No, but when it comes to water and electronics, corrosion isn't the concern. Conductivity is.

Yeah.. if it's on and running and water contacts it, and contacts dust on the surface of it, then it'll just fry the thing instantly, or in 1-15 seconds or so. Backplate or not won't matter. Although if you have a solid-metal backplate with no holes, you -may- get lucky and something leak onto it and not touch the video card for a while.. might buy you like +30 seconds in a leak situation.

Their OC'd 980TI scores are terrible, maybe there's something wrong with their card.
 
Sadly that's only what, as fast as a GP102 @ 1.9GHz? If it can hit 2.1GHz on air as well, an air-cooled 1080Ti will blow away even the fastest LN2 1080s.
 
On a positive note Overclock3D got their ASUS Geforce GTX 1080 Strix to 2.1 GHz using the automatic overclocking tool. Might be possible to push it a bit further with some manual tuning. Probably my favourite custom design from this first batch.

Some bits from MSI GeForce GTX 1070 Gaming X's review (other forums):

- 1974 MHz core clock out of the box
- 67 C load temps, with a 39% fan speed

10-20% better performance without much effort isn't bad at all. This will be a killer card if it costs around $400.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Goes On Sale

NVIDIA's more economically significant graphics card based on the "Pascal" architecture, the GeForce GTX 1070, goes on sale from today (10/06). The card starts at US $379, with NVIDIA selling the reference-design board for a $70 premium, as the GTX 1070 Founders Edition, priced at $449. With NVIDIA claiming performance levels higher than the previous-generation $999 GeForce GTX Titan X, the GTX 1070 could prove to be the gateway to 4K Ultra HD gaming with reasonably high eye-candy.

Based on the 16 nm "GP104" silicon, the GeForce GTX 1070 features 1,920 CUDA cores, 120 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and a 256-bit GDDR5 memory interface, holding 8 GB of memory. The core ticks at 1506 MHz, with a GPU Boost frequency of 1683 MHz, while the memory runs at 2000 MHz (actual), 8 GHz (GDDR5-effective), yielding a memory bandwidth of 256 GB/s. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.4, one HDMI 2.0b, and a dual-link DVI-D.

BTW here's a custom Geforce GTX 980 Ti (Gigabyte XtremeGaming) at ~1500/2100 (core/memory):

Very similar result, and custom Geforce GTX 1070 can probably go above that.

For all the criticism this card got for having 1920 SPs and 256-bit GDDR5, it's performing very well.

thanks for the info.
I think its rather weird that people need to compare old Nvidia cards vs new Nvidia cards .......
I think its rather simple, If you have a gtx980ti and are happy with its performance, keep it, unless you need ~ 25% boost that a 1080 will provide. In this case buy a 630$ 1080 AIB card.
If you own a gtx980/970 or a AMD 390/390x and you want ~ 25 to 40% boost buy a 400$ 1070.
If you own a gtx960 4gb or AMD 380 and want a 35 to 45% boost, buy gtx970 or AMD 390 for ~ 250$ or wait a bit for the 250$ gtx1060/480.

If you game and want to use any card less than the above gtx960/380, buy a Xbox one or PS4. 🙂

I know this is an old argument but there's a lot that PC's can do that consoles can not... specifically 4k @ 60 FPS with two 1080's. And we have to compare them to the older cards. How else would we know if they're even any faster / an upgrade at all?

For how long will a single GTX 1070 can run games good at 1440p?
Click to expand...

It all depends on what you determine "run good" and what your setup is. Do you have a basic 60 htz monitor and therefore your only target is 60 FPS @ 1440p? Then yes the 1070 will be fine for you. Do you have a high refresh-rate monitor like 120 htz and thus require 120 FPS in all games @ 1440p? If so then even a single overclocked, aftermarket 1080 can't deliver that in all games.

And there is no way to know the future for "how long". A new "killer app" games may come out next month. Or next year, or 2 years later that would demand a newer video card, there's no way to know.

So now we can retire the silly rumour that 1060 would be GP104 based. And say welcome to GP106 🙂

Interesting to see what the difference between GP107 and GP107F is, perhaps mobile focus. GP108 should be mobile only for example.
 
Just an update. According to Chiphell the GP104-150 SKU, first mentioned by HardwareBattle back in April is actually a mobile (notebook) design. This means the VGA 'leaked' by Inno3D is most likely GP106-400 based, 'Geforce GTX 1060' could be the next in line to launch.

Now that we know it not a gp104 variant which would have made it easier to guess the performance, what do you think the gp106 will be like?

We can guess it will be about 480 speeds A.K.A 390/gtx980 speeds.

what do you think the sp's and rop's and memory bandwidth look like?
I'm rather lost.
 
Seeing the die shrink get quite as far down the stack as GP108 - very cost sensitive down there - is perhaps a slight surprise. Maybe obliged by the iGPUs getting better.
 
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 to feature 6GB 192-bit memory?

The first listing shows E2914 board, which is an engineering sample with GP106 processor. According to this data, this sample would sport 6GB ‘GDD(5)’ memory:

E2914-A01 SKU0020 GP106 BRING-UP 6GB GDD FUNCTIONAL TEST PCA BOARDS, 699-12914-0020-100

The second listing could explain why there are 6GB models of GP106. It seems that GP106 could feature 192-bit memory bus:

PG410-A01 SKU0030 GP106 192B 128MX32 DP+ COMPUTER GRAPHICS CARDS, 699-1G410-0030-100

Interestingly, the memory size on PG410 board is 4GB. While both boards carry different numbers, they also have different SKUs (20 vs 30). The PG410 SKU 30 could be 4GB model, while SKU 20 would feature 6GB.

Of course this is just my theory, but there might be two GP106 products in the making (apart from PG418 board shown in Drive PX 2 module).
