NVIDIA Blackwell RTX and AI Features Leaked by Inno3D
NVIDIA's RTX 5000 series GPU hardware has been leaked repeatedly in the weeks and months leading up to CES 2025, with previous leaks tipping significant updates for the RTX 5070 Ti in the VRAM department. Now, Inno3D is apparently hinting that the RTX 5000 series will also introduce updated machine learning and AI tools to NVIDIA's GPU line-up. An official CES 2025 teaser published by Inno3D, titled "Inno3D At CES 2025, See You In Las Vegas!" makes mention of potential updates to NVIDIA's AI acceleration suite for both gaming and productivity.
The Inno3D teaser specifically points out "Advanced DLSS Technology," "Enhanced Ray Tracing" with new RT cores, "better integration of AI in gaming and content creation," "AI-Enhanced Power Efficiency," AI-powered upscaling tech for content creators, and optimizations for generative AI tasks. All of this sounds like it builds off of previous NVIDIA technology, like RTX Video Super Resolution, although the mention of content creation suggests that it will be more capable than previous efforts, which were seemingly mostly consumer-focussed. Of course, improved RT cores in the new RTX 5000 GPUs is also expected, although it will seemingly be the first time NVIDIA will use AI to enhance power draw, suggesting that the CES announcement will come with new features for the NVIDIA App. The real standout feature, though, are called "Neural Rendering" and "Advanced DLSS," both of which are new nomenclatures. Of course, Advanced DLSS may simply be Inno3D marketing copy, but Neural Rendering suggests that NVIDIA will "Revolutionize how graphics are processed and displayed," which is about as vague as one could be.Just based on the information Inno3D has revealed, we can speculate that there will be a new DLSS technology, perhaps DLSS 4. As for Neural Rendering, NVIDIA has a page detailing research it has done relating to new methods of AI-generated textures, shading, and lighting, although it's unclear which of these new methods—which seem like they will also need to be added to games on the developer side—it will implement. Whatever it is, though, NVIDIA will likely divulge the details when it reveals its new 5000 series GPUs.

The funny part of that whole debacle was the people blaming the game devs and everyone else but Nvidia. People don't realize that if any piece of software caused damage to your hardware that's immediately a failure on the hardware manufacturer for not implementing safeguards.
But no matter how much AMD does or at least try to, its simply never good enough or good at all.
It is not a bash thread and is not a Nvidia vs. AMD thread.

Of course, this does not mean that all those models will be actually released, it's more like Palit is preparing for every possible situation.
But if such number of SKUs per one generation would be really released, man, that would be disaster for reviewers.
Huge differences between amount of shaders distributed among currently known RTX 5000 series SKUs point to a fact we might see more RTX 5000 series SKUs than with 4000 or 3000. One shall see sooon!
