Today, Nvidia is unveiling the GTX 980M and GTX 970M — the first high-end mobile parts based on the new GM204 Maxwell GPU core. While Maxwell’s awesome power efficiency is certainly a nice quality for desktop PCs, higher efficiency and lower TDPs truly come into their own when mobile form factors with smaller thermal envelopes are considered.
With the Maxwell-based mobile GPUs, Nvidia is claiming that the 980M now has 75% the performance of its desktop counterpart — meaning there are now laptops that are truly capable of high-fps 1080p gaming. Nvidia even says the GTX 980M and 970M are capable of playing “most games” at 2560×1440 with Ultra settings — but we’d like to actually see that in practice.
