The AIDA64 Engineer GPU FPS results show a slightly different performance split with the Single/Double-Precision. The EVGA Nvidia GTX 1080 Founders Edition scores first place in the Single-Precision results and this time a healthy second place in the Double-Precision result.
There’s a significant difference between the MSI GTX 970 GAMING Twin Frozr V and the GTX 1080, four times a difference.
Unigine Heaven shows fantastic performance. We use the Extreme preset for all of the Unigine Heaven tests we run, so all cards do well, but the GTX 1080 is pretty much double the performance of the MSI GTX 970 GAMING Twin Frozr V, which should be acknowledged. Unigine Heaven is an industry standard benchmark and though synthetic, it is a rendered graphical test, which you can also replicate yourself. Test your current set up and see how you compare.

Nvidia may have dropped the ball a little with the release drivers, and the subsequent drivers that game to fix the issues, but there's no doubt, the Nvidia GTX 1080 Founders Edition is a stellar performance, and the VGA GTX 1080 Founders Edition exercises the GPU core perfectly.
