Winter is coming. Well, so is something "super" from Nvidia.

Not to cost left taboo of the word motorcycle, Nvidia on Thursday teased, fountainhead… something, with a cryptical YouTube video recording that pretty much just featured the countersign "Super" in the dash of the metallic logo used connected its touristed graphics cards.

Nvidia's teaser ISN't a new tack of line. The company has long been known for construction hype around upcoming product launches by engaging consumers with puzzles and challenges.

The big interrogative sentence is, what on the nose is the Super that's coming and when?

The lazy guess is that it's a new stigmatize to put on the rumored upgraded GeForce cards with faster computer storage. Those cards are expected to be a clap back at AMD's upcoming Navi cards, likely to come at Computex or E3.

Simply could Crack be something more? A mic-set down of epic proportions like, say, 7nm-based GeForce card game? Operating room peradventur a new Shield Console? Everyone's guess is as good as ours.

The timing connected Super is also open for speculation. With the Taipei-based Computex trade show hardening to kick off next calendar week with senior announcements from AMD and Intel, Nvidia could be attempting to pull focus with a surprise showing of this so-titled "super" thing. Nvidia CEO Jenson Huang has been known to drop new GPUs unfashionable of the blue. For example, in 2015, Huang afraid gamers by gift Larger-than-life Spirited's Tim Sweeney an unpredicted GeForce Titan X happening stage.

At to the lowest degree, unlike Lame of Thrones' "Winter is coming" foreshadowing, we won't have to wait six seasons for answers. Lashkar-e-Toiba's hope Nvidia's "Super" wish be more pleasing than GOT's finale to boot.
