"The Japanese version of the Nvidia GTC event (Via VRWorld) was recently held and the company confirmed some previously leaked details about the upcoming Pascal GPUs. The next generation GP100 flagship will indeed boast HBM2 technology but will be limited to 16GB HBM2 with around 1TB/s of bandwidth at launch. The Tesla segment of Nvidia GPUs will also recieve NV link which will bypass the bottleneck of the PCI-e bus by using a custom interconnect that is roughly 5 times faster."

In the future, NVIDIA believes that VR would be more than just a platform for gamers, it will be one of the enabling technologies that offer a totally new way of social interaction among people."
