NVIDIA's next-gen GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards are expected to utilize the new Blackwell GPU architecture. Recently, there are lots of rumors popping up regarding the chip so we decided to round them up and see what Blackwell is shaping up to be.
The latest rumors come from TechTubers, RedGamingTech & Moore's Law is Dead, who published their recent videos talking about NVIDIA's next-gen architecture. Since Blackwell is still a few years away from launch, this information isn't final and rumors are meant to be taken with a grain of salt though still interesting because more renowned leakers have made similar statements in the past.
Based on previous information, we already know that Blackwell is the codename for NVIDIA's next-gen GPU architecture that is meant to succeed Hopper, and unlike Hopper, Blackwell comes with a consumer-esque GB102 GPU in addition to the GB100 GPU which was leaked a while back.
There have also been reports that Blackwell GPU architecture will be introduced in 2024 which means that GTC 2024 might be the first server-level introduction before the architecture ships out to GeForce cards.
So starting off with the details, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 series that utilizes the Blackwell GPUs is going to retain a monolithic die approach. Moore's Law is Dead states that NVIDIA isn't worried by AMD's chiplet strategy given what they were able to release during the first consumer-chipset gen in the form of Navi 31 "RDNA 3". The green is expected to keep on utilizing a monolithic die which still retains more advantages with the biggest one being having the product manufactured on time.
ADA-next seems to be another monolithic chip.
