New Date for Postponed NVIDIA GTC 2020 Keynote Under "Get AMPED" Teaser: May 14th

NVIDIA has announced that their annual GTC (Graphics Technology Conference) keynote will be held on May 14th, via a fully online distribution through YouTube set for 6 a.m. PST. Originally canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, NVIDIA planned to make a digital-only event covering GTC on the same day of March 23rd, but elected to postpone it since "there were no announcements that were too critical not to be able to be told at a later time". The "Get AMPED" catchphrase does seem to point to some Ampere announcements, though, and the entire PC enthusiast community very much thinks that is one critical announcement.

The GTC 2020 note will be a recorded announcement led by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang. The leather jacket-toting CEO will highlight the company's latest innovations in AI, high performance computing, data science, autonomous machines, healthcare and graphics during the recorded keynote, which will be made available, on demand, on YouTube. Starting on May 19th, though, the graphics technology event will continue via live webinars, demos, and recorded talks discussing the very latest in AI, HPC, data science, graphics, and more.

Ampere is compute, like CDNA and after tesla. Not for PCs

Yeah, 8 core 16 thread 15w chip that makes desktop CPUs sweat and beats some discrete mobile GPUs is totally uninteresting.
Let alone RDNA2.

Could just have some NVIDIA employees in the audience. 6ft apart of course.

Yeah, it largely is (15w mobile part being uninteresting that is) I am much more interested in desktop GPUs. I don't care who the manufacturer is but I am buying one this year.

Well. 12nm wasnt exactly a big move forward. The only reason Turing was and is viable is because AMD was so far behind. Even with their strong RDNA release they did not catch up. 16nm delivered... 12nm was a small refinement. So yes I def hope Nvidia delivers again with 7nm as they did with Pascal.

Like everyone else!

I wonder if ampre will be mentioned in detail...

So behind while even being ahead on process node... scary. I hope RDNA2 competes with at least a 2080ti with similar all around (includes RT) performance and ballpark power use.

Edit: Nvidia threads feel like rain and worms...doesnt it? Sure brings out the haters, lol.

When AMD comes with RDNA2? That is much more interesting.
