Produkcja układów Kepler dla GeForce GTX 600 rozpoczęta
29.06.2011
Cytuj
Dopiero co Nvidia skończyła wydawać wszystkie układy z serii GTX 500 a już dochodzą do nas pogłoski o tym, że rozpoczęła się już produkcja próbek inżynieryjnych układów Kepler.
Posunięcie Nvidii w tym przypadku jest całkiem zrozumiałe gdyż wiemy, że już od jakiegoś czasu AMD produkuje swoje testowe układy z serii HD 7000 wykonane w 28nm procesie technologicznym. GTX 600 będą wykonane w tym samym procesie technologicznym co karty konkurencji. Zgodnie z założeniami producenta, ich wydajność w operacjach zmiennoprzecinkowych o podwójnej precyzji w przeliczeniu na 1 W, ma wzrosnąć 3 – 4 razy w stosunku do układów Fermi. Oznacza to, że karty będą bardziej energooszczędne od poprzedniej serii. Według nieoficjalnych informacji wiemy, że rdzenie mają nosić oznaczenie GF1x9.
Pierwsze karty z serii GTX 600 mają pojawić się w czwartym kwartale bieżącego roku i w pierwszej kolejności mają być to najwydajniejsze jednoprocesorowe konstrukcje. Pojawią się one stosunkowo późno gdyż konkurencyjne układy AMD Radeon z rodziny Southern Islands mają pojawić się już w trzecim kwartale tego roku.

Early intelligence
We got word that Kepler, Nvidia's successor to Fermi architecture and its first 28nm part won’t launch until Q1 2012.
Our sources from the Far East are telling us that it’s the maturity of the 28nm process is to blame and that the chip could theoretically make it to very late Q4 2011 launch, but sources close to company are telling them that it would not make much sense to launch it that late in the quarter.
ATI is still on schedule to launch its 28nm chip in 2011, other sources are telling us, and ATI’s chip will be affected by the same issues, mainly the poor yields of the 28nm process. Even if ATI launches in 2011, very late Q3 or first half of Q4 2011 were the dates that we’ve heard, the chip wont really be massively available until some point in 2012.
Transitioning to a new process in the graphics word is always painful, and it took TSMC a lot to go from 65nm to 40nm and now, they are again faced with a difficult transition to 28nm and bad yields for quarters to come.

2-3 percent of sales in Q4
TSMC has confirmed that it will start churning out 28nm chips by the end of the year.
The foundry plans to start commercial production sometime in Q3 and 28nm wafers should make up between 2 and 3 percent of total wafer sales in Q4.
TSMC claims Nvidia and AMD are sticking to their 28nm launch schedules. Nvidia is planning to start production of its first Kepler chips this year, but availability is not expected until early 2012, just as we reported last week. AMD’s Southern Islands generation will probably show up at the same time.
Of course, it will take some time to ramp up production and build up significant inventories for launch. However, analysts believe TSMC will have a lot easier time ramping up 28nm production and improving yields compared to the transition to 40nm, since the previous transition required equipment upgrades. It seems TSMC boffins have gotten the hang of new equipment in the meantime.

Jak wiadomo w związku z problemami TSMC produkcja nowych układów opóźni się, aczkolwiek firma zapewnia że część 28nm jednostek zobaczymy już pod koniec tego roku. Nvidia planuje zacząć produkcję chipów Kepler w tym roku, ale zakupić je będziemy mogli dopiero na początku 2012. Wygląda na to że jednostki AMD i zielonych wyjdą w mniej więcej tym samym czasie.

We have already talked about it, but it looks like AMD's Southern Islands can and will beat Nvidia’s Kepler to the shops.
According to the latest information we managed gather, Kepler should start production this year, most likely in Q4 2011, but the actual GPU and cards based on it won’t hit the market before Q1 2012. This is at least one-quarter slip from Nvidia’s long term plan, but again the GPU should be there in time to sell together with Ivy Bridge CPUs. Ivy Bridge, the first 22nm CPU, is expected in March or April and Nvidia is expected to have both desktop and mobile chip launched before by then. However, Nvidia will be late for the holiday shopping season.
On the other hand, AMD is reportedly on time to launch its Southern Islands generation late this year and some reports even claim that all is in line for a September launch.
Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang recently said that Nvidia is better prepared for 28nm transition, but traditionally it was never easy to go from one design node to another.
Other sources close to the company also wanted to underline that despite the fact that Nvidia might be late to the game, overall they expect that Kepler 28nm can win against what Southern Islands have to offer. As always with such claims, a grain of salt is a must. It is still too early in the game and it’s anyone’s guess who will win the first 28nm round.

