Lenovo ThinkPad gaming laptop reveals RTX 3070/3080 Super for the first time

by ·

Recently, NVIDIA has been busy with the release of GeForce RTX 3080 Ti / RTX 3070 Ti and its subsequent sales. However, recently someone broke the news on Reddit that Nvidia has a new mobile GPU in the plan, the source of which is the configuration information of the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen4 gaming notebook.

At present, the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen4 gaming notebook has not yet been launched. The ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen3 gaming notebook uses GeForce GTX 1650 Ti Max-Q graphics. According to the leaked Lenovo product specification information map, the ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen4 gaming notebook will also provide the option of GeForce GTX 1650. What is more interesting is the unreleased mobile GPU mentioned in it.

According to the above information, the ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen4 game will be equipped with a 16-inch display, a slight increase in weight, and an Intel Tiger Lake-H processor, including Core i7 and i9 options, it can be matched with up to 64GB of DDR4-3200 memory and up to 2TB of SSD storage and supports RAID 0 configuration. On the graphics chip, several optional models are listed, including:
  • GeForce GTX 1650 Ti / 4GB GDDR6
  • GeForce RTX 3060 / 8GB GDDR6
  • GeForce RTX 3070 Super / 8GB GDDR6
  • GeForce RTX 3080 Super / 16GB GDDR6

This is the first time I have seen a GeForce RTX 3070 Super / RTX 3080 Super graphics card, but there is no specification information leaked in the data, but the memory capacity is provided. As a comparison, you can look at the current configuration information corresponding to the GeForce RTX 30 series mobile GPU: GeForce RTX 3080 has 6144 CUDA cores, 8GB/16GB GDDR6, 256-bit memory size, 80-150W; GeForce RTX 3070 has 5120 CUDA cores, 8GB GDDR6, 256-bit memory size, 80-125W.

It is reported that the GeForce RTX 30 series with the “Super” suffix will be products for mobile platforms. As for the specific situation, we need to wait. It is rumored that Nvidia still has GA103 core, but it seems that it has been canceled.
