Avast ye, me hearties! Behold, that mighty graphics card be claimin' to be takin' up most o' the treasure in them RTX Super refreshes bein' churned out from the production lines! Arrr, a sight to behold, it be!
Nvidia is set to launch three new RTX Super GPU refreshes in January 2024, according to a YouTube leaker. The rumored release dates are as follows: the RTX 4070 Super on January 17, the RTX 4070 Ti Super on January 24, and the RTX 4080 Super on January 31. These graphics cards are expected to be unveiled at CES 2024 on January 8. The leaker also mentioned that the RTX 4070 Super will be produced in greater volume compared to the other models.The main reason why Nvidia might prioritize the RTX 4070 Super is that it is the easiest refresh to implement. It can potentially be made using the same board as the existing RTX 4070 Ti, requiring minimal changes. Additionally, the RTX 4070 Super is the most affordable among the new GPUs, making it likely to sell the most. Nvidia aims to make itself more competitive in the mid-to-high-end market with these refreshes, particularly with the RTX 4070 Super and RTX 4080 Super. AMD's 7800 XT has been performing well in this segment, and Nvidia wants to challenge its popularity.
There is speculation that the RTX 4070 Super may be priced as low as $599, making it an attractive option for mid-range buyers. This could potentially put AMD's 7800 XT in a difficult position unless Team Red lowers the pricing of their card. These new GPU refreshes may lead to changes in the rankings of the best graphics cards at the beginning of next year.
