Recent leaks revealed that new game cards NVIDIA may get an unusual design. And recent data suggests high power consumption, which may even require an evaporation chamber.
And here is the resource Wctctech with reference to Youtube-channel Coreteks He reported new information about cards of the thirtieth series. Judging by the design of the cooling system, new cards can get two chips instead of one. And these are not two GPUs, as you might think.
The source believes that one is a graphics processor, and the second is a specialized coprocessor, which will deal exclusively with hardware acceleration of ray tracing. It is assumed that it will be located on the back of the board.
Note that NVIDIA has a corresponding patent registered in 2018. This approach will simplify the design of the GPU, since it will not need to host RT-cores.
In addition, this will make it possible to create separate boards specifically with RT cores by analogy with dedicated cards for PhysX, which existed in their time.
