AMD previously said that Polaris 10 and Polaris 11 chips will be targeted at notebooks, consoles, and the mainstream market. Given those characteristics, Guru3D believes that the GTX 1070 and GTX 1060 Ti will be positioned as direct competitors to AMD's first consumer-oriented iteration of its Polaris architecture. The pictured chip is accompanied by a set of Samsung GDDR5 chips, believed to comprise a total of 6GB of VRAM on a 192-bit bus.
Guru3D has taken a look at some images and numbers originating from a forum thread on Chinese site ChipHell which apparently depict the would-be GTX 1060 Ti GPU.
We wrote up some purported GTX 1080 die shots not long ago, and today it's time for the hypothetical GTX 1060 Ti. Since we're discussing rumors, we may as well ask the waiter for the table salt and go a little further. Going by that info, it seems pretty clear this teaser site is referring to the next generation of GeForces. A collective effort ensued and the community worked out Nvidia's puzzle, finding many references to Kepler and Fermi, among other names. How is this site related to Nvidia's Pascal architecture? Well, GamersNexus received a mysterious briefcase with imagery similar to the Power of 10 graphics. The countdown ends Friday, at which time these mysterious polygons will land. A mysterious new site called " Order of 10" has popped up, completet with a countdown timer and imagery of gray polygons heading towards Earth. Well, looks like the rumor mill may have gotten the June reveal date of Pascal-based gaming cards wrong.
