Xe-HPG is the Performance Gaming Graphics Architecture to Look Out for from Intel

Intel appears to have every intention of addressing the performance gaming segment with its Xe graphics architecture. According to information leaked to the web by VideoCardz, Xe-HPG (high performance gaming?) represents a product vertical dedicated to the gaming segment. Among the other verticals are Xe-HPC (high performance compute). The Xe-HPG graphics architecture is being developed for a 2021 market launch. It will feature all the client-segment staples, including a conventional PCI-Express interface, and GDDR6 memory instead of HBM. Intel may also eye DirectX 12 Ultimate logo compliance. Intel's Xe discrete GPU and scalar processor development is already de-coupled with Intel's foundry business development, and so the company could contract external foundries to manufacture these chips.

As for specs, it is learned that each Xe-HP "tile" (a silicon die sub-unit that adds up in MCMs for higher tiers of Xe scalar processors), features 512 execution units (EUs). Compare this to the Xe-LP iGPU solution found in the upcoming "Tiger Lake" processor, which has 96. Intel has been able to design scalar processors with up to four tiles, adding up to 2,048 EUs. It remains to be seen if each tile on the scalar processors also include the raster hardware needed for the silicon to function as a GPU. The number of tiles on Xe-HPG are not known, but it reportedly features GDDR6 memory, and so the tile could be a variation of the Xe-HP. Intel SVP and technology head Raja Koduri is expected to detail the near-future of Intel architectures at a virtual event later today, and Xe-HPG is expected to come up.

Video Memory Sizes Set to Swell as NVIDIA Readies 20GB and 24GB GeForce Amperes

NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 20-series "Turing" graphics card series did not increase video memory sizes in comparison to GeForce GTX 10-series "Pascal," although the memory itself is faster on account of GDDR6. This could change with the GeForce RTX 30-series "Ampere," as the company looks to increase memory sizes across the board in a bid to shore up ray-tracing performance. WCCFTech has learned that in addition to a variety of strange new memory bus widths, such as 320-bit, NVIDIA could introduce certain higher variants of its RTX 30-series cards with video memory sizes as high as 20 GB and 24 GB.

Memory sizes of 20 GB or 24 GB aren't new for NVIDIA's professional-segment Quadro products, but it's certainly new for GeForce, with only the company's TITAN-series products breaking the 20 GB-mark at prices due north of $2,000. Much of NVIDIA's high-end appears to be resting on segmentation of the PG132 common board design, coupled with the GA102 silicon, from which the company could carve out several SKUs spaced far apart in the company's product stack. NVIDIA's next-generation GeForce "Ampere" family is expected to debut in September 2020, with product launches in the higher-end running through late-Q3 and Q4 of 2020.

NVIDIA Seemingly Producing Yet Another GTX 1650 Variant Based on TU-116

NVIDIA's GTX 1650 has already seen more action and revisions within its own generation than most GPUs ever have in the history of graphics cards, with NVIDIA having updated not only its memory (from 4 GB GDDR5 with 128 GB/s bandwidth to 4 GB GDDR6 memory for 192 GB/s bandwidth), but also by carving up different silicon chips to provide the same part to market. The original GTX 1650 made use of NVIDIA's TU117 chips with 896 CUDA cores, which was then superseded by the TU116-based GTX 1650 SUPER, which mightily increased the GTX 1650's execution units (1280) and bandwidth (256-bit bus). There was also a TU106-based GTX 1650, which was just bonkers - a chip originally used on the RTX 2060 was thus repurposed and cut-down.

Now, another TU-116 variant is also available, which NVIDIA carved down from its GTX 1650 SUPER chips. These go back to the original releases' 896 CUDA cores and 128-bit bus, whilst keeping the GDDR6 memory ticking at 12 Gbps and clocks set at 1410 MHz Base and 1590 MHz Boost. This card achieves feature parity with the TU106-based GTX 1650, but trades in the crazy 445 mm² TU106 die for the much more svelte 284 mm² TU116 one. NVIDIA seems to be doing what it can by cleaning house of any and all leftover chips in preparation for their next-gen release - consumer confusion be damned.

