Today, at an event in California, Nvidia has officially unveiled the first full-fat Maxwell chip: The GM204. This chip will power both the Nvidia GTX 970 and GTX 980, both of which should be available to buy from your favorite component store today. The GM204 is an utterly monstrous chip, comprising 5.2 billion transistors, 2048 CUDA cores spread across 16 streaming multiprocessors (SMs), 64 ROPs, and a massive 2MB L2 cache. That's not the most impressive thing, though: the GTX 980, powered by the GM204 chip, has a TDP of just 165W -- down from 250W for the previous flagship, the GTX 780.
