We have not visible any Super playing cards because the RTX 2000 Series. However, there have been lots of stories that Nvidia had taken into consideration using the name for some RTX 3000 cards before opting for the Ti brand. There's even an alleged image of an RTX 3090 Super.

Now, another prolific leaker, MEGAsizeGPU, has posted a similar prediction, this one with some specs covered. He says there will be new cards, both versions of the RTX 4070: one with the equal specifications but the use of GDDR6 reminiscence in place of GDDR6X (and is possibly inexpensive), and an RTX 4070 Super.

There might be two new playing cards within the destiny:
4070 D6: The same spec as 4070 however shrinks to GDDR6
4070 exquisite: primarily based on AD103, has a 256bit bandwidth and 16G Vram

MEGAsizeGPU delivered that the RTX 4070 Super can be primarily based on the AD103 GPU and provide a 256-bit bus interface at the side of 16GB of VRAM. Both the contemporary RTX 4070 and the RTX 4070 Ti are based totally at the AD104 chip, have 12GB of reminiscence, and a 192-bit bus width.

MEGAsizeGPU admits that his fellow leaker's declare of an RTX 4070 Ti Super sounds dubious, however it's far Nvidia we are speaking about right here, so that you can never be 100% sure. He formerly claimed that an RTX 4080 Super or Ti changed into inside the works, too.

A lot of humans have been upset by way of the RTX 4070 Ti's 12GB of memory, so a 16GB Super version would likely be plenty more appealing to new customers. But one has to marvel where its introduction and potential rate would depart the modern RTX 4070 Ti.

It need to be heavily emphasised that these are all rumors and none of the named cards may additionally really launch. However, Nvidia has launched numerous variations of the same card earlier than, which includes the RTX 2060, which came with different specifications and a Super model, and the RTX 3080 (preferred, 12GB, and Ti), so none of the claims are past the realms of opportunity.

Nvidia is predicted to release the RTX 5000 series of playing cards in 2025, so there's nevertheless a protracted wait. The corporation is creating a fortune from its datacenter/AI chips, but it'd need to squeeze a chunk extra cash from gamers before the subsequent-gen products arrive.
