Rumor: NVIDIA will launch the GeForce RTX 30 SUPER series in January next year

According to previous reports, Nvidia will launch GeForce RTX 30 SUPER series GPUs early next year, targeting both desktop and mobile platforms. Moreover, a new GA103 GPU is prepared, which is still manufactured using Samsung’s 8nm process. It will be used on the GeForce RTX 3080 SUPER, but the performance will be lower than the current GeForce RTX 3090. GeForce RTX 3090 SUPER will use GA102-400 GPU, with 10752 CUDA cores, power consumption will exceed 400W, and memory speed will be higher, reaching 21 Gbps.

Nvidia’s next-generation Ada Lovelace architecture GPU will be manufactured using TSMC’s N5 process, and the flagship product AD102 is a 600mm² large chip. It will be equipped with 18432 CUDA cores, the performance is doubled on the basis of GA102, the power consumption is about 400W-450W, with GDDR6X memory, the bit width is 384 bits. The corresponding GeForce RTX 40 series will be launched before the end of 2022.

By next year, a situation is likely to occur, that is, Nvidia will update its product line twice within a year. According to Twitter user @greymon55, the launch of the GeForce RTX 30 SUPER series on mobile platforms early next year is certain, but the situation on desktop platforms is unpredictable. The previous generation GeForce RTX 20 series was updated about a year after its release, and the GeForce RTX 20 SUPER series was launched. Probably due to the general supply shortage in the semiconductor industry and the impact of the coronavirus epidemic, it is obvious that the products of the Ampere architecture are much slower in time.

In addition, Twitter user @greymon55 reiterated that Nvidia will launch the next-generation GPU in October next year. This point in time is not too surprising. After all, it is rumored that rival AMD will also release a new generation of RDNA 3 architecture GPU at this time point, namely Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards. Nvidia can’t delay for too long.
