The Kepler parts aren’t straight recycling of existing SKUs, however, as NVIDIA has a new feature that’s coming out with all ofthe GTX 800M parts: Battery Boost. One is that we don’t have any 800M hardware in hand for testing (yet – we should get a notebook in the near future) the second problem is that, as is typically the case, 800M will be a mix of both Kepler and Maxwell parts. Today’s launch of the 800M series will give us the first taste of what’s to come, but unfortunately there are two minor issues. That renewed focus on efficiency is nice and all on the desktop, but in my opinion where it’s really going to pay dividends is when we get the mobile SKUs. The result was roughly a doubling of performance per Watt, with the GTX 750 Ti being nearly twice as fast as the GTX 650 with only slightly higher power draw (and some of that most likely comes from the increased load on the rest of the system thanks to the higher frame rates). While the features may be largely the same, however, NVIDIA did come out with a renewed focus on efficiency.
Last month NVIDIA launched the first of many Maxwell parts to come with the desktop GTX 750 and GTX 750 Ti, which brought a new architecture to NVIDIA’s parts, but one that isn’t radically different from the previous generation’s Kepler.
