The GeForce RTX 4070 will be a graphics card by NVIDIA, that is expected to launch in 2022. Built on the 5 nm process, and based on the AD104 graphics processor, the card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate. This ensures that all modern games will run on GeForce RTX 4070. Additionally, the DirectX 12 Ultimate capability guarantees support for hardware-raytracing, variable-rate shading and more, in upcoming video games. The AD104 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 300 mm². It features 7680 shading units, 240 texture mapping units, and 80 ROPs. Also included are 240 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. The card also has 60 raytracing acceleration cores. NVIDIA has paired 12 GB GDDR6 memory with the GeForce RTX 4070, which are connected using a 192-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 1925 MHz, which can be boosted up to 2075 MHz, memory is running at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective).
Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 draws power from 1x 12-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 300 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x HDMI 2.1, 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. GeForce RTX 4070 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 4.0 x16 interface. The card's dimensions are 336 mm x 140 mm x 61 mm, and it features a dual-slot cooling solution.
