AMPERE | NVIDIA’s Next Gaming Graphics in 2018 | Report Say

When it comes to releasing new lines of products especially in gaming computer hardware with high competition of hardware makers like AMD, Intel and NVIDA, for every company the next move depends on the way the competitors act. After romures about AMD expediting the 12nm AMD Radeon RX VEGA graphics of the 2nd generation from 2019 to 2018, now we are hearing some mords about Nvidia’s new line called Ampere to replace Pascal. It is not exactly clear though coase the old plan was going to put the Volta on gaming graphics market after Pascal but now new rumors suggest a very different story. Nvidia has reached the end of the Pascal life, which means it is time to look towards the future and it was spouse to be Volta. We have seen that Volta is on the way, in-fact, the V100 chip has already been used in Tesla card, but what’s next on Nvidia’s roadmap is empty. According to reports this week, Nvidia’s next architecture is set to be called “Ampere” and may be revealed officially in 2018.  Heise.de reports, information on Nvidia’s next-generation architecture should be at the GPU Technology Conference next year, under the name ‘Ampere’. The suggested title makes kind of sense with Nvidia historically naming their GPU generations after prominent scientists, and following pascal,  Alessandro Volta with Andre-Marie Ampere works given their electrical heritage.

Nvidia typically has released 5 years roadmaps for its GPUs. It makes sense if they are trying to extend the road map but jumping over to Ampere from the Volta that Nvidia recently called it the most power full GUP architecture is a little outside the box here. Unfortunately, nothing else has been released. There is the slight possibility Nvidia have decided their Volta GPU design is too heavily weighted towards AI as all ads and promotions and videos they have released recently about volta is focused on AI, they may want to make a decent consumer graphics card, but that seems incredibly unlikely. If the Nvidia Ampere name is for real then it’s more likely this is the next next-gen GPU of our green team dreams.
