ASUS has confirmed two new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 series graphics cards, GeForce RTX 3080 Ti and GeForce RTX 3060. Both graphics cards are scheduled to launch in early 21, but ASUS has already listed them on its support pages. and services.
ASUS GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 20 GB and GeForce RTX 3060 12 GB ROG STRIX custom graphics cards confirmed
Both graphics cards were detected by HXL (@ 9550pro) within the ASUS support and services page for graphics cards. The list includes the ROG STRIX variants of the GeForce RTX 30 series and also mentions the unreleased GeForce RTX 3080 Ti and GeForce RTX 3060 graphics cards, which we talked about in previous leaks.
The leak confirms that ASUS is working on overclocked and overclocked variants for its ROG STRIX series. The GeForce RTX 3080 Ti will have 20 GB of GDDR6X memory and the GeForce RTX 3060 will come equipped with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory. As both boards are customized variants, they will use the new ROG STRIX cooling solution that we saw in the existing GeForce RTX 30 ROG STRIX line and expect first-class cooling performance and a robust custom PCB design.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti graphics card specifications ‘rumored’
Details from Kopite7kimi suggest that the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti FE (Founders Edition) graphics card will feature the PG133-SKU15 PCB design and the GA102-250-KD-A1 graphics core. The GA102-250 GPU has also changed since the last time we saw it and is now exactly the same as the GeForce RTX 3090 on 10496 FP32 CUDA cores.
As for memory, the card will have 20 GB of GDDR6X memory. Unlike the RTX 3090’s 19.5 Gbps speeds, the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti retains the same memory speeds as the RTX 3080 at 19 Gbps. As we are getting a 20 GB bus interface, NVIDIA will use a 320 bit bus interface which is equivalent to a total bandwidth of 760 GB / s. The TGP for the board is set to be the same as the RTX 3080 at 320 Watts. This is definitely necessary to power the extra cores, so NVIDIA may have to optimize the clocks here a bit.
NVIDIA could undermine the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT, which is a $ 999 video card with the RTX 3080 Ti, although we have to see the difference that the Ti variant makes, as it will end up being sandwiched between the RTX 3080 and the RTX 3090 There are reports that the RTX 3080 Ti may end up faster than the RTX 3090 due to the higher clock speeds, while the RTX 3090 may remain a Titan-class product catering to the content creation market and enthusiastic about its highest VRAM buffer.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card specifications ‘rumored’
It is suggested that the GeForce RTX 3060 has the GA106-400 GPU, which should have 3840 FP32 cores in a total of 30 SM units. The graphics card will use the SKU PG190 by card partners that are compatible with pins GA104 and GA106. The video card has undergone a series of memory specification updates starting at 6 GB (14 Gbps) and now listed at 12 GB (16 Gbps).
It is rumored that the card will feature a huge 12 GB memory buffer, larger than that of the RTX 3060 Ti, RTX 3070 and even the RTX 3080. This has not yet been confirmed, but the reason may be that NVIDIA really wants to solve AMD in the mainstream segment. Again, we saw rumors of 20 GB and 16 GB for the RTX 3080 and RTX 3070 as well, which ended up not being true, as they were initial designs that were later canceled.
The card will have a 192-bit, 16-Gbps bus interface, offering bandwidth up to 384 GB / s. The GeForce RTX 3060 can cost $ 299, which will make it a formidable video card.
