This release is prolly for Volta implementation, nvidia like to give fresh and working driver with a released new card. Every one speak about AMD vegas i think nvidia will do better, less power / more efficienty / more hashrate

whats timing for these new Volta? I could not find anything.

2018, so don't worry about it now, but it's true that volta will be a monster, nothing like the change from maxwell to pascal

Apparently no speed increase came out of it for mining and it can be even slower, as per Epsylon3:

yes... sm_61 is an emulation of sm_60 P100 fp16 stuff, and when used (look like it is sometimes) its slower than normal ops generated for sm_5x ... So nothing changed for the GTX (and mining cards) about that since CUDA 8

Man, thats a bummer. I read the title for this post and got all excited haha. Hopefully we will see SOME increase... once its released to the public.
