We’re as giddy as anyone about the imminent release of NVIDIA’s new monster graphics card, the GeForce GTX 1080, and, in the meantime, the leaks keep coming. German tech news site Hardwareluxx has managed to obtain a screenshot of the GTX 1080’s GPU-Z benchmark.
Since we’ve already had detailed specs released by NVIDIA – plus 3DMark performance results earlier today – why is this notable? Well, independent confirmation is never a bad thing. If this screenshot is real – and the device ID 1B80 certainly checks out – it reveals that the ROPs/TMUs are 64/160.
The 160 Texture Units sounds about right, 64 ROPs seems a tad low (talk suggests it’s closer to 80), with that figure being on par with the GTX 980. The true figures are absent from the specifications listed on the NVIDIA website, so while one sounds realistic, the other may or may not be true.
However, GPU-Z is not usually able to measure accurate results without first being calibrated to the hardware it is reading. Since the Pascal architecture is still new, there is no guarantee that the results here represent a true picture of the GTX 1080.
The 3DMark benchmarks, released earlier today, have revealed that the GTX 1080 is around 20% faster than NVIDIA’s former premier graphics card, the GTX TITAN X.
