NVIDIA says huge demand for RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 - the company is preparing many new GeForce RTX 40-series products

CFO Colette Kress took the opening remarks at the quarterly reporting conference NVIDIA called the past stages of debut of graphics cards with GPUs based on Ada Lovelace architecture extremely successful.
GeForce RTX 4090 has been sold out in many markets since mid-October, the GeForce RTX 4080 is already on sale, and in general, NVIDIA is ready to offer \"many new products\" with this gaming architecture.Image source: NVIDIAThe last promise was made by the founder and permanent head of NVIDIA Jensen Huang (Jensen Huang).
He stressed that now Ada Lovelace architecture carriers are positioned in the upper price segment.
GeForce RTX 4090 graphics cards were released in large quantities, but this did not prevent customers from buying out their first batch in just minutes, as stated by the CEO of NVIDIA.
The market, he said, has received both the GeForce RTX 4090 and GeForce RTX 4080 very favorably, and therefore management is very enthusiastic about this debut.
In addition, it proves the strength, resilience and transparency of the gaming segment of the market, as summarized by the company's founder.In the third quarter of the current fiscal year, as explained by NVIDIA management in response to a related question from analysts at the quarterly event, the value equivalent of product inventory increased by $560 million sequentially.According to the company's CFO, this increase was only partly due to the need to accumulate a certain inventory of new architecture media: Ada Lovelace in the gaming segment and Hopper in c The networking segment, which is chiefly served by Mellanox products, also had a significant impact on the stock growth.
The company had to write off $702 mn of stocks, but the bulk of these losses were accounted for by A100 computing gas pedals.
Recall, the latter were intended for use in server systems by Chinese customers, but in the third quarter, after the new U.S.
sanctions the company hastily offered them a replacement in the form of a chip A800, whose performance is limited at the hardware level, and therefore avoids the U.S.
sanctions.
As a result, demand from Chinese customers switched to new \"alternative solutions\" and part of the stock of old A100s had to be written off.
As noted by NVIDIA executives at the quarterly event, the negative impact of sanctions in the third quarter was largely offset by the introduction of gas pedals A800 to the Chinese market, clearly adapted to the new U.S.
export control requirements.

NVIDIA unannounced GeForce RTX 4080 12GB and announced RTX 4080 16GB release date

NVIDIA has, as the company itself put it, \"unannounced\" the junior version of GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card with 12 GB memory.
In more familiar terms: the company has changed its mind about releasing it.
Along with this, the manufacturer called the start date of sales of the older version of the GeForce RTX 4080 with 16 GB of memory - November 16.NVIDIA has introduced two versions of the GeForce RTX 4080 at the same time as the flagship GeForce RTX 4090, which has already gone on sale at an event on September 20.
At the time, many noticed that the GeForce RTX 4080 12GB differs from the GeForce RTX 4080 16GB not only in the amount of RAM.
The older version is built on a GPU AD103-300 with 9728 CUDA cores, while the younger version has a chip AD104-400 with 7680 CUDA cores.
Of course, the chips differ in the number of other functional elements.
The difference is very significant, as also showed the tests of NVIDIA itself, published recently.
The younger model turned out to be about 24-30% slower than the older one.
Therefore, many users agreed that it would be fairer to release a junior model under the name GeForce RTX 4070.And NVIDIA has decided to listen to the opinion of the audience.
The company stated that \"the RTX 4080 12GB is a fantastic graphics card, but it's misnamed.\" It also noted that \"having two graphics cards with the 4080 designation is confusing.
This suggests that the \"unannounced\" graphics card will indeed end up debuting as a GeForce RTX 4070.

