Calm down: we are in 10 series, then the next generation would not be the 20 series? Why then are we talking about the 30 series, expected to reach the consumer in 2018? We explain: the 20 series will be an upgrade of the 10 line, using the same Pascal architecture. Naturally, it will bring superior performance, somewhere between 15 and 20%, according to rumors. But it won't come with anything new, using the same lithograph, amount of memory, and dedicated memory technologies. GDDR5/GDDr5X. In the 30 series, there will be an architecture change, with the introduction of Volta. 2m1i2a
There will be 3 Volta chips: GV104, GV102 e GV110. The GV104 will give rise to the GeForce GTX 3070 e GeForce GTX 3080, which will replace the boards GTX 2070 e GTX 2080, respectively, marking the transition from second generation Pascal to Volta. The expected amount of memory is up to 16 GB of memory dedicated, most likely GDDR6 with interface 256 bits and maximum speeds of up to 16 Gbps (against 10 Gbps do GDDR5X).
New generation of Titan X 5s6y4a
Already the chip GV102, the most powerful, can bring up to 32 GB of dedicated HBM2 memory. This with a maximum bandwidth also of 16 Gbps, or 512 GB per second theoretical maximum. The technology itself is easily scalable, and as we have a long time until launch, it is possible to get up to 1TB/second of memory bandwidth. Considering these specifications, it is quite likely that the GV102 will give rise to the successor to the Titan X. The 32GB amount might seem like a stretch these days, but we're talking about 2018, especially considering that GPUs evolve faster than Us.
