NVIDIA RTX 30 SUPER Series Specifications Rumored
The NVIDIA RTX 30 SUPER series is expected to be announced by the company early next year in January at CES 2022. We have now received a list of rumored specifications for the upcoming family from kopite7kimi who correctly revealed the RTX 30 series. The list includes four desktop cards with the RTX 3060 SUPER, 3070 SUPER, 3080 SUPER, and 3090 SUPER. The RTX 3060 SUPER is listed as featuring 5632 CUDA cores paired with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory which is a considerable increase from the 4864 CUDA cores and 8 GB of memory found on the RTX 3060 Ti.
The RTX 3070 SUPER appears to feature less of an upgrade with the core count remaining at 5888 and the memory capacity at 8 GB however this will be upgraded from GDDR6 to GDDR6X. The RTX 3080 SUPER will receive 8960 CUDA and 12 GB of GDDR6X memory compared to the 8704 cores and 10 GB memory on the RTX 3080. The new flagship consumer card will be the RTX 3090 SUPER with an extra 256 CUDA cores for a total of 10752 and 24 GB of GDDR6X memory. These specifications are only rumors with the leaker stating that they doubt some of them so we will have to wait for further leaks until we can know with certainty.

But why?
I mean the 3070 Ti was already not too great above the 3070, and now there's the 3070 SUPER shoved between them.
3060 SUPER - $999.99
3060 Ti SUPER - $1499.99
3070 SUPER - $1799.99
3070 Ti SUPER - $2799.99
3080 SUPER - $3999.99
3080 Ti SUPER - $7999.99
3090 SUPER - $14999.99
Oh, and every 3090 would be bundled with a personalized letter from Jen thanking you via form letter and pre-printed signature for helping him buy his twenty-fifth super-yacht.
Same day, I'm sure they'll introduce the brand new 3050 ($499.99) and the 3050 Ti (649.99), too. These'll bring "next-gen" 1080p gaming to the masses, you see.
I only need an in-stock card.
But you're probably right, they will announce it for ~200-250, but shops will sell for 500 of course, and not directly form Nvidia so they could sell for double the money. And be it at near MSRP.
The 3060 12gb wouldn't be that bad a card for me if I could buy it at near MSRP price.
I don't need an in-stock card with double or triple the price. PC gaming is slowly becoming a hobby for the rich. Wait, it already is right now... my bad..
:D
B2T: In a non-crypto market, it would make sense to release a refresh on a slightly improved node with some incorporated developments, fixes, added VRAM and Cores, since AMD pushed back RDNA 3 and ZEN 4 to Q4 2022 / Q1 2023. Also, they have something current on the market for the release of Intel's ARC line up in Q1 2022.
But it most likely is just there to officially sunset the base model's and introduce a new, higher MSRP to cash in more on the mining/scalper craze, further cementing the current prize structure as the new normal.
PC Gaming is still not overly expensive, you just need to have a GPU. You don't need a fast one. The PC library is so rich you can go back anywhere in time and find something similar, something better, or something different. You can mod content to any degree you like. There is endless amounts of free stuff to play. Even an IGP is powerful enough to run legacy stuff extremely well.
A bit of creativity gets you places and the PC was always for a wide range of income groups and kinds of players. It is just diversifying, but the top end will never make strides without letting everyone else tag along - after all, developers will need a market to make money. And in this way, the PC platform will always remain afloat. Too many things too big to fail are invested here, and the market for gaming is bigger than ever - also on the PC, there is more revenue + potential than there's ever been.
Heck, if push comes to shove you'll just create your own content for it, right? This is also why its so important to own content rather than get it on-demand through services.
Thankfully the XC 3060 has been jumping along and I was able to get one a short while after that model launched, I got myself on the list as soon as it went live for non-elite EVGA members.
Then I kept at it for the newegg shuffle and got EVGA XC 3060Ti as well. Since then I haven't been obsessing over the EVGA queue and it's been a breath of fresh air.
I feel it's a shitty move on Nvidia to introduce yet another set of new GPU skus. This only means that fab process will be stretched out across even more chips for all these different skus....it just, overall, sounds like a another big letdown for those that are still waiting to get something.
As crummy as the newegg shuffles can be, I'd suggest you keep trying at them like I did. Only put your email in on the GPUs that aren't paired with other crap. I still check the shuffles out and I see single GPUs still being offered. You just have to be comfortable with the price they're listed at. I see the MSI/ASUS 3060 cards going for $500+ there, but EVGA will be around $400....same with all other cards from EVGA that show up on the shuffle, they tend to be around $100 less than the other AIBs.
Yesterday there were okay priced GPUs on the shuffle that weren't paired up. A 3060 that was around $500. A 3060Ti that was around $600 and a 3070 that was around $750 or maybe it was $800. Those would be good ones to sign up for if they're what you're after and in a price range you like. Today's shuffle there are few non-paired GPUs, but they're all over a grand. Out of my price range, but maybe good for others.
It's the best, better than anything.
Ill never upgrade again.
Sarcasm meter at max
Sh#ts ridiculous!
Huang is smoking crack if these are true.
