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...
Rumor: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1180 Expected in July? - 05/18/2018 08:06 AM
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...

AMD will have RDNA2 cards out this fall and they will be on enhanced 7nm ie not EUV. Just thought I would chime in since all of the 5nm talk. We don't even know if RDNA3 at end of 2021 will be on 5nm as all AMD will say right now is advanced node.

Poor Ampere.
It looks like yet another RADEON win. On the planet of Wet Dreams. Where physics is forbidden by law and all you need to design a top of the line GPU - is to be generally clueless while having an armchair

Is there any form of trustworthy comparison between TSMC's 7nm and Samsung's 10nm node?

RDNA2 only just competes with big turing.......

The source article says TSMC 7nm+ in this leak, either way.
But for memory, there is a bit of a conumdrum in the future. Capacity and interface bitdepth are tightly linked, and chip size dictates capacity.
2080 Ti was 11x 32-bit 1GB = 11GB at 352-bit. 12GB with a 12x32 interface would work, or 24GB, which would be a larger jump and drive up costs. Or they could make the interface bigger, but a full 512-bit memory interface for eg. 16x32 at 1GB each would be very costly and complex, and they haven't done such a wide interface in forever.
They can't mix chip sizes, as that ends up with a 970 situation.
Therefor... memory size scaling is problematic, as you lack intermediate steps, since chips are typically made in 2x steps. 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, not 1.5GB.
PS:
The memory interface on those console GPUs is freakin weird with different speeds for different areas. But it also appears to be both GPU and system memory, so its a very custom solution, and how they achieve 16GB without an expensive 512-bit bus.
