With specifications and benchmarks
The first pictures of a Galaxy-branded Geforce GTX 970 have come up online. In addition to pictures, we now have some of the first confirmation regarding the specifications as well as some early benchmarks of the upcoming Nvidia Geforce GTX 970 graphics card.
As you can see from the picture below, leaked on Chinese site and picked up by Videocardz.com, the Galaxy GTX 970 GC looks identical to the earlier released Galaxy GTX 760, which is understandable considering that GM204 and GK104 GPUs are pin-identical and Nvidia AIC partners will be able to do custom graphics cards from day one, at least when it comes to the GTX 970. The same thing might not happen with the GTX 980 as, according to our sources, custom GTX 980 versions will come at a later date.
The Galaxy GTX 970 GC features 8+6-pin PCI-Express power connectors which are most likely placed in order to cover the factory-overclock as well as give additional overclocking headroom, while most other GTX 970, or should we say standard GTX 970, graphics cards will only need two 6-pin PCI-Express power connectors, the pictured Galaxy GTX 970 GC features two DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort outputs.
Based on the upcoming GM204 Maxwell GPU, and according to the both early GPU-Z information, the GTX 970 should end up with 1664 CUDA cores, 138 TMUs, 32 ROPs, 256-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface and 4GB of GDDR5 memory. The pictured Galaxy GTX 970 GC appers to be a factory-overclocked model working at 1051MHz for the base GPU clock 1103MHz base and 1203MHz GPU Boost clocks while the reference model should end up with 1051MHz GPU base and 1178MHz GPU Boost clocks. The memory on the Galaxy GTX 970 GC was overclocked to 7.2GHz while on the reference version the memory should end up at 7.0GHz.
The source from which the first pictures actually come managed also to run the Galaxy GTX 970 GC through 3DMark 11 Extreme Preset benchmark where the graphics card managed to get X3963 points, placing it between the GTX 780 and the GTX 780 Ti.
We are just a few days away from the official launch of Nvidia's new Maxwell GPUs and the GTX 970 and GTX 980 graphics cards so we will sure see more and more of these leaks.
