NVIDIA Teases Something New, Announcement on April 29th

NVIDIA has been on a roll with product launches lately, with the new GTX 1080 Ti and Titan Xp launches, and it would seem the company isn't putting on the brakes just yet. NVIDIA Italy, through its Facebook page, has put up a teaser which points towards April 29th as being the day of a new showcase or announcement - the nature of which is as yet unclear. However, I think it's safe to rule out a new high-end GPU (rest easy, early Titan Xp users, it's unlikely NVIDIA would supersede their highest-performance GPU so soon after launch... Again.)

A Volta announcement is unlikely at this time, at least on the consumer side of the equation; however, the door is open towards the workstation and server side of the equation. NVIDIA does have other lines of consumer products that aren't graphics cards, though, so a Shield announcement, or even a new materialization of the company's expertise in a new product, are possible.

I thought it might be the launch of the 11gbps memory GTX 1080, but it seems not.

Any idea when these come out?

Actually my internal sources are saying that they will release a GTX 1080 Tip at $699. It will be a slightly cut down Titan Xp with 11 GB RAM. Get hyped!!!111oneone!

I hope its a new Shield tablet. I'm in the market for a 7-8 inch tablet that has a little bit of graphical power and would like to try out Nvidia's Gamestream.

They were sleeping at the wheel like intel (really just too cheap, b/c they don't need to make it to maximize profit).

Now, it's gonna be, "Look at us, ignore Vega!"

Just the Tip? Not the whole thing?

this might be a new TITAN card to catch the segment of people willing to pay almost anything for the highest performer (and 1080Ti is just too cheap to NVIDIA's taste (like it or not))

NVIDIA drivers don't tend to fuck up your system. They just work lazily and half-assed like all drivers these days.
