NVIDIA‘s long-rumored RTX 4090 graphics card may be coming as early as July. According to industry leaker Kopite7Kimi — who most recently correctly predicted the RTX 3090’s specifications — the tech giant is gearing up to launch the first of its new tier GPUs this summer. The card is expected to draw 450W in power consumption alone, channeling that to its 16,128 cores. It’ll also reportedly come with 24GB of GDDR6X VRAM running at 21Gpbs.
At those specifications, the RTX 4090 will boast 50% more cores than the current RTX 3090. To make it even faster, the upcoming graphics card will be built on NVIDIA’s brand new Ada Lovelace architecture that’s rumored to include other hardware that can double its performance over the current generation of products.
Of course, the tech company has yet to unveil anything itself, so those waiting for an upgrade for their PC should best take Kopite7Kimi’s reports with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for more official updates from NVIDIA.
Mid July.
