What look like some official renders of the GeForce RTX 4070 (non-Ti) from MSI have leaked out. Particularly, VideoCardz has unearthed and uncovered photos of GPUs which might be labeled because the MSI RTX 4070 Gaming X Trio and the Ventus 3X OC. The clear cut-out photos reveal numerous angles of those upcoming triple fan desktop graphics playing cards, in addition to their packaging.
These aware of latest desktop graphics playing cards from MSI will know that the Gaming X line presents a extra premium cooling design than the Ventus line. Nonetheless, a shocking additional degree of differentiation is revealed by the product pictures (if real); the Gaming X Trio mannequin we see has one of many notorious 16-pin energy connectors, whereas the Ventus 3X OC mannequin has an older fashion 8-pin Molex connector for supplementary energy.
An analogous energy connector coverage was noticed in a latest Gigabyte RTX 4070 leak. This distinction ties in with a rumor suggesting that extra premium SKUs might be set to 225W whereas the cheaper fashions (extra prone to match the MSRP of $599) will run inside 200W. Because the decrease tier Nvidia Ada Lovelace playing cards get launched, just like the RTX 4060/Ti, and so forth., we could thus see 16-pin energy connectors even much less usually – if in any respect.
An earlier EEC submitting recommended MSI’s RTX 4070 lineup would come with the next fashions, and there look like two twin-fan SKUs inside the pack, in addition to the 2 fashions pictured for the primary time earlier as we speak:
- GeForce RTX 4070 VENTUS 3X 12G
- GeForce RTX 4070 VENTUS 2X 12G OC
- GeForce RTX 4070 VENTUS 3X 12G OC
- GeForce RTX 4070 VENTUS 2X 12G
- GeForce RTX 4070 GAMING X TRIO 12G
- GeForce RTX 4070 GAMING TRIO 12G
- GeForce RTX 4070 SUPRIM X 12G
- GeForce RTX 4070 SUPRIM 12G
As a reminder of what to anticipate with the upcoming Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 launch, please take a look at the desk beneath.
Row 0 – Cell 0 | GPU | FP32 CUDA Cores | Reminiscence Configuration | TBP | MSRP |
GeForce RTX 4090 Ti | AD102 | 18176 (?) | 24GB 384-bit 24 GT/s GDDR6X (?) | 600W (?) | $???? |
GeForce RTX 4090 | AD102 | 16384 | 24GB 384-bit 21 GT/s GDDR6X | 450W | $1,599 |
GeForce RTX 4080 | AD103 | 9728 | 16GB 256-bit 22.4 GT/s GDDR6X | 320W | $1,199 |
GeForce RTX 4070 Ti | AD104 | 7680 | 12GB 192-bit 21 GT/s GDDR6X | 285W | $799 |
GeForce RTX 4070 * | AD104 | 5888 (?) | 12GB 192-bit 21 GT/s GDDR6X | 200W to 225W (?) | $599 (?) |
GeForce RTX 4060 Ti * | AD106 | 4352 (?) | 8GB 128-bit 18 GT/s GDDR6 | 160W (?) | $??? |
GeForce RTX 3070 | GA104 | 5888 | 8GB 256-bit 14 GT/s GDDR6 | 220W | $499 |
Importantly, the GeForce RTX 4070 is predicted to share the identical 12GB reminiscence subsystem as its Ti brother. Thus, it may conceivably be a part of the ranks of the greatest graphics playing cards. Within the RTX 40 era, all of the desktop graphics playing cards beneath this mannequin will probably have 8GB of VRAM or much less, in addition to a 128-bit reminiscence bus or worse. It is going to be a big step backward for the GeForce vary as each RTX 2060 and RTX 3060 graphics playing cards have been supplied with 12GB of VRAM, and the times of 8GB VRAM being plentiful for the latest video games releases are behind us.
Nvidia and companions ought to formally launch their RTX 4070 desktop graphics playing cards subsequent Thursday, April 13. Funds fashions ought to be not more than the $599 MSRP, and we hope there are not any provide points that play into the arms of scalpers.
