Description:
Where is the GeForce line-up headed next? Were soon to find out.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
Nvidia has teased a GeForce Beyond special broadcast which will take place at GTC, and presumably will usher in our first glimpse of next-gen Lovelace graphics cards .
Hype is being stoked on Twitter, and invitations sent out to the GeForce Beyond reveal which will be streamed on September 20 at 8am PT (11am ET, 4pm UK time). LOOK BEYOND #ProjectBeyond pic.twitter.com/PJ1qj4Mdei September 8, 2022 See more
Thats the second day of GTC, which is Nvidias conference for developers, and runs from September 19 to 22. That time is also when CEO Jensen Huang makes his keynote speech, so obviously, itll feature in that, which makes sense.
Given that its clearly labeled as a GeForce broadcast which is Nvidias
gaming line-up and that its about moving beyond what we have now, it surely must be some kind of initial unveiling of the next-generation RTX 4000 GPUs . Although nothing about RTX 4000 is mentioned explicitly, but we are told in
no uncertain terms that this is an event which we dont want to miss.
Analysis: A surprising but obviously welcome move
Whats a bit strange here is that typically, with GTC being a dev conference, it wouldnt feature gaming products, but rather more serious heavyweight
stuff. Still, as weve outlined above, it couldnt really be much clearer that something is going to be revealed about RTX 4000 without actually mentioning that.
About the only other theory weve seen floated online is that there are rumors of new RTX 3000 (current-gen) models, which would be a kind of GeForce
reveal, but to show them as part of Nvidia moving beyond and hype them to this extent makes absolutely zero sense. So we can safely rule that out.
What can we expect to see in the way of Lovelace GPUs, then? The smart money would be on the flagship, seeing as the RTX 4090 is rumored to be first out
of the door. Then again, weve also had a recent sighting of the RTX 4080 , too, and knowing that this graphics card is coming sooner rather than later would be the news a lot more folks would like to hear (given that some rumors have suggested this GPU might be delayed , maybe even until 2023).
