Will Nvidia be selling 7nm graphic cards in 2019?

Thoughts on the 2019 market?

Nah, my prediction is even if AMD get them out in 2019 it will be professional only, not desktop, i think we are looking at 2020 for 7nm

I mean, look at how even intel are struggling with even getting to 10nm

I hope I'm wrong as i loves me a new GPU

I've read that TSMC are sampling 7nm already, and going mass production for 2019 with 20 (?) customers lined up inc AMD and Nvidia?

It's guessed that Apple will be the first customer

But from what I've read Intel have had problems, but TSMC haven't?

The most likely scenario is a 7nm refresh of turing in Q3/Q4 2019, followed by brand new 7nm architecture in Q2/Q3 2020.

Reasoning for your thoughts?

AMD is on a roll for sure, but not in the GPU market unless there's a surprise IMHO

I think next year could be very interesting

AMD has decided to go after the big money, and gave up losing money trying to persuade the braindead zombies.
That AMD is ahead on GPUs for server marker, is the reason Jensen compared the (Xeon CPU) RTX8000 based server to Xeon farm. He couldn't do it against the Mi25 based servers which are more powerful and cheaper than the Nvidia offerings.

And even if AMD comes out over the next 5 years on the trot beating Nvidia, still the zombies will buy Nvidia. As they do right now, pre ordering a product which all signs showing is of same performance with current generation, ignoring the facts and listening to marketing charts.

I didn't make this thread to become Nvidia v AMD

Just thoughts on 2019 and 7nm

$$$ £££ €€€

Some beast cards coming if you're right

They'll both be wanting to hold future shrinks back for as long as possible, Soon they'll have nowhere to shrink too, They both know this and I imagine the long term forecast isn't good because of it, That's why they're bringing things like Ray Tracing to the table, It'll allow them to stretch out how long they have until they simply can't eek out any more performance as we know it.

Haha, really?
