The GeForce RTX 4070 AD103 is a high-end graphics card by NVIDIA, launched in March 2024. Built on the 5 nm process, and based on the AD103 graphics processor, in its AD103-175-K1-A1 variant, the card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate. This ensures that all modern games will run on GeForce RTX 4070 AD103. Additionally, the DirectX 12 Ultimate capability guarantees support for hardware-raytracing, variable-rate shading and more, in upcoming video games. The AD103 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 379 mm² and 45,900 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, which uses the same GPU but has all 10240 shaders enabled, NVIDIA has disabled some shading units on the GeForce RTX 4070 AD103 to reach the product's target shader count. It features 5888 shading units, 184 texture mapping units, and 64 ROPs. Also included are 184 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. The card also has 46 raytracing acceleration cores. NVIDIA has paired 12 GB GDDR6X memory with the GeForce RTX 4070 AD103, which are connected using a 192-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 1920 MHz, which can be boosted up to 2475 MHz, memory is running at 1313 MHz (21 Gbps effective). Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 AD103 draws power from 1x 16-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 200 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x HDMI 2.1, 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. GeForce RTX 4070 AD103 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 4.0 x16 interface. The card's dimensions are 240 mm x 110 mm x 40 mm, and it features a dual-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 599 US Dollars.
