Nvidia Unveils New ‘SUPER’ Graphics Cards: A Boost to Your Gaming Experience
Hey there, fellow gamers! Exciting news on the horizon – hardware company Nvidia has just dropped a bombshell at this year’s CES technology convention in Las Vegas. Brace yourselves for the unveiling of their latest PC graphics cards, and let me tell you, they are SUPER impressive!
The SUPER Trio: Meet the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, 4070 Ti SUPER, and 4070 SUPER
Nvidia has unleashed three powerful gaming beasts into the wild – the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, the 4070 Ti SUPER, and the 4070 SUPER. These cards are set to take your gaming experience to a whole new level.
If you’re wondering how these new additions fit into the existing range, let me break it down for you:
- The top dog in the pack is the mighty $1599 RTX 4090.
- The RTX 4080 SUPER comes in hot at $999 – a $200 drop from its predecessor, the original 4080, which is being discontinued.
- Next up, we have the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, designed for 1440p gaming but with a little 4K upside. It’s priced at $799, and the existing 4070 is being phased out.
- The RTX 4070 SUPER, targeting 1440p, hits the shelves at $599.
- The vanilla RTX 4070 sticks around but receives a $50 price cut, now priced at $549.
- For those on a budget, fear not! The entry-level RTX options remain unchanged, with the $299 RTX 4060 and the $399 RTX 4060 Ti still available.
Now, let’s address the elephant in the room. The original 40 series cards faced some criticism for their value, with the price hike not always matching the jump in performance. But fear not, my friends! Nvidia has taken note of the feedback and is determined to rectify the situation with these SUPER cards. They aim to deliver improved performance without breaking the bank – and in one case, even offer a price cut!
Upgrade Gold Standard: A Step Up from the 20 and 30 Series
Nvidia wants to make it clear that these new cards aren’t just a minor upgrade for those who already own a 40 series RTX GPU. No, no, my dear gamers – these bad boys are the new gold standard for anyone looking to upgrade from the 20 or 30 series cards, which made their debuts in 2020 and 2018, respectively.
And don’t just take Nvidia’s word for it. The company has provided in-house comparisons that speak volumes. Let’s take a look:
- A 4080 SUPER vs. a 3080 Ti? Get ready for a significant leap: triple the Tensor Cores, significantly more memory, and less power draw. Talk about power-packed!
- The 4070 Ti SUPER vs. the 3070 Ti? Prepare for some serious gaming goodness.
- And the 4070 SUPER vs. the vanilla 3070? Brace yourself for an upgrade that will blow your mind.
But what do these improvements mean in-game? Well, my friends, the results are mind-blowing. Let me share Nvidia’s own metrics with you.
With the revolutionary Frame Generation technology, games like Alan Wake 2 can now reach frame rates that were once unimaginable. On the 4070 Ti SUPER, Nvidia boasts an FPS count of over 80 – a massive improvement compared to the RTX 3070 Ti. And when it comes to Cyberpunk 2077, brace yourself for an FPS jump from the 40s to the glorious 90s range. Now that’s what I call a gaming paradise!
Even without the Frame Generation technology, the leap in performance is still jaw-dropping. The Last of Us Part 1, for example, goes from around 75fps to a smooth 100fps on the 4070 Ti. Now that’s a game-changer!
Now, before you rush to pre-order these bad boys, keep in mind that these numbers come directly from Nvidia. It’s always a good idea to wait for media reviews to get a more comprehensive and unbiased assessment. However, if these improvements are indeed as promised – all at the same price and with lower power consumption – Nvidia will have redeemed themselves in the eyes of gamers who felt let down by previous 40 series GPUs.
Availability and Pre-Orders
The wait won’t be long, my friends. The new cards will be hitting the market over the next month, starting with the 4070 SUPER on January 17, followed by the 4070 Ti SUPER on January 24, and finally, the 4080 SUPER on January 31. But for those of you who can’t wait to get your hands on these babies, pre-orders will be available very soon.
So, fellow gamers, prepare yourselves for an epic upgrade to your gaming experience. With Nvidia’s SUPER graphics cards, you’ll be conquering virtual worlds like never before. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to level up – it’s time to unleash your gaming potential!
