Nvidia Geforce Rtx 3090 Ti Has Been Officially Introduced
NVIDIA today announced the latest graphics card to join its line of
unavailable cards, the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti. It is the company's latest
flagship graphics card and enhances the already existing RTX 3090, which was
announced in September 2020.
The latest RTX 3090 Ti has 10,752 CUDA
cores, compared to 10,496 in the RTX 3090. The boosted clock goes up to 1.86
GHz, while the base clock is slightly higher at 1.67 GHz. The memory
configuration is the same as the RTX 3090 with 24GB GDDR6X, although the card
speed has been increased from 19.5 Gbps to 21 Gbps, and it also has a 384-bit
memory interface width.
Digging further into the specifications,
the GPU supports the same technologies as the RTX 3090, the same 2nd
generation Ray Tracing core, the same 3rd generation tensor core, the same
Ampere architecture, NVIDIA DLSS, PCI Express Gen 4, NVLINK, and more. The
cores for the Ray Tracing have grown from 82 to 84 cores, and the Tensor core
from 328 to 336. The RTX 3090 Ti has 40 TFLOPS single-precision performance,
compared to 35 TFLOPS standard 3090,
reports Pocketnow.
The maximum resolution of the digital output is 7,680 x 4,320 (8K), and it has
the same screen connectors with HDMI and three DisplayPort outputs. It
supports up to four external monitors and has HDCP 2.3. The card itself is
also the same size as the RTX 3090 and measures 313 x 138 mm or 12.3 ”x
5.4”.
The maximum GPU temperature is 92 Celsius, compared to 93
Celsius for the 3090, and has a graphics card power of up to 450W. Due to
higher power consumption, NVIDIA also recommends a power supply of at least
850W instead of 750W in RTX 3090 GPUs. The card will require three PCIe 8-pin
cables or a 450W or larger PCIe Gen 5 cable.
The new founding
edition of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti costs $ 1,999 in the US and is
currently only available on BestBuy, which requires a purchase order. Given
the current situation of the GPU and the shortcomings of the chips, expect the
card to sell out immediately. It is unclear how many units will be available
initially.
