No New Nvidia Gaming GPUs, GTX 1180 Missing @ Computex 2018

2018-06-04
just quickly before we get in today's video a big thank you to our sponsors for supporting this year's Computex coverage check out course has fancy new vengeance RGB memory and if you're after a new rig that won't send you broke MSI's got you covered check out the latest msi gaming pc setups and learn how you can build an incredible new gaming rig that's light on your wallet make sure you check out the link below in the video description welcome back to how we run box Tim and myself are now entire one hopefully this will be the first of many Computex related videos sure hasn't officially started yet today's Monday but we did just spend an hour and a half at the Nvidia press event yeah they spent a lot of time speaking about their deep learning staff their AI technologies a lot of their hardware platforms related to that but Steve I think the most disappointing thing for our viewers is that they they didn't announce any new GeForce consumer graphics cards so and they were asked a few times they are us and they said that'll be a party for a future date they didn't say when that future date will be or give any hints at all so unfortunately no GeForce news at all nothing about the new GPUs coming up so we're still expecting them and about probably about two months time yeah well we saw recently there was that news story that appeared about the hot chips conference is happening on August 20th there was sort of a schedule released for that and there was a particular event there that was going to be Nvidia detailing the next mainstream GPU they have since removed that listing from the hot chips sort of event listing so that kind of indicates to us that and video will at least be willing to talk about their next-generation GPUs in August but certainly today they were very keen on avoiding talking about GPUs and instead talking about all their their drive compute their AI their deep learning and yeah certainly certainly disappointing for those guys out there who will still have to wait a couple of months potentially maybe July when they will start announcing that sauce that sort of thing we should mention that Jensen was asked quite a few times when the next-generation GPUs will arrive he did at one point say a long time from now but we think that was an exaggeration on his behalf to try and stop the media asking the question over and over again at least we hope that's the anyway so considering that nvidia hasn't announced anything officially and they did sound like it was going to happen later in the we're not expecting to hit the showroom floor in the morning and see their partners like msi or soos have any kind of cards or even hints of new cards coming out yeah it seems like the the leaks and stuff for suggesting that Nvidia will be releasing her founders additional at least launching and announcing her founders edition card first currently that we don't really like to speculate about this sort of thing but it does sound like July maybe with founders Edition cards then and then partner cards later but that's obviously still a couple of months away so that explains why when we hit the show fall tomorrow we're not going to see those partner cards very unlikely that's right so I do have one question for you Steve if we're not seeing you know new next-generation cards from Nvidia at the show are we going to be seeing anything interesting in the sort of graphics card space from Nvidia at Computex this year well with no new GPUs announced I seriously doubt we're going to see any Pascal cards it's just true late in the product cycles so there won't be any new 1080 tea eyes or anything like that or 1070 tea eyes so I don't think there'll be any new GPUs at all or graphics cards rather and I don't think they'll be anything on AMD side either at least for Vega 56 and 64 yeah at least for their consumer lines that's right I think a lot of the stuff and video is telling us before the event was sort of more focused on their their g-sync HDR monitors which are just starting to hit the market this month I think and they did spend a bit of the press conference talking about max q laptops as well being one of their key focuses but as we keep saying in this video a number of times now definitely the new graphics cards is not something that we're going to be seeing unfortunately one of the other things that were shown at this sort of press event was in videos ray tracing technology now that isn't a new technology something that they have shown previously but it still remains quite a way away for games and sort of you know consumer focused cards the simulations that they were running we're on I think it was four very $170,000 system if you guys want to take advantage of that there's no games but yeah and the city over in video is definitely talking about it was in fact asked a question about when RTX would be coming to those sort of single card consumer cards and it's definitely was reader rating that that's still a long time away just shove that sort of high-end $70,000 technology into a single GPU not it's not going to be next-generation it's probably not going to be the generation after it's a cool technology to show off and it looks impressive but don't expect to see at new games anytime soon yeah so the one thing that Nvidia did announced at their press conference was the Jetson Xavier sort of robotics chip that you would put into robotics devices in the future they announced a dev kit for that that will cost 1,300 us early access for that is in August apparently it's the largest project in Nvidia history it's designed for all sorts of you know automated intelligence you know robots that sort of things sort of a neat little chip that you can put in an unusal of invidious deep learning libraries for that apparently it has eight arm cause in it it runs at about 30 watts of power and it's equivalent to at least in in videos words a ten thousand dollar workstation for those sort of applications so it's pretty cool but it's definitely not the sort of thing that would be up a lot of the people out there early in terms of consumer graphics or anything like that definitely more for the developers but still nonetheless a bit cool so not super exciting news to kick start the show with we were hoping to tell you guys about some new GPUs but it is what it is yeah tomorrow though we will be hitting the showroom floor as the show officially starts Computex 2018 and we have a few great meetings lined up and we do have some new products to show you guys that will be in tomorrow's video all right so thanks to everyone for watching a little update on nvidia at Computex 2018 don't forget to like this video and subscribe to watch the rest of our Computex coverage as we get through that in the next couple of days I guess we will catch you next time what's your head yeah don't get you Steve so Steve did you hit your head on these things are used in you to talk this yeah
