NVIDIA presents the RTX 4000 Super cards at CES 2024, more powerful… and cheaper!
Although they were almost completely leaked a few days ago, we can now confirm all the specifications of the new RTX 4080 Super, RTX 4070Ti Super, and RTX 4070 Super cards from NVIDIA. And we finally know the prices, which have surprised us because they are equal to or lower than the standard versions.
In recent years, many NVIDIA card users have felt that the company has left them stranded. First during the pandemic, unable to offer cards in stock due to cryptocurrency mining, and then due to the brutal price increase.
NVIDIA is no longer dependent on gamersis now bathed in gold thanks to its GPUs for artificial intelligence, which is why in recent years we have seen how many cards have not represented a huge jump in power, but they have increased a lot in price.
It seems that NVIDIA wants to correct this a little with its new Super rangewhich fixes limitations of the standard versions, improves performance a bit, and maintains and even lowers the priceto the relief of fans
RTX 4000 Super: specifications and price
There are three cards that are released with this new range: RTX 4080 Super, RTX 4070 Ti Super, and RTX 4070 Super.
A few days ago we recommended not buying an RTX card until you know the price of the Super, and it was good advice. Not only are they worth the same or less, but the previous generation will drop in price.
The RTX 4080 Super will cost 1,119 euros, a reduction of 210 euros compared to the standard model, which will drop in price. It goes on sale on January 31.
The RTX 4070 Ti Super costs 899 euros, and can be purchased on January 24. The standard version RTX 4070 Ti is currently priced at €869. But the new model is much superior, as we will see.
The RTX 4070 Super stays at 669 euros, the same as the RTX 4070, which is already dropping in price. It goes on sale on January 17.
Here you can see the specifications of the new RTX 4000 Super graphics cards:
The new one RTX 4070 Super It has 15% more TFLOPS in Shaders and ray tracing, more AI cores and the same graphics memory.
We see the most important leap in the RTX 4070 Ti Super. Not in performance, which is barely 5 or 10% higher, but in memory bandwidth and the amount, what happens 12 to 16 GB GDDR6X memory. This eliminates the main bottleneck of the RTX 4070.
Finally, the most powerful model is the card RTX 4080 Superwhich is only 5 or 10% faster than the standard one, but costs 200 euros less.
The news RTX 4000 Super They are not designed for those who have the standard version to change cards. But they do want to make things more difficult for the new AMD Radeons, and attract older generation userssince they are somewhat more powerful, eliminate limitations, and are worth the same or cheaper.
