Nvidia GTX 980M Maxwell GPU Arriving In October
Ryan Martin / 10 years ago
New rumours suggest that we could be seeing Nvidia’s newest flagship mobile GPU as soon as October. The flagship part, expected to be the GTX 980M, will be based on the Maxwell architecture design although the lithography is unknown – it could theoretically be 28nm or 20nm but 28nm seems most likely given TSMC’s 20nm roadmap. The die design that will be used will be the GM204 and the Maxwell GeForce Mobility line should spawn several GPUs, a speculated list is as follows:
- Geforce GT 940M
- Geforce GTX 950M
- Geforce GTX 960M
- Geforce GTX 970M
- Geforce GTX 975M
- Geforce GTX 980M
The Maxwell-based GTX 980M will offer a significant step up from the current Kepler GK104 based GTX 880M. If the GTX 980M does ship in October we could see it arrive in gaming notebooks such as those made by Aorus, ASUS Republic of Gamers and MSI.
