For our next generation of graphics cards (NOT CHEAP, though):
Nvidia (NVDA) marketing of Turing-based chips will be key to fending off challenge from rival, analyst says
Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) launched a new line of gaming cards Tuesday that seeks to normalize the arms race with rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc.(AMD)
On Tuesday, Nvidia(NVDA) announced a "Super" brand of its RTX line of Turing-based gaming cards, which allow real- time ray tracing, letting a computer render realistic-looking lighting and shading. Nvidia(NVDA) said it would launch its RTX 2060 Super and RTX 2070 Super cards on July 9, and its RTX 2080 Super card on July 23.
The 2080 Super, which Nvidia(NVDA) said is faster than its current top-of-the-line Titan Xp chipset, will retail for $699, while the 2070 Super will retail for $499 and the 2060 Super will cost $399. The company said it would keep selling its RTX 2060 chipset for $349.
The announcement comes about a month after rival AMD (AMD) took aim at Nvidia(NVDA), long the market leader in consumer gaming cards, with new offerings. At the beginning of June, AMD shares rallied 10% in one day after the company announced the Radeon RX 5000-series of gaming chipsets (http://www.marketwatch.com/story/amd-stock-rallies-as-promised- new-products-start-getting-launched-2019-05-28). Then, a little more than a week later, AMD Chief Executive Lisa Su said their "best of the best" Radeon 5700 XT gaming card would retail for $499 in July.
