The future of Graphic card promises to be energy-intensive, very energy-intensive although there is no question of finished products yet.
For several weeks now, rumors have been building up around new generations of graphics cards. AMD is working on RDNA 3 while NVIDIA is advancing its Ada Lovelace architecture.
Two 16-pin power ports!
It is about the latter that rumors are most frequent, and the latest is not likely to calm the ardor of opponents of the anticipated electrical gluttony of these new cards.
Although NVIDIA is still quite discreet on the subject, several sources have actually indicated that the most powerful GeForce RTX 4000 are planned for a TDP of 600 Watts. However, always very well informed, Kopite7kimi evokes an even more energy-consuming card.
NVIDIA would actually be testing a 900 Watt variant which could very well stick to a hypothetical and even more distant GeForce RTX 4090 Ti. A breadboard that would have not one, but two 16-pin power connectors.
Just to drive the point home and to insist on the monstrous side of this card – which remains in the state of rumor – Kopite7kimi specifies that its GPU is supported by 48 GB of GDDR6X video memory at 24 Gbps, sorry.
Remember that everything suggests that these GeForce RTX 4000 series – codenamed Ada Lovelace – will be announced and/or presented during the coming months of September or October.
