what's up guys I'm Dimitri with Harbor Canucks and this is Anthony from tweak town we're here GDC in San Jose an awesome show we got to see some really cool stuff but there was one major announcement that everybody was so excited to hear and that is Pascal me and Anthony here can talk to you about that everything you need to know about the future Pascal or the the current progress on the future of invidious next-gen architecture so the p100 the nvidia p100 stands for press cow oh yes what do you think about it a lot of tech crammed into a 16mm thin v process from TSMC Pascal architecture itself and hbf to page B m2 was a huge increase over HB m1 which was on AMD's Radeon r9 fury X and a huge increase on the gddr5 on every card that we've seen into an hour by height next 980ti 390 m/s and everything before big challenge for NVIDIA be challenge for TSM see I think it's been 5 years 5 years is a long time and then it's the longest time between no chips we went from 40 to 28 a lot quicker yeah and that is a huge phew it's a huge part it's a lot of work it's probably more work than they've ever had to do before that's why it's taken so long and this is something that we've been talking to Anthony about of potentially why they skip the 800 series for the best of graphics cards because they knew the Pascal was coming they knew that this is going to be a huge thing for Nvidia a huge thing for for graphics discrete graphics so you know we had 700 skipped 800 there was some stuff on mobile but then we went to 900 series and now the next thing is going to be in any speculation on the name uh G falls 10k I really like 10k even though it's going from 980 if you can't really go to 1080 as we've been talking it's going to be GeForce GTX 1080 is going to sound like 1080p it'll sound weak 10k sounds pretty powerful but what do you guys think leave your thoughts in the comments below but what would the Nvidia is Pascal next generation graphics lineup will be called but so 16mm really impressive stuff HBM to that stuff is like that's that's next-gen right there so gddr5 on the 980 to go and Titan X is about 330 gigabytes a second which is quite fast the HP m1 on the fury X is 512 gigabytes a second HBM towards our theoretical max of thousand twenty four gigabytes a second which is a terabyte per second three times faster than tight next part the fury acts had 5:12 and it didn't do that much more it didn't provide a huge increase but it was limited to four gigabytes so HBM one is limited to four gigabytes only maximum HP m2 can grow up to i think 32 gigabytes we won't see that on a g-force card enormously 8i maybe 16 or a g-force card which is still insane by having 32 gig of crazy fast next-gen Bram is still there line boy so not only are we jumping the leap and the memory tech because it's 3d stacked and everything but you're jumping in there's just massive capacity to well I guess it would be interesting to see what benefits we gain for gamers but VR man yes VR the gaming side you don't mind that and we've never had a Trinity of upgrades we've never had a no change of 16 mm and HBM 2 and an architectural change is normally one you know a year later another no allowed or another so hates room 2 is going to it's going to deliver more benefits than what we think in just from the transistors point of view so the 980ti has seven or eight billion billion eight billion and then the the P 100 GPU alone without the HBM is 1550 and then card with hpm is 150 billion transistors so 20x you're going from 8 billion to 15 billion on the GP 100 yep and that's mainly thanks to them being out of shrink the chip down and then add even more transistors to it so it doesn't sound impressive just going up by 100% 8 building into 15 you've got to remember they're doing it on something that's radically smaller so if I was doing it on the same size you probably would see 25 30 billion right so young like that but then getting something but that is smaller and cramming twice many transistors onto it is that's as a as a tech enthusiast I knowed it out at that I'm playing the VR will be a big part of Pascal anything that I haven't talked too much about their portion VR but it's going to be insane this year the demos that they're showing now versus what we've seen at sea yes and Computex in the past it's so fantastic to be able to experience those demos because you see the advancement in the the textures high-resolution everything well not only the graphics on the side of things but the latency side of things the framerate side of things right now right the VR ready PC sticker indicates 90 90 P 90 frames per second which is awesome it's way better than 30 fps it having consoles and the 60 FPS average it you get on PC gaming these days it's a it's a big leap and the new headsets much better the final versions of the rift are awesome the final version of the vive is even better and then a video showing off light-filled headsets here at UMC as well which is a whole new way of actually rendering the pixels to the headset to your eyes which you need to see if you need to see VR to be out understand it you need to see light foods we ought to understand that you have like another iteration it's just you think that you've seen everything as CS which is only three months ago and then you come here it's like ah okay there's been this new a new glass when you you can't keep up we're here every every event and we can't keep up so what can we expect for the consumer side of Pascal first of all Jensen announced that the Tesla P 100 is available for production today which means that the enterprise levels of course will be the first to cover that area but the consumer side hopefully we'll get that do you think we'll get the Pascal card in this year I think we'll see Pascal pour for copy text which is the end of May so any and the main one a half months well I think the performance will be huge I think maybe gtx 980ti if we're aiming at that type of card probably 1.5 x performance so another 50% on top for a single card so 1.5 X performance from a 980ti yes on a single card that uses less power that runs cooler and there's a lot smaller so we should go from an ODI being you know X big to a much smaller card maybe 2/3 the size kind of like an iron iron Theory X and just to give you a little wrap-up of what it's like to be actually in the show GDC so it's a bunch of seminars where you have first analysts and you know some low press like us to to see all this stuff and deliver this information to you but going to seminars can be extremely intimidating because it's just information over the head where if you're not in the Lavelle developing field it's a little bit out of our league but so much crazy and incredibly expensive server ax Hardware everywhere on the show floor what's your favorite part about GDC man just the hardware just saying so many graphics cards i way more love graphics cards and walking past racks and racks like we will pass these servers with up like 16 graphics cards of them with two GPUs both graphics cards 32 gig or the 32 GPUs in a single system but Canada's run Crysis you know no caramels no not at all not a row but that is probably the only show where we go around and see eight 980ti stacked on in one case and then you get a totally new sense of what it's like to to see that type of hardware and experience it and one interesting part about one PC that we saw it have 8 9 ATT eyes and it had three power supplies that were both what 12 over a thousand water oh three with 1600 watt 16 one of the weighing over a dozen down the power supply but then you realize the actual power supply that 1600 watts was a very thin tube yeah and then obviously it's a lot more expensive than the consumer side but you know that so cool that we never see these things on the consumer side of things which is understandably so but it's so cool be able to see that at 1600 watts like I think you're even understanding this was in it was it you saw any and I think I asked twice this is 1600 watts you know answer 1600 watts it was just incredibly small like it was loud I think they were worth $1,000 each yeah just for one six hundred watt passed by and you've got three of those and I GTX not reach guys but that would be our little conversation on Pascal will happen at GDC a little expectation the forecast on when we could potentially expect the consumer Pascal from in the video super excited to see when that comes out to market Anthony thank you so much for your insight Thank You Man don't forget to subscribe make sure to follow us on all social media for you know our continuous update on the Pascal guys I'm Dimitri with our Canucks this is anything we do in town thank you thanks so much for watching we'll see you in next video if yeah if we maintain like this very intimate close I don't know we're okay that's the what is it the deleted sings yeah yeah course I'll remember that for a long time
