The RTX 4080 may be more powerful than expected

The well-known leaker @ kopite7kimi, of which we have already spoken to you recently for his advances regarding the upcoming NVIDIA graphics cards, such as the RTX 4090 and RTX 4070 Ti, belonging to the "Ada Lovelace" generation which should debut on the market next autumn , returns today to talk about the RTX 4080, which could be more powerful than expected.

In fact, as you can read from the message posted on Twitter, the board, which will use the PG136 / 139-SKU360 PCB, will be based on the AD103-300-A1 GPU, with 9,725 CUDA cores (or 76SM), accompanied by 16GB of GDDR6X with a speed of 21Gb / s on a 256-bit bus, for a maximum total bandwidth of 672GB / s. Unfortunately, the operating frequencies are not specified, but presumably we should expect clocks in the range of 2.0-3.0 GHz considering the use of TSMC's N4 production node. Finally, the TGP should be around 420W, while the score achieved in the 3DMark Time Spy Extreme test will be more or less than 15,000.

I'm not a chatterbox, but I have to make some updates. I hope you don't mind.

a possible RTX 4080,

PG136 / 139-SKU360

AD103-300-A1

9728FP32

256bit 16G 21Gbps GDDR6X

total power ~ 420W

TSE ~ 15000

Now I have completed the latest update for 4090, 4080 and 4070.

Ultimately, we are talking about a more powerful product than the current top of the Ampere range, namely the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, by 35%. A great leap forward compared to the model it will replace (the RTX 3080). From the technological point of view, in addition to the greater computing capacity, the RTX 4080, as well as the rest of the RTX 40 family, will be able to rely on all the latest technologies of the company, such as the fourth generation Tensor cores, third generation RT cores. generation, NVENC Encoder and NVCDEC Decoder, as well as support for the latest API and exclusive features such as DLSS, Reflex, Broadcast, Resizable-BAR, Freestyle, Ansel, Highlights, Shadowplay and G-SYNC.
