ou, sorry, Nuno. Missed that =) the card You're using is simply great performer, due to the fact it has very good core & extra powerful cooler. No surprize it behaves like this =) as other card in comparison might be throttled down.

Thank you! Great news isn't for GTX 1080 because GTX 1080 is ONLY LITTLE faster than my GPU and GTX 980 Ti can have the bad optimization.

PS: Look I got licensed customer since may 20th. But I've OR standalone only and I'll upgrade later to 3.xx in this month.

1. 8GB of vram is 2GB more than 980Ti or any other Titans You could buy in recent years

* apart from the Titan X

ou yes =) sorry, that card is still on it's own league =) I'm not even comparing it.
Personally I would still be looking to X instead of 1080s =)..

- that's a point of those high end models - You keep them for longer.. saving You money =)

Yes, I am looking at it from the point of view of being a Titan X owner. But I also own the 660 Ti and it's still the same feeling.
I speculate NVidia really has a powerful consumer-level GPU waiting to be released that would beat all Titan X specs, but they want to see how many bite$ they can get from a weaker model under the Pascal name before selling their 'real' Pascal card. Can't knock them for it, but it is what it is...a lukewarm advancement with the 1080. This other 'real' Pascal card with will be likely >$1,000 US I'm thinking, and I have to imagine its ready once sales slow on 1080. Maybe my idea of how they release cards is just off, I imagined the 1st offering would beat Titan X specs.

I also expect sort of dual 1080s under one shell..before seeing big Pascal. A lot will be about demand/supply (on server segment) & market tacktics (on gamer side)..as AMD do nto focus to realease anythign from high end..why should nvidia canibalise their own sales.. - I doubt we'll see anything from big Pascal earlier than xmax or even early next year. Will be interesting to keep an eye on this..

GTX Titan Pascal will have new HBM2. HBM2 will have less power than GDDR5(X) but HBM2 will be more expensive. I'll buy this card only in Q1 2017.

Just picked up my first 1080. Reaaaaaaaally wish Octane get their 1080's soon so we can get going with this.
Perhaps they could speak to their neighbour Blackmagic Design? DaVinci Resolve rocks the 1080 like mad!!

That's excellent news about the Resolve performance. I've looked for a link on the Black Magic website, but couldn't find any threads on it. Would you mind sharing details, especially a comparison against the Titan X or the 980ti?

[Notiusweb]

What are you guys referring to, won't it work with Octane based on its own power, or does it additionally have an ability to take advantage of some new-"something" that Octane Render does not have, or does not support yet?
PS - anyone with a 1080, Octane Bench that badboy!
