DigiTimes report suggests the Nvidia Ampere GPUs launching in late 2020 may be replaced by 5 nm Hopper GPUs one year later

[Redaktion]

Apparently, Nvidia underestimated the impact of AMD's 7 nm GPUs and is now looking to phase out the upcoming Ampere GPUs faster, as the green team has already pre-booked an important part of TSMC's 5 nm production capacity for 2021, when the Hopper GPUs are expected to hit the market.

But does it really have to be a gaming GPU product?

Their dies are big^10 and early 5nm would be super expensive... unless it's MCM and parts are actually small - and MCM could change a lot when it comes to design. First designs could be no-gaming due to the unique nature of it (or time needed to adapt gaming software/drivers/windows stuff).

It could also be their ARM SoC (moar consoles and Switches), maybe some edge NPU or related to their robotics/cars (Nvidia Xavier/Jetson/alike).

What a fake AMD fanboy article.
As much as I like competition because it brings us new better products for less, AMD is still VERY far behind nvidia GPU wise and are not even able to beat a good old 1080ti with their newest card, let alone a 2080ti or titan.
Did they overtake Intel CPU wise? Yes.
Nvidia gpu wise? Still far behind.