MSI Launches Radeon RX 5600 XT Gaming M(X) Graphics Card

MSI has found some ways to reduce pricing on their Radeon RX 5600 XT Gaming X series, and has materialized these savings on a new product. The RX 5600 XT Gaming M(X) sees itself as a lower-priced variant of the card, featuring 14 Gbps GDDR6 memory and making use of a cooler that is more alike the Armor series we know from the RX 580 models.

The new graphics card still features a dual-fan cooling solution, dual 8-pin power connectors, and I/O is assured by 3x DisplayPort and 1x HDMI. The Gaming M features slightly lower clocks than the Gaming or Gaming X series: 1130 MHz Base, 1375 MHz Game, and 1560 MHz Boost clocks is the quoted transistor ticking speed. The packaging still features the red stylized X employed on MSI's Gaming X series though, which may cause some confusion when it comes to shop around.

Sony Doubles Playstation 5 Orders Amid High Demand

According to the Bloomberg report, Sony has reportedly doubled Playstation 5 orders and plans to ship 10 million units this fiscal year. Originally, Sony wanted to ship 5-6 million units between November of this year and March 31st of 2021. However, Sony is seeing a very high demand for its next-generation console and it had to double the production orders. Being manufactured in Kisarazu, Japan, the company can assemble two Playstation 4 consoles every minute, which is pretty impressive and gives hope that Sony can satisfy the demand for the new console. When the manufacturing costs of the console are broken down into parts, memory is making for more than half of it. The super-fast PCIe 4.0 SSD and GDDR6 memory cost about $250 combined. Reports are suggesting that the entire console costs an amazing $450 to manufacture.

Sapphire Intros Radeon RX 5600 XT Pulse BE: Shorter and Smaller than the Original

Sapphire introduced a price-optimized variant of its Radeon RX 5600 XT Pulse, with the new RX 5600 XT Pulse BE (model: 11296-05-20G). This card is visibly smaller than the original RX 5600 XT Pulse that is largely based on the board design of the RX 5700 series Pulse cards. The newer card is 23.05 cm long and 12.25 cm tall, compared to the original Pulse, that's 25.4 cm long and 13.5 cm tall. The new card is also slightly thinner, at exactly 4 cm (slightly less than 2 slots thick), while the original Pulse is 4.65 cm thick (slightly more than 2 slots thick).

There are a handful areas of cost-cutting by Sapphire. To begin with, while the diameter of the two fans of the Dual-X cooling solution is unchanged at 100 mm, the underlying heatsink is visibly slimmer, and of a different design than that used in the original Pulse card. Secondly, the PCB is shorter in length than the cooler itself, and is of a completely different design than the original Pulse. Thirdly, the card lacks dual-BIOS. Lastly, the fans of the card lack the Quick-Connect feature that lets you pop them out to clean the heatsink underneath. Luckily, the new Pulse BE card sticks to AMD's revised OC specs for the RX 5600 XT out of the box, so you don't have to bother with BIOS updates. It ticks at 1560 MHz game clocks, up to 1620 MHz boost clocks, and 14 Gbps (GDDR6-effective) memory. The company didn't reveal pricing, although we expect this card to be priced very close to the USD $279 baseline for the RX 5600 XT.

GALAX Designs a GeForce GTX 1650 "Ultra" with TU106 Silicon

NVIDIA board partners carving out GeForce RTX 20-series and GTX 16-series SKUs from ASICs they weren't originally based on, is becoming more common, but GALAX has taken things a step further. The company just launched a GeForce GTX 1650 (GDDR6) graphics card based on the "TU106" silicon (ASIC code: TU106-125-A1). The company carved a GTX 1650 out of this chip by disabling all of its RT cores, all its tensor cores, and a whopping 61% of its CUDA cores, along with proportionate reductions in TMU- and ROP counts. The memory bus width has been halved from 256-bit down to 128-bit.

The card, however, is only listed by the Chinese regional arm of GALAX. The card's marketing name is "GALAX GeForce GTX 1650 Ultra," with "Ultra" being a GALAX brand extension, and not an NVIDIA SKU (i.e. the GPU isn't called "GTX 1650 Ultra"). The GPU clock speeds for this card is identical to those of the original GTX 1650 that's based on TU117 - 1410 MHz base, 1590 MHz GPU Boost, and 12 Gbps (GDDR6-effective) memory.

