU (successor to the GM204 = GTX 970/980).
According to the leak the photo shown below is the GP104 (GM204 successor) intended for Nvidia's pending high-end products, and it measures roughly 290-300mm². At the right side you can see Samsung K4G80325FB - 1.5V 8Gb 8Gbps (8000MHz) GDDR5. Word on the street is that this GPU would hold 2560 shader processors.
The rectangular die of the GP104 was measured at 15.35 mm x 19.18 mm which should house (very speculative) a transistor-count of 7.4~7.9 billion. Interesting to see is that this chip is tied towards Samsung 8-gigabit GDDR5 memory chips. These ICs run an effective speed of 8 GHz (GDDR5 and thus not GDDR5X). At 256-bit you'ld be looking at 256 GB/s of bandwidth. The shader processor core count of the GP104 could be closer to 2,560, than the 4,096 from an older report.
Earlier on it was speculated that graphics cards based on these GPUs would be called X70 and X80, the specs do not meet up even slightly though.

I would think both amd and nvidia will have full dx12 support with the upcoming gpus. Even intel has.

This is proly the 2nd most important GPU in NV lineup. After GP100.
Because of volumes sold at hefty prices in desktop and mobile, in both pro and GTX variant.
But how they'll be able to do it with GDDR5 and 256bit, I have no idea.
Faster memory modules and better compression are obvious starting points.
Hopefully it will make 980Ti completely obsolete. No worries, it will
Because anything else would be a fail.
I'd say this is just a filler to make some sales. Not what we're waiting for. (HBM2, 15B transistors)

ofc 1070 will be well worth it(again), 980ti performance level for about 350/400$$ and combine that with 8GB gddr5 onboard

I don't see the problem as the GTX brand has been diluted to the point of being meaningless. It used to be only the high end models were GTX, like *70 and *80 series cards. Now you have GTX 950's out the *ss. Seriously? It's a 950.
So no more GTX brand for nvidia after all this years, now its just X.

I mean it basically lines up with what Polaris 10 is. We aren't getting consumer level 600mm2 cards first and we've known that for over a year. I'm not sure why people are surprised by the specs.
