During today's livestream, Nvidia revealed the Geforce RTX 3080, RTX 3070, and RTX 3090. The RTX 3080 will become the new flagship CPU at $699, while the 3070 will retail for $499. As for the 3090, it will be⭕ prohibitively expensive for most people – at $1499 – but is the world's first official 8K gaming GPU.
The three GPUs will be coming out in stages ꦉover the next couple of months, each one more expensive than the last.
- GeForce RTX 3070: $499 (October)
- GeForce RTX 3080: $699 (September 17)
- GeForce RTX 3090: $1499 (September 24)
Featuring twice the perfꦛormance of the 2080, the 3080 boasts 30 Shader TFLOPS, 58-RT TFLOPS, and 238 Tensor-TFLOPS. Nvidia states that this is the greatest generational leap in the company's history, and it somehow managed to keep the price down relative to the 2080 Ti. We're curious to see how it stacks up with the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X when they release later this year. As for the 3080, it'll be available in just a few short weeks on September 17.
The 3090 releases on September 24, and here's what we 𒉰already know about the powerful new product. Even if you 🐷aren't a tech wizard, you can tell this thing is a beast just from it's $1499 price tag and is sure to blow away everything else on the market.
- RTX On with DLSS 8K
- 8K HDR ShadowPlay
- AV1 Decode
- HDMI 2.1
The 3070 will probably be the device of choice for frugal customers, bu🃏t still manages to pack a punch and compete with much more expensive GPUs. Here's what your $499 will get you when it releases in October:
- 20 Shader-TFLOPS
- 40 RT-TFLOPS
- 163 Tensor-TFLOPS
- 8GB G6
From what we saw during the livestream, the new GPUs seem to live up to the Nvidia's claim of achieving the "greatest generational leap" in GPU technology. With next-gen systems coming out in a few months and this powerful GPUs hitting the market over the next♕ few weeks, we're excited to see what the future of gaming has in store.
