AMD Navi 23 ‘NVIDIA Killer’ GPU Rumored to Support Hardware Ray Tracing, Coming Next Year

[GAC]

They're holding back stock to see where Big Navi lands, if it wins then they'll probably rush out new chips to try take back the win

honestly if nvidia have the chips they should be trying to get as many out as they can because IF amd knock it out of the park on price and performance i can see thousands of them pre orders refunding very fast BUT thats only if amd have stock as well.

AMD standing in front of an open goal right now... hope they don't miss.

Yes a 3090 10-12 GB SKU priced at 899 .... might be too tough to resist
But most folks believe that the demand's been too high..and many of the 3080 buyers might not be aiming the same tier in coming generations

There is already a 3090 with 10GB VRAM... it's called a 3080.

Absolutely. I do have a 3080 on order but if AMD produce a good alternative with decent availability I'd happily jump over to team red.

No SLi

No SLi

Which isn't really being supported in games anymore

 

[elroberto]

Yup it's coming isn't it

Maybe...maybe not! #ChooChoo

Just a faint hope that the community would be able to figure that out in a few weeks..
Right now there's no conclusive evidence.
would only make sense if you have a huge backlog of DX 11- era games
if its dead like a dodo, then yes, theres no point in going multi-GPU anymore

 

[Richdog]

No SLi

Buying 3090's for dual-card gaming is just daft anyway.

Nvidia cant win.

AMD is your new overlord queen, just bow down to your queen

No, let it speed up. The carnage will be more spectacular that way if AMD fail to deliver

It was before your time here, but the Polaris Hype Train was awesome. Many remember it fondly. Humbug made it very memorable

 

[Grim5]

No

Steve says otherwise and I value his opinion more than some random

Will laugh if many of us get AMD high end and it outperforms 3080 for less cash before many of the Nvidia diehards even get their cards lol... will definitely highlight how much of shambles Ampere launch has been.

I read something recently that AMD is also going to use TSMC 6nm, which is basically 7nm EUV, not to be confused with 7nm+.

i'll see if i can find the link.

No SLi

Yer because SLi is dead and if you want to buy a 3090 and justify it with "SLi" for gaming? lol weak dude weak, good luck with all the upcoming titles that have SLi support Ohh wait? O-o
Literally only an idiot would buy the 3090 for gaming vs the 3080.

I see a different scenario playing out
But sincerely hoping that you are correct..

Thanks for that nicely worded analysis

I think it's much more likely to be single GPU designs @ 5nm.

Based on what? Nvidia Hopper will MCM, Intel Xe is already MCM, so why would AMD - who were the first to utilise chiplets in CPU design - stay with a monolithic design when it's obvious that we're reaching a dead end with how far monolithic designs can go and still churn out performance uplifts gen on gen.

There is an ocean between using MCM or chiplets for CPUs and GPUs - very little actually transfers over beyond a very general sense.