285 Beta driver reveals 610M and GT 630M
It looks like Nvidia's upcoming series will be called the Geforce 600 series after all. According to details leaked in the latest 285 Beta drivers, we now know that at least two mobile chips will have a pleasure of taking a name from the Geforce 600 series.
According to a post over at VR-Zone, two new strings carry the name Geforce 610M and Geforce GT 630M. Following the recent rumours that one of the first Nvidia engineering sample of Kepler is actually the GK107 GPU, it might be possible that the GT 630M is actually this chip and it is possible that Nvidia will be pushing the so called bottom-to-top release, or to be precise, we will first see some entry level and mainstream chips.

Najnowsze sterowniki BETA z serii 285.XX wspierają już pierwsze układy GeForce 6XX, a są to nimi chipy mobilne 610M oraz GT 630M. Wiadomo już na 100% że nadchodząca seria będzie nosiła nazwę kodową 600. Idąc dalej tym tropem możemy wywnioskować iż Nvidia ma już działające prototypy chipów GK107. Wygląda na to że zielony gigant planuje wprowadzić na rynek najpierw słabsze jednostki pnąc się do góry.

Jensen Huang, the fearsome leader of Nvidia, doesn’t talk about the unreleased products, but he has decided to share with investors that Kepler, Nvidia’s new 28nm GPU will go into production soon.
He didn’t said when will we see it available as notebook, desktop, professional or computational part, but he mentioned that it should be more power aware than Fermi chips, which really isn’t setting the bar very high. This will make it a good match for all growing notebook market segment and Optimus platform, but we believe that Nvidia is doing everything that is in its power to beat the Southern Islands of AMD.
Still, we don’t expect to see Kepler this year as 28nm production is not that mature, and these chips are complex. However, at the same time we believe that, at least for the notebook product line, Nvidia plans to launch it around Ivy Bridge launch, that is expected in March or April 2012. Let’s not forget that Intel’s CEO Paul Otellini said that Ivy Bridge 22nm processors are already in production, but from all that we know, the official launch and availability is early next year. The latest documents we’ve seen point at a launch in March or April.
With AMD set to launch Radeon HD 7970 and 7950 cards codenamed Tahiti XP and Tahiti Pro in January 2012, we don’t think Nvidia will come much later. Still, serious quantities of any 28nm graphics can only be expected later in 2012 but we would not completely eliminate to possibility of a PR launch of limitedly available next generation 28nm graphics cards from both camps.

Jasen Huang postanowił podzielić sie z nami informacja o tym, że chipy Kepler wykonane w 28nm technologii zaczną być produkowane już w niedalekiej przyszlości.
Nie powiedział jednak kiedy nowe zabawki zobaczymy w laptopach czy PC, ale potwierdza że będą dużo bardziej wydajne niżeli chipy Fermi, na pewno można tu stwierdzić że Nvidia robi wszystko aby poraz kolejny pobić AMD. Mimo wszystko nie ma szans abyśmy ujrzeli nowe chipy w tym roku. Nvidia podtrzymuje nadal że premiera Keplera odbędzie się mniej więcej w tym samym czasie co premiera nowych procesorów intela ( Ivy Bridge ) czyli około Marca - Kwietnia 2012. Paul Otellini twierdzi że nowe chipy Intela są już w produkcji, ale aby je zobaczyć musimy poczekać do dnia premiery.
Z kolei AMD planuje wypuścić na rynek karty serii 7970 i 7950 już w Styczniu 2012. Wydaje się mało prawdopodobne aby Nvidia zwlekała z przedstawieniem swoich produktów aż do premiery Ivy. Na chipy wykonane w technologi 28nm przyjdzie nam czekać do 2012.

