The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1180 unveiled next month?

Science

An announcement at the European High Mbad dedicated to video games, on the land of the target audience, nothing more logical in the background. It must be said that the calendar has been a little packed these days and that everyone has been stamping behind the scenes for too long already. In late June, Nvidia canceled the conference on the new generation GPU consumer, which was to be held at the Cupertino Hot Chips Symposium, from August 19 to 21. The manufacturer will be very present at the show, but his ads should be limited to platforms for professionals, ie Xavier type SoC or technologies related to deep learning to the Artificial intelligence or robotics.

More recently, on June 23, Nvidia published a tweet celebrating the birthday of Alan Turing – speculation was going on for months about the name of the next gaming-oriented architecture we are definitely fixed. It is decidedly time for the chameleon brand to formalize its announcement, judging by the so-called "leaks" and hoaxes that feed the Web. We owe the last of them to a Vietnamese reseller, H2 Gaming, however rather famous, who published the sheet of a Asus ROG Strix GTX 1180 16 GB on its online catalog for a few hours, before retracting. The image is obviously wrong, a quick review of the box revealing the rude "photoshopage" of the previous wording (GeForce GTX 1080), moreover forgotten on the upper side.

Strongly that Nvidia officializes its new GPU family, if only to clarify the situation and permanently cut short all these speculations. Answer, perhaps, on August 21.
