A quartet of Gigabyte-branded GeForce GTX graphics playing cards has appeared on the Eurasian Financial Fee (EEC) on-line regulatory database. Nonetheless, bitter expertise has taught us that an EEC itemizing would not all the time precipitate a delivery product. Even so, it might be essentially the most stable proof relating to Nvidia’s covert preparation of this low-end GTX 16 sequence product.
Above, you possibly can see a screenshot of the EEC entry with 4 unannounced graphics playing cards: the GV-N1630OC-4GD, GV-N1630OC-4GL, GV-N1630D6-4GD, GV-N1630D6-4GL.
These conversant in Gigabyte nomenclature will take a look at these codenames and decide that all of them relate to Nvidia GeForce GTX 1630 graphics playing cards. Furthermore, all fashions include 4GB of VRAM. As well as, the OC fashions shall be overclocked in comparison with reference playing cards, the GL fashions shall be low-profile options, and the D6 fashions will come packing DDR6 reminiscence (as a substitute of DDR5). Lastly, the codenames level to those all being dual-fan cooled fashions, even the low-profile ones. If you happen to try the official Gigabyte product pages for the closest neighbor GTX 1650 (with 19 fashions), it’s best to get a good suggestion of the upcoming common and low-profile GTX 1630 designs.
We now have beforehand seen a number of rumors concerning the GeForce GTX 1630, and so they have been fairly effectively fleshed out. Clearly, the brand new entry-level card sits someplace beneath the present GTX 1650. Its function is to interchange the getting older GTX 1050 Ti. Curiously it would even be timed to battle with the brand new Intel Arc A380 desktop graphics card, which began its worldwide rollout in China earlier this week. Nonetheless, we do not know the timing of this battle as Nvidia hasn’t talked about the GTX 1630, and the tempo of Intel’s Arc GPU rollout worldwide is not identified.

Within the chart above, you possibly can see how the GTX 1630 has allegedly been minimize from the material of the Turing TU117 GPU, similar to the GTX 1650 (and GTX 1650 Ti, and quite a few cellular GPUs). The AMD Radeon RX 6400 supplies some cross-architecture reference.
It appears like this entry-level sector of the discrete GPU market is the place all of the motion has been lately (e.g., RX 6400 and Arc A380). Nonetheless, making low-end GPUs and promoting into the period which will change into often called the ‘second nice crypto crash’ dangers the arrival of a flood of better-performing older-gen GPUs at fascinating costs.
