With less than three days remaining until Nvidia officially unveil its next generation GeForce RTX 30 Series graphics cards, more and more information is gradually leaking out about how the hardware will look and perform. The latest leak reveals detailed specifications and images of Taiwanese hardware company Gainward’s “Phoenix – Golden Sample” editions of the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080.
The leak comes from hardware site Videocardz.com, who appear to have received the information from a source at Gainward. It shows specification sheets for the factory overclocked GeForce RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 cards, revealing that the flagship 3090 will feature 5248 CUDA cores, a huge 24 GB of next generation GDDR6X memory, and an equally huge 350W total graphics power. While the high-end 3080 will feature 4352 CUDA cores, 10 GB of next generation GDDR6X memory, and 320W of total graphics power.
As with Nvidia’s Founders Edition cards, the 3090 will also feature slightly faster memory, with a bandwidth of 19.5 GB per second versus 19 GB on the 3080. Interestingly the boost clock of the 3080 is slightly higher at 1740 MHz, versus 1725 MHz on the 3090. The leak also reveals that Gainward’s cards will have a black and silver design, including some blue and green LED lighting. Its cards do not feature the underside fan shown on Nvidia’s Founders Edition cards, but has a triple-fan design that blows air through an exposed heat sink.
The Gainward cards utilize two 8-pin power connectors rather than the expected three 8-pin connectors, or the 12-pin connector seen on the Founders Edition 3090 card. They also have a 2.7 slot depth, smaller than the huge 3 slot design seen on leaked photos of Nvidia’s Founders Edition RTX 3090, although the difference is only slight, a 2.7 slot depth is a more common design, so may help those with tighter cases fit one of the new cards.
Either way, with performance benchmarks suggesting that the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 will be up to 50% faster than their current generation equivalents, most gamers will likely see new cables and adapters as a minor inconvenience on the way to much-improved frame rates and graphics quality.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 are expected to launch in mid September.
