| 9:00a | NVIDIA GeForce Gamescom 2018 Keynote Live Blog (Starts at Noon ET) Join us here at noon ET for NVIDIA's Gamescom 2018 keynote. CEO Jensen Huang will once again be taking the stage at this GeForce-branded event, so we're expecting some big gaming news, especially in light of last week's Turing GPU architecture reveal. The event will be loaded with new, exclusive, hands-on demos of the hottest upcoming games, stage presentations from the world’s biggest game developers, and some spectacular surprises. |
| 12:45p | Hot Chips 2018: The Google Pixel Visual Core Live Blog (10am PT, 5pm UTC) Hot Chips has started! One of the first talks today is from Google, detailing the Pixel Visual Core processor found in the latest Pixel smartphones. The talk is called 'The Pixel Visual Core: Google’s Fully Programmable Image, Vision and AI Processor for Mobile Devices' |
| 1:00p | Hot Chips 2018: Samsung’s Exynos-M3 CPU Architecture Deep Dive As part of this year’s first conference talks at HotChips 2018 at the Flint Center for the Performing Arts in Cupertino, California, we’ve had the pleasure to finally hear Samsung’s official microarchitecture disclosure on this year’s most polarising new CPU design, the Exynos M3. |
| 2:25p | Hot Chips 2018: Intel on Graphics Live Blog (11:30am PT, 6:30pm UTC) Intel is talking graphics! We're expecting a lot of discussion about Kaby Lake G, with Radeon graphics, however the slide deck is going to talk a lot about power distribution methods in order to support the chip. |
| 2:55p | Hot Chips 2018: AMD APU Optimization Live Blog (Noon PT, 7pm UTC)
AMD is also at Hot Chips, speaking about Raven Ridge and its APUs. The key elements to this talk will be the optimizations made for Raven Ridge, specifically around power and data management. We'll be live blogging the talk for everyone to follow. |
| 4:00p | NVIDIA Announces the GeForce RTX 20 Series: RTX 2080 Ti & 2080 on Sept. 20th, RTX 2070 in October NVIDIA’s Gamescom 2018 keynote just wrapped up, and as many have been expecting since it was announced last month, NVIDIA is getting ready to launch their next generation of GeForce hardware. Announced at the event and going on sale starting September 20th is NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 20 series, which is succeeding the current Pascal-powered GeForce GTX 10 series. Based on NVIDIA’s new Turing GPU architecture and built on TSMC’s 12nm “FFN” process, NVIDIA has lofty goals, looking to drive an entire paradigm shift in how games are rendered and how PC video cards are evaluated. CEO Jensen Huang has called Turing NVIDIA’s most important GPU architecture since 2006’s Tesla GPU architecture (G80 GPU), and from a features standpoint it’s clear that he’s not overstating matters. |
| 6:55p | Hot Chips 2018: SMIV DNN SoC for IoT Live Blog (4pm PT, 11pm UTC)
A slightly different talk from Hot Chips this time: here's a neural network processor aimed at IoT devices based in 16nm. The slides look interesting, so we're covering this talk too. |
| 7:55p | Hot Chips 2018: NVIDIA Xavier SoC Live Blog (5pm PT, Midnight UTC) NVIDIA has a couple of talks during Hot Chips, with this first one going into the Xavier SoC. |
| 8:18p | Hot Chips 2018: Microsoft Azure Sphere Live Blog (5:30pm PT, 12:30am UTC) For the security section of Hot Chips, the first talk is from Microsoft on their Azure Sphere, which is an end-to-end solution for securing microcontroller powered devices with the cloud. |
| 8:40p | Hot Chips 2018: Google Titan Live Blog (6pm PT, 1am UTC)
The second talk on security is on Google's Titan Root-of-Trust silicon that sits between the BIOS and the processor on its custom systems. |
