Our review of the GeForce GTX 1080 is LIVE NOW, so be sure you check that out before today's live stream!!
Get yourself ready, it’s time for another GeForce GTX live stream hosted by PC Perspective’s Ryan Shrout and NVIDIA’s Tom Petersen. The general details about consumer Pascal and the GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card are already official and based on the traffic to our stories and the response on Twitter and YouTube, there is more than a little pent-up excitement. .
On hand to talk about the new graphics card, answer questions about technologies in the GeForce family including Pascal, SLI, VR, Simultaneous Multi-Projection and more will be Tom Petersen, well known in our community. We have done quite a few awesome live steams with Tom in the past, check them out if you haven't already.

For Tom,
Why did Nvidia
For Tom,
Why did Nvidia decide to release the founders addition and what does it have to justify the 100 dollar price premium.
Thank You for your time.
Andrew
P.S. The reveal was awesome to watch and the technical difficulties were amusing. I hope you got to see the twitch chat log of people chanting TOM
With 3 displays &
With 3 displays & simultaneous multi-projection for perspective correction on the surround displays: How do you account for what angle the left & right displays are relative to the centre display? Is angle of perspective correction a tweakable setting?
Will the old SLI bridges
Will the old SLI bridges still work for 3-way and 4-way? If so, what will the impact on performance be if the new bridge is using teamed card edges?
I`m really disappointed at
I`m really disappointed at lack of good monitors at consumer market. Now pascal supporting HDR, WCG and high refresh rates with DP. Do you have any information at upcoming monitors witch wouldn`t cost 5000$, so we can fully enjoy new HDR content, or we have to buy TV(something like SUHD) and play on TV despite the high input of tvs.
question for tom so is this
question for tom so is this gpu just a die shrink of a maxwell gpu with high clocks?
So many nvidia shills and
So many nvidia shills and terfs in the comments, is it an easy way to make money?
Like another commenter asked,
Like another commenter asked, I am interested to know when we can start seeing displays that go beyond 4K/60 using the new display port standard?
Q. Can you verify that the
Q. Can you verify that the intro demo of the Founders 1080 was done with a stock card like those we can order on the 27th.
Q. was the intro demo overclocking accomplished with available software?
Q. did the intro demo card only have an 8-pin power connector?
Tom, how do you expect
Tom, how do you expect overclocking utilities will address the changes to overclocking in GPU boost 3.0
It would also be nice if Tom
It would also be nice if Tom could try to justify the Founder’s Edition marketing and pricing and causing confusing without properly explaining them. I feel like announcing a release date and an MSRP of $600 but only releasing a $700 Founder’s on that date is deceptive. When will $600 cards actually be available?
When will the 1060 or 1060 ti
When will the 1060 or 1060 ti series cards be launched? I know a precise date cannot be disclosed but as an aproximation it will be in the next months ‘soon’ or after christmas ‘soon’?
Tom, how is the asynchronous
Tom, how is the asynchronous compute managed in hardware differently in Pascal from Maxwell and why is it more efficient? Will Nvidia provide asynchronous compute support for Maxwell cards as well through drivers?
Thank you!
To upgrade from my 980Ti or
To upgrade from my 980Ti or not..that is the question.
I want that card soooooooo
I want that card soooooooo bad :’)
Can SLI-HB be accomplished
Can SLI-HB be accomplished using 2 older SLI bridges, or does it require a new SLI-HB bridge?
Tom, are there any new Gsync
Tom, are there any new Gsync features coming, maybe in relation to pascal? When HDR monitors eventually come out can we expect the GTX 1080 to support both Gsync and HDR simultaneously?
Will the software features be
Will the software features be brought down to 9xx cards?
Will reference cards be made
Will reference cards be made available for purchase on the retail market?
Question for Tom: How is
Question for Tom: How is this new audio tech from Nvidia different from AMD’s “True Audio”?
Tom, can you explain how
Tom, can you explain how Simultaneous Multi-Projection will work for a curved (21:9) single screen? I understand how it works in VR and for multi screen surround but I don’t understand how it can work for a curved single screen.
