According to foreign media tweaktown, moore's law is Dead, a recent hardware whistleblower, reiterated in a new video that the RTX 4090's full-card power consumption (TGP) will reach 600W. Compared with the RTX 3090, 250W is added, and compared with the 3090 Ti, it is also 150W more.
Moore's Law is Dead says he has reliable sources that Nvidia is doing a lot of weird things to avoid the 40 Series losing out to AMD and its next-generation RDNA 3 architecture. He also spoke with industry sources who said, "To be honest, we (mainly OEMs) don't think it's a huge challenge and now we know we need to support 600W, so we're going to do it." ”
In addition, Moore's Law is Dead also revealed that the Ada Lovelace core workstation graphics card, that is, the professional card, the flagship model will be called RTX L6000/L8000, compared to the much milder power consumption, only 375W.
Judging only by power consumption, the performance that RTX 4090 can finally achieve will be very impressive, 50% can be expected, and the peak game quality of 8K+ light chasing effects + 60FPS will lead players into a new era.
However, the 600W TGP also means that the RTX 4090 installation must be equipped with at least 1000W of power, even if the RTX 4090 itself does not increase in price, the player's installed cost (including upgrade costs) will also increase. According to the outside world, the RTX 4090 will be released at the end of the third quarter or the beginning of the fourth quarter at the earliest.
