They were actually doing really well having not rehearsed before Tom messed it all up.

What did he do exactly tho, we saw slides ahead? What did they have?

 

[Flandy]

what did Tom do?

 

[josecitoxnyo]

$600 for this beast? DAY ONE

 

[mugurumakensei]

Damn that's a nice boost

 

[Gormenghast]

One single model = 90fps.

Why should we feel impressed, again? It's ONE model. Eery card should run that thing fine.

 

[SneakyStephan]

edit nvm I'm thinking of something else

2x titan x performance? really?

glad it overclocks well though!

 

[ChoklitCow]

I've not been too invested in VR. Why is 90fps "the thing"?

 

[Apoleptica]

Instead of releasing a 1070 they are just going to drop the price of 980ti to 970 price.

 

[Beerman462]

I don't think AMD can top this. They better undercut the shit out of Nvidia.

No thanks

 

[Starviper]

"No, I would not call this monster Tom."

 

[Mad1723]

Motion sickness and presence limits apparently

One model can have more geometry than a whole scene.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

It got like a 50% performance bump.

Anything below that and you start feeling sick and disoriented.

 

[Murugo]

Performance tests are cool if you aren't running anything on the game thread. Still, GPU is usually the bottleneck. I like it.

 

[Momentary]

DAMMMNNN!!!!

Twice the performance of a Titan X just on stock clocks man

 

[TC McQueen]

I've not been too invested in VR. Why is 90fps "the thing"?

Minimum acceptable frame rate to avoid motion sickness, IIRC.

 

[Lister]

He implied this was complex model. There could be alot of plygons and expensive lighting happening.

In other words, in an actual game this thing would be much more optimized.

 

[Interficium]

Damn guy and jesus girl, please stop.

 

[Gumbie]

DAMNNNNNNNN

lol

 

[CHC]

Well that's basically a CGI quality model

But the part they were trying to show off wasn't the FPS alone, it was the fact that the single pass rendering ups the FPS by ~50%. Much more efficient.

 

[Barzul]

I have to see the benchmarks. Just can't believe it's twice the perf

 

[Quixz]

This thing is stupid quick! What happened to 25% performance over the 980Ti

 

[Deleted member 465307]

So 180W is the power draw?

 

[LordDash]

Price incoming, I can feel it

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

2x titan x baby

 

[Justinh]

$549? I can see a bump to $600 max. Everyone talking $1000 is crazy.

I think I sort of agree. I remember the 980 I think, and the 970 in particular, being monsters for their prices when they released. I do think that prices will continue to creep up. I wouldn't be surprised at 750-800.

600 dollars though, I'd be totally happy with that and happy to be wrong, lol.

 

[Dreamwriter]

I've not been too invested in VR. Why is 90fps "the thing"?

90fps is the minimum framerate needed for VR to give a feel of really being somewhere else, according to Oculus. It is the minimum framerate needed for a VR game to be sold on the Oculus store, and the Oculus Rift display refreshes at 90hz.

 

[Dot50Cal]

What did he do exactly tho, we saw slides ahead? What did they have?

He didn't do shit, the presenter asked him to go back to the "slide", and Tom was like "wtf which slide?" and he kept telling him to back to the SLIDE, increasing in anger each time. Then he said wait a minute and then screamed for tom (on mic, on accident) and then it got quiet for a little bit and they went back several slides.

 

[Pepiope]

Tom gets fired during this video?

 

[studyguy]

Just give me the final confirmed price god damn
Also Tom getting strangled right now

 

[ChoklitCow]

Thanks, friends! Had no idea about the motion sickness and "reality" portion being at that standard. Makes sense.

 

[Bboy AJ]

This thing is stupid quick! What happened to 25% performance over the 980Ti

That came from the salty 980Ti guys. They should want tech to get better. Not hold onto the past.

 

[Renekton]

Ah GDDR5X!

 

[BennyBlanco]

he had to run that video so nobody would see him smacking the shit out of tom

 

[Abilidebob]

Wait the fuck. They changed the chart. Now the performance is at 7.

 

[Angouri]

I've not been too invested in VR. Why is 90fps "the thing"?

It's then synced to the refresh rate of the screen. No tears anymore.

 

[Gemüsepizza]

Display Port 1.4, nice.

 

[Beerman462]

1070 would have to be way overpriced for me to skip it.

 

[Apoleptica]

No thanks

 

[Unknown Soldier]

2x performance of Titan X in VR?

Ummm.....

URGE TO BUY RISING

Oh shit guys, DisplayPort 1.4 support for 4K/120hz displays. GO NUTS!

 

[Devildoll]

the spec page is up

http://www.geforce.com/hardware/10series/geforce-gtx-1080

 

[Rur0ni]

It's made for gaming technology enthusiasts.

Nvidia is probably the only company who considers us a primary market.

True words.

Also, did that video just say DP 1.4 HDR?

Edit: Yep, 1.4

$599!!!!

 

[Durante]

What's interesting is that this is basically a hardware-based extension of the viewport-morphing which already occurs in the software drivers for the Rift and Vive. So essentially which it's interesting that we can now have 16-monitor surround, the big deal is that it basically gives you VR projection for free instead of right now where it requires CPU and GPU resources.

It's not really that the reprojection requires computation time as much as that actually rendering the correct views in the first place allows you to get much closer to 1:1 pixel mapping and reduces a lot of wasted effort, without the overhead of alternative solutions to this issue on older hardware (such as the checkerboard masking Valve recently presented).

It's really awesome.

 

[CHC]

He looks genuinely proud, I'll give him that.

 

[Quonny]

he had to run that video so nobody would see him smacking the shit out of tom

And he used the 1080 to do it.

 

[Zepp Twofist]

GTX King!

 

[Lister]

Give it to meeee!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mad1723]

Wait the fuck. They changed the chart. Now the performance is at 7.

It's for VR with their new tech

 

[Bornstellar]

Wait the fuck. They changed the chart. Now the performance is at 7.

That was with the VR related enhancements.
