New Rumors: GeForce GTX 1180, 2080

New Rumors: GeForce GTX 1180, 2080

It has been a long time and a long road of rumors, however, the rumors now slowly seem to be solidifying. Nvidia would be briefing engineering employees for a new graphics card. The graphics card series would be Turing.

The name Turing has come up a couple of times already, Reuters at one point mentioned an NVIDIA GPU called Turing, they tagged it as a gamers card, which really contradicted with the name Turing. Turing would be a name better suited to AI and HPC products (Turing test for artificial intelligence). As to what it precisely is, nobody outside the ring of insiders really knows. Most of us expect a Pascal respin with GDDR6 memory though. As to what it's called, GeForce GTX 1180, 2080 we can only guess.

The latest rumor is that Nvidia would be training development and engineering departments, which really is all the news there is today. The rumor comes from Tom's Hardware Germany where they have "unofficially learned from some board partners that Nvidia has already started training the relevant employees from the development departments."

The piece they wrote contains a lot of usage of the word 'if'. Media also claim that a BoM (Bill of materials needed to produce these cards) would have been released, however, if you read the piece article a bit more clearly, it's merely based on an assumption. 

"If you follow the 3-month rule, the first board partner cards should appear on the market in late August or early September. However, some of the partners are now expecting a shift of at least two weeks, so that September seems rather plausible"

Well, at least we know something is brewing in that kettle.

 

BOM releaseBill Of Materials Releasebegin
EVT Engineering Validation Test 1-2 weeks
DVT Design Validation Test 2 weeks
WS Working sample 1-2 weeks
EMI Test Electromagnetic Interference Test less than a week
PVT Production Validation Test 2-3 weeks
PVT sorting
PPBIOS Final BIOS a few days
Ramp & MP Mass production and shipping a few days

sick of these rumors, CEO said not for a long time. until I see a nvidia talking head with planned dates I am not holding my breath for a 1180 mass release until 2019. maybe they will have a limited release from nvidia store in late 2018 like Volta. remember 2017 rumors, they had 1180 debuting in January 2018 LMAO.

TSMC can do it, AMD has huge 7nm dies working, Nvidia's new chips will be small, which is much easier - higher yields.

I would not be surprised if Nvidia milked with a 12nm release before 7nm tho. They can do whatever they want with no competition.

2 weeks ago people said that there were zero chance of new GPU's this year. Now Nvidia prepares new cards with AIB partners. I guess we'll see some specs soon.
nVidia does not need 7nm with current GPUs. On 7nm, they will not clock significantly better than they do now. They will only cost more and eat less.
So, why should nVidia pay more for GPUs saving client's cash on electricity bill? Maybe for minors, they sure love performance/watt ratio?

1080 was such a big leap over the 980. Most of us could go from using two cards in an SLI setup to one card for a 1440p monitor.

That's probably why Nvidia has taken a while getting to the next generation. They just haven't had to and I'm not sure the demand is there yet. Are there any games by which you can't exceed 60fps on a 1440p monitor at full details with a GTX 1080? If there is something, is it worth playing?

The idea is cool to run everything at my monitor's 144Hz with 144 fps in G-sync, but once you get up past around 90Hz/90 fps, it's hard to tell a difference.

4K users demand more than what a 1080Ti offers.

There aren't that many... yet.