Manli Releases GeForce GTX 1650 Low Profile

The Manli GeForce GTX 1650 DDR6 Low Profile is powered by NVIDIA's new GDDR6 memory, hence the "DDR6" moniker. The key upgrades include 12 Gbps memory speed and 192 GB/sec memory bandwidth, both improvements over the former DDR5. Clock speed is at 1410 MHz and can be boosted to 1590 MHz. This results in a performance boost of 6.31% over the DDR5. The performance benchmarks of the DDR6 slots it comfortably between the previous DDR5 and the
GeForce GTX 1650 Super. The sleeker design makes it more suitable for certain applications.

AMD Radeon RX 5300 (Desktop) Surfaces on Geekbench

AMD is coming around to launching its entry-level Radeon RX 5300 on the desktop platform, although it remains to be seen if the SKU will be released in the AIB (all-in-board) retail channel, or remains an OEM-exclusive. It surfaced an "AMD 7340:CF" graphics device on the Geekbench database, and was identified as the RX 5300 (non-mobile) by Komachi Ensaka. The OpenCL benchmark component of Geekbench identifies the card as having 24 compute units (1536 stream processors). The mobile RX 5300M has 3 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 96-bit wide memory bus, and the desktop RX 5300 appears to have the same memory configuration. The SKU hence appears to be based on the 7 nm "Navi 14" silicon, the same one that powers the RX 5500 series.

AMD Coming Around to Launching the Radeon RX 5600M and RX 5700M?

AMD is finally coming around to launching the Radeon RX 5600M and RX 5700M based on its 7 nm "Navi 10" silicon. The company has, until now, only shipped mobile GPUs using the smaller "Navi 14" chip. A scoop by Komachi Ensaka points to an upcoming notebook combining a Ryzen 4000-H processor an "Navi-10M" GPU. With the right combination of clock speeds and memory configuration, the RX 5600M could offer performance rivaling (or beating) the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (mobile), and possibly on par with the RTX 2060 (mobile). The RX 5700M could compete with the upcoming RTX 2060 Super (mobile) and RTX 2070 (mobile). The RX 5600M could be a particularly important solution, as its desktop compatriot is designed for higher refresh-rate 1080p gaming. Much of the gaming notebook scene still revolves around 1080p, with innovations in the areas of refresh rates.

AMD gave both the RX 5600M and RX 5700M identical GPU core configurations to their desktop variants. The RX 5600M has 2,304 stream processors, 144 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and a 192-bit GDDR6 memory interface holding 6 GB of memory; while the RX 5700M tops it with 256-bit wide memory bus and 8 GB of memory. Both the RX 5700M and RX 5600M are configured with 12 Gbps memory frequency. The RX 5600M ticks at 1190 MHz (game), and 1265 MHz (boost), while the RX 5700M does 1620 MHz (game) and 1720 MHz (boost). Coming back to Komachi's leak about the Renoir + Navi 10M notebook, we predict a working implementation of AMD SmartShift technology. The company even made marketing graphics of this.

GALAX Extends Pink Edition Treatment to Even RTX 2080 Super

In a quick follow-up to our story from yesterday about the GALAX GeForce RTX 2070 Super EX Pink Edition graphics card, we are learning that the company is ready with a GeForce RTX 2080 Super graphics card based on the same board design. Bearing the model number "28ISL6MD71PE," the card is a costmetic variant of the company's RTX 2080 Super EX graphics card, featuring a bubblegum pink paintjob on the cooler shroud and back-plate. The PCB, although of the same design as the EX (1-click OC), is now fully white, like the HOF series. The RGB LED fans glow hot-pink out of the box. The Pink Edition card ships with factory-overclocked speeds of 1845 MHz GPU Boost (vs. 1815 MHz reference), and its software-based 1-click OC feature enables 1860 MHz boost frequencies. The memory is untouched, at 15.5 Gbps (GDDR6-effective).

The GeForce RTX 2080 Super maxes out the 12 nm "TU104" silicon, featuring 3,072 "Turing" CUDA cores, 192 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and a 256-bit wide GDDR6 memory interface holding 8 GB of memory. Much like its RTX 2070 Super sibling, this card pulls power from a combination of 8-pin and 6-pin PCIe power connectors; while its display outputs include three DisplayPorts and one HDMI. Expect an identical product to be launched under the KFA2 brand in certain markets. The company didn't reveal pricing.

