RTX 50 Series Launch Date Leak & Generational Advancements!

RTX 50 series performance and release date leaks indicate a 2024 launch and generational gain behind RTX 40

The most recent performance and release date leak for the RTX 50 Series from Moore’s Law Is Dead indicates that NVIDIA may introduce the next GPU architecture as early as Q4 2024, but with a performance boost that isn’t as noteworthy as what the RTX 40 series offered in terms of pure rasterization over the RTX 30.

When it comes to the top-tier RTX 5090 board with the GB202 GPU, NVIDIA’s next GPU architecture, codenamed “Blackwell,” is said to provide up to a 2.6x performance boost over RTX 40 Ada cards. One possible explanation for the uplift might be a higher SM count of 192. Now that the SM count has been confirmed, RedGamingTech has reviewed the RTX 5090 specs. Moore’s Law Is Dead also claims to have information on the release date and performance of the RTX 50.

Performance and release date for the RTX 50 series

Let’s start with MLID’s revelation. According to one of the leaker’s NVIDIA sources, Team Green is getting ready to release the RTX 50 Blackwell cards in Q4 2024, if the firm decides it’s time. Sales of the RTX 40 and how well-positioned RDNA 4 seems to be for the holidays are reportedly taken into consideration by NVIDIA when preparing the early launch scenario. NVIDIA is “planning to make a big deal about RTX 5000 efficiency at CES 2025,” the insider adds.

The rasterization boost of the RTX 50 won’t be “as impressive as Ampere to Ada” in terms of performance, according to MLID’s source. In our testing, they found that in the 3DMark Time Spy Graphics benchmark, the RTX 4090 outperforms the RTX 3090 by an average of 1.9x. With that in mind, the performance of the RTX 5090 may not even come close to the 2.6x that have been hearing about.

Paradoxically, according to MLID’s source, NVIDIA can make the RTX 5090 performance boost “feel” comparable in case circumstances warrant it, given that the RTX 4090 “was cut down by more than 10%.”

The specs of the RTX 5090

Red Gaming Tech has provided us with the RTX 5090 specs in addition to information on the RTX 50 Series performance and release date. Sadly, none of the leaker’s information is very novel since they already know the majority of the hardware specifications he discusses.

First off, 192 SMs, 36 GB of 36 Gbps RAM, and a 384-bit bus are all suggested by RGT for the RTX 5090 (GB202). A monolithic die made using the TSMC N3E process is another suggestion made by the leaker.

Lastly, RGT asserts that the 96 MB of L2 cache that has been reported may not be accurate.

To make the long tale short, the RTX 50 Series class of GPUs did not equivalent the substantial boost they saw during the RTX 40 series when it comes to performance, and it might ship late in 2025 or early next year. However, the information is unofficial and subject to change, as is often the case with leaks of this kind.

New RTX 2060 could be imminent – but DIY GPU has already beaten Nvidia

Nvidia is supposedly planning to resurrect the RTX 2060 GPU with double the VRAM, but a modder has already made such a graphics card, taking the DIY route to cram the same amount of extra video memory on-board.

This is another effort from Russian hardware modder VIK-on who has previously boosted the VRAM on various graphics cards, including sticking 22GB on Nvidia’s RTX 2080 Ti and doubling up the RTX 3070 to 16GB.

As VideoCardz reports, this time around the modder has put 12GB on an Asus RTX 2060, with the GPU successfully identified by tools like GPU-Z with that memory configuration validated. The DIY card apparently works ‘just fine’ but there is an issue around it sending the host PC into the occasional black screen crash (a bug seen with previous similar VRAM mod efforts, and one which can be worked around).

This project is interesting because as mentioned at the outset, the rumor mill insists that Nvidia is about to unleash its own rereleased RTX 2060 with 12GB of VRAM instead of the 6GB loadout on the original Turing GPU. The idea being that this will help the card remain relevant for those looking for a decent 1080p option (and being frustrated by ongoing stock issues around contemporary GPUs).

Nvidia should be able to supplement Ampere products with this resurrected RTX 2060 when it theoretically emerges on December 7, but as ever, treat this prospect with caution – though VideoCardz claims that purported launch date is still on track, and that Overclocking.com recently confirmed it with their sources.

Analysis: Does this tell us anything about what to expect from Nvidia’s RTX 2060?

