NVIDIA Pascal Refresh "GeForce 20" Series GPU Family Speculation

A die shot of NVIDIA's Pascal GP104 GPU cadre.

A few days ago, a Chinese leaker mentioned that NVIDIA might be preparing a new GeForce lineup based on their Pascal core. Based on the information provided, 3DCenter has posted a speculative specs sail of what this lineup could like. Coming in 2022, prior to Volta, we can see a range of new cards for consumers.

Note: The data in this article is based on pure speculation. In that location's no confirmation about the mentioned products for whatsoever upcoming GeForce cards. Hence, the article should be treated as a rumor till NVIDIA officially confirms any next-gen products.

NVIDIA Pascal Refresh "GeForce xx" Serial Speculation - An Early Await at What NVIDIA's 2022 Graphics Lineup May Await Like

NVIDIA introduced Pascal to consumers in Q2 2022. The lineup featured two cards, the GTX 1080 and GTX 1070. Both cards provided a big spring in performance and efficiency over their predecessors. This meant that users can bask faster gaming performance at lower price and power consumption. For comparison, the GTX 1080 offered performance better compared to Titan 10 ($999 US) at $699 US. The GTX 1070 offered functioning better than the GTX 980 Ti ($649 U.s.), priced at $379 U.s..

Pascal has simply started launching down the upkeep and entry level markets. The contempo GTX 1060 cards and upcoming GTX 1050 cards will make Pascal come up to a more affordable range, in terms of price. The Titan Ten (Pascal) serves the enthusiast sector with its very impressive specifications only a high price of $1200 United states. It is currently the fastest card available to gamers and will remain and so until NVIDIA launches a meliorate product or AMD introduces a competitor in the form of Vega with HBM2.

And then effortlessly, just like that, Jen-Hsun announced the GTX 1080.

In that location's some other graphics card expected in 2022, this one is rumored to be known as GTX 1080 Ti. Now we don't accept very concrete details nearly this product at the moment but it is expected to feature a lower toll point than Titan 10 (Pascal) and volition feature effectually the same performance of the flagship Titan card. 1 major feature about this card is that it will be open up to custom models. This would allow AIBs to experiment with their own custom coolers and PCB solutions for ameliorate cooling and overclocking capabilities.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti To Be Part of Pascal Refresh?

As per 3DCenter, NVIDIA could skip the GTX 1080 Ti naming and move directly to GTX 2080 Ti branding on the new bill of fare. Now we clearly don't know if NVIDIA would use the GeForce eleven series branding or GeForce twenty series branding for their new cards but the latter seems better from a marketing perspective. Based on this, the new cards volition be marketed as GeForce GTX 20** (Ti/SE).

Before moving onward, I want to get in clear that nigh of this information is speculation. Neither of this information is confirmed and just provides representation of what the upcoming line of Pascal cards may look like. One thing is sure at this indicate that all cores except the GP102 are available in their total configuration in the GeForce family unit. The total GP104 dice is featured on the GTX 1080. The full GP106 dice is featured on the GTX 1060 and the full GP107 die will make its way to the GTX 1050 Ti.

And so this simply leaves two GPU which have room for expansion when it comes to SKUs. The GP102 and GP100. GP100 isn't coming to consumers since it is designed for HPC and AI applications. GP102 on the other mitt has been available on the consumer front end for some time now. Information technology is role of both Quadro and GeForce family unit. The Quadro variant features the full die configuration while the GeForce variant is based on a cut downwardly version. So nosotros can see a couple of GP102 variants coming for consumers soon. So without further a practise, permit's await at the speculated cards as reported by 3DCenter.

NVIDIA GP102 - GeForce GTX Titan Blackness V2 and GeForce GTX 2080 Ti

The first 2 cards mentioned past the source are GP102 based variants. NVIDIA is expected to launch their total GP102 in the consumer marketplace at some point and that is believed to be a Titan variant. NVIDIA's Maxwell saw the release of the full GM 200 die on the Titan Ten and with Pascal, that could be a repeat. The carte du jour would be a new revision of the GTX Titan Blackness, V2 as I would similar to call it. It would feature 3840 CUDA Cores clocked at around 1600 MHz, up to 24 GB of GDDR5X retention clocked at 12 GB/due south along a 384-flake bus interface. That's a full of 576 GB/s bandwidth without the utilise of HBM. Aside from these, information technology would accept pricing of $1200 US, same as current Titan but with fifteen% additional operation.

The second card in the GP102 stack would be the GTX 2080 Ti or GTX 1080 Ti as we currently know it. This carte is expected to characteristic 3384 CUDA cores clocked at around 1700 MHz and 12 GB of GDDR5X memory clocking in at 2500 MHz (ten GB/s). This would achieve the same theoretical bandwidth as current Titan X (Pascal). The card is expected to exist priced at $799 United states.

