As anticipated a little over a month ago, Nvidia took advantage of CES in Las Vegas to add new references to its portfolio of GeForce RTX 30 graphics cards. It starts with the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti which will be the new flagship. of the brand. The features of this model echo those of the GeForce RTX 3090, with a look that is as massive as ever.
Nvidia is content to provide a few snippets of technical data. We just learned that the graphics card has 24 GB of GDDR6X memory at 2625 MHz – the GeForce RTX 3090 has 24 GB at 2438 MHz – and that it offers a raw power of 40 TFLOPS for the shaders, 78 TFLOPS for the raytracing and 320 TFLOPS for AI. Values a little higher than those of the GeForce RTX 3090. Nvidia promises more details soon.
At the opposite end of the range, there is the GeForce RTX 3050 which is intended for small gaming machines. This model is obviously very modest. It embeds 2560 computing units – the GeForce RTX 3060 has 3584 -, operates at an average Boost frequency of 1780 MHz and embeds 8 GB of GDDR6 interfaced on a 128-bit bus. Available from January 27 at a price of $ 249 HT, it will go up against the Radeon RX 6500 XT ($ 199 HT) just announced by AMD.
