Conclusion
NVIDIA is on a roll, starting off 2024 with three new GPU product launches, sweeping up and refreshing its GeForce RTX 40 series, which is only a year old at this point. With the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER slotting in better performance, at a lower price, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER slotting in better performance at the same price point, and the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER offering better performance at the same price point, NVIDIA has provided better value in these price segments compared to the previous generation.
We would have liked to have seen this from the initial launch of the GeForce RTX 4070, 4070 Ti, and 4080, it has been a full year, but this does bode well for making 2024 start off with a better price to performance and cost per frame improvement from the previous year and previous generation of RTX 30 series GPUs. If you have been holding out to upgrade, the SUPER series may be just what you are looking for and finally provide that substantial upgrade you look for from generation to generation. We look forward to reviewing each one, finding out all the facts, and being able to provide an informed buying decision, so stay tuned.
As for all the other technologies from NVIDIA’s announcements at CES 2024, things are looking very up for NVIDIA, especially on the LLM or “AI” front. NVIDIA has been a huge force in pushing forward neural networks, large language models, and AI acceleration for years. Who knew how big this whole thing would get when “RTX” features were introduced in the GeForce RTX 20 series GPUs so many years ago now? DLSS was just the start of something big, and it is clear that NVIDIA had a bigger picture in mind when RTX GPUs were launched.
We were stunned by the NVIDIA Ace demo, if that is the future of AI-controlled NPCs and interaction, then the future is something straight out of movies we used to watch as kids, these kinds of things are coming to our lives very soon, and NVIDIA is pushing the way forward on that. You’ve also got all the generative AI as well, and now NVIDIA has a backlog of GPUs that provide acceleration via Tensor Cores. We know the whole “AI” thing gets thrown around a lot, and especially at CES, it’s everywhere. Like it or not, Large Language Models and Neural Networks are here to stay, and they will just keep evolving into hybrid designs.
