NVIDIA releases GeForce RTX 40 SUPER series graphics cards
NVIDIA has announced the launch of its GeForce RTX 40 SUPER series graphics cards, a triumvirate of new offerings based on the Ada Lovelace architecture. The lineup comprises the RTX 4080 SUPER, RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, and RTX 4070 SUPER.
The GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is equipped with the AD103, boasting a 64MB L2 cache, and is furnished with 10,240 CUDA cores, an increment of 512 cores or approximately 5.3% over the existing RTX 4080’s 9,728 cores. The base and boost frequencies are elevated to 2,295MHz and 2,550MHz, respectively, marking an enhancement of 90/50MHz. Moreover, it retains a 16GB memory capacity, with the memory speed advancing from 22.4Gbps to 23Gbps. The corresponding memory bandwidth escalates from 717GB/s to 736GB/s. The PCB bears the designation PG139-SKU355, and the overall power consumption remains steadfast at 320W.
The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, featuring the AD103 and a 48MB L2 cache, comprises 8,448 CUDA cores, a 10% increase over the existing RTX 4070 Ti’s 7,680 cores. The base frequency is augmented by 30MHz to 2,340MHz, while the boost frequency remains constant at 2,620MHz. Its PCB is identified as PG141-SKU323, with the total power consumption sustained at 285W. The most significant change in this model lies in its memory: it will be equipped with 16GB of GDDR6X, implying that the memory width has expanded from 192 bits to 256 bits, and the memory bandwidth has surged dramatically from 504GB/s to 672GB/s.
The GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER, carrying the AD104, sees its L2 cache rise from the current RTX 4070’s 36MB to 48MB, and the CUDA core count increase from 5,888 to 7,168, a notable boost of about 21.7%. The base frequency is raised by 60MHz to 1,980MHz, with the boost frequency remaining at 2,475MHz. It will also maintain a 12GB memory capacity, with a memory frequency of 21Gbps and a bandwidth of 504GB/s. The PCB is labeled as PG141-SKU335, and the total power consumption is marginally increased by 20W to 220W.
NVIDIA has also unveiled the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) for these new graphics cards. The RTX 4080 SUPER, RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, and RTX 4070 SUPER are priced at $999, $799, and $599, respectively.
