** The Official Nvidia GeForce 'Pascal' Thread - for general gossip and discussions **

[JediFragger]

Chips take time to design and they can't move faster than the foundries.

You just have to pick a strategy and stick with it for a few years.

I know, it was a light-hearted comment tbh. More of a poke at MS tbh

Maybe they'll hold up a Maxwell chip again??

Or Fermi complete with wood screws

Maybe they just can't be arsed and just hold up a bag of wood screws

dont care if they hold up a still beating heart tbh, i want to see one plugged in to a machine running something.

Even better, amd's website will link to screw fix.

CEO of Nvidia: Can’t wait to tell you about future ‘Pascal’ products

http://www.kitguru.net/components/g...about-future-pascal-products-in-the-pipeline/

was reading a post from last year found it funny, guess CEO can wait
did Nvidia announce some new or exclusive features for pascal ?

 

[Orangey]

Just the HPC stuff like NVLink and mixed precision.

10x Maxwell performance, i.e having 1/3 DP instead of 1/32.
In other words bringing the DP performance closer to what Keplers was so they can finally retire the K6000 for the P6000.

So, what kind of prices are people expecting for the new cards? Obviously all speculation at this stage, but what is realistic do we think?

 

[FoxEye]

980 perf for £250-£300 seems like it could be possible.
970 perf for £200 or slightly under.
Maybe 980ti perf for £350-£400.

Best to expect too little and be impressed, than too much and be disappointed.

nVidia = dry

AMD = Less dry. Unless they've decided that they're 'premium' again (with abysmal sales) and wish to go in dry too...

Maybe Nvidia will just ditch the chip showing and hold up their market share.

And at the same time **** off share holders

Fixed

According to the nvidia braintrust on this forum one random quarter's market share dictates total market share in perpetuity.



So by all your logic AMD is winning.

Well that chart is no good, is it really, I mean NVidia don't make APU's and Intel don't make GPU's so not really very helpful at all. Unfortunately the charts we all really want to se are behind the paywall at JPR.

I wouldn't trust JPR anyway they have a history of making up numbers and copying and pasting from year from another. No idea how they get away with it.
