NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 DirectX 12 Benchmarks in Ashes of The Singularity Revealed - Async Compute Performance Analyzed

The outset benchmarks of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 in DirectX 12 enabled Ashes of The Singularity have been revealed. Establish in the benchmarks database are several listings of the GeForce GTX 1080 which was internally tested in the AAA title that uses several DirectX 12 technologies such as Asynchronous Compute and Multi-GPU adapter to offer the best graphics performance on the PC platform.

NVIDIA officially states that the GeForce GTX 1080 comes with new asynchronous compute advances!

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Benched in DirectX 12 With Async Compute - Shows Big Gains Over Current Cards

The GeForce GTX 1080 was tested internally by NVIDIA hence the performance is expected to differ in the terminal performance reviews we get to come across side by side calendar week. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 was appear two days agone at DreamHack in Austin where NVIDIA gathered a huge audience for the unveiling of their side by side generation Pascal based graphics cards. We have covered all the aspects of the cards such specifications, prices and performance numbers (Official NVIDIA Slides) however people want to know more than most the performance of these cards then allow'south become straight to information technology.

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 features a new GPU and Libation Design.

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 tested in the Ashes of The Singularity is likely to be one of the reference variants nosotros saw at the launch. Known every bit the Founders Edition, the card packs a whole lot of overclocking options with a beautiful libation just comes at a rather high cost point. NVIDIA is asking $100 more for their reference GeForce GTX 1080 model while the official MSRP is set up at $599 US and then expect AIBs to use that as a baseline for their new cards.

Pascal is NVIDIA's most advanced architecture to date with over two Billion dollars spent in R&D!

Ashes of The Singularity is one of the latest launches of 2022 and was actually the starting time title to feature support for DirectX 12 API. NVIDIA had some trouble getting their cards performing well in this criterion while AMD cards showed massive performance increases when switching to DirectX 12 thanks to the Asynchronous difficult ware bachelor on the GCN architecture. With Pascal, NVIDIA has officially stated that their GeForce GTX 1080 and GeForce GTX 1070 cards would be capable to exercise Asynchronous Compute which indicates that NVIDIA volition finally exist getting the same functioning advantage in titles that support Async every bit their Radeon counterparts.

We have yet to run across a general comparison between Async and Non-Async performance numbers on the GeForce Pascal cards but what nosotros tin show you correct now are probably the offset proper benchmarks of the GTX 1080 in DirectX 12. The benchmarks can exist seen beneath:

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Benchmarks (Crazy Settings @ 1080P):

On crazy settings, a single GeForce GTX 1080 puts upwards performance on par with dual GTX 980s. Now the way we are comparing these numbers are using the aforementioned test setups, same game version and same API version to make it off-white. The reason for using the aforementioned game version is because the cards show large variance in graphics functioning of different versions hence it's all-time to use the same version and resolution for comparison. You lot tin come across the results for yourself which indicate a large gain for the GeForce GTX 1080 but nosotros will nevertheless look for the terminal operation reviews to verify these gains.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Benchmarks (Extreme Settings @ 1080P):

On Extreme settings, the GeForce GTX 1080 scores 7200 points with an boilerplate FPS of 74 whereas AMD'southward top dog, the Radeon Pro Duo scores 7300 points with an average FPS of 75. Overclocked Fury X and GTX 980 TI do scores of effectually 1000 points lower than the GeForce GTX 1080 with averages in the 60ish range. The GTX 1080 indicates that it has decent punch and the 8 GB of VRAM will help information technology retain the functioning atomic number 82 on college resolutions.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Benchmarks (High Settings @ 1080P):

Lastly, we have the High settings where the GPU is once once again cervix-to-cervix with a Radeon Pro Duo. The GTX 1080 scores 8900 points with 90 FPS while the Pro Duo scores 9000 points with 91 FPS. Other AMD GPUs such as the Radeon R9 Fury X and Radeon R9 390X are only able to achieve results close to the GTX 1080 and Pro Duo in multi-GPU configurations. A highly overclocked GTX 980 TI achieves 8000 points with an average of 80 FPS which is still 1000 points lower than the GTX 1080.

Overall, nosotros can note that the GeForce GTX 1080 brings gains in a title that heavily relies on Asynchronous compute as seen in early on testing. Whether it is the beast power of the GTX 1080 that is the reason for such higher performance compared to electric current cards or support of Async compute on hardware level.

We tin can't really tell for sure but nosotros do know that NVIDIA's CEO officially stated that the card is much faster than the Titan X and a lot faster than two 980s in SLI. That means the GeForce GTX 1080 would pack a lot of dial in games and VR experiences. Expect reviews to clear upwards the operation metrics of NVIDIA's GeForce Pascal lineup on 17th May 2022. Stay tuned for more info!
