NVIDIA launches GeForce RTX 40 Super series graphics cards, delivering AI-powered excitement for PC gamers and developers

On Monday, January 8th, NVIDIA announced the launch of the GeForce RTX 40 Super series graphics cards, claiming that they can inject powerful AI-driven performance into gaming and creative work. These cards enhance the performance of the latest games and form the core of AI-powered personal computers (PCs), providing the ultimate way to experience AI on a PC.

NVIDIA introduced that the new Super series of GeForce RTX 40 includes three new models: GeForce RTX 4080 Super, GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super, and GeForce RTX 4070 Super. These graphics cards not only surpass their predecessors in performance but also possess the superpowers of NVIDIA's advanced ray tracing and AI technology platform, RTX, which can enhance the performance of games, applications, and AI tasks.

These new products are powered by NVIDIA's Ada Lovelace architecture (the third generation of RTX), providing 52 TFLOPS of shader performance, 121 RT TFLOPS of ray tracing performance, and up to 836 AI TOPS of AI performance. They start at $599 and will be available for purchase this month.

NVIDIA mentioned that the new products significantly improve computer computing power. NVIDIA's TensorRT is a software for high-performance deep learning inference, including deep learning inference optimizer and runtime that provides low latency and high throughput for inference applications. TensorRT-LLM for Windows is an open-source library that accelerates the inference performance of the latest large language models. In AI workloads, the GeForce RTX 4080 Super generates videos more than 1.5 times faster than the RTX 3080 Ti and images more than 1.7 times faster.

Matt Wuebbling, Vice President of Global GeForce Marketing at NVIDIA, stated that the GeForce RTX 40 Super series supports over 500 RTX games and apps, enabling users to be prepared for the wave of generative AI apps on PCs.

GeForce RTX 4070 Super to be released on January 17th, starting at $599

Among the three new models, the GeForce RTX 4070 Super will be released on January 17th, starting at $599 or CNY 4899.The graphics card is equipped with 20% more CUDA cores than the GeForce RTX 4070, making it perfect for gamers to play the latest popular games at the highest settings in 1440p resolution. In most graphics-intensive games, the performance of the GeForce RTX 4070 Super surpasses that of the RTX 3090, but with lower power consumption. With DLSS 3 enabled, the performance can reach 1.5 times that of the GeForce RTX 3090.

NVIDIA claims that the GeForce RTX 4070 Super can easily achieve frame rates exceeding 100 FPS in many outstanding games with high hardware requirements at 1440p resolution. This makes it the preferred choice for many gamers who seek a balance between price, performance, and game quality.

In China, the Founders Edition of the GeForce RTX 4070 Super will be available for purchase through JD.com. Customized graphics cards can be purchased from NVIDIA's partners in mainland China, including ASUS, Colorful, Gainward, GALAX, GIGABYTE, INNO3D, MSI, ZOTAC, Manli, Maxsun, Palit, and Yeston.

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super to be released on January 24th, starting at $799

The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super will be released on January 24th with a starting price of $799 or RMB 6499. This graphics card is equipped with more CUDA cores and larger VRAM, with the VRAM increased to 16GB and a 256-bit memory interface. This GPU can fully unleash the performance of 1440p high-refresh-rate displays and even allow players to enjoy games at 4K resolution. Moreover, this graphics card is also suitable for video editing and rendering large 3D scenes, making it a powerful tool for creators.

In games with high graphics requirements, the performance of the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super is 1.6 times that of the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, and with DLSS 3 enabled, it can reach 2.5 times.

In China, users can purchase the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super from NVIDIA's partners, including ASUS, Colorful, Gainward, GALAX, GIGABYTE, INNO3D, MSI, ZOTAC, Manli, Maxsun, Palit, and Yeston.

GeForce RTX 4080 Super to be released on January 31st, starting at $999

The GeForce RTX 4080 Super will be released on January 31st with a starting price of $999 or RMB 8099. The GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is equipped with more CUDA cores and features GDDR6X VRAM with an ultra-fast operating speed of up to 23 Gbps. It is perfect for 4K ray tracing games and demanding generative AI applications.In games like "Alan Wake 2," "Cyberpunk 2077," and "Portal" RTX editions, players can enjoy an immersive experience with ray tracing visual effects even when all other settings are set to the highest level. In graphics-intensive games, this graphics card can achieve 1.4 times the performance of the RTX 3080 Ti without enabling frame generation technology. With 836 AI TOPS and DLSS frame generation technology, performance can be further enhanced, allowing the RTX 4080 SUPER to achieve twice the speed of the RTX 3080 Ti.

For gamers who want to enjoy higher performance at higher resolutions, the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is the best choice, apart from the GeForce RTX 4090 and GeForce RTX 4090 D.

In addition to gaming and streaming, the GeForce RTX 40 SUPER series GPUs are also great for accelerating creative applications and improving productivity. Compared to previous-generation graphics cards, when using this graphics card, the running speed of 3D applications like Blender can be increased by up to 70%, helping users complete tasks faster and create better works. In new generative AI applications, the GeForce RTX 40 SUPER series graphics cards are significantly faster than the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti.

Compared to the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti, Stable Diffusion XL achieves a speed of 1.7 times in generating 1024x1024 images using Automatic1111's Stable Diffusion WebUI, and a speed of 1.5 times in generating videos in Stable Video Diffusion. It can create 25 frames of content using ComfyUI.

In China, the Founders Edition of the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti will be available for purchase through JD.com. Customized graphics cards can be purchased through partners such as ASUS, Colorful, GAINWARD, GALAX, GIGABYTE, INNO3D, MSI, ZOTAC, Manli, Maxsun, Mingxuan, and Yeston.
