Just earlier than E3, Nvidia teased that one thing ‘Super‘ was coming within the type of a cryptic YouTube teaser, however now due to some very leaky pipes over at Amazon.com, we now know precisely what that really means. Say hi there to the Nvidia RTX Super graphics cards.
Right now, Amazon solely appear to be itemizing EVGA’s RTX Super playing cards versus different third occasion producers (you may inform they’re correct Nvidia RTX Super playing cards versus simply having ‘Super’ of their mannequin title due to the little Super emblem on their respective bins, click on to enlarge the pics beneath), however there are nonetheless a number of attention-grabbing issues to notice nonetheless.
The RTX 2060 Super graphics card, for example, may have 8GB of GDDR6 reminiscence, giving it one other 2GB over the common RTX 2060. It additionally appears like it is going to have a better enhance clock velocity as nicely, as EVGA’s GeForce RTX 2060 Super XC Ultra Gaming is at present listed at 1695MHz, which is ever so barely increased than the non-Super RTX 2060’s reference enhance velocity of 1680MHz.
No different technical particulars are talked about on Amazon’s product web page at time of writing, however the different huge takeaway right here is the truth that EVGA’s RTX 2060 Super is about to value a whopping $499, which is one other $150 greater than Nvidia’s RTX 2060 Founders Edition. It’s extremely doable that that is only a placeholder value, in fact, however that’s nonetheless a good bit steeper than common RTX 2060 costs which can be at present hovering across the $350 mark.
As for the RTX 2070 Super card, EVGA’s GeForce RTX 2070 Super XC Gaming will even have 8GB of GDDR6 reminiscence like its RTX 2060 Super cousin, and can have the ability to hit a lift clock velocity of 1800MHz. Once once more, that’s fairly a bit quicker than each Nvidia’s common reference spec for the RTX 2070 (1620MHz) and their very own Founders Edition enhance spec (1710MHz). It is, nevertheless, set to value a fair pricier $599, which is a heck of much more costly than the $450-odd {dollars} you may at present pay for a non Super RTX 2070.
Finally, there’s a second RTX 2070 Super variant from EVGA within the type of the GeForce RTX 2070 Super XC Ultra Gaming. Once once more, this can have 8GB of GDDR6 reminiscence, a lift clock velocity of 1800MHz, and a value of $599.
As I discussed above, it’s completely doable these costs aren’t closing but, as they do appear relatively steep in comparison with their non Super siblings. To be sincere, I’d be shocked in the event that they did find yourself being this costly, except in fact Nvidia’s planning to exchange their present RTX 2070 and RTX 2080 playing cards with these new Super variants. Still, with an obvious launch date of July ninth, which is a bit over every week away (and simply two days after the launch of the brand new AMD Navi playing cards!), not less than we received’t have to attend too lengthy to search out out. Watch this area.
Update: and in a transfer that’s virtually like this was all completely timed, Nvidia have simply tweeted one other RTX Super teaser, saying ‘the wait is almost over’:
