The NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti has been in the rumors mills for quite some time already. Now, the said GPU has spotted featuring 10GB of RAM and a price tag of $1,010.
Hot Hardware had learned that NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti targeted to bring Titan X class performance to gamers and tech enthusiasts at a price point somewhere between the Titan X and the potent GeForce GTX 1080. This GPU was reportedly first spotted on a shipping manifest by Videocardz.
Additionally, Appuals reported that the manifest shows an entry with the name 'PG611 SKU0010 GPU' and '699-G611-0010-00'. It was also observed that these numbers almost perfectly match the GeForce GTX Titan X Pascal, as PG611 refers to PCB and one is tagged with the SKU code '00', which can be seen below:
FOC / PG611 SKU0010 GPU / 384-BIT 10240MB GDDR COMPUTER GRAPHICS CARDS, 699-1G611-0010-000.
This code suggests that the GP102 has 2GB less memory than the Titan X.
When it comes with the previous speculation on the NVIDIA GTX 1080 Ti's specifications, it seems that this GPU will be receiving 52 shader clusters, giving it 3328 shader processors, on top of DDR5 memory. The 1080 Ti will also be using GP102 silicon, much like the Pascal series processor.
Also, there are hearsays suggesting that the upcoming GeForce GTX 1080 Ti could be shown off at Consumers Electronics Show (CES) in January. Another talks stated that it will be released prior to that for the holiday season. The NVIVIA GTX 20180 Ti is believed to offer 384 GB/s of memory bandwidth, less than the Titan X which boasts 480 GB/s. It'll also have a 250 Watt TDP. As for the price, it is expected to be tagged at $1,010.
Although the above information is somewhat believable it is still advised to be treated with skepticism. Nonetheless, NVIDIA is expected to reveal every little about the GTX 1080 Ti really soon.
