Well, no.Yes, which is more than compensated for by vastly superior performance and efficiency
Turing burned a lot of area for very little in terms of perf and some decent-ish power gains.
Except that part when the design costs are skyrocketing, so GPUs will always be the second-class citizen for AMD.AMD being able to support sizable R&D budgets due to their fantastic execution on the CPU side
uArch work isn't about money.The money hasn't been there to develop NAVI
# of dies is.
Turing is 5 dies already.
Navi will be lucky to be 2 by EOY.
Basically nothing of Tesla remains since Kepler.Nvidia's current Turing architecture is literally the same one from their GTX 200 series
But Fermi, yes, nV is still using the same design principles since Fermi, with separated geometry processing and setup pipes.
Well no, Turing is ~client Volta, and Volta had plenty of uArch changes.Most of Nvidia's gains were achieved by increasing the die size and using GDDR6.
