Jen-Hsun Huang mocks the Radeon VII, noting that Turing at 12nm consumes less than Vega at 7nm

The AMD Radeon VII graphics card has been ridiculed by the CEO of NVIDIA, for its consumption, noting that despite the lithography, its graphics consume less.

The launch of the Turing architecture is giving a lot to talk about since its launch. This architecture has been developed with RayTracing and DLSS in mind, two technologies that are rarely implemented today. Despite this, the architecture is very good and offers a noticeable leap in performance compared to Pascal, with an adjusted consumption. Jen-Hsun Huang has highlighted the efficiency aspect, highlighting that 7nm GPUs consume more than his 12nm.

Jen-Hsun Huang makes fun of AMD GPUs

Turing is based on 12nm lithography, a major leap from the 16nm of Pascal architecture. NVIDIA graphics have always had lower temperatures and consumption than AMD graphics. Above all, the gap was overwhelmed with the launch of the Radeon VII, which is based on Vega 20. A Vega 20 GPU that despite being manufactured in 7nm, consumes more than double that of a 12nm Turing. A normal RTX 2080 consumes around 250-270W, while the Radeon VII consumes more than 400W. Something that has served the CEO of NVIDIA to get chest out and laugh at the competition.

“What makes us special is that we can create the most efficient GPU in the world at any time, and we must use the most affordable technology. Look at Turing. The energy efficiency is very good even compared to another company's 7nm. "

Right now, like it more or less, it is data that is on the table. It is true that an RTX graphic has an excessive price, something harshly criticized by everyone, including us. But it is that AMD has already put aside the Radeon VII, which only came out to attract attention. The company is already thinking about the Navi architecture, which will also be in 7nm and which promises more power and less consumption, at least, according to the latest leaks.
