"According to industry sources who spoke with Tom's Hardware Germany's Igor Wallossek on condition of anonymity, we expect a July release for the Founder's Edition cards with third-party cards to follow in August or September. Laptop versions of the cards will come later in the year.

These sources indicate that Nvidia will be delivering the GPU and memory over to partners on or around June 15th. We expect the company to deliver Founder's Edition Cards to retail sometime in July. New Quadro cards based on Turing could debut at Siggraph in August"

GDDR6 could be a game changer for ETH. Looking forward to see a review soon.

who cares, gpu mining is inefficient and non competitive,  Will not bring in $5-$15 like the good ole days,  the crypto market will transition to fgpa and asics for 2018-2019.  It will be more specialized hardware market and the serious miners know this

We all knew one day this would come. In my opinion I think mining was profitable long enough for most to save up decent amounts of ETH or BTC while at the same time paying off their rigs.

Basically it's been over 2 years of constant profitable mining since ETH exploded in Feb 2016.

I think this GPU will be marginally better than it's prior generation and hopefully there is some supply in the markets this time.

Ya exactly.  Even if the performance is Twice as good,  Twice the dollar profits which would be about $3 bucks per card a day, is still not high good enough of a payout to make it worth my time to invest 10k+ into gpu rigs.  I'm in it to run it like a business.  Not fight over the left over pigeon scraps that the asics/fpga left behind.

Crypto does not stay constant and neither should we expect mining to stay constant also.  The Tech and hardware requirements will evolve with the space and use hardware more suited for this type of task.

I hope nobody buys these for mining, as id like to get a new gaming card at a realistic price.

5$ ok but when did you get more for a gpu/day by mining one of the top coins? When eth was under 10$ profitabilty was under 2$ day and that lasted for some time.

If you can make 10$ / ti on a wtm coin then you are in a crypto boom and that never lasts long.

Do you think FPGAs will pull 100$/day while you sit and watch them? What if everyone mines with them? If only a handful of people do then fuck that, crypto is not about that.

We'll see how the memory fares in mining, GDDR6 could be either better or worse for mining more memory-heavy algos like Ethash, but I suspect we're going to temporarily go into a phase where mining shifts towards non-GPU devices in the future, but it doesn't mean GPU/CPU mining will become completely unviable.

I've also been looking for a better card than a 470 for gaming recently, not looking to drop money into Pascal cards that will soon be a generation behind- demand and prices probably won't be too high this time around and I'll see if it's worth getting any of the new Turing cards for my gaming (and possibly mining) purposes.

You actually thought crypto was about decentralization, fairness, 1 cpu, 1 vote?.  ROFL.

Crypto mining is an arms race, Greed, Companies play dirty, At the end of the day you gota be in it to make money or your gonna get rekt.

I imagine that these will probably sell out pretty fast at first. Hopefully they will be more readily available shortly after release... it remains to be seen if the reduction in mining profits will reduce sales enough to make up for the Gamers that have been waiting 2 years for new tech.

I wouldn't call this a confirm for July, I would say this is a strong rumor for July.

Just because it's released in July doesn't mean it will be available in same month either.

We'll know more as dates get closer if its real.

Haha. Funneh.

The availability of these GPUs will probably depend on how good they are at mining. I reckon if they are mining beasts then we probably will be gouged. I highly doubt it though, seems like investing in GPU mining is so risky nowadays.

maybe the price is expensive and not too surprising whether the new release can restore the spirit of GPU miners but hopefully, this news can be a good start for the GPU miners.
