16nm GM200 Titan II

I'm betting 8gb on a 512bit bus. Will be a monster if very pricey GPU...

It’s coming folks – NVIDIA’s next-generation GPU is already being teased, weeks after the Maxwell cards have reached consumers’ PCs. The news is coming from WCCF Tech, who is reporting that the next-gen GPU from NVIDIA will be baked onto the 16nm FinFET process from TSMC. During NVIDIA’s recent earnings call, CEO and co-founder of the company, Jen Hsun-Huang teased that he is “excited about our next generation GPU”. Huang added that “right now we’re enjoying ramping Maxwell. And so Maxwell is unquestionably at this point a home run and we’re just savoring the moment and ramping the living daylights out of it”.

This could see NVIDIA unveil its GM200-based product soon, most likely the second AMD announces its next-gen Radeon R9 390X GPU. If not, we could see the GeForce GTX Titan II unveiled at GTC 2015 in March next year. NVIDIA is skipping over the 20nm node, with the GeForce GTX 900 series built on the ageing, but still very capable 28nm process. The shift to 16nm process is going to really let NVIDIA stretch its legs in terms of performance and power consumption on the new GPUs.

Begin saving up folks, this GPU is going to be a monster.

It will be complete madness, I mean who is going to spend the money and watch thier investment go like every other Titan? 980 Ti will follow on the heels and not to mention that silver cooler all the time.


Im going to stick with my 980, And then move over to something on 16nm. Speaking of nm finfet is not 16nm either is it? Intel liked to use this trickery when in reality it is more like 19-20nm.
 
There is literally no new info here. WCCF are making up rubbish as usual based on 2 non-answers to questions about process tech. Pure speculation, babble and misdirection.

STOP POSTING WCCF

If the new Titan ONLY launch with 8GB vram, then you can bet Nvidia will release the Ti that follows with only 4GB vram...so that they can push 4K gamers onto getting the Titan instead of the Ti :p

On the more serious note...can't say I am a fan of Nvidia's Titan approach. They are delibrately turning what would had been a mainsteam flag-ship card into a premium product, and then launch a cut-down version of that as the mainstream flagship card later down the line. I mean let's face it...if the 780/780Ti were not stucked with only 3GB of vram but have 6GB instead, people would be able to hold-on to their card for longer (Nvidia certainly doesn't want that) and with SLI as a option that actually worth the consideration. Nowadays with the vram limitation on the mainstream cards, SLI for those cards is more like a "day 1 feature" for enthusiast that want lots of GPU power from day 1, rather than a worthwhile option for people to add another card later down the line...
