Jen-Hsun Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, believes that the new AMD Vega will not be competition for his company

NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang talks about the upcoming arrival of AMD Vega to the market and comments that at the moment he does not see competition in the gaming graphics card market and that he does not see it in the future either.

A few hours ago NVIDIA announced a great financial quarter and there are already several successful ones for the company, in this case the company has registered no less than 1.930 million dollars, which is an increase of 48% over the previous figure. The CEO of NVIDIA Jen-Hsun Huang, has spoken about the financial data, but incidentally that he was talking about money and such, he has commented that he has no expected competition during this year in the market of graphics cards for gaming, with the arrival of the AMD Vega.

During the presentation of the accounts, the analyst of Barclays Capital, Blayne Curtis, has asked the CEO of NVIDIA, how, according to him, he sees this year the competition in the graphics card market that is forecast for the second half of the year . The answer has been simple, that with the GTX 1080 Ti, NVIDIA Titan Xp and the update of the GTX 1080, you do not see much competition from AMD. It is clear that AMD will offer AMD Vega, a solution that should offer less performance than NVIDIA solutions, but a better price, being a good option as always in performance / price.

Blayne Curtis 'question was:' Thank you. Just asking about the movement in the gaming graphics card market, as I was wondering if you can talk about the competitive landscape by taking a look at the latest update [AMD RX 500 Series]. And then looking forward [AMD Vega], in the second half of the year, I think their competitors have a new platform. I'm curious about your ideas as to how the ratio between the previous update and the competitiveness in the second half of the year. ' Jen-Hsun Huang has not been cut off and has been concise: 'My assessment is that the competitive position is not going to change'

The question from Blayne Curtis catches my attention, is that he talks about the second half of the year, when in theory AMD would launch AMD Vega during Q2. What Blayne reveals in his speech is that the AMD Vega would not arrive until the second half of the year, which would be good for NVIDIA, since the company plans to launch Volta during the second half of the year and that it would be launched between October and November, based on current forecasts.

  1. But not that they do not raise the fumes. To Nvidia. Why you can fare worse than Intel in your architecture and design

  2. This Chinese several times had to admit his pride, first he said that the NV30 (Geforce FX 5800) was going to be the chip more powerful than the competition, and it turned out that ATI with its great R300 (Radeon 9700 Pro) that came out a few months before was best…. then also had to swallow a few bitter drinks when AMD / ATI released their RV770 (Radeon HD 4870) with GDDR5 memory and lower consumption, and better performance / price ratio against the Geforce GTX 260/280… .. and the Radeon 7000 series were very competitive and durable over time against those anemic kepler in memory vram and abandoned and with worse performance (I was a victim)…. Of course, Nvidia users are used to changing gpu every time their favorite company releases something new… ..

    1. I would ask you please to express your opinion or your point of view, if you need to insult or belittle anyone. Thank you.

    2. First, Jen Hsun Huang is not Chinese but Taiwanese, otherwise things have gone very well for nvidia in the gaming field and with Pascal I don't think anything will happen, although he has made poor decisions (such as launching a $ 1200 TItan when has 4 missing high-end GPUs to be released: GP 102 (trimmed) FULL GP102, GP100 (trimmed) and GP100 FULL (not yet released))

        1. Sorry to sustain what I said since the tesla P100 only has 3584, using a total of 56 Pascal SM but the GP100 has 60 Pascal SM for a total of a 3840 Cuda core (adding the 1920 FP64 cuda cores) (by the way the TDP of the Tesla P100 is about 250 Watts)

  3. Yes, what can we say? Nvidea takes out in early 2018 and half takes out AMD again and so we spend more money from one to the other

  4. It hurts to admit that AMD has not looked at all good or has maintained clear differences with respect to nVidia ... there is nothing concrete yet, but I think that VEGA will have nothing to do against Volta! although in APU's it will be another story.
