Nvidia Announces Pascal P100 Volume Production

[WYP]

Nvidia Announces Pascal P100 Volume Production, a 600mm square processor that offers 21.2TF of GPU performance and utilises HBM 2 memory and NvLink technology.

1 step closer to the consumer version

I've just watched the live stream, and there's no reveal of the GTX 1070 nor the 1080?
It wont be revealed or... it may be in the remaining days of the conference?

Nvidia will most likely do a standalone "GTX" type conference for the gaming orientated versions.

Which is coming these next few days?
I've just looked at their time table and there's a keynote tomorrow and thursday at 11am PDT/7pm BST. It may be one of these?

EDIT: First time following an nvidia launch tbh, so dont really know how this goes

One thing that needs to be remembered is that Deep learning etc are big earners for NV. Which is why they can sell to them so early in production. It will be ages before we see this GPU (big pascal) release in a GTX gaming product.

This GPU will almost certainly be the future Nvidia Titan class GPU, but normal pascal will have to come to gamers first, just like with kepler and Maxwell.

I have updated the article with more information, including clock speeds and memory capacity.

Keep in mind the consumer version is will be much less powerful. This is meant for super computers and stuff after all. 300w tdp is funny too.. if it was AMD people would laugh but since it's Nvidia eh no one cares.

Only 15.3b transistors does indeed debunk any rumor though of 18b from what I've seen. Can't wait to see how next gen performs for both companies. Though don't expect Pascal for another 4-6 months since volume production starts now

No one in our corner of the enthusiast community or outside the super computer sector cares about TDP of super computer cards to the extent we do since most of these things will be in huge cooling towers anyway.

It's the consumer versions TDP that standard consumers will be critical of, If Nvidia released a 300w TDP non super computing card I would be just as critical if AMD did the same thing, As would many others.

I honestly don't care about tdp.. I just want performance tbh so I never understood why anyone would care about it outside of itx builds where smaller power supplies are needed, but even then you have nano or other itx cards

True that, More of a talking point between fanboys arguing over something that has no real impact for enthusiast consumers.

Ya well this is the internet we are talking about
But I'm really just curious now. Since this is presumably the biggest card on Pascal, it only has 15.3b transistors.. AMD is going to be ahead as they are doubling the amount for the big chip.. I'd say probably 16-17b but closer to 17. That's quite a big advantage and considering both are FINfet, but Samsung design is considered the best you can get outside of Intel, it should end up being a substantial improvement over P100 for AMD.

I suspect AMD to release at least 2 cards by mid summer. If Nvidia just started producing at volume for enterprise, I'd say probably 4 months before we get any p100 class chips. It would end up being the first time AMD came out first since 2011 with 7000 series.Exciting times for AMD. They really need to smash this year with all products. Or say goodbye to them


Another note.. really curious to get some Nvidia info.. want to know if it was have ACE like AMD do with GCN

For AMD's sake I hope you're right...
They better pull out a big ass trick before Nvidia pulls AMD's pants down.

But can it run Crysis?
