Today, let's turn the clock back to November 2010 to reexamine the classic card emperor GeForce GTX 580 of the year - the last generation of NVIDIA's 40nm process flagship card.
NVIDIA earlier Fermi architecture due to both gaming and computing, combined with TSMC 40nm process reasons, the core area is too large, high power consumption, yield is low, the performance is also less than expected, GTX 480 rival HD 5870 abuse Not too light
However, just eight months later, the GTX 580 was born out of the way with the same process and architecture, with a performance increase of about 25%, power consumption reduction of at least 5% and load temperature reduction of 15%, a remarkable achievement , Also became the fastest single-core graphics.
GTX 580 is equipped with 512 stream processors, the core frequency of 772MHz, Shader frequency of 1544MHz, with 384-bit 1.5GB GDDR5 memory, the equivalent frequency of 4008MHz, the entire card power consumption of 244W.
Test platform using Core i7-7700K / Core i3-8100 processor, 16GB DDR4-2400 memory, Crucial MX500 SATA solid state drive.
First, the game performance test
Ultra-high-quality "Battlefield 1" directly crushed the GTX 580, frame rate less than 30FPS, but also slower than the HD 7950 more than 30%.
"War Dawn 3" average frame rate of 41FPS under the frame rate, but subject to 1.5GB memory, the lowest frame rate is miserable.
"Dust 4" quality clearance, very smooth.
"Glory battle soul" still make do, but occasionally Caton (video memory too little).
"Ghost action" even low-quality burst cylinder, and only about 30FPS.
Mass Effect: Andromeda in the quality is OK, has been relatively smooth.
Predation is not bad, but the texture is seriously lost and the picture is incomplete.
"Resident Evil 7" finally no longer vice squad leader, the average frame rate amazingly close to the GTX 1050 Ti, but the lowest frame rate is still low, can feel significant Caton.
Power is no exception, after all, is the product of the old times, and GTX 1050 with less than half the power consumption, performance can exceed 30%.
