The obvious problem now, though, is that rather than just flagship territory – which is expected to be difficult and demanding GPU terrain – we’re looking at the xx80 tier supposedly calling for what could be an 800W (or maybe even greater) PSU requirement.
There could be only a 30W difference between the RTX 40 going by Nvidia’s past form, because indeed if you look at the 30, the gap was exactly that – a 320W power consumption for the former, and 350W for the latter. That has led some to suggest that we might be looking at more like 500W for the 4090, but that’s not necessarily the case. Furthermore, Kopite7kimi asserts that they are 99% confident in this most recent 420W prediction, which is a pretty strong statement to make.Īnother interesting point here is that if the RTX 4080 does end up at 420W, for argument’s sake, where does that leave the RTX 4090? Most recently we’ve heard that the flagship will demand 450W, which isn’t all that much more than the purported draw for the 4080 – just 30W. Naturally, it might be the case that this speculation, or the leaker’s sources, are considerably off the mark, but at this point, that seems unlikely (and the rest of the rumor mill doesn’t disagree, broadly). The TGP situation could’ve been worse by all accounts, though, because Kopite7kimi was still talking about the possibility of the RTX 4080 hitting 450W not much more than a few days ago. And it’s not just about extra cost with a power supply upgrade, as it’s one of the fiddlier procedures to undertake in terms of the cabling the whole thing’s a bit of a faff. Of course, that doesn’t mean this won’t be a bitter PSU pill for some gamers to swallow, as far from everyone has an 800W+ unit nestling in their PC. We were hoping 400W would sit about right if that guestimate turns out to be correct, but 420W isn’t far off. And regarding the RTX 4080 specifically, we’ve previously been given the expectation of something like 350W to 450W for the TGP. There’s been plenty of talk about major power draw for Lovelace on the grapevine for ages now, as Nvidia apparently looks to put the pedal firmly to the metal in terms of accelerating performance.

Possibly, but that’s no real surpriseĭoes that mean we’re looking at an RTX 4080 which requires a power supply of 800W, then, or thereabouts? Well, that seems a likely possibility if that figure of 420W for the TGP is correct.Īll this may seem rather outlandish, but it’s not really a surprise. The card's dimensions are 285 mm x 112 mm x 40 mm, and it features a dual-slot cooling solution. GeForce RTX 3080 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 4.0 x16 interface.
Display outputs include: 1x HDMI 2.1, 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 1440 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1710 MHz, memory is running at 1188 MHz (19 Gbps effective).īeing a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 draws power from 1x 12-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 320 W maximum.
NVIDIA has paired 10 GB GDDR6X memory with the GeForce RTX 3080, which are connected using a 320-bit memory interface. The card also has 68 raytracing acceleration cores. Also included are 272 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. It features 8704 shading units, 272 texture mapping units, and 96 ROPs. Unlike the fully unlocked GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, which uses the same GPU but has all 10752 shaders enabled, NVIDIA has disabled some shading units on the GeForce RTX 3080 to reach the product's target shader count. The GA102 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 628 mm² and 28,300 million transistors. Additionally, the DirectX 12 Ultimate capability guarantees support for hardware-raytracing, variable-rate shading and more, in upcoming video games.
This ensures that all modern games will run on GeForce RTX 3080. Built on the 8 nm process, and based on the GA102 graphics processor, in its GA102-200-KD-A1 variant, the card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate. The GeForce RTX 3080 is an enthusiast-class graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on September 1st, 2020.
