It looks like gamers will have to wait for a bit before getting their hands on Nvidia’s all-new Ampere GeForce RTX 3000 GPUs, including the highly anticipated flagship, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti. Based on recent rumors from Tech Radar, the company will likely debut its next generation of graphic cards by August this year.
Nvidia was originally scheduled to launch the GeForce RTX 3000 series at the GTC conference in March. The all-new Ampere architecture, which will feature 7nm process, is reported to exceed the performance of the current 12nm Turing architecture by up to 75 percent.
However, the company called off the show earlier last month due to concerns over the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Instead, Nvidia will reportedly debut the new Ampere GPU architecture in August. The full launch of the graphic cards will arrive a month after, during the rescheduled Computex conference in September.
Tech Radar wrote that both the GeForce RTX 3080 and GeForce RTX 3070 graphics cards will feature the company’s new Ampere GPU architecture. The new architecture will pack “some gigantic new performance improvements, and equally as impressive power efficiency.”
An earlier leak claimed that the upcoming flagship, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti, will have 5,376 CUDA cores. This represents a 16 percent increase compared to the previous model, the RTX Titan.
The RTX 3030 Ti will have a 384-bit bus interface and a VRAM of 12GB. Based on the report, it will be 40 percent faster than the RTX 2020 Ti.
Unlike other companies in other industries, the COVID-19 pandemic is not expected to negatively affect Nvidia’s performance this year. Apparently, social distancing has been good for its business as a significant portion of the population is now turning into video games for recreation. Nvidia management claims that there has been a 50 percent surge in “total gaming hours from its installed base as many students and workers were staying-at-home.”
Its data center niche saw a surge in demand due to people opting to work from home. The company’s data center business generates for around a third of revenues based on data from the latest quarter.
