New details have emerged about the GeForce RTX 40 SUPER series, confirming many of the rumors that have circulated for weeks now. NVIDIA has begun informing its partners about the upcoming line and, of course, that means more information is surfacing but this time around folks are getting a clearer picture of its official specifications. The three graphics cards in the new lineup are seemingly confirmed as the RTX 4080 SUPER, RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, and the RTX 4070 SUPER. NVIDIA is expected to make a formal announcement at CES 2024. All three graphics cards are said to launch in January.
Per VideoCardz:
“Earlier this week, NVIDIA started sharing more detailed information regarding the upcoming RTX 40 SUPER refresh to its partners. These companies have now received info featuring the core GPU specifications and requirements for the models now designated as SUPER variants.”
Perhaps the greatest shock with this rollout is that NVIDIA appears to be committed to combining its Ti and SUPER branding. While it could still abandon that decision, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is set to become the GPU manufacturer’s first graphics card with the two names. This could be due to it perhaps being the one card in the new refresh to receive the greatest combination of upgrades with increased memory on a different bus, more processing units, and a step up to the AD103 GPU.
Meanwhile, at the top of the SUPER stack is the RTX 4080 SUPER, which is now confirmed to be using a fully enabled AD103 GPU with 10,240 CUDA Cores and 16 GB GDDR6X. Next up, the aforementioned RTX 4070 Ti SUPER will use a cutdown AD103 GPU with 8,448 CUDA Cores, also with 16 GB of memory making it a noticeable step up from its non-SUPER predecessor. At the bottom of the stack is the RTX 4070 SUPER which sticks with the AD104 GPU but increases the enabled CUDA Cores to 7,168 and the same 12 GB of VRAM. All three cards are said to use the 12VHPWR connector.

As details about the new GeForce RTX 40 SUPER series continue to emerge there is still information yet to be revealed such as the amount of RT and Tensor cores each will have. Pricing for the SUPER series is rumored to be similar to its non-SUPER counterparts.
