NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Twice as Fast as RTX 3090, Features 16128 CUDA Cores and 450W TDP
NVIDIA's next-generation GeForce RTX 40 series of graphics cards, codenamed Ada Lovelace, is shaping up to be a powerful graphics card lineup. Allegedly, we can expect to see a mid-July launch of NVIDIA's newest gaming offerings, where customers can expect some impressive performance. According to a reliable hardware leaker, kopite7kimi, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card will feature AD102-300 GPU SKU. This model is equipped with 126 Streaming Multiprocessors (SMs), which brings the total number of FP32 CUDA cores to 16128. Compared to the full AD102 GPU with 144 SMs, this leads us to think that there will be an RTX 4090 Ti model following up later as well.
Paired with 24 GB of 21 Gbps GDDR6X memory, the RTX 4090 graphics card has a TDP of 450 Watts. While this number may appear as a very power-hungry design, bear in mind that the targeted performance improvement over the previous RTX 3090 model is expected to be a two-fold scale. Paired with TSMC's new N4 node and new architecture design, performance scaling should follow at the cost of higher TDPs. These claims are yet to be validated by real-world benchmarks of independent tech media, so please take all of this information with a grain of salt and wait for TechPowerUp reviews once the card arrives.

"Features 16128 CUDA Cores"
Well that is a 60% increase, I would assume it to be at least that much faster as a minimum all other things considered equal.www.pcgamer.com/amds-top-next-gen-gpu-may-not-be-a-multi-chiplet-compute-monster-but-thats-better-for-everyone/
Plus any opportunity to knock ngreedia down a peg
but, what about rtx 4080, is it will using VRAM 16gb or 20gb ??
So they were effectively $1550 in a hypothetical world that doesn't have Etherium or COVID.
This is already a 320W gpu, Im not interested in anything that hogs much more power than this.
Lets see what appears from both AMD and nVidia, since Intel is *maybe* launching their Arc GPUs years late. Since they cant compete against the new stuff...
Hopefully these next gen cards drop the true/scalper price of current/prev gen cards. I can dream I guess...
MSRPs tell you whether you're being scalped the retailer as well as the manufacturer! :D
The TRUE next-gen GPUs needs to be at least 175% faster just to get steady frames in today's games.
I never understood where those 600 W or more rumors came from. TSMC 5N has triple the transistor density over Samsung 8N. And the 40 series might even be made on the 4N process.
So with "only" 16128 CUDA cores (much less than double over 3090), a 450 W TDP should mean a huge increase in the number of RT cores, and probably very high clocks.
Maybe the 4090 Ti can get to 600 W, with more shaders and even crazier clocks. But if it costs $3000, whether the TDP is 300 W or 600 W makes no difference, as only a few people will buy it anyway.
4080 will be 50% over 3080
the July launch will surprise a lot of people of true.
I would like to make a request for reviewing 4090 and 7900xt. Please make a summary graph of 4k, RT max, DLSS /FSR Quality mode.
this is how we will play games this gen
