[SemiAccurate] upcoming Nvidia chip has a problem that doesn't have a fix as of now

Microsoft? I don't know maybe its the project digits chips... that Nvidia may have had plans to use for Windows Arm systems? I mean it is possible that Microsoft can't make a proper scheduler work?
I don't know of Nvidia would really be too upset by that I mean I'm not even convinced they will be selling windows arm machines and not some form of Linux.

If its anything related to Rubin ya it makes no sense to blame MS for anything.
 
There has been a couple of very low information type of article here, this is article that say an article exist...

Is this about a 5060 having Windows driver issues ? A laptop one ? A microsoft datacenter ? who knows...

It does. Its also a little more then a rumor at this point that Nvidia was planning a consumer launch of digits (or a consumer variation anyway) in Q4. Presumably they were going to be shipping systems using Windows ARM.
Rumors have had them working with Valve as well. Who knows though. Just speculating as Microsoft seems to be the scapegoat. Considering how badly Microsoft continues to screwup x86 CPU scheduling requiring dumb things like core parking still. It does make sense not being able to properly handle a Nvidia APU with complex core configurations could be a major issue that would be unfix able by Nvidia as there is no issue with the hard ware.

I don't know if that is what is going on. I hope it pushes Nvidia to properly go all in on a Linux consumer launch.

On the 5060ti... combined with the new driver that isn't properly reporting temps under windows? I don't know its not a crazy thought as well. Its possible. Though those are already shipping. But who knows maybe the leak info is old.

Wasn't digits (now called Spark) always been a consumer facing product, they already took pre-order/reservation open to the public I think, same for the competitor using that chips:

Ai dev is so strongly Linux based and those machines are more to connect to from your computer than directly use, they will come with Nvidia DGX os (linux).

It could be, a microsoft windows arm-Nvidia version, but if it is that one, why say almost assuredly Nvidia fault..., that would be likely candidate too.

Well depends on your definition of consumer I guess.
Digits as you say is AI focused. As such Linux is the more logical OS over windows.

When I say they have a consumer launch coming up. I mean for normal mass market use. Laptops, gaming handhelds... mini PCs. Rumors have said windows arm, other rumors have said SteamOS. The SteamOS rumors though to be fair mostly stem from Valve themselves making changes to both Proton and DXVK that seem to be bringing up ARM support. (may not be related to Nvidia at all). Valve also has VR products coming up it seems and those probably use ARM chips. So Nvidia shipping something with SteamOS may just be someones fever dream. It makes the most sense that Nvidia if they are planning a gaming laptop powered by Nvidia hardware would be using ARM windows.

Why it would be Microsofts fault? I mean why do AMD CPUs require core parking in windows? Under Linux the Linux scheudler knows exatly what to do, the gains from core parking in Linux are so ludicarisly small (and sometimes costs you performacne parking cores as one would expect) it doesn't make sense to bother doing it, as the scheudler mostly knows exactly what to do. Intel we all know solved the windows is a terrible OS issues with their big Little chips by building in their own thread scheudling right into the hardware. Intel shouldn't have had to do that, in fact it makes almost no sense to do that.... accept that Intel knew MS would be incapable of doing it properly. AMD has been too nice to say hey MS you are fucking us here. Nvidia isn't as nice, if they are planning a ARM windows chip... its going to require some advance scheudling and Nvidia will probably blame MS. (and imo if that is the case they might be right to do so)

Agreed. The fact that Semi-Accurate never unpaywalls its old articles, even when long past commercial relevance has caused me to discount their headlines 100%.

I was skeptical of them for many years. What finally caused me to give up all hope was when they posted an article to prove how right their past predictions were. Every prediction from years ago that they cited as proof was still behind a paywall with just the standard uselessly clickbait title and intro visible.

SA did call out Intel's tech troubles very early. Even though the details were paywalled, they did provide a useful straw in the wind.
So I'm more inclined to believe there is some substance here.

The boy who cried wolf eventually was eaten by one. That didn't mean the villagers were wrong to have long ago stopped paying any attention to him.
 
I'm trying to find whatever statement Nvidia made that this SemiAccurate article is commenting about.

SemiAccurate is saying that it is delayed and Nvidia is blaming Microsoft, but I can't find anything from Nvidia about it, and everything else I find is just referencing the SemiAccurate article.
Is this actually a thing or AI-generated Clickbait?

I've never seen any indications that SA is using AI clickbait. AI BS is race to the bottom garbage, SA's very expensive access prices are going after the other end of the market.

That said, as noted above, never unpaywalling their old articles makes it impossible for anyone without deep pockets to evaluate if SA's alleged insider leaks are valid or not.

I googled Microsoft & Nvidia. This is what I came up with:

  • Future Blackwell Ultra GPU VMs: Microsoft plans to introduce virtual machines based on NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPUs on Azure later in 2025.
  • Future RTX PRO 6000 Server Edition on Azure: Microsoft will also bring the performance of the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition to its Azure platform.

But nothing about delays except from articles months ago about them being delayed until early 2025, which is essentially now.

Unless the article is essentially saying Microsoft has bought so many of them for this workstation initiative that it’s being delayed for everyone else while Nvidia meets those orders. And Nvidia is having a hard time meeting those orders because AIB’s keep dicking around with their inventory playing dodge the tariffs.