We’ll know soon enough if Nvidia’s RTX 2060 with 12GB of VRAM is real, given that the launch date is (just) inside a fortnight now. The new version of the GPU isn’t expected to make any other changes save for this RAM boost.

When VIK-on doubled the VRAM on the RTX 3070, it was shown to run Watch Dogs: Legion noticeably more smoothly, but this time out, the beefed-up RTX 2060 wasn’t put through any gaming paces. The modder did, however, test the 2060 with 12GB in crypto-mining and the Unigine Superposition benchmark, finding roughly similar performance to the vanilla 6GB model.

Having the VRAM doubled to 12GB may not make any difference in some games, either, but those titles which do push memory requirements harder should obviously benefit from more headroom when graphics settings are cranked up more. Apparently we may see more testing on this DIY 2060 model in the near future, so it’ll be worth keeping an eye out for that, and any findings on gaming performance that might be aired.

The Graphic Card Model “GeForce RTX 3080 Ti” Has Arrived in the International Market

Though no official release date has been confirmed in the United States, many tech enthusiasts are spreading the rumors that the launch date of “GeForce RTX 3080 Ti” has been fixed on May the 18th, 2021, and the shipment will reach retailers by May the 26th. However, the website named “VideoCardz ” has revealed that retailers present in the international market have already commenced their up-gradation of stores by filling in custom models of “GeForce RTX 3080 Ti ” models. Many tech enthusiasts are pitching the new product as one of the best graphic cards ever produced, but there is still a factor of accessibility and price, which could determine its ultimate fate. The prices, which have been rumored about “GeForce RTX 3080 Ti,” will make the product stay in proximity with the prices of “GeForce RTX 3090” if we are in accordance with the hierarchy created by tom’s Hardware GPU benchmarks. For example, a retailer in the country of New Zealand called “Aquila Technology Ltd” has fixed the new GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) card model “GeForce RTX 3080 Ti” with the version 3X 12G OC from MSI at the price of $2,543.46 New Zealand dollars (NZD) and the model “GeForce RTX 3080 Ti” with the version Gaming OC (designated as GV-N308TGAMING OC-12GD) from Gigabyte fixed at $3,152.50 New Zealand dollars (NZD). Mathematically, if you convert the prices, then you would get $1,831.80 and $2,265.95 for each respective model. Now, if we can talk about some other countries such as Australia, a native retailer named “Perth Technical Services Pty Ltd” has already stored the new graphic cards of the models “GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Eagle” (designated as GV-N308TGAMING OC-12GD) from Gigabyte manufacturer and GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Vision OC (designated as GV-N308TGAMING OC-12GD) also from Gigabyte at a high-price of $1,732.75 Australian dollar (which, if you convert, roughly amounts to $1,344.59). Under normal circumstances, these prices would have been considered placeholders and somewhat understandable; however, given the climate that the graphic card industry is in during the pandemic, the users are expecting the upcoming models to be priced exorbitantly high. Now, some tech experts have even suggested that the new model “GeForce RTX 3080 Ti” has been rolled out by Gigabyte to compete with Nvidia’s blockbuster model “Radeon RX 6900 XT.” Well, no one can argue against the fact that “GeForce RTX 3080 Ti” is not a worthy competitor of “Radeon RX 6900 XT,” however, the cost of Ampere flagship does come in the $500 additional cost to the one offered by Advanced Micro Devices. In the earlier reports and speculations, it was suggested that the upcoming product “GeForce RTX 3080” would be priced within the range of $999 to offer an adequate alternative Radeon RX 6900 XT, taking the Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) into account. However, the prices, which have come out of the overseas report, cost is far exceeding the expectations. Nevertheless, we also have to take into account that there are seldom products that do manage to limit themselves with MSRP. There are several factors of logistics, which play their part in deciding the actual pricing of the product. Furthermore, the shipping of the products hasn’t been done under normal circumstances, and we would have to keep in mind the challenges the companies are facing in delivering the products on time during the pandemic.

NVIDIA confirms GeForce RTX 3060 launches on February 25th - VideoCardz.com

NVIDIA confirms GeForce RTX 3060 launches on February 25th – VideoCardz.com

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 non-Ti officially launches on February 25th NVIDIA has officially confirmed its first GA106 desktop graphics card will launch later this month. NVIDIA has now confirmed to the press that its next graphics card from the Ampere series will launch in more than two weeks, on February 25th. The date has already been known thanks to the previous leak from Wccftech. NVIDIA this…

Nvidia announced the RTX 3060 at CES 2021, taking the total number of desktop RTX 30-series cards to five. Of the cards, the RTX 3060 is designed for budget gamers, while the RTX 3080 sits at the higher end of the spectrum below the flagship RTX 3090. Both the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 and RTX 3080 take advantage of Team Green’s latest Ampere architecture and fitted with second-gen ray tracing cores and third-gen Tensor cores.

