GeForce RTX 5000 Series in Latest TSMC Nodes Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 4000 series GPUs are already among the best graphics cards on the market. Nevertheless, rumors of next-generation GeForce RTX 5000 series (Blackwell) GPUs are already emerging, even if we don’t seem too keen on this upgrade path. Our friendly and close leaker kopite7kimi, who has a proven track record, has provided us with details regarding the successor to Ada lovelace. According to this leaker, the GeForce RTX 5000 series graphics cards will reportedly use TSMC’s 3nm process node. The current GeForce RTX 4000 series GPUs use a 5nm process node, so the logical next step would be 3nm. At the 3nm process node, TSMC promises up to 15% performance improvement compared to the 5nm process node at the same power level and transistor count. In terms of power savings, the foundry claims that the 3nm process node can reduce power consumption by as much as 30%. But what’s impressive regarding TSMC’s 3nm process node is that the die size is estimated to be regarding 42% smaller than the 5nm process node. So it would be interesting to see this improvement reflected in Blackwell’s silicon. For example, the AD102 that powers the flagship GeForce RTX 4090 is a massive 609 mm² die. The GA102 that Nvidia used for the previous GeForce RTX 3090 Ti was Samsung’s 8nm process node and measured 628 mm². However, this time, Nvidia is said to be sticking to TSMC, making the transition from 5nm to 3nm even more interesting. GeForce RTX 5000 series graphics cards are said to support DisplayPort 2.1. Nvidia is late to the game, as AMD has already adopted DisplayPort 2.1 in the chipmaker’s existing Radeon RX 7000 series products like the Radeon RX 7900 XTX. Nvidia’s current GeForce RTX 4000 series graphics cards only have DisplayPort 1.4a connectivity. AMD’s implementation differs between its consumer and workstation lineups. The Radeon RX 7000 series supports UHBR13.5, giving you access to 54 Gbit/s of bandwidth. Meanwhile, the W7000 series fully supports UHBR20, with a maximum bandwidth of 80 Gbit/s. Unfortunately, kopite7kimi’s comment is vague and does not specify which standards Nvidia can use with Blackwell. Other rumors suggest that GeForce RTX 5000 series products will feature a PCIe 5.0 interface, which is overkill for mainstream graphics cards. What’s more likely is that Blackwell will continue to use the 16-pin power connector, but perhaps rely on a revised 12V-2×6 version. This 12V-2×6 standard might result in more secure interconnects, with Nvidia remaining largely silent on the 12VHPWR meltdown fracas at the expense of consumers, other than generally blaming user error. There are high expectations. Contrary to Nvidia’s conclusion and the opinions of several others in the industry, one of the many professional repair technicians who receives several damaged RTX 4090s per month believes that the main root cause is the connector; He stated that third-party adapters are important contributors and emphasized that user error is one possibility, if not another. It’s always a good idea to be aware of industry-wide oversights like this. It would be great if Nvidia and other companies adopting the standard emphasized the ATX 5.0 specification and made third-party cables, expansions, and adapters safe. At this point, nothing is certain regarding Blackwell’s SKUs. Of course, there are rumors regarding more cores and GDDR7 memory for the GeForce RTX 5000 series, but for now, take them with a grain of salt. Source: Tom’s Hardware – Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 Blackwell GPUs rumored to come with TSMC 3nm and DisplayPort 2.1 — AMD already offers the standard on the current Radeon RX 7000 series Explanation: Next-generation Geforce, RTX5000, Blackwell information auxiliary power standard continues to be 12VHPWR However, the revised version, 12V-2×6, is expected to be adopted. It seems that it has already been secretly adopted in current GPUs, but we apologize to those who purchased it without knowing it. Looking at what various people have said on X, there are no problems reported in Japan, so it seems that there will be no problem even if the secret standards are changed. That’s good (bitter smile) Do you feel good regarding it, for those of you who bought it without knowing? (bitter smile) Well, that’s all I can say, let’s look at more information. It’s certain that TSMC3nm will be adopted. , if the number of transistors is the same, the die area will be 42% and the performance will be improved by 15%.GA102…10,752AD102…18,432GB202…24,576The number of CUDA cores is as above. AD102-GA102=7,680GB102-AD102=6,324Unfortunately, the increase in the number of CUDA cores is smaller than at Ada Lovelace.As a percentage, if AD102 is 1, GB202:AD102:GA102=1.333:1:0.583 , both the number and percentage increase from Ampere to Ada Lovelace.This is also said to be the largest performance jump in nVIDIA history, so DLSS4 will likely bring regarding a considerable performance improvement.The number of transistors is not specified. It’s hard to speculate, but there may be a lot of work done internally.The reason I’m so bullish on nVIDIA is that AI/ML software will improve performance more than the hardware. Probably.Competitive company AMD has just finally implemented frame generation with FSR3, but there is a possibility that they will be able to make a difference with DLSS4.Intel has not yet implemented frame generation.What will happen in the future? , it seems that the overall level of completeness, including drivers and software around AI/ML, will determine the quality of the product.In this case, Radeon, which is weak in software, will be in a lot of trouble, and the level of completeness as a product is still low. This means that Intel, which is not at the starting line with AMD and nVIDIA products, is having a hard time.In addition, AMD failed to design Navi41/42 with the next generation RDNA4, and only Navi43 (= RX8600 equivalent) is available. It is said that the next generation RTX5090, RTX5080, and RTX5070 may rise in price significantly.Since there is no competition, nVIDIA will not have any problems no matter how much the price is.AMD’s GPU Radeon series Radeon 7000 series SAPPHIRE ¥288,800 (As of 2023/11/18 10:15:15 Amazon research – Details) SAPPHIRE ¥148,322 (As of 2023/11/18 10:16:31 Amazon research – Details) SAPPHIRE ¥42,500 ( As of 2023/11/18 10:18:48 Amazon research – details) Radeon RX 6X50 series SAPPHIRE ¥83,333 (As of 2023/11/18 15:32:02 Amazon research – details) Radeon RX 6000 series SAPPHIRE ¥35,000 (2023/ As of 11/18 13:16:13 Amazon research – Details) SAPPHIRE ¥29,800 (As of 2023/11/18 09:45:19 Amazon research – Details) SAPPHIRE ¥27,878 (As of 2023/11/18 15:32:03 Amazon Research – Details) * SAPPHIRE is a manufacturer specializing in AMD Radeon and is a reference manufacturer for Radeon.
