The stream on wccf is smooth, ironic considering half the rubbish on there

Extra power 8+6 pin edition based on the earlier pcb leak
Ahhhhh. Thanks!
Thought it might be that, but then they didn't specify a different date for the 1170 or 1160 aftermarket cards. So FE and aftermarket cards due on the same date?

He's trying to give people fits with the flickering.

Looks like that was the Quadro RTX 6000 from what I could make out on the card.
Hopefully nvLink makes it onto consumer Turing and makes SLi viable again!

Yeah I don't think we'll get the gaming card here, just the quadros. Still kind cool though.

Bit of Quadro info here;

Looks like Turing is still on 12nm from that Pascal comparison...

754mm2 is pretty massive, and explains the new Titan pricing if it uses that core (over 18billion transistors).

RIP AMD
Lol, why?
No doubt that it is quite a significant step for NVidia, but of course how well it will scale down to the consumer gaming GPU's we will have to wait till latter to find out.
A 6* speed increase over Pascal for Ray tracing is certainly quite impressive, but it still hasn't answered the important question.
11xx or 20xx

Have we ever seen Pascal do ray tracing?

It looks like the series is named RTX instead of GTX:

That is because Pascal has to do it software and Volta and Turing have the hardware do it with!

Nvidia is teasing in one of its video an RTX2080 in a cryptic way:

Doesn't supporting it..... Only the now dead Volta and Turing onwards...

Roflmao. Most of the tech showed tonight, AMD has announced it since 2013 with the Hawaii GPUs!!!!!!! Hell AMD supports even sound rays since then also.
And all these AMD tech is open, anyone can use it even NVidia without strings attached. (even the new RadeonRays 2.0)
All the tech NV showed tonight is closed to their Turing GPUs only
