Get “Amped” for Nvidia’s GTC Keynote! Coming Next Month!

Nvidia has confirmed that it’s GTC 2020 Keynote will now be taking place on May 14th, where CEO Jensen Huang will showcase the company’s “latest platform breakthroughs in AI, Deep Learning, Autonomous Vehicles, Robotics and Professional Graphics”. 

Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, Nvidia’s GTC 2020 keynote was postponed, but now Nvidia is ready to discuss the company’s future plans and possibly reveal some of their next-generation products. 

While we do not expect Nvidia to discuss their future Geforce gaming products, we do expect Nvidia to discuss their plans for the professional graphics market. Nvidia’s Volta V100 was announced in May 2017 and has been on the market for over two years. Our guess is that Nvidia plans to reveal and Ampere-based replacement for its Volta series of graphics cards, hence Nvidia’s “Amped” teaser. 

With Ampere, we expect Nvidia to improve its AI performance significantly through the power of updated Tensor cores and other architectural enhancements. Nvidia hasn’t spoken about its Ampere architecture, so we can only guess at the architectural improvements that Nvidia plans to offer its customer. 

GTC 2020 will be streamed on YouTube on May 14th at 6 AM Pacific Time, which translates to 2 PM in the UK.
