NVIDIA ‘Ampere’ 8nm Graphics Cards

H2 2020 could mean anything from July till December 2020. More likely Q4 2020 than Q3 2020.

OK I'll bite. Why?

Maybe psychology and my prediction. They could have pointed to Summer 2020 or Back-to-school season 2020 to look better, but claiming H2 2020 could mean just Holiday 2020 or early 2021 for real sales.

The visual difference is huge if developers fully implemented it and the performance was there - it is definitely not a tech that is going away.

Problem is their is hardly any games that use it so unless more games have it who cares if the new cards coming out are faster at it.

[JediFragger]

Makes sense, a year after the Super's and 2 years after Turing the Turd.

 

[Jae-So]

so roughly when can we expect ampere?

I have hard time believing 2nd quarter, maybe in early 2021. Simply because its unlikely AMD can match anything nvidia has this year, even with navi21.Don see any incentive for them to release it early when 2080ti et all are dominating the market currently.

I hope amd can squish nvidia but not happening, been waiting 10 years almost lol

So consoles aren't incentive enough?
I think we underestimate the influence of consoles and those that will forgo an upgrade for a reasonably priced console. At least in the non-work station / professional space.

Rome wasn't built in a day, more games will come, cyberpunk being the main one this year and I'm holding off playing it until the 3080ti is out.

The RT effects in CP2077 will be a lot more understated than people expect, imo it would be a waste to wait.

Atomic Heart seems to be showing off Ray tracing best tbh from what I've seen. And the changes can be huge if done right. Problem is balance of what it brings at moment. Now if you can get 50% perf next gen and something similar with AMD I can see it getting large pretty quick.

Until the 2080ti Super and the Titan Super release and things settle down after, there will be no new generation “for the foreseeable future”.

I really can’t see a 2080Ti being released tbh.

It will be very nice if we get 2 x RT perf!

 

[Grim5]

2x RT will bring it close to being performance neutral as in RT off and RT on would be close in performance. Just as was predicted, it's just Tesselation and Physx all over again - each generation will make it faster until it's totally neutral.

 

[robfosters]

If Ampere really does arrive in August, we’re realistically looking at September/October for decent stock of AIB cards aren’t we?

 

[Grim5]

Lucky you.

min my country a August launch means I can only pickup a AIB card in November

 

[BS Dave]

It needs to be more like 4x I reckon. So developers can really get going with it.

Good, you deserve it

How much do you reckon it will cost I can see Jenson gettin a Gucci leather jacket this time round lol .

Most people seem to think the 3 series might be cheaper.

Ain't gonna happen.

I have spoken.
