Nvidia RTX 4080 Super Could Replace RTX 4080 : Read more

If it's replacing an existing Nvidia GPU, then I expect 5% more performance at 7% more power for 15% more money.

They can call it whatever they want. No amount of Ti or Super refresh will get me excited if the cost per frame doesn't go down. If it's a terrible value I am out.

Who cares? The 7900XT 20GB costs $700 and is just as good as the 4080. Why would anyone pay $500 more for the same? Even $200 more doesn't make sense. It's literally paying more for the same!

The only GPU they need to make in 4000 line up is a proper 4060 w/o the gimped memory bus.

The 4070 TI Super makes sense (bad name aside).

Nvidia can make it faster than the 7900XT, give it 16 GB, and charge $800.

This fixes the VRAM issue of the 4070 TI and steals the higher end bang for your buck crown from AMD without changing their product pricing much. (4080 Super takes $1200 price point and the 4080 drops to $1000 and the 4070 TI to $700).

Value improves enough to keep sales coming for another year before the RTX 5000s.

Yeah, that is likely what they'll do and I won't be interested it those prices at all.

Having deja vu here.
They've been using 'Ti' for ages now. Just call it that.
Having both 'Super' and 'Ti' exist at the same time is some marketing bull that'll intentionally confuse folks.
-GTX 1660/Super/Ti.
-RTX 2080/Super/Ti... and the Ti was on a different die! Meanwhile, 2060 and 2070 only got Super variants, and 2050 got nothing else.
-Geforce 30 series had Ti variants, but no Supers.
Now Super is coming back? /sigh

^This is the exact scenario I've been hoping (but not holding my breath) for, as I've been patiently saving up for a new video card. Use the AD103, have 16GB on a 256-bit bus, just a few more SMs, and keep the same $800 price. If it happens, I would absolutely buy the 4070 Ti Super.

The 7900XT 20GB costs $700

Pcpartpicker and Newegg say $800

Why would anyone pay $500 more

4080 is $1100 so $300 more

It's literally paying more for the same!

You wanna use the 7900XT and the word "literally" . . . ok lets looks at GNs 7900XT vs 4080 results

View: https://youtu.be/e7DjJR3zpCw


4K raster average - 4080 17.5% faster
4K RT average - 4080 31% faster

It's literally paying more for better performance and significantly better RT performance also at the same power draw.

Rumours... wake me up when its confirmed and I can watch a video review. The Super rumour been going around for months. now

Is it a TI - https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-4080-ti.c3887

Or a super? - https://www.techpowerup.com/314998/...0-super-to-feature-20gb-memory-based-on-ad102

when same website has both, it sure is confusing

 

[-Fran-]

Oh, look! A Company making bad naming decisions has to resort to coming up with stupid names... Doesn't this remind you all of the saying "play stupid games, win stupid prizes"? It definitely does to me!

I had a couple of "super dumb move" puns, but I'll spare you the pain.

Regards.

Correct me if i'm wrong but I thought the:

7900 XT is an upgraded over the 6950 XT

7900 XTX compares to a 4080

I would be very tempted by it myself. I have a 3080 so I don't need to upgrade but since I have it hooked up to my living room's 4K TV and I prefer to run at native resolution, it is borderline for that task. However, I couldn't bring myself to pay $800 knowing the 4070 TI's VRAM wouldn't last long (and $1200 for GPU is silly). If this happens, I might still hold out for the 5000 series, but I might cave and buy it.
