Recently, there have been rumors that NVIDIA was making ready a graphics card refresh. These dusted-off variations would take the type of RTX 40 Super and combine an RTX 4070 Super. Today we study that the cardboard in query will function a bigger GPU and extra VRAM than the present mannequin!
RTX 4070: a much bigger GPU, however above all, extra VRAM!
Of course, nothing has but been confirmed, however it seems to be as if the cardboard will include a much bigger GPU. Indeed, the present card options an AD104-250 with 46 SM. This corresponds to 5888 cuda cores, 184 TMUs and 64 ROPs. In phrases of reminiscence, the board options 12 GB GDDR6X on a 192-bit reminiscence bus. Memory bandwidth is 504.2 GB/s.
The Super variant might function a barely bigger GPU, within the type of an AD103. For the second, we don’t but know its traits. As for reminiscence, we’re speaking about 16 GB of VRAM, all on a 256-bit reminiscence bus. All this may contribute to a rise in reminiscence bandwidth.
There is likely to be two new playing cards sooner or later:
4070 D6: The similar spec as 4070 however shrinks to GDDR6
4070 tremendous: based mostly on AD103, has a 256bit bandwidth and 16G Vram— MEGAsizeGPU (@Zed__Wang) October 19, 2023
At the identical time, we study that NVIDIA might be providing a brand new model of the RTX 4070. This time, it might be a downgraded model with GDDR6 reminiscence as an alternative of GDDR6X. Inevitably, reminiscence bandwidth shall be decreased by the slower VRAM. It stays to be seen what influence this can have on costs… Same query for availability.
