Recently, we've heard a lot of rumors about Nvidia's next-generation GeForce RTX 40 and AMD Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards. On Sunday, @Kopite7Kimi speculated that the AD102 GPU would inherit the PCIe 4.0 interface. The next day, however, Moore's Law Is Dead added another detail, namely the Lovelace gaming GPU or the N4 craft node with TSMC. If so, green factories will gain some advantages over the red team RDNA 3 GPU.
Many had expected Nvidia to use the TSMC 5nm process for the upcoming Lovelace gaming GPU, and the N4 node mentioned by MLID was a revision of the foundry's 5nm process.
In late March, Nvidia revealed some details about Hopper GPUs for the data center market, though new rumors have hinted that Lovelace GPUs will use the same advanced process nodes.
As a well-known PC technology analyst, MLID has a fairly reliable track record of breaking news, so the credibility of new rumors is still quite high.
With the support of TSMC's N4 process, the RTX 40 series Ada Lovelace gaming graphics cards are expected to deliver the ultimate performance experience.
In contrast, AMDRDNA 3 graphics cards are expected to use 5nm and 6nm process nodes combined with efficient MCM multichip solutions.
As for whether the Radeon RX 7000 series can surpass the GeForce RTX 40 product line with its technical advantages, it remains to be tested.
