With all that is going on in the world, it seems that NVIDIA is adapting as well. The Ampera GPU based consumer products would now be announced in September. Originally is was the plan to share detail on the new architecture during the postponed GDC.

With Computex postponed, and (for now) scheduled and moved towards September Nvidia would join up to announce Ampere. It would already be an introduction to that, as it had previously done with Turing. According to the source (tweak town), the company would first launch a business Quadro video card, with the RTX 3000 series for gamers and consumers shortly following later in the year.

For the time being, however, this is bigtime speculation.

There's no reason for NVidia to get their hands on samples of the new XBox or PS, since they're not involved in the development of either console nor any software that will run on either console.

Same way as people with no special resources to use for obtaining samples get their hands on unreleased GPUs/CPUs/Consoles?
I am pretty sure, that in case like this following applies: "Where there's a will, there's a way."

I keep looking at prices for RTX 2060 Super, RX 5700XT, RTX 2070 Super .... but unfortunately none of them are enticing enough to replace my GTX 1080.

Both 2060 S and 5700 XT are "somewhat" cheaper, but they barely beat GTX 1080 by a few percent in most older games, and only really new games with engines designed for the new tech show 20%+ better performance.

2070 S is indeed faster in all areas, so it is an actual upgrade, but the cheapest here is 520 Euro, with the large majority of models over 550. It feels like a lot of money for not a that much extra performance (best case scenario 40%).

All that while the "-80" class GeForce cards are way out of my "acceptable" price range...

So really hoping the new gen comes this year with better performance/$, because my "old" 1080 is starting to get physically tired (noisy VRMs and not so good anymore fans). If it breaks completely before 3000 series or new Navi, I'll have to buy one of these overpriced cards that exist now... :-(
