NVIDIA ADA LOVELACE GPU Gets First Rumored Specs: Absolute Monster At 18432 CUDA Cores And 64 TFLOPs Of Graphics Horsepower

We have a very very delicious rumor making the rounds today and it comes from a highly credible source. @kopite7kimi, the Twitter leaker responsible for pretty much all of the Ampere leaks, revealed a tidbit about the upcoming NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture (likely called NVIDIA ADA). Our...

I kid.

Anyway that's insane. I love it.

 

[Arkam]

2017?? A typo? Wait, I see what happened, release dates are reversed.

 

[Fermbiz]

64 Titty-flops???

 

[Max_Po]

Da faq? 2017?

 

[LazyParrot]

Great news for the 5 people who will manage to get one within a year after launch.

 

[Papacheeks]

64 Titty-flops???

Remember though this is what NVIDIA measures in titty flops. They did this with the Ampere launch showing bogus 29tf+ numbers which was a combined calculation based on both raw rasterization and RT. ANd it did not add up.

All the youtubers

 

[Buggy Loop]

Wow at those numbers in such a short span, and without MCM like Hopper.

probably because it's only 5nm

 

[Buggy Loop]

probably because it's only 5nm

I wonder if they reserved a spot at TSMC’s 5nm? Would raise the costs of these GPUs considerably, because Apple pretty much has the first spot at the table at TSMC. Is Samsung really ready for 5nm with good yields?

samsung isn't ready for 5nm yet but they're working on it but it does confirm that nvidia is not working with samsung and tsmc simultaneously. we probably won't see lovelace for a couple years anyway

 

[Knitted Knight]

Monster.

Crypto miners gonna be on that ass day one for sure. Kinda unfortunate some folks not only have to deal with scalpers (small bunch relative) but miners too (those have truly fucked the scene snatching supply).

 

[Rikkori]

This when they go all-in on 4K + RT, that's going to be a pain to fully utilise otherwise.

 

[ReBurn]

can it run crysis on max settings

 

[mckmas8808]

So what's the "REAL" TF number this GPU will be? More like 35TF? 40TFs at best?

there's no such thing as real TF or fake TF

a Flop is an objectively measurable thing

 

[alabtrosMyster]

If you are not to sell it why not 1000thousands TF?

 

[mckmas8808]

This isn't true at all. Certain "companies" count TFs differently. Like someone said above that Nvidia at one time combined the calculation of their TFs based on both raw rasterization and RT numbers. And none of us here believes that a proper way to do any of these measurements.

MS tried doing this as well not too long ago with the XSX.

 

[Rob_27]

But I was told TF's don't matter now.

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

~Fake~

 

[IntentionalPun]

In 2022 I think is what the article meant to say (they switched the dates on the old GPU and the new one)

Would have to see the AC malfunction in there.

 

[TeamGhobad]

this makes the consoles even more obsolete..

[TeamGhobad]

65 teraflops vs 12/10....

 

[00_Zer0]

64 Titty-flops???

 

[DonJuanSchlong]

It's crazy how even the lowest 3000 series gpu from NVIDIA, is more powerful than ps5. I think there will be a bigger leap that separates PC from consoles even more than in the past.

 

[DeepEnigma]

65 teraflops vs 12/10....

 

[GymWolf]

Can this bitch run crysis remastered tho?

 

[Redneckerz]

65 teraflops vs 12/10....

Good thing teraflops are everything these days. Oh wait, no.

 

[Tickle My Tendies]

DOES IT EAT MONSTERS FOR BREAKFAST???

 

[TeamGhobad]

Good thing teraflops are everything these days. Oh wait, no.

nope they aint but these new gpus will smokes the consoles. it was over before it began for xsx and ps5

DOES IT EAT MONSTERS FOR BREAKFAST???

it shits monsters for breakfast

 

[DeepEnigma]

it shits monsters for breakfast

What is over?

 

[TeamGhobad]

What is over?

consoles being competitive against PC

 

[DeepEnigma]

consoles being competitive against PC

Define "competitive."

 

[TeamGhobad]

Define "competitive."

i hate you

 

[Redneckerz]

it was over before it began for xsx and ps5

consoles being competitive against PC

And this needs pointing out... because?

 

[TeamGhobad]

And this needs pointing out... because?

last year we were circlejerking over 12 teraflops. it seems the gap between pc and console is getting bigger and bigger every gen.

 

[Mithos]

And how many RT cores?

I mean since Nvidia is "ALL IN" on that.
Wanna bet its less then on 3000 series?

If you're "ALL IN" Nvidia, I don't wanna hear less then trippledigit RT core count, on the xx60 version of ADA LOVELACE GPU cards.

 

[Dave_at_Home]

I can't wait to not be able to buy it! Bots ahoy!

I'm totally looking forward to upgrading next year so I hope to hell that I'll be able to pick one up.

 

[Tickle My Tendies]

[DonJuanSchlong]

Several console warriors on this site refused to believe it. If they can post "PC is doomed" threads, 24/7 prior to console launch, I don't see why that's a problem?

 

[Redneckerz]

I believe they were bigger last-gen than they are this gen, atleast in the CPU department.

Both of these can be both right and wrong.

But its all stating the obvious really. Top end PC hardware will trounce console hardware.

The question should be if PC hardware can trounce console hardware in the same price range, size range, and so on and so forth.

That argument isn't made here. What is made is stating something very obvious.

And if the point of the argument is to ruffle some console warrior feathers, well... do know that you aren't aiming for quality there then.

Tsk... in a few years there will be a dozen or so users with these machines that developers can target, dozens!

The lowest end Nvidia 3000x gpu currently, the 3060ti, beats ps5 in performance. So it's not just the enthusiast, high end, and middle end PC with performance crown, but also the low end of PC gaming now. Pricing-wise, consoles will win in that regard. But you are also severely limited with what you can do on a console, vs a PC, which completely changes the dynamic of said price argument.

 

[regawdless]

Push that raytracing performance as far as possible. If overall performance is more than 30% better in their 3080 equivalent for the same price, I'll upgrade. If it's a shit show like the 20xx, GTFO. I hope for AMD but am sceptical.

But these specs look really solid, if true.

 

[adamosmaki]

oh good rtx3080 might become available at reasonable prices by 2022
