Nvidia's next-generation presentation "Volta" graphics chip architecture in May May, which first appeared in the gv100 chip was firmly introduced into the NVIDIA Tesla V100 graphics card targeting data centers. While the GPU-specific will not appear in the Games products, Nvidia is expected to offer new graphics cards to the gaming market, possibly named "Torung", during the GPU Technology Conference (GCI) starting from March 26.
It may be confusing news and rumors by looking at the "amp" floating last week. The amp is supposed to be secure and loaded to replace the current NVIDIA based on Pascal GeForce 10 series graphics cards starting with the GV104 chip that serves as a new high-end solution. The cards are expected based on this specific chip to go retail on April 12, which is located in the classroom with reports that Nvidia will introduce a new family of games products in the GMC 2018.
He said, GV104 will power the supposedly GeForce 2080 and 2070. Meanwhile, the gv102 can address the high-end market enthusiasts like the upcoming Titan card that he described as the gt2080 Ti. Gv106 can target mid-range solutions while gv107 and gv108 serve customer oriented budget. But that leaves two questions: What about Volta and what's up with Torong?
Codename Torong stems from a Reuters article that covers the quarterly results of the NVIDIA conference calling with analysts and journalism last week. This article focuses on the NVIDIA struggle to keep the graphics cards in the securities of the players, and the miners are encryption that drives prices by draining supplies. Chief financial officer Collette Chris said that games that are in the past are low.
This leads us to the three symbolic names: Volta, AMP, and Torung. What we know is that the new architecture in Nvidia Volta resides in the v100 Tesla graphics card. We also know that Nvidia usually does not create different children for different markets. If anything, Nvidia creates a single generation architecture and produces a handful of different chips, tweaked on the basis that the design for multiple markets.
Everything is going forward at least still a Volta. But the amp and Torung code names can be used to describe the cards to two different markets due to the new nature: gaming and mining encryption. The previous rumors referred to the AMP symbol card games named at the time that toring signals are likely to mining encryption cards. These names can also be reversed, but it is very unlikely.
? The codename Torung stems from now Torung, the world of computer English, biologists, mathematical mathematics, and cryptographic analyst. Using its name for a class of plugins in custom graphic cards for mining encryption makes it logical due to its work on encryption. It helped the encrypted messages sent by the Nazis, contributing to the Allies winning the Second World War.
Given the extra games that focus on the cards are at all low times, this scenario based on the three-tier Volta is probably what the Nvidia plans to discuss in March March. There are also speculation that Nvidia has completely revoked the amp codename because it is used by an ARM server based on the same name maker. This does not matter giving the Volta still the GPU infrastructure while the amp and the Thuringia names just highlight two dominant audience focus.
