Nvidia Launches the Super GeForce RTX GPUs; Better Performance at Same Price
Nvidia, the American technology company, is all set to launch the ‘super’ version of its gaming-focused graphics cards, GeForce RTX 2060, 2070, and 2080. The company will be bringing the RTX 2060 Super, 2070 Super, and 2080 Super, today, as an addition to its RTX graphic lineup, which according to Nvidia, are faster and better at the performance.
The much-awaited set of graphics cards from Nvidia have already been the topic of discussion, and the rumours have already been making the rounds about the features of these new desktop cards.
The reports suggest that the GeForce RTX 2060 Super and the GeForce RTX 2070 Super will render 15 per cent faster performance than their counterpart, whereas the GeForce RTX 2080 Super is a high-end graphics card version, which will exhibit 20 to 25 per cent faster performance than RTX 2080 (non-super version). The GeForce RTX 2070 is now supporting additional CUDA cores, i.e., a total of 2560, at the higher base and boost clocks (1605MHz and 1770MHz, respectively). On the other hand, RTX 2060 Super at the higher base and boost clock, i.e. 1470MHz and 1650MHz, respectively, is supporting a total of 2176 CUDA cores. The high-end RTX 2080 Super will be coming with an additional 128 CUDA cores.
The three graphics cards have also been revamped, in the terms of memory, with a wider 256-bit GDDR6 memory interface and an additional 2GB of GDDR6 memory making it a total of 8GB memory.
“Dubbed the ‘graphics holy grail,’ real-time ray tracing brings cinematic quality lighting effects to interactive experiences for the first-time. The world’s most advanced GPU architecture, Turing fuses next-generation shaders with real-time ray tracing and all-new AI capabilities. Turing’s hybrid graphics capability represents the biggest generational leap ever in gaming GPUs, delivering up to 6x more performance than previous 10 Series Pascal GPUs”, the global head of marketing for the GeForce business at Nvidia, Matt Wuebbling, stated in a blog post.
The company has revealed that it will be shipping the GeForce RTX 2060 Super and the GeForce RTX 2070 Super starting from July 9, whereas the RTX 2080 will be dropped by the end of this month. The prices of all the three cards have been kept similar to their current versions. That means, the RTX 2060 Super will be available for $399, the price of the RTX 2060 is $499, and the RTX 2080 will be sold for $699.
