Yesterday evening, the official account of NVIDIA GeForce Weibo posted a Weibo message with the following content: Get Started Now! GeForce RTX 30 Series graphics cards are now fully available!
At the same time, Nvidia officials also said that since 0:00 on April 15, consumers who purchase designated model series graphics cards (subject to the product detail page logo) from ASUS, Rainbow, Yingchi, Gigabyte, MSI, Mingxuan and other brands through JD.com can enjoy the price guarantee until June 18 special price guarantee service; if there is a price reduction during the event, consumers can apply for a refund price difference directly through the JD website or the JD App "My JD" - "Price Protection" in accordance with the JD platform price insurance rules.
This news also made many netizens comment, saying that the graphics cards released in 2020 are finally fully available in 2022.
Let's take a look at what graphics cards NVIDIA officially recommends.
It can be seen that the official recommended high-end graphics cards, the lowest of which is also RTX 3070Ti, priced at 4999 yuan, but the price of these graphics cards is basically higher than the official suggested price.
In addition, Bill Dally, chief scientist and senior vice president of research at Nvidia, recently said that the company has begun designing chips using an automatic standard cell layout generator called NVCell.
This AI can not only find out the errors in the layout of human design chips, but also design chips themselves, and the efficiency is much faster than humans. It is understood that NVCell only needs two GPUs to basically complete the workload of a team of 10 people in a year in a few days.
"NVCell has done two things for us: one is that it saves a lot of labor," he said. A group of about 10 people would take a year to transplant a new technology library. Now we can do this with a few GPU running for a few days. Humans can then process those 8% of the units that don't do it automatically. In addition, we can eventually get a better design. As a result, this is both labor-saving and better than human design. ”
