NVIDIA has recently introduced its GeForce RTX 20-series SUPER mobile graphics cards, with the heap of new features that are present on the new GPU models. According to a report from ComputerBase, NVIDIA has refreshed few of the RTX 20-series mobile GPUs in addition to the previously announced SUPER models. Now there are a few models/variants of these RTX 20-series GPUs. Firstly, there is a standard RTX mobile GPU variant called the "Max-P" version - this represents the RTX 20-series GPUs that were launched initially in January of 2019 and it includes three SKUs like RTX 2060, 2070 and 2080. Secondly, there is a "Max-Q" revision of these graphics cards, meant to bring maximum efficiency. These SKUs are power-limited, so they are a bit slower compared to the regular "Max-P" version, and they have a Total Graphics Power (TGP) between 65 W and 90 W depending on the model.
Next up we have GeForce RTX SUPER 20-series of GPUs that were launched on April 2nd just a few days ago. These GPUs are special because they bring a heap of new features like more CUDA cores, low-power (1.25 V compared to the old 1.35 V) GDDR6 memory, DynamicBoost, and Optimus support. So what are these new, refresh GPUs? On ComputerBase Forums, XMG (laptop maker) representative has revealed that NVIDIA refreshed some of the older RTX 20-series mobile GPU that were already in use.
Namely, the regular GeForce RTX 2060 and RTX 2070 GPUs got the hardware treatment that is the same as the newly announced SUPER lineup. NVIDIA has added a low-power GDDR6 memory to these GPUs and a new regulator. Being that memory uses 20% of TGP alone, the updated GPU SKUs are set to perform higher compared to older variants. Keeping the same CUDA count, the RTX 2060 variant got improved TGP of 115 W, up from 90 W, which should result in significantly bigger boost clocks. This GPU carries an SKU revision number of N18E-G1-B. The refreshed RTX 2070 model is referred to as N18E-G1R GPU, which has the original TGP of 115 W. However, thanks to the lower power VRAM that leaves more space for boost clocks, and this GPU should boost up to 1485 MHz, representing a 45 MHz increase.
