New Nvidia GPU Details

All eyes were on Nvidia ahead of its Global Technology Conference, which welcomed roughly 16,000 members. However, according to Reuters, Nvidia had already given developers a sneak preview of its latest generation of AI GPUs before the show. Prior to its annual conference, Nvidia showcased its upcoming Blackwell AI GPUs. Significant advancements were made to the firm's CUDA platform as well. Nvidia sees its Blackwell GPUs as the next evolution in the industry, calling it a big "AI weapon" of the market.

Specifically speaking, Blackwell GPUs will feature HBM3e memory, upgraded specs, and other enhanced features. According to reports, the new generation of GPUs may utilize a chiplet (MCM) design or a classic design for the time being, then move on to a multi-package revision in 2025. Reports claim the new GPUs may replace the H100 in terms of popularity. The accelerator will supposedly feature better memory capabilities as well as 16-Hi stacks. Artificial intelligence will undoubtedly continue to be a focus for the company, something Nvidia was actually sued over earlier in 2024.

There are a plethora of options when it comes to choosing an Nvidia GPU, with the 4090 series holding a tight grip on top of a lot of gamer's wishlists. The best Nvidia 4090 GPUs are simply unmatched by competitors such as Intel and AMD when it comes to performance.

As part of this new shift into AI, several upcoming games will use AI technology to further engage players, thanks to new generative tools from Nvidia. World of Jade Dynasty from developer Perfect World Games will use Nvidia's stunning Audio2Face toolset to produce high-detailed lip-syncing capabilities. This impressive, new-age Nvidia technology will also be used to accurately portray facial movements for other games like RealityArts Studio and Toplitz Productions' Unwake, indicating that artificial intelligence is here to stay. Along with hardware, Nvidia also maintains several pieces of useful software, such as GeForce Now.
