NVIDIA put out invitations to an August 20 event in Cologne, Germany. Dubbed "GeForce Gaming Celebration." There are ominous signs that the company could unveil its next-generation GeForce GTX 1180 graphics card. This date could make perfect sense. An announcement on 20 August and availability on 30 August. 
 
Here is the actual gaming announcement itself:

It seems likely they would announce at least something at the event and being a gaming celebration it wouldn’t be a developer level graphics card. Still though I want to see what is announced benchmarks and the price before I get really excited. It could be that we see only a top tier part at this event.

+1. I hope the price doesn't require me to sell a kidney.

I agree on that sentiment.  We can only hope.  (Crosses fingers)

ahem!!!!....really????? 
 
should we follow this leak
 
NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 2080 and 2070 Based On Ampere GA104 GPU Receive EEC Certification
 
 
It looks like the first leak of the naming scheme for NVIDIA’s upcoming next-generation graphics card has finally leaked out: NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 2080 and 2070 featuring the Ampere GA104 GPU have just received ECC certification (via KOMACHI). All the rumors and hints dropped by NVIDIA so far had been pointing to Turing being chosen as the branding name but if this certification is accurate then the company will actually be going forward with Ampere.

Manli Technologies registers Ampere GPU based NVIDIA GeForce GTX 2070 and GTX 2080 with the EEC

Manli Technologies, a vendor for NVIDIA GeForce GPUs has just registered an ECC certificate with the name GeForce GTX 2070 and GeForce GTX 2080 included in the mix. The GPU chips also contain GA104 and GA104-400 – both of which are Ampere based.

You might as well add 25% tariff Trump added to all electronic parts from China - Taiwan is in China
$200 price increase from $800 will be 1k

Good. Start making the parts here in the USA.

WHAT? Taiwan is NOT China!

This is true.

Why announce in Germany ?
 
Where is the biggest market for Nvidia ?

The info i have dug up - Turing is GV102 GV104 and is dropping this month shortly....this is on 12nm
it was suppose to have been avail in spring but GDDR6 was not avail yet and pascal was overstock due to mining
 
GA102 and GA104 is ampere and drops in spring/summer next year ...its on 7nm
 
expect ampere to knock your socks off because this is to offset(go head to Head and destroy) NAVI
 
 
next yearly main GTC is March and thats like 6-7 months so yeah you would be prepositioning and stocking parts for HPC and then consumer shortly after
otherwise the Next GTC is the Japan GTC and is this Sept 13-14
 
 

RUMOR: NVIDIA Allegedly Branding Next-Gen GeForce As RTX 20 Series
 
Titan RTX 50% Faster Than 1080 Ti, RTX 2080 8 GB GDDR6 50% Faster Than 1080, RTX 2070 7 GB GDDR6 40% Faster Than 1070
 

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20 Series Rumors – New Lineup With Turing To Feature RTX 2080, RTX 2070, GTX 2060 Graphics Cards With GDDR6 Memory, Titan RTX With HBM2

So the post is nothing more than a rumor but given the latest NVIDIA trademarks, the new naming convention might just make sense to be introduced with the upcoming GeForce lineup. Recently, a couple of new names were trademarked by NVIDIA which include Quadro RTX, GeForce RTX and a range of VR names which references back to their Virtual Link technology that is expected to intro on the upcoming lineup.
 
Regardless, the graphics card will feature the TU104 GPU
 

NVIDIA Will Also Have GeForce GTX Graphics Cards Under The $300 US Price Tag, Rumor Alleges

There also seem to be two GeForce GTX parts in the lineup which include the GTX 2060 and GTX 2050. These cards don’t use the RTX tag and could be due to performance levels not being that sufficient to handle to handle Ray tracing features like the top-tier cards

He's just making sure you don't miss the more important words.      ;)

almost qualifies as braille on my screen

This showed up on my feed today.  
 


Maybe its just me or just coincidental that it's the day before the release of Battle of Azeroth (8/14).  Maybe they have a deal with Blizzard with the new GPU(s) presumably speaking?  Don't companies usually do that on big AAA titles?

I'm already seeing several GTX 1080 Ti cards on eBay for under $500 shipped. Very tempted to pick one up, but I'm going to wait and see the performance and features of the next series cards. If the 1170/2070 is the same performance of a GTX 1080 Ti and the price is right I may go that way.

  whats the point of upgrading?  Any ways....to each his/her own. One thing for sure, I will be getting the GTX 1180. I have the TV that matches the specs of this new GPU, plus DDR6? It will be a nice addition to my Rig. The question i have is: will the GTX 1180 bottleneck my exciting RIG specs?

The 1170/2070 may have Ray Tracing, so that would be nice to have with the same performance of a 1080 Ti. Plus I crypto mine, so I would let the 1080 Ti earn money full time.
