INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
With Microsoft announcing the Xbox Series X's specs and placing emphasis on its 12 teraflops performance, it seems like everyone is paying
And now we've seen a leaked benchmark that may hint towards what the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 may look like
However, since teraflops aren't necessarily the most useful metric, it's lucky that the benchmarks for these unidentified graphics cards
Following past Nvidia conventions, that would translate to 7,552 CUDA Cores in the former and 6,912 CUDA Cores in the latter.That quantity
of CUDA Cores would certainly set these new graphics cards up for high performance, well beyond what's seen in the current lineup for
benchmarks, the reported specs, and what that means for the potential performance
For one, their measurement of FP32 performance is based on an assumption Nvidia may be doubling its floating points units in the next
that could still ramp up dramatically before these graphics cards ever hit the streets
Even if the bigger card is just at 17 TFLOPs right now, increasing its 1.11GHz clock speed to match the Titan RTX's 1.77GHz would boost
its floating point performance to over 26 TFLOPs.As spicy as that is, the specs and performance of these chips don't have that familiar
scent of a consumer-oriented, gaming graphics card
In particular, the 24GB and 48GB of VRAM stand out
professional cards that will just give us more hints at what will come down to the consumer level
With any luck, Nvidia won't keep us waiting too much longer, as an announcement of the Nvidia's next-gen GPUs at GTC is expected later