However, despite these similarities, there’s a lot separating these two RTX 30-series cards, with price the most obvious difference. Nvidia’s RTX 3060 launched with a starting price of $329, if one can be found in stock. In comparison, the RTX 3080 starts at $699, although stock shortages also make this card near-impossible to find. In the rare event that one is available, buyers may need to pay a much higher price on anything that isn’t a Founder’s Edition card.

In terms of specifications, the Nvidia RTX 3080 is equipped with 8704 CUDA Cores, 10GB of GDDR6X memory, 320-bit memory bus, and a boost clock speed of 1.71 GHz. The RTX 3060 features less than half the CUDA Cores as the 3080, coming in at 3584. However, the budget RTX 30-series card has a higher boost clock speed of 1.78 GHz and 12GB of GDDR6 memory. Although it is worth noting that the 12GB of memory uses older GDDR6 instead of the “X” variant used in the RTX 3080. Additionally, the RTX 3060’s 12GB of memory is on a narrower 192-bit bus.

Before deciding which is worth investing in, it is important to understand where these two RTX 30-series cards sit on the performance ladder. Nvidia’s RTX 3080 is one of the most powerful graphics cards in existence, with Team Green claiming that it is twice as fast as the RTX 2080, and faster than the RTX 2080 Ti as well. The Nvidia RTX 3060 is twice as fast as the GeForce GTX 1060, although this comparison seems irrelevant as the 1060 is a much older card that uses the somewhat dated Pascal architecture. During its launch, Nvidia also pitted the RTX 3060 against the RTX 2060, with the former delivering a performance bump of anywhere between 10 and 30-percent, depending on the game.

When it comes to targets, Nvidia touts smooth 60fps gameplay at 4K resolution with the RTX 3080, making this��an ideal card for enthusiast gamers. Hardcore gamers looking for a competitive edge by pushing frame rates to the max will also benefit from the RTX 3080, making it the best price-to-performance for gaming in 4K resolution. In contrast, the RTX 3060 has its sights set on smooth 60fps gameplay at 1080p resolution. This is an ideal graphics card for those with GPUs that struggle to hit 60fps when playing AAA titles at 1080p resolution. It is worth noting that the 60fps threshold for both the RTX 3080 and RTX 3060 have been set with ray tracing and DLSS turned on.

Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 3080 and RTX 3060 are two polar opposites. While both cards use the same architecture, they are aimed at very different users, evidenced by the difference in price. With the RTX 3060, Nvidia aims to give audiences their first taste of smooth gameplay with ray tracing turned on, while the RTX 3080 is meant to take the ray tracing experience to a whole new level. However, purchasing either of these cards will also depend on availability, as the recent confirmation of Nvidia stock shortages hasn’t just made RTX 30-series cards impossible to find, but has also seen sellers massively inflating the asking price.

Nvidia confirms “substantial” Samsung 7nm graphics card production in 2020

Nvidia has now officially announced that its next-gen 7nm graphics processors are going to be built on Samsung’s 7nm EUV node. Coinciding with the performance launch of the Nvidia RTX 2070 Super and GeForce RTX 2060 Super cards on the existing 12nm lithography, the green team’s Korean branch has confirmed the earlier speculation that the architecture to follow Turing will use Samsung’s extreme ultra violet fabs for its forthcoming GPUs.

Around a month ago a DigiTimes report cited market sources’ claims that the first Nvidia chips to get the Samsung 7nm node would be from the upcoming Ampere generation. But I’d still take the use of the rumoured GPU technology codename with a pinch of salt as no-one from Nvidia has yet let slip who the scientist it’s naming the next GPU architecture after will be.

But the announcement from Nvidia Korea is the first official word from the big green graphics card making machine that it is jumping on Samsung’s 7nm gravy train. Samsung itself had apparently touted Nvidia as one of its 7nm launch partners, which would peg a mid-2020 release date for the potential Ampere GPUs.

