Nu när 4K-5K skärmar börjar finnas på marknaden kommer nog snart finnas ett behov att fylla med bättre grafikkort.
Edit: det verkar som det dröjer till 2016 innan det kommer grafikkort anpassade för dom upplösningarna.
Nvidia’s next-generation graphics processors are code-named “Pascal”. Based on the company’s roadmap that it demonstrated back in March, Pascal GPUs are due sometime in 2016. Next-generation graphics chips from Nvidia will support stacked high-bandwidth dynamic random access memory (DRAM) (SK Hynix’s high-bandwidth memory (HBM) or Micron’s hybrid memory cube (HMC)), unified memory addressing for CPU and GPU, NVLink interconnection for high-performance computing platforms as well as new graphics, compute and multimedia features that will be a part of DirectX 12, OpenGL 5.0 and other forthcoming application programming interfaces.
In 2016 displays with ultra-high-definition (UHD) resolutions like 4K (3840*2160, 4096*2160) or 5K (5120*2160) will get much more popular than they are today. Therefore, dramatically improved graphics processing horsepower of Pascal GPUs as well as extreme bandwidth provided by stacked HMC or HBM DRAM devices (we are talking about 1TB/s – 2TB/s bandwidth here) will be appreciated by the market.
Given the availability timeframe of the “Pascal” family of graphics processors, it is very likely that they will be manufactured using 16nm FinFET+ process technology at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Although Jen-Hsun Huang has not confirmed anything about Pascal, he did indicate that he is happy with the forthcoming fabrication processes.
“We are excited about the next generation FinFET [manufacturing technologies],” said Mr. Huang. “I can tell you that for the next couple of nodes, I feel pretty good about [them].”
