How about nvidia geforce gtx 1080

Nvidia GTX 1080 is more advanced in terms of underlying architecture, using a 16-nanometer FinFET process, which is undoubtedly better than the previous 28-nanometer Maxwell.

Tencent Digital News (Bob) Every year, graphics card manufacturers launch new products to stimulate consumers to upgrade. This year, Nvidia’s GTX 1080 has undoubtedly once again received a high degree of attention. In media tests, this graphics card was called the "new king" and its performance was twice as impressive as products of the same level. In addition, optimization for virtual reality is also a part worth looking forward to. So, how powerful is the GTX 1080? Let’s find out together.

1. Faster than expected

First of all, Nvidia GTX 1080 is more advanced in terms of underlying architecture, using a 16-nanometer FinFET process, which is undoubtedly better than the previous 28-nanometer Maxwell . The new process allows the graphics card to integrate more transistors, up to 7.2 billion, and is also equipped with 20 multi-processors (each with 128 cores), 160 texture units, 2560 CUDA cores, GDDR5X 8GB video RAM (10Gbps) Wait, while generating less heat and consuming less power.

2. Multi-screen simultaneous output

Nvidia GTX 1080 has been optimized for multi-screen real-time synchronization, aiming to achieve a better sense of depth and perspective. It is worth mentioning that with the popularity of virtual reality, many users will choose to synchronize output to an external monitor when running games to share with friends. Currently, this mechanism wastes a lot of resources because it requires the PC to render a rectangular screen alone. In response to this situation, Nvidia GTX 1080 adopts a more advanced lens matching shadow mechanism to achieve smooth 60fps synchronous output and consume less graphics card resources.

3. Fast-Sync

Nvidia itself already has G-Sync function, which can achieve smoother game graphics and reduce tearing. Nvidia GTX 1080 upgrades it to Fast-Sync, which can check each rendered frame of the game in real time and more intelligently refer to the monitor hardware refresh rate to achieve better picture effects.

4. Asynchronous computing

Nvidia GTX 1080 has a new dynamic working mode that can more intelligently call the central processing unit to achieve asynchronous computing effects between the CPU and GPU. Simply put, the processor and graphics card can work better together to dynamically adjust power, ultimately achieving a frame rate increase of 15-20% per second.

5. GPU Boost 3.0 + new SLI bridge

For overclocking players, Nvidia GTX 1080 is more playable. First, GPU Boost 3.0 is smarter for safe overclocking and works better with overclocking software. In addition, the new SLI bridge format can achieve 4K/144fps picture effects, which is more meaningful for high-end players.

6. Ansel allows you to become a game photographer

Although it is not a unique feature of Nvidia GTX 1080, Ansel is undoubtedly a new feature worth looking forward to. It is an in-game camera function that allows users to capture 2D photos with up to 800 million pixels, and can also take 360-degree photos for use with virtual reality headsets. Users can also adjust photo color, focus, aperture and other details, and the effect is amazing. Perhaps game photographers will also become a new profession.

7. Goodbye public version, here comes the founding version

Interestingly, Nvdiia has also changed the version naming of GTX 1080, no longer using "Reference Edition", but It was changed to "Founders Edition". In essence, the founding version has more detailed workmanship than the previous public version, including the use of steam cooling and aluminum alloy shields. The performance and heat dissipation are expected to be more ideal, but the price is more expensive. Of course, users can also choose cost-effective versions from third-party manufacturers.