GeForce RTX 4090 and GeForce RTX 4080 16GB can conquer 3.0 GHz, leaks show

Graphics processors of NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 and GeForce RTX 4080 16GB graphics cards can run at 3.0 GHz.
This is indicated by leaks collected by VideoCardz.
Recall that the GeForce RTX 4090 and GeForce RTX 4080 16GB GPUs have officially announced clock speeds of 2520 and 2505 MHz under load, respectively.Image source: BillibiliSam NVIDIA previously demonstrated that the GeForce RTX 4090 is able to run up to 2.85 GHz under load and without additional overclocking.
The transition to the new architecture Ada Lovelace and more advanced GPU manufacturing process in next-generation graphics cards, apparently, also laid a huge potential for additional manual overclocking of new gas pedals.
According to a leak appeared in the Chinese social network Bilibili, in the stress test graphics subsystem with MSI Kombustor application graphics processor GeForce RTX 4090 card worked without problems at 3.0 GHz, while the power consumption of the whole graphics card was almost 426 W.
On this basis, we can assume that in less stressful conditions, the graphics card chip will be able to work at 3.1 GHz.
In addition, in the stress test Furmark GPU GeForce RTX 4090 worked at 2.64 GHz, but the peak power consumption of the video card was almost 616 W.
Recall that the officially announced power consumption figure GeForce RTX 4090 is 450 watts.Unfortunately, the leak does not disclose data on the temperature performance of the GPU and other elements on the graphics card.
According to another leak, GeForce RTX 4080 16GB is also capable of running at 3.0 GHz.
It is very likely that here we are also talking about additional manual overclocking of the gas pedal.
The data was provided by the same source which previously reported on the performance of the graphics card in the synthetic tests 3DMark Fire Strike Ultra and 3DMark Time Spy.
Source image: ChirhellThe new leak indicates that the maximum temperature of the graphics processor was 60.8 ° C, and the hottest point of the graphics card temperature reached 75.4 ° C.
According to GPU-Z software, the peak power consumption of the gas pedal was 333W and 290.7W for the GPU.
Recall that the official stated power consumption figure GeForce RTX 4080 16GB is 320 watts.
Source image: CrystalThe overclocking performance of GeForce RTX 4080 16GB graphics card was tested in the 3DMark Time Spy synthetic test.
Due to the higher frequency after manual overclocking the gas pedal got away from its competitors even more, as you can see in the table below.
Source image: VideoCardzThe flagship GeForce RTX 4090 will go on sale on October 12.
Its recommended price is $1599.
The GeForce RTX 4080 16GB will go on sale in November.
Its suggested price is $1199.

NVIDIA unveils RTX 6000 professional graphics card - Ada Lovelace architecture and 48 GB GDDR6 with ECC

In addition to the next generation GeForce RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 graphics cards with Ada Lovelace architecture, NVIDIA at the GTC conference introduced the NVIDIA RTX 6000 professional graphics gas pedal for workstations with the same architecture.
The manufacturer notes that new product provides 2-4 times higher performance in professional tasks compared to previous generation RTX A6000 model on Ampere architecture.Image source: NVIDIAThe main features of Ada Lovelace graphics architecture and, therefore, graphics cards based on it are: Third-generation RT cores that deliver up to two times faster performance in ray tracing operations compared to the previous generation; fourth-generation tensor cores that are up to two times faster in AI-learning operations thanks to extended FP8 data format support; and CUDA cores that are up to two times faster in single precision operations compared to the previous generation solutions.
The NVIDIA RTX 6000 professional graphics gas pedal features a GPU with 18,176 CUDA cores, 568 tensor cores and 142 RT cores.
The graphics card has 48 GB of GDDR6 memory with error correction feature (ECC).
The declared indicator of power consumption is equal to 300 watts.
It has active cooling system and works with PCIe 4.0 x16.
The card offers four DisplayPort 1.4 connectors.For professional card also declared support for vGPU virtualization technology and up to three times the performance when encoding video for streaming multiple simultaneous sessions XR using NVIDIA CloudXR in comparison with the previous generation.NVIDIA RTX 6000 professional graphics card will be available from the main partners of the company in December.
The price has not yet been announced, but we note that the last generation RTX A6000 graphics card cost $5000, so the new product is likely to be more expensive as its gaming brethren.

NVIDIA has unveiled DLSS 3 upscaling technology that can build entire frames

Along with the Ada Lovelace architecture and GeForce RTX 4000 graphics cards, NVIDIA has announced DLSS 3 upscaling technology, which, according to the company, can improve gaming performance by four times (compared to conventional rendering at the target resolution).
NVIDIA promises a rapid implementation of the new technology: the first games with DLSS 3 support will appear in October.
DLSS 3 technology is a further development in NVIDIA's family of AI scaling algorithms.
DLSS 3 differs from previous versions of the technology in that it can now not only generate additional pixels in existing frames when increasing the resolution, but also build entirely new intermediate frames.
When upscaling, DLSS 3 handles four types of data: current and previous frames, the optical flow field, as well as game engine data such as motion and depth vectors.
The optical flow field is a completely new element in upscaling technology and is created by an optical flow hardware gas pedal added to the Ada Lovelace architecture.
Optical flow analysis involves sequentially comparing image frames and identifying relationships between pixel movements and objects (particles, reflections, shadows, etc.).
Comparing this data with motion data taken from the game engine allows you to accurately recreate the changes in geometry occurring in the scene.
The AI algorithm in DLSS 3 analyzes the information from all sources and chooses which data is best used for scaling and for building intermediate frames in each case.DLSS 3 actively uses the hardware features of the Ada Lovelace architecture - not only the optical stream gas pedal, but also the new fourth-generation tensor cores.
Thus, DLSS 3 technology is dependent on the new architecture and will only be available on GeForce RTX 4000 series graphics cards.NVIDIA has shown how DLSS 3 works, using the pre-release version of Cyberpunk 2077.
When you activate DLSS 3, the FPS growth reached four times, while the frame delay was cut in half without any apparent decrease in image quality.A great advantage of DLSS 3 is that the technology allows you to increase the frame rate even when the bottleneck in the system is the CPU.
Building intermediate frames allows you to increase FPS in CPU-dependent games with a large open world.
For example, during the demonstration in Microsoft Flight Simulator game, the frame rate with DLSS 3 enabling doubled.Also NVIDIA shared the summary results of DLSS 3 performance tests in a number of other games.
DLSS 3 has received support from major game and engine developers, and will be added to more than 35 titles in the first phase, including A Plague Tale: Requiem, Cyberpunk 2077, Microsoft Flight Simulator and Warhammer 40,000: Darktide.

