Next Round of Nvidia GPU's ?

[Dicehunter]

Currently running on a GT 1030, Sold off my 1080 Ti and Vega64 as I was honestly not that impressed by them, Plus work has increased 10 fold so gaming was cut by at least 95%.

So anyone know roughly when we can expect anything new from team green ? Is it around GTC or is it another conference thingy ?

You are in for a very long wait I think.

The clue is the Volta Titan which is likely to be the only release on that architecture for gaming. The reason I say this is the card has no SLI connector and it was initially listed as a 10 series card by NVidia or putting it another way if there were going to be a family of Volta gaming cards then NVidia would have put more effort into designing a PCB with SLI and gaming in mind.

I think we are going to see Pascal on the shelves well into the summer.

I'm honestly not in any rush for a GPU, The most I do at home now due to a vast increase in work is emails and the odd film, The next time I have a normal work schedule is around September next year.

This is my point, NVidia have done very little work with the Titan V to make it a serious gaming card and this points to the fact that there is nothing in the wings anytime soon to suggest that there will be a range of Volta gaming cards.

To be honest the Volta Titan is an absolute beast but only because of the increased core count over Pascal, there are no efficiency gains unless properly written DX12 games start appearing very soon.

What's your honest take on Titan Xp ? , I'm considering getting 1, I've already had a 1080, 1080 Ti and Titan XP, All of which left me wanting more.

 

[Dicehunter]

The Xp is about 7% to 10% faster than a 1080 Ti.

Or putting it another way if you got rid of the 1080 Ti you won't get much fun out of the Xp.

Mehh, I'll just wait until September then, My little 1030 can help me check emails and watch the odd film until then

Got a Christmas bonus and I nearly pulled the trigger on a Titan Xp Star Wars Galactic Empire Edition then remembered we'll be seeing new cards in Q1/Q2, So close, Was signed in, Address filled out, Only 1 button click away from the purchase