ASUS Intros GeForce GTX 1650 GDDR6 Phoenix Graphics Card with Axial-Tech Fan

ASUS today introduced its GeForce GTX 1650 (GDDR6) Phoenix graphics card (model: PH-GTX1650-O4GD6). This 2-slot thick card is 17.4 cm in length and 12.6 cm in height, designed to fit in most SFF cases. Its cooling solution consists of an aluminium monoblock heatsink that's ventilated by a single 80 mm Axial-Tech fan. Found in some of ASUS's higher end cards, this fan features double-ball bearings, and an impeller with webbed edges, such that all its airflow is guided axially onto the heatsink below (and none laterally).

The GTX 1650 (GDDR6) Phoenix comes with a mild factory-overclock of 1605 MHz (vs. 1590 MHz reference for the GTX 1650 GDDR6). The card's 4 GB memory is untouched at 12 Gbps (GDDR6-effective). The card draws all its power from the PCI-Express slot. Display outputs include one each of dual-link DVI-D, HDMI 2.0b, and DisplayPort 1.4a. Based on the 12 nm "TU117" silicon, the GTX 1650 GDDR6 features 896 "Turing" CUDA cores, 56 TMUs, 32 ROPs, and a 128-bit wide GDDR6 memory interface, holding 4 GB of memory. The company didn't reveal pricing, although we expect it to be around $160.

SK hynix Inc. Reports First Quarter 2020 Results

SK hynix Inc. today announced financial results for its first quarter 2020 ended on March 31, 2020. The consolidated revenue of first quarter 2020 was 7.20 trillion won while the operating profit amounted to 800 billion won, and the net income 649 billion won. Operating margin for the quarter was 11% and net margin was 9%.

Despite abrupt changes of external business conditions due to COVID-19, our first quarter revenue and operating income increased by 4% and 239% quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) respectively, driven by increased sales of server products, yield rates improvement, and cost reduction. For DRAM, strong demand of server clients offset the weak mobile demand which declined due to both seasonal slowdown and the COVID-19 impact. As a result, the Company's DRAM bit shipments declined only by 4% QoQ and DRAM average selling price increased by 3% QoQ.

Colorful Unveils Trio of GeForce GTX 1650 GDDR6 Graphics Cards

Colorful rolled out a trio of new GeForce GTX 1650 GDDR6 graphics cards. These include products from the company's BattleAx and iGame product lines. All three appear to be based on a common board design with a 3+1 phase VRM, and a monoblock aluminium heatsink that's ventilated by a dual fan setup. The base model, without any special branding, sticks to NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of 1590 MHz GPU Boost and 12 Gbps memory. Interestingly, it features a 6-pin PCIe power input (isn't normally needed if the GTX 1650 GDDR6 is running at reference speeds).

Next up, is the Colorful GTX 1650 GDDR6 BattleAx, with a red+black color scheme, an otherwise identical design to the base model, but a healthy factory-overclock of 1710 MHz GPU Boost (vs. 1590 MHz reference). Leading the pack is the iGame GTX 1650 D6 Ultra OC. This product, too, features a mostly identical design to the other two, but with a more premium-looking cooler shroud, and a metal back-plate being included. The card features dual-BIOS, with a "Turbo" BIOS that has increased power limits to facilitate a 1725 MHz GPU Boost factory OC. All three cards run the memory at 12 Gbps (GDDR6-effective), take in one 6-pin PCIe power input, and offer a display output layout with one each of dual-link DVI-D, HDMI 2.0b, and DisplayPort 1.4a. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Leaked Benchmark shows Possible NVIDIA MX450 with GDDR6 Memory

A new listing was spotted on the 3DMark results browser for what could be the NVIDIA MX450 laptop GPU. The MX450 is expected to be based on the TU117, the same as the GTX 1650 speculated @_rogame. The leaked benchmark shows the MX450 having a clock speed of 540 MHz and 2 GB of GDDR6 memory. The memory is listed as having a speed of 2505 MHz meaning a potential memory speed of 10Gbit/s. It is interesting to see the shift to GDDR6 in NVIDIA's suite of products likely due to a shortage in GDDR5 or simply that GDDR6 is now cheaper.

