Looks like NVidia is already coming out with a new Titan card (pretty early though ain't it, especially since it is claimed to have HBM memory?), AMD is in trouble now, since they were planning on releasing HBM2 first with their Vega cards. Anyone thinks this GPU is gonna be worth or that it will be a rip and there will be a GTX 1080 Ti to be like this new Titan (Titan Y).
Hmm idk how they aregoing to do this. Somehow I don't see GP100 and GP102 being that similar minus NV Link. GP100 is absolutely massive and would cost a massive amount of money. In that new deep learning box they are over $10,000 a piece.
It also seems odd to me theyd have HBM2 and be released this early. It was always assumed that GP102 would be GDDR5X....
Idk this all seems odd to me. Even if we get a reveal in August I doubt we'll see cards until December or January. They are already having problems with GP104. I don't think an even larger chip would be easier.
Aww man, it isn't called a Titan Y? No buy from me. (jk)
Yeah, I don't really know how NVidia is gonna do this exactly, I guess I will have to wait and see since this information just came out. But if this GPU is near what it says to be, then RIP Vega probably.
I remember some article that claimed that the GTX 1080 is one of the top selling cards of all time (due to low stock, that's not possible, not if you compare to the sales of the GTX 970 or 960). I forgot what it was called.
They probably claimed that because it's never found in-stock anywhere, and they don't understand how the retail system works. So to them, if it's not in-stock then it's the best seller, despite the fact that it's actually because of how pitifully few cards have actually made it to retailers.
That would be like saying the Fury cards were selling so well by that logic lol.
I remember Microsoft doing this with Blockbuster (they still existed even in 2013?) and claiming to beat the PS4 in sales, even though only 2 systems were sold there and there was nothing to compare it to in terms of sales. TWO, which is basically nothing compared to the total amount of sales of both systems. That was a desperate attempt to make their system look good.
AMD doesn't care all too much for the high end anymore, or at least they don't right now. They're filling in the rest of the space on consoles, in store computers, low and medium end GPU's, phones and tablets, and they're kicking their GeOde chips back up soon I hear.
IDC about NV too much, AMD is the winning team now.
