The crux of the article, Nvidia’s CEO has just stated that new GeForce cards are a long time away yet (which could very well mean there’s no new architecture this year).
This could especially have interesting implications for the idea of using the GPU as a rendering device. Reports show that 12 core Ryzen chips arrive next year and already, the more recent CPU’s are faster than the GPU at various scenes in various render engines. This also means there likely is not going to be a lot of movement in really pushing the graphics for VR applications (they can already push the 1080 Ti to its limit and nothing a lot more powerful yet in the immediate future). Thirdly, it means AMD has a chance to catch up or even beat Nvidia due to the rumored speed potential for their future 7nm GPU models (at least 50 percent above a Vega 64).
Interesting times for GPU owners, at least those who just recently got a Pascal card will not see their purchase become obsolete within a few months.