The TU117 GPU found in the GTX 1650 GDDR6 has proven itself to be a solid 1080p gaming option. The chip is manufactured on TSMC's 12 nm process and features 1024 shading units, 64 texture mapping units and 32 ROPs. The MX450 should provide a significant boost over integrated graphics at a TDP of 25 W, and will sit under the GTX 1650 Mobile due to its reduced RAM and power/thermal constraints.

ASUS Rolls Out ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1650 GDDR6 Series

ASUS finally joined the GeForce GTX 1650 GDDR6 party with a pair of ROG Strix series premium graphics cards. The cards feature a DirectCU II aluminium fin-stack heatsink with two copper heat pipes making direct contact with the GPU at the base; and a pair of AxialTech fans ventilating it. These fans are designed to guide most of their airflow axially as the edges of the impellers are webbed to prevent lateral airflow. You get a few segment-first features such as dual-BIOS and a FanConnect II 4-pin PWM case fan header. A metal back-plate is included.

The ASUS ROG Strix GTX 1650 GDDR6 series comes in two variants, the overclocked O4GD6 with 1815 MHz GPU Boost, and the mildly overclocked A4GD6 with 1620 MHz GPU Boost, compared to NVIDIA reference speeds of 1590 MHz for the GTX 1650 GDDR6. Both cards stick to 12 Gbps for the GDDR6 memory clock speeds. While most GTX 1650 GDDR6 cards are designed for no additional power connectors, the ASUS ROG Strix series needs a 6-pin PCIe input. Display outputs include two each of HDMI 2.0b and DisplayPort 1.4a The company didn't reveal pricing.

NVIDIA Quietly Refreshes Mobile GeForce RTX Graphics Cards

NVIDIA has recently introduced its GeForce RTX 20-series SUPER mobile graphics cards, with the heap of new features that are present on the new GPU models. According to a report from ComputerBase, NVIDIA has refreshed few of the RTX 20-series mobile GPUs in addition to the previously announced SUPER models. Now there are a few models/variants of these RTX 20-series GPUs. Firstly, there is a standard RTX mobile GPU variant called the "Max-P" version - this represents the RTX 20-series GPUs that were launched initially in January of 2019 and it includes three SKUs like RTX 2060, 2070 and 2080. Secondly, there is a "Max-Q" revision of these graphics cards, meant to bring maximum efficiency. These SKUs are power-limited, so they are a bit slower compared to the regular "Max-P" version, and they have a Total Graphics Power (TGP) between 65 W and 90 W depending on the model.

Next up we have GeForce RTX SUPER 20-series of GPUs that were launched on April 2nd just a few days ago. These GPUs are special because they bring a heap of new features like more CUDA cores, low-power (1.25 V compared to the old 1.35 V) GDDR6 memory, DynamicBoost, and Optimus support. So what are these new, refresh GPUs? On ComputerBase Forums, XMG (laptop maker) representative has revealed that NVIDIA refreshed some of the older RTX 20-series mobile GPU that were already in use.

EVGA Introduces the GeForce RTX 2080 & 2070 SUPER KO Graphics Cards

EVGA today announced availability of their GeForce RTX 2080 & 2070 SUPER KO graphics cards. Much like their original RTX 2060 KO graphics card, which came in an attractive price point that undercut NVIDIA's own $299 MSRP for the graphics card, the new graphics cards also carry a new, lower price point than the company's (previous) cheapest offerings, the Black series. The EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER KO will be retailing for $499.99 (2560 CUDA cores, 1770 MHz Boost Clock, 8 GB GDDR6 memory @ 14 GHz over a 256-bit bus), while the EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER KO (3072 CUDA cores, 1815 MHz Boost Clock, 8 GB GDDR6 memory @ 15.5 GHz over a 256-bit bus) can be had for $699.99. This is a lower pricing than most competitor's offerings in this market for a custom-designed RTX 2070 SUPER or RTX 2080 SUPER.

