Nvidia has taken the covers off its trio of Ampere-based high-end GeForce graphics cards And if you want the best the graphics giant has to offer, you'll want the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090

From all the rumors surrounding the GeForce RTX 3000 series, we knew that a very powerful GPU was in development Previously thought to be called the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti, the RTX 3090 was essentially the successor to the RTX Titian, a GPU so powerful that it was hardly designed for gamers But the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 is

To take advantage of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090, you need a very powerful PC with very deep pockets But with such a setup, you can expect PC gaming nirvana with high frame rates and crazy resolutions

Have you got so much cash in your pocket that it's burning a hole in your pocket? Then you can spend a fortune on the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 At $1,499 in the US and £1,399 in the UK, it's Nvidia's most expensive gaming-grade GPU to date

The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti started at $999, but the RTX 3090 offers significantly better performance It is also 50% faster than the RTX Titan GPU it essentially replaces

However, to get the most out of such a graphics card, you will need a PC with components that can support the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 That would be a costly proposition In other words, the GeForce RTX 3090 is a graphics card for those who are willing to spend a lot of money on a gaming machine

If you want the GeForce RTX 3090, mark September 24 on your calendar

It will be available right after the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080, which will be released on September 17, giving you a few more days to save up the money needed to buy what Nvidia calls a BFGPU (big ferocious GPU) That means they can build a huge gaming PC nearly two months earlier than the PS5 and Xbox Series X launches

If you thought the price of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 was ridiculous, don't worry

This GPU has 24GB of GDDR6X with a 384-bit memory interface and a memory speed of 195 Gbps; Nvidia has not officially revealed the memory bandwidth, but it would not be surprising if it pushes close to 1TB/s GeForce RTX 3090 also features 10,496 CUDA cores and runs at a boost clock of 1,700 MHz

And since the Ampere architecture promises higher performance and efficiency, it is not surprising that the GeForce RTX 3090 will destroy previous GeForce RTX 2000 series graphics cards and beat the RTX Titan

In the real world, this means being able to run games at 60 frames per second at 8K The RTX 3090, with its second-generation ray tracing core and third-generation Tensor core, also promises a significant improvement in ray tracing performance and second-generation deep learning supersampling (DLSS), which will enable games running at high resolutions to reduce the impact of tracing on performance

Thanks to the Ampere architecture, all new GeForce RTX graphics cards can deliver up to twice the ray-tracing performance of the Turing-based GeForce RTX 2000 series

Outside of gaming, the GeForce RTX 3090 is expected to be a boon for those creating videos or working with high-fidelity digital assets, effects, and rendering techniques

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 is nothing short of a monster graphics card It is quite monstrous in size and uses a three-slot, dual-axis flow-through design, effectively equipping the graphics card with its own silencer In other words, it is up to 30°C lower than the RTX TItan, up to 10 times quieter, and delivers all the promised performance Just don't expect to fit an RTX 3080 in a compact PC case

You'd probably have to be a serious PC gamer or game streamer to afford the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 at $1,499 But if you want the best GPU technology, Nvidia has you covered with the RTX 3090

Given its price and specs, it's hard to imagine the GeForce RTX 3090 having many rivals The so-called "Nvidia killer," AMD BIg Navi, was expected to take on the likes of the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti However, the RTX 3090 seems to have moved the goalposts so far that AMD will have a hard time competing at this super high-end level

With the GeForce RTX 3090, Nvidia has created a graphics card that gamers and digital content creators will aspire to While it will be out of reach for many, there are other graphics cards to choose from in the new GeForce lineup, and more will be available in 2021

For the time being, however, Nvidia seems to have the graphics card that will culminate a 21-year effort on graphics for the gaming world
