Will the GeForce RTX 5090 be twice as fast as the RTX 4090? Rumors speak of a giant leap in performance in the new generation
While the line of Nvidia GeForce RTX 40 video cards is just beginning its march on the market, rumors about the next generation have already appeared on the Web.
The RedGamingTech resource claims that at least the older cards of the RTX 50 line can be the first solutions based on multi-chip or chiplet GPUs. Among other things, this will allegedly lead to the biggest jump in performance during the transition to the next generation in the history of Nvidia. It is not yet clear how much the performance of the conditional RTX 5090 will increase relative to the RTX 4090. But it can be noted that the RTX 4090 is faster than the RTX 3090 by about 65%, while the RTX 3090 was ahead of the RTX 2080 Ti by 50% at launch.
The source also says that the new GPU will have a new structure of the main SM computing blocks, a high-speed bus for interconnecting chiplets and a noise reduction accelerator as part of the ray tracing system pipeline.
Separately, it is worth noting that the source calls the new generation Blackwell, while the latest data indicate that this is likely to be an architecture for specialized graphics accelerators that will replace the Hopper line. At the same time, the game line, according to the current approach of Nvidia, should receive an architecture with a different name. But perhaps the source simply lumps everything together under the umbrella name Blackwell.
Be that as it may, all this is just rumors for now, since the release of the RTX 50 is still very far away.

128-core AMD Bergamo processors will be released this half of the year, and the monstrous Instinct MI300 will appear in the second half of the year

AMD’s 96-core Epyc Genoa processors have already been released, and now the company is going to release 128-core Bergamo CPUs. Previously, AMD itself talked about them, and now the company has told when to expect them.
Bergamo will be released in the current half of the year, that is, in the next few months. AMD does not yet provide more accurate data. Recall that these CPUs will have the same SP5 performance as Genoa, but the configuration will include only Zen 4C cores instead of full-fledged Zen 4. AMD has not previously said much about Zen 4C, but it is known for sure that these are not small cores, like in Intel, and the core of the same architecture, but with a number of changes.
AMD is also going to release Siena Epyc processors, which will be optimized for use in telecommunications equipment. But there are no details about them yet, except that it is known that they will be released later than Bergamo. Monstrous hybrid specialized processors Instinct MI300 will be released in the second half of the year.
Recall that AMD admitted that it had limited the supply of its products to the market over the past six months, due to which the prices for a number of products were inflated.

Nvidia, when will the budget GeForce RTX 40s appear for the desktop segment? Photos of junior GPUs AD107/AD106 for mobile RTX 4050/4060/4070 hit the Network

Photos of Nvidia GPUs of the Ada Lovelace generation, designed for low-cost video cards, have leaked to the Web.
In the picture you can see the AD107 and AD106 GPUs. So far, there are no processor data carriers in the desktop segment, but they have already been announced in the mobile segment: these are the RTX 4050/4060 and RTX 4070.
The new GPUs are very compact. The smaller one has an area of about 150-160 mm2, and the larger one has an area of 180-190 mm2. In comparison, the AD104, which the desktop RTX 4070 Ti is based on and the mobile RTX 4090 is supposed to be based on, measures almost 300mm2.
The AD107 has 3072 CUDA cores while the AD106 offers 4608 CUDA cores. In both cases, video cards will have a 128-bit memory bus.
Laptops based on graphics cards with these GPUs should hit the market soon.

AMD classic: Ryzen 7 7700X drops even further and now costs less than $300

Ryzen 7000 processors continue to get cheaper. Now several major foreign chains are offering the eight-core Ryzen 7 7700X for $299.
Recall that AMD initially priced this CPU at $400, then the company lowered prices for all new items, and this model began to cost $350. Now we have another decline, although it may be temporary.
Discounts also apply to the Ryzen 9 7950X, Ryzen 9 7900X and Ryzen 5 7600X, but in their case, the prices simply fell back to those that AMD set back in November, while the Ryzen 7 7700X fell even more.
Whether this offer will be available globally and how long it will be active is unclear. But let’s recall that yesterday AMD itself admitted that for the past six months it has deliberately limited the supply of its products to the market, which is why prices were inflated.
In addition, we recall that the unique Ryzen 7000X3D will soon enter the market.
