NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang has been Cooking the World's Largest GPU - Is this Ampere?

meanwhile on amd

Someone at AMD's PR team few years ago "Hey, let's build an angry mob on reddit and use it against our competition", flash forward to May 2020 and that mob is now knocking on AMD's doors with pitchforks and torches in their hands.

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

that new video just release that has "confirmed" information about the 3080Ti.... also looking nothing like that thing on the counter.

Not confirmed by Nvidia ,yet.

Even if those specs were true they're still flexible and I don't think they're close to release I'm thinking 3rd/4th quarter perhaps, maybe even Christmas since there will be lot's of choice and little cash This Christmas for some, that's clear.

Imagine believing this unironically.

“Intel and Nvidia bad. AMD good!” AMD then proceeds to imitate all the “shady” business moves from the big 2 ahahahahahahaha!

Do you even bake ?
Those are just silicon spatulas. Useful for cake glazing and general cooking with non-stick hardware. I also have a bunch of those and there is nothing special about them.

Nothing special unless you use them for kinky stuff.

 

[sutyi]

Not even out and already a BGA failure and reballing it in the oven... noice.

LOL no kidding... It is all rumor until I see TechpowerUp reviews I don't even care about the Nvidia "confirmed" numbers because they and everyone else always puts their numbers in their favor, as they should right, gets that hype train going good and hard, but then real world testing rolls in to town and it is when I care.

I plan on getting a 3xx0 series card. so hopefully something that is worth looking at this go around comes out. the RTX2xxx cards was a good gen1 run and thanks to everyone that bought them and made 3XXX series a possibility LOL

I have seen a fair few hype trains by now, I don't think you are getting a new GPU until very late in the year then personally unless you have Titan money.
I think Nvidia will wait until Rdna2 lands then final spec their GPU's, mostly because that's what they do, to optimise profitability.

 

[Xaled]

No, Ampere launch is in two weeks.

So we should expect Rnda2 after two weeks? When there is no competition, why would Nvidia release a new series and not wait 3 years as they did last time ?

I will wait another year... no worries for me. I don't pre order or jump on wagons, I wait until the hardware I have is well used or doesn't play a game I must have running at high frames. for now my current rig checks all the boxes and plays all the games so a "next gen" card would be a waste of money realistically

This needs to be said right off the bat, this article has nothing to do with AMD. I think some posters here have a case of AMD derangement syndrome. Half the posts are completely off topic.

 

[Fluffmeister]

Ah that must be the NVIDIA Tesla A100 HGX-2, very nice. Not sure why people are talking about RDNA2, these bad boys are going into HPC segments and will power the Big Red 200 upgrade amongst many others.

While I agree in part ,they are the competition.
Though there's some Huang banter clearly.

Looking back though it's not how your saying it, most mentioning AMD have been simply calling them fire burners to try and bait an argument.

Others are just trying to have a reasonable convo, without bias.

@Fluffmeister because some have not realised it's data center first then consumer, sorry I was passing on consumer 3#8# Nvidia delivery time frame though.

 

[Divide Overflow]

Oh dear. You have to oven bake the new nVidia cards too?

 

[Turmania]

No leather jacket , how do we know it is really him?

 

[Prima.Vera]

Since when is he grey haired?

Since he started to overcharge his videocards more than double the worth and the curses of the people finally got to him

Exactly, that's the first thing which came to my mind.

 

[Logoffon]

I think he must've been reflowing those GPUs in that video...

You don't, it's clearly all a hoax!

GTX 10 series launched in May 2016.
RTX 20 series launched in September 2018.

Nvidia is launching this year, they don't need competition for this and they need a new product out in order to counter and squash whatever AMD's got in store for RDNA2.

 

[Vayra86]

Nothing lately has besides the rumour mill, everything pointing to Ampere is suggesting the data center card's are first out, gaming card's should follow but Nvidia themselves are tight lipped.

Who knows, could be as late as Sept this year, I reckon with where we are today that is at least what we'll need before store availability.

Someone at AMD's PR team few years ago "Hey, let's build an angry mob on reddit and use it against our competition", flash forward to May 2020 and that mob is now knocking on AMD's doors with pitchforks and torches in their hands.

Where are those mobs at? All I read about was some sad Russian nerd killing another sad nerd over some Nvidia AMD spat that went out of control. The rest of us was just trolling, Raja included.

 

[InVasMani]

At least he didn't drop it a la Linus.

Yeah Linus would defiantly do that and probably intentionally to make viewer cringe in agony.

Similar strategy AMD uses, but AMD seems to like opening up its lips compared to Nvidia. lol

Nvidia ain't squashing anything. RDNA2 is not going to be another VEGA. RDNA2 may or may not defeat Nvidia's new GPUs, but what the industry wants is strong competition, and that is where RDNA2 should shine quite bright IMO.

Well he's hosting a keynote tomorrow, maybe he'll tell us what that is. Seems to be all about compute
