Quote:An Nvidia graphics card with a huge core count was apparently benchmarked with Geekbench 5 before any official announcement from the manufacturer, as spotted by a Twitter user. We were already taken aback by two unidentified Nvidia graphics cards last week listed with 7,552 and 6,912 CUDA cores. But this latest finding is mind-blowing, with the CUDA core count allegedly reaching 7,936.
Since this is hardware that Nvidia hasn't even confirmed yet, we should take the benchmark results with a grain of salt. Interestingly enough, the Geekbench 5 submission is from the same time frame as the submission for those other two unnanounced Nvidia cards. The system used even has the same CPU, an Intel Core i7-8700K, and motherboard, an Asus Prime Z370-A.
...
Given the scale of the specifications, all three unnanounced graphics cards potentially hail from the Quadro or Tesla families -- more likely the latter. What we can infer based on the specs shared on Geekbench is that the cards target workstation and data center users as opposed to gamers. The graphics cards are rumoredly based on Nvidia's upcoming Ampere microarchitecture using TSMC and Samsung's 7nm facilities.
