HWInfo Diagnostic tool adds new NVIDIA GPUs Support - Volta
Often a bit of naming leaks through software release info. A week or so ago you might have noticed, HWInfo was updated. And initially I missed the added info, but the tool is now actively listing two new NVIDIA GPU entries.
We all know that NVIDIA has something brewing in that kettle of theirs, we all know it will be the 11xx series (GTX 1160, 1170 and 1180), but no one really knows what GPU architecture it'll be based on, and kudos/cudas to NVIDIA for keeping that under wraps. It is expected to be Turing, but I will keep saying it, Turing never was listed in their roadmaps. The most logical thing for them to do would be a Pascal respin with GDDR6 memory, Turing with GDDR6 memory.
However and realistically I think this is the case, Turing simply also could be Volta stripped from the Tensor cores and thus GeForce GTX 11xx would be Volta based. Now Volta GPUs have been around for a while, just not in the consumer domain. This is what the entries in HWinfo spike my interests, as Malik added: Nvidia GV102- en GV104-GPUs. Expect announcements late August on the new card(s).

You currently have the best gpu around. Why so much disbelief and distrust against Nvidia for the new series? Is there any reason for it?
lol simple mathematics you pulled out of your ass .

Supposedly we should be able to play 4k 120hz 120fps with high settings before 2020.
If physics laws agree with Nvidia I cannot see that happening in time. That's what I believe.

2020 is two years away and you're talking about a product that's supposedly launching in the next several months on a process only slightly better than 16nm. Now obviously it's all conjecture at this point but it's going to be really difficult for Nvidia to squeeze 50%+ performance boost over a 1080Ti with a 300w TDP. The only way they can come close to that level of performance is if they ship something as large as a Titan V - but even with the tensor cores gated the V hits 300w mark and only manages 30-35% increase at 800mm2. I guess it's possible Nvidia pulls a rabbit out of it's hat and has some magical improvements we don't know about but nothing we've seen thus far indicates they do.
Honestly the more I read about the number of fairly large 7nm chips that start will start shipping this year the more I either think the 12nm rumor/leaks are fake or Nvidia is planning for this new series to be really short lived and may not even get a Ti variant. Why would you ship 500+mm2 cards to beat last generation models when you can wait a few months and ship 300mm2 ones? Doesn't make any sense to me.

1170 5% faster than 1080ti,
1180 25% faster than 1080ti
and 1180ti 55% faster than 1080ti.
Simple mathematics.
