NVIDIA will launch a new high-end graphics card that will be slotted between the GeForce GTX 980 and the GeForce GTX TITAN-X, in its product stack.
The GeForce GTX 980 Ti, as it’s being called, will launch within the next couple of weeks, and will be based on the company’s GM200 silicon.
The GTX 980 Ti will feature fewer CUDA cores than the GeForce GTX TITAN-X, at 2,816.
NVIDIA gets that count by disabling 2 of the 24 SMM (streaming multiprocessor Maxwell) units on the GM200 silicon.
The texture memory unit (TMU) count will be proportionately lower, at 176 (compared to 192 on the GTX TITAN-X).
The ASIC bears the model number GM200-310.
The same 384-bit GDDR5 memory interface and possibly the same 250W TDP.
We know from other reports, that the GTX 980 Ti will feature 6 GB of memory (half of the TITAN-X)
The TDP is a very arbitrary number, and 250W shouldn’t surprise us. What also wouldn’t surprise us is NVIDIA reusing the PCB and NVTTM (NVIDIA Time-to-Market) cooler design from the GTX TITAN-X (and several older SKUs).
