Nvidia CEO: No Next-gen Geforce GPUs For A 'Long Time, But G-sync BFGDs Coming Soon

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

The gamers hoping, wishing, and praying for a new generation of GeForce cards to arrive at Computex got some bad news from the company’s CEO during a press briefing at the trade show: The hardware won’t show up for a “long time.”

When reporters asked when the new GeForce GPUs would launch, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang responded, “It’s a long time from now.”

Huang had just finished announcing Nvidia’s Jetson Xavier, which Huang said is the first computer designed specifically for robotics. Powered by six processors— including a Volta Tensor core GPU, eight ARM64 cores, and deep learning accelerators and image processors—Xavier is the kind of computer that could be used to build a robot to hand you a wrench in the lab, like Tony Stark’s Jarvis.