GeForce RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 will be announced tonight

NVIDIA's GTC conference kicks off tonight, which will traditionally focus on graphics technology.
The CEO Jensen Huang will be on hand to unveil the next generation of GeForce RTX 4000 desktop gaming graphics cards.Image source: NVIDIAThe event will start at 18:00 hrs (Moscow time).
Follow the presentation will be available on the YouTube channel NVIDIA.On the upcoming announcement of the new GeForce RTX series gas pedals NVIDIA company began hinting in their social networks a few weeks ago.
Thanks to this, for example, confirmed the name of the new graphics architecture of future gas pedals.
It was chosen in honor of the 19th century British mathematician Ada Lovelace.
For the development of the program for the first analytical machine, created by her colleague Charles Babbage (Charles Babbage), Lovelace is considered the first programmer in history.Any forthcoming announcement of a new product is traditionally accompanied by numerous rumors and leaks.
Some of these are eventually confirmed, but many things usually remain a figment of the imagination of their sources.
According to recent rumors, NVIDIA today will present only three graphics cards of a new generation of GeForce RTX.Actual logo GeForce RTXFlagship model in the family should be the GeForce RTX 4090.
She is attributed to use a GPU AD102-300 with 16 384 cores CUDA, capable of running at speeds up to 2520 MHz.
Leaks confirm that the card will get 24 GB of GDDR6X memory.
Presumably, this memory runs at an effective frequency of 21 GHz (21 Gbps per pin), and its bandwidth is at 1 Tbytes per second, just like the current GeForce RTX 3090 Ti.
The base (stated) power consumption of the GeForce RTX 4090 gas pedal can be 450 watts.
At the same time, the video card power supply subsystem will be designed for power consumption up to 660 W.New logo GeForce RTXThe second expected novelty - GeForce RTX 4080 with 16 GB of memory GDDR6X.
It is based on the AD103-300 processor with 9728 CUDA cores, running at up to 2505 MHz.
Rumors claim that the memory of this gas pedal will run at 23 Gbps per contact (effective frequency of 23 GHz).
The rumors also attribute the graphics card base power consumption at 340W, which can be ramped up to 516W.Instead of GeForce RTX 4070 Ti or RTX 4070 the company may present an alternative version of the GeForce RTX 4080 with 12GB of memory.
NVIDIA decided to change the name at the last minute, according to various sources.
This model will be based on the AD104-400 processor with 7,680 CUDA cores and up to 2,610 MHz.
GDDR6X memory speed will be 21Gbps per pin.
Power consumption index is projected at 285 W (up to 366 W maximum).GeForce RTX 4070 model in recent rumors does not appear, and its announcement at today's event is not expected.According to the informants, on sale GeForce RTX 4090 should appear in the first half of October, and senior GeForce RTX 4080 - in the first half of November.
Prices of graphics cards are expected to be relatively high, because NVIDIA has not had time to clear the warehouse from the last generation of cards, and the new GeForce RTX 4000 should not interfere with the sales of RTX 3000 series cards.
However, all of the above is just a rumor.
How it will be in reality - we will find out tonight.

