NEW GEFORCE CARDS THIS SPRING
Nvidia’s mid-range cards finally ready
WE’VE BEEN WAITING for Nvidia’s to flesh out its 4000-series cards for a while, but details are starting to land. The first to arrive is the GeForce RTX 4070, which according to a leak is April 13 (this should be confirmed by the time you read this). It uses the same AD104 silicon as the 4070 Ti, but cut down to 5,888 CUDA cores running at up to 2.475GHz. It carries 12GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus offering a maximum data transfer of 504GB/s. All this will cost $599. The premium factory versions will be 225W cards, and use either the new 16-pin power connector, or two 8-pin ones. The standard cards will run at 200W, and stick to 8-pin connectors.
