China Figures Out How to Build a Graphics Card That Can Compete with NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 1080

China’s first graphics card, the P106-100, is a low-cost, low-power competitor to NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 1080. It will be interesting to see how it performs in the market and what impact it has on NVIDIA.

China has developed a graphics card that is the equivalent of NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 1080. The jingjia micro is said to be able to outperform the Nvidia GPU by 8 times.

For most fans, NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 1080 is old news, but not in China. Jingjia Micro (Jingjiawei), a Chinese firm, is said to have achieved a breakthrough by developing a graphics card that can compete with the green team’s Pascal flagship and other cards like AMD’s Radeon RX Vega 64.

Jingjia Micro’s JM9271 is a graphics card with 8 TFLOPs of FP32 performance, a boost clock rate of over 1,800 MHz, 16 GB of HBM memory, and a memory bandwidth of 512 GB/s that is expected to be released shortly. HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.3 are among the output choices, and the TDP is stated as 200 watts.

The Jingjia Micro JM9271 is complemented by the JM9231, a less powerful graphics card. The JM9231 has 2 TFLOPs of FP32 performance, a boost clock rate of over 1,500 MHz, 8 GB of GDDR5 memory, and a memory bandwidth of 256 GB/s, making it comparable to the GeForce GTX 1050. It has the same output choices as the JM9271, but with a TDP of just 150 watts.

[…] According to Jingjia Micro, the two graphics cards are still in the early phases of development, and additional testing is required before the firm can begin trial production runs. Efficiency isn’t one of these’s strong suits, but performance seems promising if it’s comparable — at least on paper — to GPUs from many years ago that are still competent, like in the case of the GTX 1080. There’s also no news on whether the JM9231 and JM9271 cards will support DirectX or the Vulkan API, so it’s conceivable they’ll never get it into a gaming PC.
