The new Nvidia GTX 1070 makes an appearance recently and has defeated AMD's current lineup that was also recently revealed. The new graphics card has also overcome the recent Titan X.
After the launch of the GTX 1080 recently, it made the new Pascal-derived graphic processing units as the top ones on the market. It has higher specs, which is almost comparable to the GTX 1080, but with certain features removed to make it more financially and technologically convenient for their buyers.
When the GTX 1070 appeared, it has gone and defeated all of the recent launches of AMD's GPUs and has surpassed Nvidia's past video cards, according to ExtremeTech. The video card company's rival, AMD, has recently showcased their new graphics processing unit, the new 14nm FinFet Radeon RX 480, and it is almost comparable to their recent one, except it is more affordable. The GTX 1070 might not be cheaper than the AMD GPU, but it does bring down the price a bit compared to the GTX 1080, and has better features that really makes it worth the price.
The new GPU is based on the same GP104 GPU that is in the current highest iteration of the 1000 lineup, according to Forbes. It can support the same new rendering technologies that the Pascal architecture offers to the fans like 3D VR photography engine, and other features. However, this recently revealed GPU has some features disabled like one of its Graphics Processing Clusters is disabled, which makes it only enable 1920 CUDA cores.
The latest Nvidia graphics processing card has a base frequency of 150 megahertz with a 1683 boost clock, which is scaled down compared to the GTX 1080's 1733 MHz. It also has the GDDR5 memory, while the superior version has the Micron GDDR5X memory.
This newly revealed GPU has 6.45 TFLOPs, which is still almost comparable to the GTX 1080, and it performs superbly. The card achieves this type of performance with a 150 Watt Thermal Design Power envelope, and with just a single 8-pin PCIe power connector. It even uses lesser power than its predecessors, which makes it a great choice for PC enthusiasts who are fans of the Nvidia series.
