New GPU launches are always fascinating to me, I'm curious to see what will they offer.
Next Generation x80 GPUs are always faster than the previous generation's TI cards with upwards of 20% performance gains, the next x80 could possibly have 16GB of ram unless it's on a 256 bit memory bus. While the next x80 Ti could potentially have 24GB of ram assuming it's on a 384 bit memory bus.
The performance improvement from the stock (reference) GTX 980 Ti to GTX 1080 was an increase of around 30-40% IIRC, although the Maxwell GPUs have renowned overclocking headroom which their Pascal successors don't quite share. Maxwell GPUs were often capable of overclocking 20% higher than their factory clocks if they don't already have a high overclock already. I was able to overclock my GTX 970 +20% higher than it's stock clocks.
The die shrink appeared to have a fairly significant impact upon Pascal which helped it obtain higher clocks, I'm curious to see what NVIDIA do with their next generation GPUs, in terms of core counts and clock-speeds, among other things.
Edit - Expanded post, corrected mistake and made it clearer.
