NVIDIA Maxwell successor goes by the name "Einstein"

A little early but at least the future is looking good :)

Even if currently nothing concrete for the current Kepler architecture following Maxwell architecture for a long time (2014, 20 nm) is known, nVidia still has naturally been the long-term future and researching for the proposed chip. To a long-term project, the code name was now well known: the architecture should follow the Einstein-Maxwell-architecture. This code name nVidia remains within the rest of the younger tradition: the architecture Fermi, Kepler, Maxwell and Einstein were all now known scientists dedicated ( Enrico Fermi  , Kepler  , James Clerk Maxwell  and Albert Einstein  ) .

Using the Einstein architecture should improve the overall usability of the nVidia graphics chips for GPGPU tasks probably more, all been said so far on this  but has probably only character studies, should not be long gearbeit on a real circuit diagram of Einstein graphics chips. For production size and thus the Einstein Erscheingstermin architecture there is conflicting evidence, however: While some see Einstein as 14nm or 16nm chip in 2016, others speak of a 10nm chip in 2018. If, however, the Einstein-Maxwell-building is really the architecture follows directly, may well be correct first resolution - with the 14nm manufacturing, however, as the contract manufacturer TSMC and Globalfoundries future will follow in this issue of the Intel production steps.

16nm or even 14nm in Einstein for a supposed 2016 release.
 
Damn. They'll need to make those cards seriously special to be worthy of using the name Einstein. If not then I'm going to convert to IslAMD and spend all day waging holy war on your threads. Nothing new for these forums I suppose, but new for me.

Massively improved PhysX!

perhaps the cards increase local mavity to speed up time for smoother gameplay :D

Nice try, but General Relativity states that time slows down as gravitational force increases. Hence why time stands still at the centre of a black hole, or so the current theory suggests. If you want more FPS, play your games out in space ! :p

ive corrected my post :p
 
Perhaps they'll make extensive use of the Photoelectric effect allowing for larger currents to be sustained... :D

Or maybe the GPUs will oscillate rapidly within your system as to incur time dilation meaning that to the "stationary" observer's frame of reference a higher fps count will be observed.
 
I think if Einstein was alive today he would describe NVidia as

"A Greenhole with punters watching their money disappearing over the event horizon in ever increasing amounts"
