NVIDIA Brings Desktop Graphics Performance To Gaming Notebooks With Pascal GPU

When NVIDIA announces its Pascal GPU as the new king of consumer graphics, we were already been given a hint that the mobile Pascal GPU is already on its way to the gaming notebooks and will be available by the mid of August, which is today.

Instead of going with the mobile GPU as usual, NVIDIA went full force with desktop Pascal GPU for all the latest gaming notebooks equipped with a NVIDIA GPU to deliver the best possible gaming performance for the gamers on the go. 

Desktop GPU Performance On Gaming Notebooks

The Pascal GPU to be available on all the upcoming gaming notebooks consists of the existing Pascal GPU with a slightly lower GPU boost clock over its desktop counterpart. The GTX 1070 however, appears to have a slightly higher CUDA cores count of 2048 compared to its desktop counterpart with 1920 CUDA cores count. NVIDIA did not disclose the reason behind the different CUDA cores count but we are assuming that out of all the Pascal GPU for gaming notebooks, the GTX 1070 for gaming notebooks will offer the closest performance to its desktop counterpart with that extra CUDA cores.

According to NVIDIA, the Pascal GPU is capable of up to 3 times more performance that the previous generation Maxwell mobile GPU, claiming that a GTX 1080 on a gaming notebook can easily beat a GTX 980M on SLI. All these Pascal GPU powered gaming notebooks comes with dual-FET power supply for increased power efficiency and power delivery to give higher peak current to deliver up to 95% of the performance you're experiencing on a gaming desktop. 

NVIDIA also confirmed to allow overclocking on the Pascal GPU for gaming notebooks, where it is equipped with a multi-phased power controller to deliver better power density for better overclocking performance just in case if you're one of those enthusiasts who wanted more performance from overclocking. As we're all aware that not everyone will attempt to overclock the GPU of their gaming notebook, we can expect most of the NVIDIA partner to offer their own Pascal GPU gaming notebooks with higher clock speed.

With the now refined BatteryBoost and better power efficiency of the Pascal GPU, NVIDIA boasts not only a 30% better battery life on Pascal GPU powered gaming notebooks but also improved unplugged performance that promises near to zero stutters caused by CPU interruptions as well as controlling the overall frame rates at the seemingly playable 30 fps.  

To further leverage your gaming experience, these upcoming Pascal GPU powered gaming notebooks will not only come as thin as 18mm and las light as 4lbs, some of the gaming notebooks will come also with G-SYNC panel capable of 120Hz for a ultra-smooth gaming experience, as well as display resolution of at least 2560 x 1440 and in some case, up to 4k display. 

NVIDIA unveiled some benchmark result of few AAA titles from its test lab as well, showing that the Pascal GPU for gaming notebooks are indeed capable of 120HZ gaming and 4K gaming with a very decent fps count on high settings. 

Just like its desktop counterpart, the Pascal GPU for gaming notebooks grant these upcoming gaming notebooks with Pascal GPU the ability to support all the upcoming VR titles with NVIDIA VRWorks integrated i.e: Poolnation VR, Everest VR, Unreal Tournament, Obduction, ADridt, Raw Data, etc. 

The revolutionary in-game screen capturing technology, NVIDIA Ansel too will be supported on the Pascal GPU powered gaming notebooks for the upcoming updates for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Epic Games' Fortnite, Paragon and Unreal Tournament, Cyan Worlds' Obduction, Thekla’s The Witness, Boss Key Productions’ Lawbreakers, Ubisoft’s Tom Clancy’s The Division, and the highly-anticipated No Man’s Sky from Hello Games.

With the Pascal GPU for gaming notebooks going official starting from today, we can expect to see more of these gaming notebooks with Pascal GPU from involving partners such as Sager, Gigabyte, Lenovo, Clevo, EVGA, Alienware, ASUS, MSI , HP, Acer, Razer, Origin, XMG, etc from now and onward.

Leaked 3DMark Performance Shows NVIDIA Titan X Pascal Is 29% Faster Than The GTX 1080

Earlier leaked synthetic benchmark of the new NVIDIA Titan X Pascal suggests that reviewers around the world have already started receiving the Titan X Pascal samples from NVIDIA, but the most recent leak suggests that NVIDIA has decided to not doing that on a large scale. So, don't be surprised if you can't find many reviews for the Titan X Pascal on its launch date.

For those of you who has been preparing your cash for the Titan X Pascal, here's a leaked 3DMark Performance chart from videocardz.com that shows the performance difference between the Titan X Pascal with the currently available GTX 1060, GTX 1070 and GTX 1080.

