Jen-Hsun Huang Kicks Off NVIDIA’s 2016 GPU Technology Conference

[HardOCP News]

NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang will give the opening keynote at our seventh annual GTC, in Silicon Valley, Tuesday at 9 am Pacific. Artificial intelligence. Autonomous vehicles. Virtual reality. The hottest trends in technology right now all converge on the GPU, and that’s why we can’t wait to start our GPU Technology Conference.

Geforce x80 8-GB GDDR5x - $799 - 20% Faster than GTX980-Ti
Geforce x80-Ti 16GB HBM2 - $1299 - 40% faster than GTX980-Ti

Nope. All DDR5 cards. No GDDR5x.

 

[tetris42]

How about an update on Auto Stereo? It was announced in 2014 and they haven't said shit since, despite VR being out now!

At work. Is this in the video?

Educated Guess.

Probably not, seeing as how the video won't start for another 2 hours.

Ahh, I didn't see the "pacific" time!

Educated Guess.

Quite a big performance improvement on a basically a process shrink and power tuning? (at least that seems to be the speculation that I've read)

The guy's just throwing shit out his ass like everyone else.

 

[Stoly]

Given that Nvidia has never launched a consumer card in GTC I only expect Titan/Quadro/Tesla at this point. The rumors are strong on Titan using HBM2 I guess we'll now in a couple of hours.

 

[DPI]

All bow to Jen-Hsun, the glorious one.

That goes doubly so for AMD minion.

Pretty Much Lol....

[Sedriss]

I must admit I am tickled with anticipation. Hoping for some good info.

 

[Stoly]

It's late already

 

[socK]

daddy's ready

my new card hunger is currently nearing insatiable.

 

[drklu]

Yeah I could really go for a replacement card as well, my buddy is probably getting tired of me using his 770

 

[Stoly]

Its starting now

 

[HardOCP News]

The GTC 2016 opening keynote we told you about earlier today is now live. We've embedded the livestream below for your convenience.

 

[Armenius]

The Livestream crapped out on me a few minutes ago. The Ustream might work, but I can't load it at work.

NVIDIA Events

 

[FrgMstr]

And the stream crashed! Boo!

Thanks for the link!

I am going to wait for the CliffsNotes version later today.

 

[cageymaru]

 

[Armenius]

And... the Livestream is back.

As a fellow current nVidia user, I will recommend that we jump over to AMD with Polaris. I think nVidia is going to pull another GTX280/GTX260.

mostly vr demos so far

 

[Cr4ckm0nk3y]

Kudos to Nvidia for live streaming the The Martian!

 

[Armenius]

Cringeworthy reactions from Steve Wozniak experiencing VR...

 

[Crimson]

Sounds like Woz is about to puke lol

 

[oldmanbal]

wozniac puts on vr headset, within 30 seconds he says he's feeling ill, within 2 minutes he says he's dizzy and gonna fall out of his chair, CEO for Nvidia comments, 'Woz that's not helpful'

hilarity

I nearly fell out of my chair when he said that. JHH sounded a little upset.

 

[Cr4ckm0nk3y]

Cringeworthy reactions from Steve Wozniak experiencing VR...

The entire conversation between Jen-Hsun and Woz was cringe-worthy.

They sounded like two teen girls having a conversation over skype. I would have paid to see Woz fall forward into the camera from being dizzy.

 

[BreezeDM]

This is bull, he is wearing a jacket. I can't see how tight his shirt is. I fully expected him to showcase a giant leap in tight shirt technology.

 

[HardUp4HardWare]

ZZZZzzzzzzz

 

[HardUp4HardWare]

All this saving the world stuff is great but most of us only care about wasting time on games.

 

[samops03]

It really doesn't look like they will be talking about any new video cards

 

[HardUp4HardWare]

He is about to announce a new vape mod
