The specification nearly complete GeForce GTX 1070, to debut in a few weeks

Yesterday expired the embargo on speed performance of video cards NVIDIA GeForce 1080 GTX: find our analysis available online at this address. For the commercial debut card is set for May 27, an official list amounted to € 799.00 including VAT for the Founders Edition.

NVIDIA also prepares the debut of a second graphics card based on the GP104 Pascal GPU family: we refer to the GeForce 1070 GTX model, a proposal that will be sold starting from June 10 at a price of approximately € 520.00 tax included again for the Founders Edition. We will also custom versions developed by the partners, with retail prices that should be lower than those of the Founders Edition and presumably starting from about € 450.00 including VAT.

Change the specifications of memory, which goes into GDDR5 standard against what GDDR5X adopted by the GeForce GTX 1080. The actual clock frequency is 8 GHz, a figure higher than the actual 7 GHz GDDR5 memory combined with the GeForce GTX 900 family cards .

then GeForce 1070 GTX on the card comes with a computing power of the GPU which is lower by about 30% compared to GeForce 1080 GTX, in view of the number of CUDA cores and the clock speed boost. Slightly lower than the decrease for the memory component, that we can quantify in an approximately -20% in view of the lower bandwidth. NVIDIA claims a TDP of 150 Watts for this card, which is lower than 30 watts compared to the GeForce 1080 GTX model.
