RUMOR: NVIDIA to announce the GeForce RTX 3000 in August
According to the latest leaked gossip (and it is just that), NVIDIA would now be launching its new GeForce RTX 3000 at the end of August so that its partners can display their custom models at Computex 2020, which will finally take place from September 28 to 30.
Of course it remains SUPER unsure if Computex will open up at all. The company is expected to launch Tesla and Quadro models first, based on the Ampere architecture. We have already seen leaks with up to 8192 Cuda Cores and 48GB of HBM2E memory.
For gaming, line rumors indicate that GeForce RTX 3080 Ti would get 5376 Cuda Cores, a 384-bit memory bus, 12GB of VRAM offering an estimated 40% performance increase over RTX 2080 Ti. The RTX 3080 could feature 3840 Cuda Cores, 320-bit bus, 10GB ram, 10% better performance than the RTX 2080 Ti. It will be interesting to see if this information ends up being true, or ends up being false rumors.
Rumor: NVIDIA GeForce Ampere to be fabbed at 10nm, all cards RTX ? - 03/12/2020 05:42 PM
We'll probably go back and forth a bit when it comes to the topic of Ampere until NVIDIA lifts all mystery, expected was that NVIDIA's upcoming GPUs would be fabbed at 7nm. However, that fabrication...
Rumor: NVIDIA Ampere GeForce RTX 3070 and RTX 3080 specs surface - 01/20/2020 01:04 PM
It has been a crazy year, lots of leaks and info mostly coming through unknown Twitter accounts. Today we can add to that as alleged specifications of the GeForce RTX 3070 and RTX 3080 have surfaced....
Rumor: Nvidia Reportedly To Acquire Mellanox For $7B - 03/11/2019 08:56 AM
And let me state, this is a very solid rumor. Nvidia would have purchased the American company Mellanox Technologies, the manufacturer of InfiniBand and Ethernet network equipment. Reportedly, Nvidia...

A new generation of graphics cards from Nvidia would become available in July, according to close-lipped sources from Tom's Hardware. The next-gen GPUs would be based on the Turing platform, but de...
Rumor: Nvidia Ampere might launch as GeForce GTX 2070 and 2080 on April 12th - 02/09/2018 04:07 PM
It's been silent with new graphics card releases from Nvidia. We've mentioned it a couple of times already, we really do not expect Volta with HBM2 to reach consumer grade graphics anytime soon. The...

I just want to point out that the new info says nothing about the configuration of the cards. The 10nm/12GB stuff is all still from random twitter guy. The new leak doesn't confirm that or even mention it:
https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2020-03-25/nvidia-s-next-generation-chips-may-be-biggest-pleasant-surprise
Should also point out that somehow Tweaktown took that article and turned it into a source for this:
https://www.tweaktown.com/news/71467/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3080-august-2020-reveal-launch-at-computex/index.html
Which blows my mind.
Isnt that little underwhelming compared to first leaks? 10nm chip with 12gb vram and probably subpar raytracing performance once again (no mention of rt cares).
By that time AMD will have desktop 5nm Rdna2 gpus with 16gb vram (looking at new gen rdna1.5 consoles) Tide can change right there.
Where do you come up with this stuff? AMD itself is calling the consoles GPU architecture RDNA2. 5nm isn't even in mass production yet and you think AMD is going to have 300+mm2 GPUs shipping on it by September? AMD has slides that say it's on 7nm from 20 days ago:

So where is your source for 5nm and consoles being 1.5 and a new architecture coming out for desktop?
How is 5376 cores vs the 2080ti 4352 cores a 40% increase ?
more like 25% at top with the rest of the specs being pretty similar.
Really eager to see benchmark but i doubt will be a huge gap, more like 1080ti vs 2080ti.
Pricing is whats left to know
Everything is what's left to know because citing core and spec counts from random twitter people is not knowing anything.

Optimizations. You can't just look at the number of cores and such.

I personally hope the rumour is false, was really hoping for a bigger jump in performance, more in line with 60-80% boost. Though its curious why there is an 8k core model, but the 3080ti is only meant to be 5k cores, they have never had that big of a gap between the titan series and XX80TI series. Part of me wonders if the 5376 is actually for the 3080 non-ti version, though maybe that's just me hoping for a bigger model
