Colleagues made several variants of the forecast for the characteristics GPUs of Volta generation that will find use in gaming graphics cards.
Three versions of the forecast were compiled, but used only two: relatively pessimistic (in the first table) and very optimistic (in the second table). First of all, colleagues explain that the 12-nm process technology does not give a noticeable increase in the density of transistors placement , because this is only a kind of 16-nm technology. For this reason, the increase in the number of functional blocks in the abstract graphics processor Volta will be accompanied by a noticeable increase in the area of the crystal - from 15% to 31%, if we consider the conditional flagship GV102.
According to colleagues, the number of stream processors will be increased by 40-50% compared to Pascal, if we are talking about GV102. This graphics processor will work with a 384-bit memory bus and use GDDR6. The average in the GV104 hierarchy will be satisfied with the 256-bit bus and the same memory type, and the GV106 will store GDDR5X in conjunction with the 192-bit bus. Related Products :