To achieve this pricepoint, some cuts have had to be made. The cards ship without a backplate, and the cooling solution seems to be slightly less dense than the company's other, more expensive designs based on NVIDIA's chips. The PCB in these graphics cards is a custom design - and going to the trouble of redesigning what was an originally beefy engineering feat means that some cuts were likely done in this area as well. The new SUPER KO graphics cards also drop the Virtual Link port, featuring only 3x DisplayPort and 1x HDMI as display outputs. EVGA's Precision X1 overclocking utility is bundled with the graphics cards.

GALAX Unveils GeForce GTX 1650 GDDR6 Prodigy, EX, and LP Graphics Cards

GALAX unveiled its GeForce GTX 1650 GDDR6 graphics card lineup that includes four SKUs. The same four will be sold under the KFA2 brand in select markets. The lineup includes the standard GALAX GTX 1650 GDDR6 and its factory-overclocked EX-OC variant; a low-profile LP model, and the GTX 1650 Prodigy, targeted at gaming i-cafes. The standard GALAX GTX 1650 GDDR6 and its EX-OC variant feature an aluminium monoblock heatsink that's ventilated by a pair of 80 mm fans. The standard variant is clocked at NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of 1590 MHz GPU Boost. The EX-OC variant is clocked a notch higher at 1605 MHz GPU Boost. Both cards come with software-based "1-click OC" modes.

Next up is the GALAX GTX 1650 GDDR6 Prodigy, a cost-effective graphics card designed for gaming i-cafes. This card features a simple aluminium fan-heatsink with radially-projecting fins (similar to Intel stock CPU coolers); ventilated by a single 80 mm fan. The card ticks at NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of 1590 MHz GPU Boost. Lastly, there's the GTX 1650 GDDR6 LP, which as the name might suggest, is a half-height (low-profile) graphics card targeted at SFF or HTPC builds. The card features a chunky 2-slot thick monoblock aluminium heatsink that's ventilated by a pair of 40 mm fans. All four cards run their GDDR6 memory at 12 Gbps, and feature a common set of display connectors: one each of dual-link DVI-D, HDMI 2.0b, and DisplayPort 1.4.

ZOTAC Unveils a Pair of GeForce GTX 1650 GDDR6 Graphics Cards

ZOTAC unveiled a nimble lineup of two new graphics cards based on NVIDIA's latest GeForce GTX 1650 GDDR6 graphics chip. They two are even factory-overclocked despite lacking an additional power connector and relying on the PCIe slot for power. The standard ZOTAC GTX 1650 GDDR6 (model: ZT-T16520F-10L) features the company's cheapest single-fan cooling solution, consisting of a heatsink with radially-projecting fins not unlike Intel's stock CPU cooler; ventilated by a single 90 mm fan. The card offers a tiny factory overclock: up to 1620 MHz GPU Boost, compared to 1590 MHz NVIDIA reference.

The other card, the ZOTAC GTX 1650 GDDR6 AMP (model: ZT-T16520D-10L), features a slightly larger heatsink that's still molded from a single block of aluminium; ventilated by two 70 mm fans. This card ticks at 1650 MHz GPU Boost (vs. 1590 MHz reference). Both cards keep their 4 GB of GDDR6 memory running at reference speeds of 12 Gbps. Display outputs on both are identical: one each of dual-link DVI-D, HDMI 2.0b, and DisplayPort 1.4. The company didn't reveal pricing, although we expect it to be priced around $150-160 so as to not step on the GTX 1650 Super's toes.

GIGABYTE Debuts its EAGLE Graphics Card Brand with GTX 1650 GDDR6

GIGABYTE today debuted its new EAGLE brand of graphics cards with the GeForce GTX 1650 (GDDR6). The company was last reported working on an EAGLE-branded Radeon RX 5600 XT graphics card that hasn't yet launched. The product design of the EAGLE appears to be a step-up from the company's mainline WindForce series custom-design graphics cards, but we're not sure if it's positioned above the coveted AORUS Gaming brand that extends all the way from the GTX 1650 to the most expensive RTX 2080 Ti SKUs. The product design involves an aluminium fin-stack heatsink, a dual-fan setup, and a fancy looking shroud with acrylic accents and diamond-cut edges. In all likelihood, GIGABYTE's EAGLE brand will be positioned against other manufacturer's "tier-2" brands, such as ASUS DUAL EVO, MSI Ventus/MECH, etc.
