Chinese company allegedly developing a GTX 1080-class GPU with faster clocks, PCIe 4.0, and high bandwidth HBM memory

[Redaktion]

Chinese GPU maker Jingia Micro is developing a new GPU that comes close to rivaling the NVIDIA GTX 1080, at least on paper. The JM9271 offers fast clocks, PCIe 4.0, HBM memory, and a 200W TDP. Jingjia's focus seems to be on the specialized military applications market at the moment, but support for DirectX 12 and Vulkan APIs could make it potentially suitable for gaming.

"A" for effort but its nothing that special.

The KX-6000 CPU for example needs 8 cores to equal i5-7400. That means it performs about half at single thread.

Know what cheap Intel CPU performs better than that? Goldmont Plus. It's  used in the Pentium Silver N5000.

For the GPU, drivers are half of the equation. Don't expect them to be in an acceptable state for a long, long time. For performance, AMD falls behind Nvidia at the same Flops rating, and need HBM2 memory just so they are not completely embarassed on the power efficiency front.

Never heard of these people before.

The problem with making GPUs for new market players was never the "make" part - it's the patents for all viable graphics processing algorithms.

But the puny patents don't seem to bother our chinese friends, especially if the GPU is for the internal market only.

Noob question but still... could it even boot into Windows (ANY version or variant) without DirectX support?

Yeah, what do you think keeps safe mode running  ;)
