NVIDIA Readying GeForce RTX 2080 Ti SUPER After All?
NVIDIA could launch a "GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Super" after all, if a tweet from kopite7kimi, an enthusiast with a fairly high hit-rate with NVIDIA rumors is to be believed. The purported SKU could be faster than the RTX 2080 Ti, and yet be somehow differentiated from the TITAN RTX. For starters, NVIDIA could enable all 4,608 CUDA cores, 576 tensor cores, and 72 RT cores, along with 288 TMUs and 96 ROPs. Compared to the current RTX 2080 Ti, the Super could get faster 16 Gbps GDDR6 memory.
It's possible that NVIDIA won't change the 352-bit memory bus width or 11 GB memory amount, as those would be the only things stopping the card from cannibalizing the TITAN RTX, which has the chip's full 384-bit memory bus width, and 24 GB of memory. Interestingly, at 16 Gbps with a 352-bit memory bus width, the RTX 2080 Ti Super would have 704 GB/s of memory bandwidth, which is higher than the 672 GB/s of the TITAN RTX, with its 14 Gbps memory clock. These design choices would ensure NVIDIA has a sufficiently faster product than the RTX 2080 Ti, without an increase in BOM, provided it has enough perfectly-functional "TU102" inventory to go around. There's no word on availability, although WCCFTech predicts a CES 2020 unveiling.

They're providing the fastest gaming GPU at particular moment.
Why is that "milking" and what does it have to do with Ampere which is a distant future?
HDMI 2.1 FEATURES is not the same as having the bandwidth that 4K 120Hz+ needs. many GPUs and TVs have HDMI 2.1 features, doesn't mean it can do the high resolution with high refresh rate over HDMI 2.0 connections. I can't believe how many people wrongly connect these things
I mean, sure Zen2 is significantly better than Zen, so there's no reason RDNA2 won't be significantly better than RDNA. But neither is "a full new design", let's choose our words more carefully, shall we?
also i don't really care... which is also how forums work.
No CEO ever took the stage to tell us: our upcoming product will be a a tweaked current product on a slightly better production node. Their presentations always include "radically new design", "unprecedented performance", "designed for the next gen" and other terms that will win you a bullshit bingo in no time. That makes me pretty sure Ms Su has said the same thing about RDNA2. People taking said statements at face value, that's another story.
Hook, line, and sinker, some. :)
AMD always has something fantastic up its sleeve, the problem is that the sleeve is so long that we wait, we wait, we wait...
but your right, we wait and wait and wait. I'm glad I waited.
Most AMD fanboys used Intel CPUs for better part of the last decade, but activated once Zen came out.
Being a fan of AMD (or just anti Intel) is one thing, but having a usable PC is important as well. :)
Anyway, since you've already admitted that you don't really care what we think about your posts, there's likely no reason for you to tell the truth in them. You don't care. You might as well be making everything up. :)So, they could basically go on vacation and keep selling 2080Ti until AMD announces something that beats it.
Instead they launch a new card that offers even more performance.
How exactly is that bad in any way? Shouldn't we praise this?
neat, everything I type is made up. cool line of logic you have there. highly intelligent.
