Nvidia Post-Volta (Ampere?) Rumor and Speculation Thread

Since there was a new patch released (bug fixes) a few hours ago maybe a performance review will popup, though I doubt it. Most reviews seem to be a little earlier than ComputerBase review.
 
According to a new DigiTimes report, Nvidia will be among one of the three major clients that will leverage TSMC's CoWoS packaging this year, with the other two being Xilinx and HiSilicon.

Nothing news, Nvidia is using TSMC CoWos since 2017 in Volta

MEMORY
CoWoS Stacked HBM2

These guys really write for nothing. so easy... let me tweet some exclusives too...
A "secret industry source" (= I put it straight out of my a*s) told me that next gen datacenter Hopper is a chiplet MCM design put in a gigantic CoWoS package with 96GB of HBM2e. This monstrosity will deliver 10 times CDNA2 performance. Yeah no less!
PS: Subcribe to get the follow up story

Actually since 2016, GP100 used CoWoS too
 
Believe it or not, the is as fresh as it comes for this title.
They do these tests each month actually, the last one is a week old:

RDR2 specifically got a speed increase on Turing with the first couple of patches and a couple of NV driver updates. The renderer is obviously heavily GCN optimized so NV h/w suffered a bit at launch. Seems rather in line with your average performance expectations now though.
 
Those benchmarks seem to be identical to the ones in the earlier article, just not rounded to whole numbers.
 
I assume the ~140% perf over 2080Ti is in raster performance and not RTX performance? If it includes RTX performance, that is very disappointing.

I think Ampere needs to double RTX performance (and even that would be insufficient at the sub x70 tiers)
 
Impossible to say without knowing which products will go into which price ranges.

Yeah that's true, if it powers the xx70 tier or even xx60 then it's pretty nice. Of course other metrics like power consumption and presumedly improved RTX performance come into play.
 
This unknown twitter guy keeps backtracking on his statements, obviously he knows very little, if the chip just taped out how he would know the other chips/full lineup? The clocks, performance target?

Also I thought NVIDIA stated that majority of their chips is going to be from TSMC and not Samsung? If the gaming chips is from Samsung then that statement is obviously wrong.
Hard to see overall performance being more than 50% faster as a best case.
Maybe for the 3080 class, but definitely not for the 3080Ti.

For equivalent tiers. 3080 being 50% faster than 2080ti is a pipe dream IMO.
