>All four Nvidia graphics boards in question are described as “COMPUTER GRAPHICS CARDS”. However, all four carry very similar per unit values and as such we could be looking only at the circuit boards and not necessarily graphics cards but there’s really no way of telling for sure.

>All four boards start with the same 699 serial number and the earliest record of a board carrying that serial number appears in December. So we know that we’re looking at Nvidia graphics boards that are new and did not exist at any point before December. This could potentially explain Pascal’s absence from CES and why Nvidia chose to showcase the Pascal Drive PX2 module with Maxwell GPUs instead.

>Pascal graphics architecture.
>2x performance per watt estimated improvement over Maxwell.
>DirectX 12 feature level 12_1 or higher.
>Built on the 16nm FinFET manufacturing process from TSMC.
>Allegedly has a total of 17 billion transistors, more than twice that of GM200.
>Will feature four 4-Hi HBM2 stacks, for a total of 16GB of VRAM and 8-Hi stacks for up to 32GB for the professional compute SKUs.
>Features a 4096-bit memory bus interface, same as AMD’s Fiji GPU power the Fury series.

How else are they going to keep this thing cool?

Cool, hopefully this will be good.

probably going to upgrade to this and bin my 2 290x-es

What is up with these cartoon robots? Who are they?

>>52955405
It started with a thread using jenny from a few days ago and it resulted in a massive western vs eastern animation turf war. It seems to have calm down since that thread isn't being shitposted in like other threads were from yesterday and the day before. I guess as long as you post something /g/ related like a robot, nobody will have a problem unlike posting gumball or regular show

>>52955405
/co/, could be worse.
We could have daily /a/ shitposting here oh wait...

>>52955498
I don't really mind /co/ as long as the thread stays technology related

>>52955524
This.

Also, I don't think fury X2 would be enough to get AMD back on track. I hardly know anyone that bought the last dual GPU. I would rather wait for the Polar Graphic Cards.

>>52955011
Hire competent engineers that can design a more power efficient GPU like nVidia does.

>>52955635
They already have more powerful hardware in pretty much all standard metrics than Nvidia, but they lack good software to take advantage of it.

>>52955635
Nvidia doesn't put two full fledged graphic processors into one.

>>52955635
Maybe if AMD reduces the memory to 3.5GB they can cut down on power consumption.

>>52955663
They used to, but the Titan Z flopped so hard that it's not likely they'll go that route again.

Quite frankly, I don't know what the point of dual-GPU cards is... it's usually worse than simply having SLI/CF, but on the flip-side, few ITX cases could actually provide adequate cooling for such a monster or support a radiator.

>>52955789
I don't see the point of Dual GPU cards either. I wonder why AMD is still making them?

>>52955635
>more power efficient GPU like nVidia does
>like nVidia does
So, by making a GPU that is completely useless for compute tasks and double-precision?
Nvidia didn't make an outright efficient architecture, you fucking retard. They were stuck with 28 nm so they repurposed Maxwell to be filler product for their consumer (GeForce) line. They made it more efficient by stripping it of compute-oriented components and focusing strictly on gaming only, which made a decent gaming GPU but with awful compute performance. Which is why the current Titan is a joke (1/32 DP performance, compared to 1/3 DP performance for the original Titan), why Tesla didn't get updated to Maxwell, and why Quadro only recently got updated to Maxwell but people still recommend the Kepler models.
Pascal won't be like that, because Nvidia now needs a GPU that isn't shit for compute, so they can make proper Tesla and Quadro updates. So just like with Kepler, Nvidia's efficiency advantage will be gone.

So, you're illegally hashing someone's images to file false reports?

It isn't. If Maxwell had twice as many transistors as Kepler, it still wouldn't be impressive. The only metrics worthy of note are raw performance, and efficiency. I'd be seriously worried if Nvidia weren't doubling their transistor count with a die shrink of this magnitude.

Now if only we could get an actual date or price, which is all anyone cares about.

>>52963339
Probably around the 2k range like the others

>>52963490
Better not be if they want to sell any. $1000 max for me. That's still too much. If it is more expensive than two fury x they're retarded.

The R9 x2 is 2k even after the years it came is still 2k

>>52954937
why the fuck would they still try to sell this with Polaris being supposedly <6 months out?

I just hope to fuck the AMD made the interposers for Fiji and big Polaris pin compatible so they can roll out the Fury 2x2 or whatever without a stupidly long delay.

>>52965122
What's wrong with corssfire?

>>52965345
not him, but even though CF now scales better than SLI, AMD still seems to be slower about rolling out profiles for games than Nvidia.

this shouldn't matter In Theory(tm) for DX12/Vulkan, but we'll see what really happens.
