The aftermath of the NVIDIA breach is slowly disclosing more and more info about pending products. Yesterday an older version of DLSS source code was already spotted, new GPU architectures have been confirmed as in Blackwell, Hopper and Ada Lovelace. And today the number of streaming multiprocessors of Ampere successors.



Twitter user La Frite David, has reviewed the data that has leaked thus far, and it specifies the number of streaming multiprocessors in the Ampere successors, among other things. This allows the number of shader cores to be calculated. The highest model, AD102, is expected to have up to 144 SMS or 18,432 cores, which corresponds to a claim made by the end of 2020. Furthermore, AD103, AD104, AD106, and AD107 are examined, with their claimed specifications listed below.

103S 60 7.680 103 84 10.752
104 48 6.144 104 60 7.680
106 30 3.840 106 36 4.608
107 20 2.560 107 24 3.072

The hacking team now threatened to leak all data if Nvidia does not remove the hash rate restriction on RTX 30-series LHR devices. Also, they're advancing and are demanding that Nvidia totally open-sources its GPU drivers for Windows, macOS, and Linux. If the corporation violates this, Lapsus$ will publish not only chipset data but also information about the present and forthcoming GPUs.