NVIDIA started talking about GeForce RTX 4000 with riddles, one of which revealed the name of the architecture

In anticipation of the announcement of the new series of graphics gas pedals GeForce RTX 4000 company decided to entertain its audience with riddles and puzzles to fuel interest in the upcoming event.Image source: VideoCardz / NVIDIAThe week before the company on its Twitter page published a graphics riddle, consisting of images of triangles.
Inquisitive users solved it quite quickly.
It turned out that the number of triangles in the vertical columns corresponds to a certain letter in the English alphabet and indicates its serial number.
As a result, the clue was the message GeForce Beyond, referring to the event of the same name, which NVIDIA will hold on September 20.
Image source: Twitter / @RedSunFXThe new mystery appeared today, it is a short video showing a computer table, monitors and a table lying on the table.
The table is a diagram of an algorithm for calculating Bernoulli numbers.
It was created by the English mathematician Ada Lovelace in 1843 for an analytic machine designed by the British mathematician Charles Babbage.
Lovelace wrote the world's first program for this machine and coined the terms \"cycle\" and \"working cell.
She is also considered the first programmer in history.
Mentioning the above table, NVIDIA has indirectly confirmed rumors that the new graphics architecture of GeForce RTX 40-series gaming video cards is called Ada Lovelace.Some users have also noticed a note glued to one of the monitors in the video.
The sticker contains some numbers, which in one of the assumptions may indicate the characteristics of a senior graphics processor AD102, the underlying flagship video card GeForce RTX 4090.Number 629, for example, could indicate the area of the GPU chip, which is 629 mm2, 7538 in turn may indicate the number of transistors in the GPU - 75.38 billion.
But about the first number no conclusive assumptions.
However, some think it hints at a performance gain AD102 chip compared to GA102 (it is used in the GeForce RTX 3090) by 2.08 times.According to recent rumors, next week NVIDIA will present only three graphics cards of the new generation: GeForce RTX 4090, GeForce RTX 4080 with 16 GB of memory and GeForce RTX 4080 with 12 GB of memory.
At the same time in October we should expect to see only the flagship gas pedal on sale.

For NVIDIA, the situation in the gaming graphics card segment will start to change for the better in January

Like NVIDIA management, outside analysts are expressing hope that the release of new GeForce RTX 40 family gaming graphics cards, combined with efforts to rid inventory from previous generation products, will allow the company to overcome the acute phase of its overproduction crisis by the end of this year.
The fourth quarter should be the toughest period for NVIDIA in the gaming market.Image source: NVIDIAAnalysts at Stifel this week stressed that NVIDIA has an excellent long-term outlook, but the short-term remains murky as it is difficult to predict when it will get rid of surplus gaming GPUs and begin to build core revenues again.
The market for computing gas pedals in the long term can provide NVIDIA to enter the segment with an annual turnover of up to $1 trillion, and the company will get a significant share of this market.Demand in the gaming segment will not grow until the end of the current fiscal year, which in the calendar NVIDIA will end by the end of January, as explained by representatives Stifel.
In terms of the prospects of demand recovery in the gaming segment, the fourth quarter will be the \"bottom\" from which NVIDIA will further push on its way to revenue growth.
In addition, in the fourth quarter, the company's revenue will be positively influenced by the beginning of mass deliveries of calculation gas pedals with Hopper architecture.
Now, according to the representatives of Stifel, NVIDIA significantly limited the supply of gaming graphics processors, and the release of new products from the family Ada Lovelace will push them to increase, but the revenue will affect not until the next calendar year.

Image of GeForce RTX 4080 in Colorful iGame Ultra OC design appeared on the web

Image of GeForce RTX 4080 graphics gas pedal in Colorful iGame Ultra OC design appeared on the web.
TweakTown reported it on the web and got it from an anonymous source.Image source: TweakTown.comResource warns that the image could be a fake, so you should treat the report with a healthy dose of skepticism.
According to the source, Colorful GeForce RTX 4080 iGame Ultra OC is equipped with one 12+4-pin PCIe 5.0 auxiliary power connector.
On the image you can also see that there are places on the board for the installation of two similar power connectors, probably saved for older models.Design gas pedal is very similar to the model iGame GeForce RTX 3060 Ultra W OC, except for the changed color theme design.
If GeForce RTX 3060 Ultra W OC is done in white color, the gas pedal of the new generation is painted in dark colors.In the picture of the packaging can be noted the inscription \"NVIDIA LOVELACE ARCH\", indicating that the new generation graphics cards use graphics architecture Ada Lovelace.
Unfortunately, the box does not indicate the amount and type of memory of the video card.Rumors attribute GeForce RTX 4080 graphics chip AD103-300 with 9728 CUDA cores in 76 SM-blocks (out of 84 possible).
They also say that the card will get 16 GB of GDDR6 memory with an effective frequency of 23 GHz (23 Gbit/s per contact) and support 256-bit interface, which will provide a memory bandwidth of up to 768 GB/s.
Supposedly, the declared power consumption level of this graphics card will be 340 W.
