These days, hardcore gamers are itching for the opportunity to run titles at 4K while maintaining a consistent 60 frame per second. Until recently, the only graphics cards that could provide this kind of experience was the NVidia Titan X. With the release of the GTX 1080 Ti, will gamers finally get a GPU that lives up to their expectations?
There are several things about the new 1080 Ti that really has both gamers and media publications excited. For one thing, the GPU is said to be the most powerful on NVidia’s roster yet, at least as far as gaming performance goes. For another, it’s incredibly cheap as far as current generation GPUs go, with its $699 price tag.
In comparison, the similarly specced Titan X costs about $1,200. At about the same performance and with considerably more options for use, publications like PC World are already calling the 1080 Ti a Titan slayer. Anyone who follows developments in the gaming industry wouldn’t be surprised if this is the case, however, since the Titan is always surpassed eventually.
On paper, the 1080 Ti has 6 graphics processing clusters, is equipped with 3584 CUDA cores, and has over 11GB of memory. As any gamer worth their salt would know, specs aren’t everything, which is why it’s worth looking at the data of the GPU that was put through its paces.
So, what was the verdict? In practically every test, the 1080 Ti was able to achieve and maintain 60FPS at 4K resolution with some of the most demanding titles in the market. With some tests, the GPU even achieved a mind-numbing 101FPS, Seeking Alpha reports.
With the AMD Vega coming to the market, NVidia is going to need the loyalty of its fan base even more. The new GPU will go a long way towards making sure of that.
