Refreshed GeForce GTX 1070 with GDDR5X memory

Refreshed GeForce GTX 1070 with GDDR5X memory

Current Nvidia practices indicate two completely different approaches – either the company has problems creating affordable graphics cards based on the Turing architecture (I sincerely doubt), or the stocks of GDDR5X memory chips and cores from the previous generation models are simply too large to abandon them. Hence the refreshed GeForce GTX 1070 with GDDR5X memory.

I am sure that I do not have to remind the premiere of the new GTX 1060, which has a lot to do with the latest one. We are talking only about replacing the VRAM memory from the current GDDR5 to the more efficient GDDR5X from Micron, which has already resulted in the first model on the market. This time it was Zotac who presented the world as the first GTX 1070 AMP Extreme Core GDDR5X model, which you will find under the exact name ZT-P10700Q-10P. As in the case of the GTX 1060, the manufacturer opted for the traditional 8 GHz memory clock instead of 10 GHz, for which the GDDR5X was created. All this on an equally typical 256-bit bus.

The GP104 core itself was overclocked by Zotac to the base 1607 MHz and 1797 MHz in boost mode. This is by the way worse than the AMP Extreme model on the good old GDDR5, which was not only 8 MHz faster in boost mode, but also had memory overclocked to 8.2 GHz. In terms of performance, it promises to be something comparable to the GTX 1070 AMP Core.
