Everything is on the line, as both AMD and Nvidia continue to compete for supremacy in the world of graphics cards, and Intel still has a lot to do. As the next generation of GPUs approaches, the two great powers have been preparing their next offers.
The first speculations believe that the flagship of amdthe Navi31, could be four times more powerful than the RX 6900 XT, and the green team may be aiming for a similar increase in teraflop delivery.
That, according to a rumor from well-known leaker kopite7kimi. In a recent tweet, it is suggested that Nvidia could offer a graphics card that has up to 100 teraflops of “raw computing power.” Considering that the AMD equivalent could offer 92 TFLOPS, it seems clear that the two tech giants are still at odds as this GPU era sees its final months.
The report goes on to say that this could refer to the yet to be announced RTX 4090, which would represent the star product of the green team in the Ada Lovelace range that is yet to come. For comparison, the somewhat disappointing Nvidia RTX 3090 Ti It has 40 TFLOPS, which would mean that this new GPU, if the rumors are to be believed, would be 2.5 times more powerful in terms of computing performance. It has to be said that, much like AMD’s recent speculation, this doesn’t mean that the entire graphics card would be 2.5x more powerful than the 3090 Ti in all respects, just in teraflops.
It has also been suggested that Nvidia could throw one RTX 4090Ti 900 W at some point. Since the 3090 Ti, which is the most powerful graphics card on the market today, has a TDP of 450W, that would make this piece of hardware run twice as hot. Again, this hasn’t been confirmed, but it stands to reason that as GPUs get more powerful in terms of performance, they’ll need more power to run.