According to the chart, the NVIDIA TITAN X Pascal yields around 1.3x performance of stock GTX 1080 and 1.13x of overclocked GTX 1080. It’s almost 1.5 times faster than GTX 1070 and 1.87x faster than overclocked GTX 1060.

Alleged Synthetic Benchmark of NVIDIA Pascal Titan X Surfaces

NVIDIA's Pascal Titan X launch is just around the corner and it seems that NVIDIA has started sending out the Pascal Titan X samples and some have already arrived in the hands of reviewers and relevant organization or individual. 

The alleged synthetic benchmark on Chiphell shows that the Pascal Titan X performs much better than the Maxwell Titan X. But, the difference in numbers isn't reflecting any of the gaming performance difference between the Maxwell Titan X and Pascal Titan X, but the synthetic CUDA-based software that uses different and more architecture optimized cuDNN4 and cuDNN5 libraries, which can be used in deep learning neural networks.

NVIDIA Titan X With Pascal GPU Unleashed - 60% Faster Than Previous Titan X, Available This August 2nd For $1200

If the GTX 1080 is the new king, this new Titan X with GP102 Pascal GPU will be the new emperor for consumer graphics. That's right folks, NVIDIA has officially announced their upcoming Pascal Titan X today and it will be available on August 2nd with the specifications that aren't exactly the same as what we've expected from the rumor. 

The Titan X GP102 GPU features 12 billion transistors that are almost the double of the transistors count of 7.2 billion transistors on the GTX 1080 GP104, higher performance with 11 TFLOPs compared to 9 TFLOPs on the GP104, more 3584 CUDA Cores clocked at 1417MHz and boost clock of 1531MHz that can easily overwhelm the GP104 with 2560 CUDA cores even if it comes with a higher clock speed of 1607MHz and boost clock of 1733MHz.

HBM2 isn't something that we can expect from the Pascal Titan X at the moment but the 12GB GDDR5X with 10 GB/s Memory Speed on a 384-bit bus and a total memory bandwidth of 480 GB/s that comes near to HBM1's memory bandwidth of 512 GB/s will still be able to deliver quite a monstrous performance.

With all that amount of performance, the GP102 Titan X requires a 6+8 pin power to run and features a total TDP of 250W.

Appearance wise, the Pascal Titan X will be having the same founders edition blower style cooler as both GTX 1070 and GTX 1080, except that it's in black. One of our reliable sources suggests that NVIDIA doesn't plan to bring the Pascal Titan X to its AiB partners, which means that it will only be available as a Founders Edition card that can only be purchased directly from NVIDIA's website at the price of $1200. 

NVIDIA To Launch GeForce GTX 1060 6GB On July 19th For $249

NVIDIA today announce the availability of its GeForce GTX 1060 on July 19th with 6GB variant to start at $249 for custom design from AiB partners and $299 for Founders Edition. 

As direct competitor to the AMD Radeon RX 480 that is currently the best value graphics card money can buy as claimed by many reviewers after its launch, the GP106 Pascal architecture based GPU features 1280 CUDA cores, 8000MHz GDDR5 memory on 192-bit bus, as well as GPU Base Clock of 1506 MHz that goes up to 1708 MHz via GPU Boost 3.0 technology as what NVIDIA has claimed, is as capable as a GeForce GTX 980 but sips only a mere 120W from a single 6-pin PCIe power connector. 

The GeForce GTX 1060 also boasts a 15% better performance on stock speed,  40% better power efficiency, and up to 25% better VR performance thanks to NVIDIA's Simultaneous Multi-Projection technology, seemingly better than the RX 480 in many ways except for its multi-GPU configuration. 

Pascal Architecture Based GeForce GTX Titan Features 50% Better Than GTX 1080 and 16GB HBM2 Memory

The GeForce GTX 1060 leaks and rumors has gotten quite a lot of attention for the past few days but it seems that NVIDIA doesn't plans to keep us all occupied on the GTX 1060 for long. A new Pascal architecture based GTX Titan GP100 / 102 core, loaded with HBM2 might be coming soon, with its rumored launching in Gamescom 2016 which will he held in Germany this coming August 2016. 

The Pascal GTX Titan packs a whopping total of 3840 CUDA cores and will feature 50% better performance over the GeForce GTX 1080 which is already 25~30% better than the previous GTX Titan X. What's more, the card will feature a 12 or 16GB HBM2 memory that will delivers 50% more bandwidth over the GDDR5X memory. With a amount of performance coming from the Pascal GTX Titan, we can expect 8+6 pin (300W) or 8+8 pin (375W) power connectors - Like it or hate it, this card is definitely a beast that's gonna put a giant hole in your wallet by the time it launched.
