GTX 1080 Octanebench? Tweet

Has anyone seen any octanebench scores for the new Nvida GTX 1080? Curious to see how it's going to run with octane.

HardwareCanucks a youtuber respond to me this morning "Will reveal those results in our Video Production video on the GTX 1080. Stay tuned!" so... more wait

Ahh man the wait is killing me lol!

Same Here, can some one on Otoy can pull us out of our misery?

We would need to update the OctaneBench tool and that will require CUDA toolkit version 8, which hasn't been released yet (see https://devblogs.nvidia.com/parallelfor ... -revealed/). We also don't have a GTX 1080 at the office yet. Until then you won't see any Octane benchmarks of Pascal hardware. And yes, we are also curious how it compares to Maxwell.

Ahh I see, would a 1080 be compatible with forthcoming v3 release?

Not initially (for the same reasons as above), but we will make it compatible as soon as possible.

Any updates on a benchmark for these cards yet?

There was another thread here somewhere where somebody had some tests. I believe the current unoptimized GTX 1080 speed was still slower than a GTX 980 TI.

it's been 8 months, still no news on that topic?