High-end GK104 GPU in 2H of 2012
Following the recent flood of leaks regarding the upcoming GPUs from both camps, 4Gamer.net site has now leaked what appears to be a Nvidia Kepler roadmap.
The roadmap starts with the GK107 GPU, a budget/mainstream GPU that Nvidia places between GTX 520 and the GTX 550Ti. The GK107 features 128-bit memory interface paired up with GDDR5 memory and has PCI-Express 2.0 interface support. This one is scheduled to launch sometime in Q2 2012. Shortly after the GK107 comes the mid-range/performance GK106 GPU that should replace the Geforce GTX 560 non-Ti version. This one packs a 256-bit memory interface paried up with GDDR5 memory and supports PCI-Express 3.0 interface.
The second half of 2012 will bring the GK104 GPU, a GPU that will feature 384-bit memory interface paired up with GDDR5 memory (most likely 1.5GB). This one should replace the GTX 570 and will be a part of dual-GPU solution that will be known as the GK110. The GK110 GPU will feature two GK104 GPUs. Surprisingly, the GK104 and dual-GPU GK110 will be the last GPUs in 2012, as Nvidia plans the flagship GK112 for late 2012, most probably 2013. The GK112 will feature a 512-bit memory interface.
All new GK GPUs are based on 28nm manufacturing process and, all except GK107, feature support for PCI-Express 3.0 interface. The roadmap is pretty much in line with what we heard before, including that Nvidia will be a bit late with GPUs this year. According to this roadmap, it looks even worse than we expected. We expect Nvidia to be ready with the mainstream part in time for Cebit, while it looks like the performance GPU will be ready for Computex in June 2012.
Unfortunately for Nvidia, AMD's Southern Islands GPUs are going to start to roll out in early 2012. According to what we know so far, high-end Tahiti GPU comes first, while Barts replacement, Pitcairn, should be ready by the end of February and most probably launched sometimes during Cebit in March.

High-Endowe GK104 dopiero w drugiej połowie 2012
Podążając na bieżąco za wyciekającymi informacjami o nadchodzących GPU obu firm ( AMD i Nvidia ), redaktorzy 4Gamer dotarli do wiadomości na temat nowego terminarza przedstawiającego nadchodzące układy Kepler.
Terminarz rozpoczyna się od układów GK107 ( nisko-budżetówki ) które można umieścić między GTX520 a GTX550 Ti. Układy GK107 będą opierać się na interfejsie 128 bitowym połączonym wraz z pamięcią GDDR5. Karty te nadal będą wykorzystywać złącze PCI-E 2.0. Na rynek mają wejść już w 2 kwartale 2012. Zaraz po tym nadejdzie czas na układy ze średniego segmentu czyli GK106 które zastąpią GTX560. Wykorzystywać one będą 256 bitowy interfejs w połączeniu z pamięcią GDDR5 i w przeciwieństwie do GK107 będą wspierać już nowy standard PCI-E 3.0.
Druga połowa 2012 przyniesie nam chipy GK104. Czyli 384 bitowy interfejs ( szyna - jeśli ktoś nie łapie ), pamięci GDDR5 i prawdopodobnie nie mniej jak 1.5GB i wzwyż na pokładzie. Karty opierające się na tym chipie mają zastąpić GTX570. Prawdopodobnie będą też stanowić podstawę dla kart dwuprocesorowych które będziemy rozpoznawać jako GK110. Niestety GK110 ujrzymy na samym końcu i będzie to około 3 kwartału 2012, a może nawet później. Flagowe modele oparte na GK112 opierać się będą na 512 bitowej szynie prawdopodobnie wraz z pamięcią GDDR5. Niestety na te modele może przyjść nam czekać aż do 2013 roku.
Czyli jednym słowem - opóźnienia, opóźnienia i jeszcze raz opóźnienia.

Multiple sources have confirmed that Kepler, Nvidia’s GT 600 generation, is coming in Q1 2012, but so far we don’t have any better timeframe than that.
We would not be surprised to see Kepler in some form during CES, next week in Las Vegas, at least as a behind-closed-doors presentation for select members of the press and investors.
Sources close to Nvidia and AIB partners are telling us that Kepler is faster than Radeon HD 7970, but of course you would expect them to claim that their upcoming product is better.
Without any doubt, AMD is the first with a successful 28nm launch and it will enjoy some time at the top of the market, at least a couple of months.
We will keep our eyes peeled for any new developments, but it seems we will have to wait a bit before anything even close to official from Nvidia.

Wiele źródeł potwierdza fakt, iż generacja kart z serii 6XX ujrzy światło dzienne w pierwszym kwartale tego roku. Nie było by zaskoczeniem jeśli Kepler zostanie zaprezentowany na targach CES w Las Vegas dla wybranych osób oraz prasy.
Kilka źródeł twierdzi, że chip Kepler jest znacznie szybszy niż HD7970 jednakże nie było by zdziwieniem dla nikogo jeśli AMD zadeklaruje iż to ich produkt jest szybszy.
Mimo wszystko to AMD jako pierwsze pozyskało sprawne chipy produkowane w technologii 28nm.
Niestety nadal nie mamy nic oficjalnego od Nvidia, a szkoda.