WCCF's Accept on the GP102 Pascal Refresh Cards:

NVIDIA has historically offered the best version of their big consumer die on a Titan card. Nosotros can look dorsum at the original Titan, Titan Black, Titan 10 and see that these cards are their virtually expensive yet almost beefiest prosumer solutions. The Ti variants have always been the primary attraction for gamers, and that should be the case once again when NVIDIA intros the GP102 based carte du jour. This new offering will characteristic cut downward specs but the availability of custom models and faster clocks volition lower the performance gap between a full fledged Titan bill of fare and the Ti variants.

As for branding, that is upwards for argue. Whether NVIDIA will continue with GeForce 10 or motion to the next number remains to be seen. Equally of now, rumors point to the GTX 1080 Ti naming scheme but marketing division can decide to change it as done with previous series (GeForce 700 Kepler-Refresh). You tin can expect the Ti variant in early 2022 followed past the larger Titan release a few months subsequently.

NVIDIA GP104 - GeForce GTX 2080 and GeForce GTX 2070

Adjacent up, nosotros have ii more GP104 variants. The GeForce GTX 2080 is said to supercede the GTX 1080 with the same core config simply faster clocks. We talked about TSMC improving their 16nm process which volition guarantee faster clock speeds and better stability on Pascal cores. The GTX 2080 can characteristic clock speeds up to 2000 MHz for cadre and 12 GHz for GDDR5X retentiveness. Pricing is said to be around $499 US due to ease of manufacturing and better yields of GP104 while functioning would be boosted by 15%.

The GeForce GTX 2070 is said to go a core revision over the GTX 1070. We take seen NVIDIA offering amend core configs on their mobility version of the GTX 1070 core that has 2048 cores. The GTX 2070 could go the same route forth with faster clocks of 1700 MHz and GDDR5X memory clocked at x GHz. This carte du jour would deliver a 20% functioning boost over GTX 1070 while being priced at $349 U.s..

WCCF's Have on the GP104 Pascal Refresh Cards:

A GP104 refresh is least likely to happen but there's no reason to believe it won't happen at all. The GTX 2080 sounds like a minor boost over the GTX 1080 but the pricing can concenter some new users to the GeForce side. The GTX 2070, if it launches with these specs can exist a large win. Nosotros can see a large number of GTX 1060 owners or Maxwell users quickly hop over to Pascal if the toll and specifications of this production are aligned with what's existence speculated right now.

Yet, the GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 are very competitive solutions for the market right now with almost no competition in sight. Vega volition have to exist very competitive against these NVIDIA GP104 and GP102 parts for them to go the route of a full on Pascal Refresh in 2022. For Volta, nosotros don't look it in consumer market until mid of 2022.

NVIDIA GP106 - GeForce GTX 2060 Ti and GeForce GTX 2060

The GP106 refresh will come up in the form of GTX 2060 Ti and GTX 2060. These cards will replace the GTX 1060 half-dozen GB and GTX 1060 3 GB models. If these cards are indeed planned for launch, we volition see them in 2H of 2022. Specifications for both cards are same as the electric current ones merely await much higher clock speeds. Both variants will back up half dozen GB of GDDR5 retention and clock rates north of 1900 MHz. Functioning increase would be minimal but pricing would come downward by 10 percent.

WCCF's Take on the GP106 Pascal Refresh Cards:

A Pascal GP106 refresh was mentioned in the earlier leak but nosotros expect them to characteristic GDDR5X memory instead of GDDR5. Likewise, these parts will exist placed against Vega xi, which will be the smaller of the two Vega cores. Another road NVIDIA can take is switch over to GP104 with the side by side GTX 2060 cards. A cut downwardly variant that provides effectually 1664 or 1792 cores tin can offer decent performance with effectually x% deficit over the GTX 1070.

NVIDIA GP107 - GeForce GTX 2050

Finally, we have the GP107 Refresh which is known as the GTX 2050. This menu is said to characteristic same configuration as the GTX 1050 Ti with 768 CUDA cores but higher clocks of 1700 MHz and 8 GHz retentiveness. Pricing should be around $150 US.

WCCF'south Take on the GP107 Pascal Refresh Cards:

The specifications for this carte du jour seem out of identify. The GTX 1050 Ti is expected to heave around 1392 MHz while the GTX 2050 is said to clock effectually 1700 MHz. I don't expect we can see such a big clock difference from a core based on the same procedure node with little improvements. Of class, I don't know for sure but the other specifications might be truthful that is if this card ever launches.

This brings u.s.a. to the finish of the Pascal Refresh discussion. As pointed above, the entire commodity is purely based on speculation. We will be looking at new Pascal based launches in 2022 since Volta is expected in mid of 2022. That is at least for the consumer side. Only this doesn't hateful that NVIDIA may get to a total line refresh. I recall it's best nosotros wait information technology out till CES 2022 where NVIDIA is expected to announce new products. 2022 would as well meet the launch of AMD's Vega consumers GPUs that could trigger NVIDIA to launch a new product line based on improved Pascal architecture. Practise let us know in the comments beneath what you retrieve almost the speculated Pascal Refresh lineup.
