It has been said many times that there were some tiers on Nvidia’s offering that have been labeled as not cost-effective for mere gamers and more aimed at studios, movie creators or professionals. Of course, some gamers are just stubborn (as are some OEMs partners).
The RTX GeForce 3090 WAS NO EXCEPTION announced in 2020 and with this in mind, today Nvidia announced the “Titan” or refreshed version with RTX GeForce 3090 Ti.
Technical specs for the 3090 Ti includes 24GB of GDDR6X running at 21GB/s. That’s the same amount of VRAM as the RTX 3090 but with a nearly 7.7 percent faster memory clock resulting in a total memory bandwidth of 1008GB/s, all within the same 8nm GA102 chip that it’s predecessor uses.
The RTX 3090 Ti will also include 40 teraflops of GPU performance, with a base clock of 1560MHz, and a boost clock of 1860MHz. That’s a bump over the 36 teraflops on the RTX 3090, the base 1395MHz clock, and 1695MHz boost clock speeds. The RTX 3090 TI also includes 10,752 CUDA cores, 78 RT-TFLOPs, and 320 Tensor-TFLOPs.
In terms of gaming performance, Nvidia claims the RTX 3090 Ti will be on average 64% faster than the RTX 2080 Ti, and 9% faster than the RTX 3090, which might not sound a big difference considering a $1,999 price tag.
Hence the traditional reminder that this GPU is aimed at professionals, designers, TV and Movie Studios.