Nvidia Turing release date, news, and rumors

http://www.internetunleashed.co.uk/?p=25494 Nvidia Turing release date, news, and rumors - http://www.internetunleashed.co.uk/?p=25494 Will the real next-generation Nvidia graphics card architecture please stand up? Like, seriously.Nvidia Turing is more than likely going to be the architecture behind the much-anticipated GeForce GTX 1180, rather than Ampere or Volta. Now, we’ve been waiting for Nvidia to make an announcement for a while – doubly so since there was no near term developments at Computex 2018.There’s been a ton of speculation pointing at a September release with recent rumors suggesting we might be seeing three cards make it to the public that month. However, we’ve also seen some spots of flimsy rumors that suggest Turing cards will start releasing next month. Both of these release windows would work with the rumors that the next generation of GPUs will be announced at either Hot Chips or Gamescom in August. We’re betting on the latter being the launch event as Nvidia has announced it will be holding its very own GeForce Gaming Celebration event with “some spectacular surprises” on August 20th in Cologne, Germany – which is exactly when and where Gamecom 2018 will be happening.Then, to add even more fuel to the rumor-fire, Lenovo has supposedly leaked that the GTX 1160 will be coming to a gaming notebook in Q4 2018 – which, if true, makes the supposed September launch of Turing even more likely.Similar to previous generational leaps, like Maxwell to Pascal, we’re expecting the Nvidia GTX 11 series GPUs to elevate efficiency, and possibly PC gaming in general, to a whole new level with true 4K, 60 frames-per-second gaming on a single GPU. Cut to the chase What is it? Nvidia’s next generation graphics cards for gamersWhen is it out? Rumored for July 2018What will it cost? Hopefully not much more than Pascal  Nvidia Turing release date We keep hearing rumor after rumor coming out about the Nvidia Turing release date, but it’s looking like it’s finally coming out in the next couple months. At the time of writing, there are two distinct Nvidia Turing release dates possible. We’ve seen some flimsy rumors pointing to an August release date, which will be possible if the rumored Gamescom announcement goes something like “and, guess what! You can buy them today”, as that event is on the 21st of August. What’s more likely, however is a September release date. We’ve seen reports from people connected to aftermarket manufacturers that Nvidia Turing will be coming out September, with three cards making it to market. We’ve also seen reports of Turing-powered laptop GPUs launching by the end of 2018. Whether or not this points to when the desktop graphics cards will be getting their launch remains to be seen.      Nvidia Turing price Given the state of GPU prices, and the amount they fluctuate in a post-bitcoin world, we can’t help but to predict higher prices for Nvidia Turing cards when they come out – especially since Nvidia has a surplus of Pascal cards lying around. Right now we’re expecting Turing GPUs to launch at about $100 more than their Pascal counterparts.If you need a reminder of the pricing of the Pascal Founders Cards that are currently available, here you go: Nvidia Titan Xp - $1,199 (£1,099, AU$1,950)Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti - $699 (£679, AU$1099)Nvdia GTX 1080 - $599 (£600, AU$925)Nvidia TX 1070 Ti - $449 (£419, AU$759)Nvidia GTX 1070 - $379 (£379, AU$699)Nvidia GTX 1060 - $199 (£279, AU$429) Nvidia Turing specs Given that Nvidia has already introduced its new 12nm manufacturing process with Volta, we expect it to trickle down to the company’s consumer-facing Turing line. Beyond that, however there aren’t really any confirmed details about the details surrounding Nvidia’s next line of graphics cards.That’s not to say we can’t speculate, however. We’ve seen speculation that Nvidia is planning on releasing a 180W, 150W and 120W graphics cards in September, which would potentially mean we’re going to see the 1180, 1170 and 1160 release in a short time frame. This comes on top of leaks that we’ve seen pop up on the TechPowerUP GPU database, with a ton of information about the anticipated GPUs. This is all hearsay, mind you, but we’ve seen some evidence that the GTX 1180 will run with 3,584 CUDA cores, 224 TMUs and double the VRAM of the GTX 1080 – with 16GB of the GDDR6 VRAM found on the Nvidia Titan V.That’s not all, either. We’ve also seen some speculation pop up on Wccftech about a possible GTX 1170 with massively better specs than the GTX 1070, including 2,688 CUDA cores, 168 TMUs and a whopping 9.75 TFLOPS. Whatever the case, we fully expect Nvidia to deliver with new GPU technology that pushes the envelope for PC gaming as it always has. Meanwhile, this the latest in AMD Vega Source link
