    I always wind up waiting forever.....

  • @DrDave

    What is 2600 Super?

    New cards will be certainly faster, but you are little soon, as no onw knows how good and that will be prices.

  • I was thinking of upgrading to 2600 super--will the Amperes be better?

    Issue is with 11GB memory.

    Release date will be August 31.

    Nvidia intent to set new price records and declare that GeForce RTX 3070 and lower end 16Gb and smaller RAM cards will remain targeted at usual mass gaming customers. More high end cards will be promoted differently.

  • GA102, 3080 TI

    • 8nm Samsung process
    • 3 fan boards
    • 12pin proprietary NVideo connector (manufacturers need to pay royalties)
    • 300 watts normal consumption
    • almost all cards will have 400-450 watts real consumption for advanced versions
    • Only 12Gb of GDDR RAM remains (18 Gbit/sec)
    • Nvidia don't want to provide more RAM as it will allow firms to buy cheaper consumer cards for raytracing and NN applications
    • 5376 CUDA cores
    • 2-2.2Ghz frequencies
    • RT cores are 3-4 times improved

    In 2021 we will see "Special" versions made on TSMC if all goes normal, they will be around 5-7% faster.

    RTX 3050 also will come, 128bit memory and most probably only 4-6GB RAM.

  • Another interesting info

    image

    Nvidia try to make Samsung 8nm work for almost 2 years now.

    We can expect new lineup to be most problematic in recent Nvidia history.

    As they tried to use TSMC AMD blocked the contract.

  • Traversal co-processor that’s the name !!!

  • There are rumors saying that it will have a second GPU accelerator in tht second fan. Only tensor core

    Cooler uses 4 heatpipes.

    Rumors are that GPU will also use very dynamic frequency regulation, as card can have big issues keeping 320-350w consumption long term, so GPu can start behaving more like modern CPUs with short time bursts and instant frequency drop.

    Present rumors are that cooling design is product of management and marketing departments, engineers had been told to shut up.

    In reality all good GPU cards manufacturers will offer water block based versions as best performing, air cards themselfs will be very long 3 deep biig coolers.

  • Rumored initial lineup

    image

    Look at TDP figures.

    It is already clear that thermal transfer limits the GPU capabilities and with move to finer 5nm or even 3nm it'll become much worse (as leaks also will rise).

    In 2-3 years we'll see big tragedy on GPU market.

    Rumored prices will be +25-35% compared to present RTX lineup, performance will be +20-25%.
