NVIDIA Ada Lovlace architecture of the RTX 40 series, AMD RDNA3 architecture of the RX 7000 series are not far away, who can win again, the situation is gradually clear.
According to the latest news from authoritative expert MLID, the performance of NVIDIA's next-generation graphics card can currently be improved by up to 60-80% compared to RTX 3090, which is already a very remarkable amplitude, but the problem is that it is still not as good as AMD's best level.
He also said that if NVIDIA put all its efforts into it, it might be able to achieve a 1-fold performance boost, but the power consumption is crazy (insane).
According to previous news, the RTX 4090 has been confirmed to consume up to 600W of the entire card, which is almost double compared to the RTX 3090 350W, for which it has to use the 16-pin auxiliary power supply interface in the ATX 3.0 power specification, with a maximum power supply capacity of 600W.
There are even voices that suspect that if the RTX 4090 Ti is made, the power consumption will reach a terrifying 800W or even higher, and even the RTX 4080 will have 450W, which is the level of the RTX 3090 Ti.
From the current situation, NVIDIA Ada will still adopt a single large core design, TSMC 5nm process, an area of about 600 square millimeters, is expected to integrate up to 18432 CUDA cores, 96MB cache, continue to match 384-bit GDDR6X video memory.
AMD RDNA3 will be the first time to use MCM dual-core package, TSMC 5nm, 6nm process hybrid manufacturing, the area is expected to reach about 800 square millimeters, up to 15360 stream processors, almost three times the current, video memory or 256-bit GDDR6, but there will be up to 512MB unlimited cache, power consumption is expected to be 450-480W.
It is said that the performance of amD RX 7900 XT can be about 3 times that of RX 6900 XT, which is almost impossible, even if the power consumption is achieved, it will be out of control, and it is very promising to see 2-2.5 times at present.
As a result, the RX 7900 XT outperforms the RTX 4090 without problems and consumes much lower power.
Of course, everything is still in the rumor stage, keep walking and seeing.
