This generation of GPUs saw some serious changes within the AMD-Nvidia arms race, alongside the entrance of a third major player. Nvidia continued to be the top GPU manufacturer thanks to its fantastic performance across all price tiers, class-leading ray-tracing, and outstanding resolution upscaling technology through its GeForce RTX 40 series despite high prices.
Meanwhile, his rival AMD continued to supply the Bang-For-Fuck graphics cards with the RADEON RX 7000 series while transmitting its generation on video game consoles and pocket computers.
After decades of dominating the CPU market, Intel even made its grand entrance into the discrete GPU market with its Intel Arc series. Though compatibility with older games and general performance weren’t anywhere near Nvidia and AMD at first, both A750 and A770 served as a respectable starting point for Intel.
As 2024 approaches the new year, there have been many hypotheses that new cards will arrive from the new Big 3. Nvidia is rumored to launch its 50-series GPUs a few weeks after a potential reveal at CES 2025. On the other hand, Jack Huynh, senior vice president of AMD, said in a recent interview that lately the chipmaker is focusing on GPUs more and more. mid-range market spaces. Most recently, Intel announced and unveiled its new Intel Arc B580 to rave reviews (including TechRadar’s Intel Arc B580 review, which earned the coveted five stars). Better yet, the Intel Arc B570 is expected to launch in early 2025.
We’re expecting a lot of features with the new GPU series launching next year, from increased VRAM to greater enthusiast-level functionality. However, here are a few things I need to see in the next-gen maps that are coming. 2025.
Real -TinoRay Shadows, Ambient Oclusion, and Global Reflections have absolutely revolutionized the game once Nvidia has released the first advertising graphics cards with ray tracing capabilities.
Introduced in 2018 through the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080, the generation has one of the greatest visual effects in fashionable games. AMD would later introduce the generation in its Radeon RX 6000 series in 2020, and since its debut in Battlefield V, Ray Tracing has been an option in many highly sensitive PC games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Alan Wake II.
Intel’s arc cards debuted in 2022 and, despite their ray tracing features with Nvidia or AMD, at least they are present.
One of the disorders of generation is knowing what a higher intensity of resources is like, which is surely what the performance of a song is doing. Although the existing generation cards have performed better, there is still a lot to be done in this area.
Nvidia’s AI dominance began with its Deep Learning Super Sampling (or DLSS) technology that was introduced in 2018 on its RTX 20 series GPUs.
It allowed smaller-resolution images to be rendered, then upscaled into higher resolutions, vastly improving gaming framerates. It’s also become a less resource-intensive way to achieve 4K resolutions in modern gaming consoles.
AMD IS SAID TO BE SHOWCASING ES COMPETITOR UPSCALING TECHNOLOGY, FIDELITYFX SUPOLUTION (OR FSR), AND INTEL HAS ALSO DEyETED AT INTEL XESS FOR ITS GRAPHICS Cards As Well As Sum Competing Graphics Cards That Can Use DP4a Commands ( , Fashion and fashion GPU).
Though all three versions of AI upscaling look fine, they still contain artifacts, blurriness, and ghosting among others issues that can disrupt immersion. For now, the performance gain makes it worth using, but here’s to hoping that the tech continues to improve with next-gen GPUs so we don’t have to sacrifice as much visual quality for those extra frames.
Intel’s long-term “heavenly” GPUs can use what’s known as a “disaggregated GPU architecture,” according to an Intel patent filing. And, while it’s unlikely to make Intel Battlemage GPUs, this modular design may be offering flexibility and forward force efficiency, especially valuable for high-performance graphics cards.
Similar chipsets have been speculated for AMD’s RDNA Four series and NVIDIA RTX 50 series, those rumors have largely died down in recent months.
However, there are potential challenges including ensuring fast interconnects between chipsets to maintain performance. If done right, disintegrated chipsets could become just as revolutionary as multi-core CPUs became during the mid-2000s, and we might get to see some in 2025.
As GPU chips become stronger with each iteration, power consumption has also increased (at least on the enthusiast side). Nvidia’s upcoming RTX 5090 card is rumored to have a thermal design strength (TDP) close to six hundred W, an increase from the RTX 4090’s 450 W.
Corsair has shown that the 12V-2×6 connector will likely remain the popular one for next-gen GPUs, and as for AMD and Intel, they are unlikely to follow the popular high-power ones for their GPUs by continuing to use 8 pins to 8. pin connectors. Hopefully, next-generation chipsets will feature more features without the huge power cost.
