Its finally here! Thehigh-end graphics card with the new Pascal architecture. After more than four years with graphics chips limited to 28 nm by the manufacturing process, the GTX 1080's GP104 GPU takes advantage of the latest 16 nm FinFET process. Besides the advances in scaling the GeForce GTX 1080 ushers in the new "Pascal" architecture, bringing with it a wide range of improvements in comparison to Maxwell. The GeForce GTX 1080 is the first graphics card to make use of the new breed of GDDR5X VRAM. This VRAM offers an increase in performance of up to 50 % in comparison to traditional GDDR5 VRAM. The processing power of the GTX 1080 amounts to an incredible 9 TFLOPS, cementing its position as the most powerful single-GPU graphics card gamers can buy!With a GPU base clock frequency of 1607 MHz the GTX 1080 "Founders Edition" puts an extremely high base clock at your fingertips. This base clock can then be automatically increased to 1,733 MHz when even more performance is required. The GTX 1080s 8GB of GDDR5X VRAM is clocked at 5,000 MHz (10,000 MHz effective). The VRAM is connected to the GPU via a 256-bit memory interface, reaching a maximum throughput of 320 GB/s.In addition to the VRAM the GP104 GPU offers 2,560 CUDA cores that also play an equal role in the raw gaming power of the GTX 1080. The GTX 1080 supports DirectX 12 as well as current gaming technologies such as NVIDIA Gameworks, Warp, Stereo X, VR Audio, PhysX and SMP (Simultaneous Multi-Projection). Version 4.0 is now supported and confers huge benefits upon users of VR and curved displays as well as standard multi-display setups.Multiple monitors were previously recognised by games as a single extra-wide monitor, whereby the GPU merely rendered a single viewport that resulted in warping and distortion. Thanks to SMP, Pascal now supports 16 simultaneous Viewports thus allowing fundamentally more realistic graphics on multiple monitors, curved displays, or in 3D applications. VR in particular benefits from the new technology as it supports the simultaneous rendering of two viewports in a single pass. By using multiple viewports the rendered image requires a smaller number of pixel calculations, massively increasing performance in VR applications.Summoning up the full power of the GeForce GTX 1080 demands an equally powerful cooling solution. The "Founders Edition" achieves its exceptional cooling by means of a Vapour Chamber. This utilises an evaporation effect that carries the heat quickly and effectively away from the GPU whilst still allowing low-noise cooling. This cooling is supported by a 65 mm radial fan as well as an efficient aluminium heat sink. NVIDIA themselves stated that the cooler keeps the graphics card within acceptable limits even under heavy load. If a dual-GPU combination is being considered then the Founders Edition allows an additional improvement in air-flow via the partially removable cutout on the backplate. The aggressively angular design of the cooling shroud used in the GeForce 1080 founders Edition also cuts a striking figure in any gaming PC.Despite the extremely high performance as well as the 8 GB of GDDR5X VRAM the GeForce GTX 1080 functions with a TDP of just 180 Watts, which in comparison to its immediate predecessor, the GTX 980, is a mere 15 Watts more - even taking into account the striking increases in speed. In part, this is also possible thanks to the redesigned PCB which now utilises the GPUs new five-phase supply that harnesses a multitude of optimisations on the PCB itself. This entails an increase in energy efficiency when compared to the GTX 980 by a full 6 %. All that is required to keep the GPU supplied with power is a single 8-pin PCI-E power plug.In order to convey the results of all that number crunching onto your display or into the lenses of your VR headset, the GeForce GTX 1080 avails itself of the most up-to-date ports. Three DisplayPort 1.4 ports and an HDMI 2.0b connector stand ready to convey your 4K or Ultra High Definition (UHD) content at 60 Hz, also offering support for HDCP 2.2 which allows you to send and receive encrypted content (4K Blu-Rays, 4K Streaming). Alternatively the GTX 1080 also offers a DVI-D (Dual-Link) output.In spite of the formidable design of the "Founders Edition" it measures a mere 26.67 cm lengthwise and 11.12 cm across. As is customary for such technological marvels the GTX 1080 requires two expansion slots. In order to exploit the full potential of the card in the long-term it is recommended to update your drivers from NVIDIA or EVGA at regular intervals.At Caseking, defective graphics cards of all the brands listed below that are validly returned (meaning that the faults can be verified by us) by customers during the two year warranty period, starting with the receipt of the goods, will be immediately replaced with aif in stock.
