Request for Graphics Card Roadmap 2014/15

powdaman · 3 Apr 2014 at 10:03

I know this is a tall ask but has anyone managed to get hold of a graphics card roadmap detailing the estimated dates of availability for all graphics cards due out over the next year for both AMD and Nvidia?

So would AMD and NVidia.

Gave me a chuckle

I would dearly love to know nVidia's roadmap for 2014, since I want a new GPU for June, but right now I know more about Pascal than Maxwell. Their recent event had plenty of self driving cars, professional rendering stations, a bit about Titan Z, and a conspicuous lack of info about the 8xx desktop series. Have to assume those swedish blokes are right and the silence means manufacturing problems and delays :/

According to sweclockers.com, 2015

Least, that's been the rumour for the last few days. Sad news if so.

I wouldn't expect anything special till then then

Yaayuh! · 3 Apr 2014 at 11:55

Die shrink early 2015 i think, but nothing much of any interest until then (apart from maybe the dual GPU cards)

I hope to hear something shortly. I want to buy a powerful gpu this or next month. Hope the 790 comes out quickly?

I wouldn't hold your breath

Such pessimism in this thread. Wish I didn't share it - was really hoping for some 20nm options around summer, but got a feeling I'll be choosing from one 2-year-old option or another.

Well I read a while back that Nvidia were due to start releasing the 8xx cards this month based on Maxwell? They then released the 750 and 8xxM cards but no sight of the bigguns... Then they talked about releasing dual 780 (790 I guess?), and 780ti with 6GB (thought that was a titan black), and Titan Z? So i'm seriously confused about what their intentions are...

AMD have made similar gestures but no releases as of yet.....

Lol, Meg's guess is probably as accurate as anyone else's, tis true

powdaman · 4 Apr 2014 at 12:29

updated the top of the tread to include URL to what looks like a very vague Nvidia GPU roadmap.

But your sig says that you've already got a 780, why not just get another one? Then you'd have 790 beating performance anyway

Lol, mystic Meg. Whatever happened to good television?

Is it wrong that "I would have been up her like a rat up a drainpipe", back in the day?

powdaman · 7 Apr 2014 at 07:23

would 2 780's beat the supposed 790 coming out? I was thinking of waiting until the next cards come out and then ebaying my 780 for 2 x 780ti's with 6GB (if they materialize). not sure yet what to do, all I know is that I currently game at 2560x1440 and my 780 struggles to keep the frame rates smooth in BF4....
