 NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 4090 GRAPHICS CARD REVIEW NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 4090 GRAPHICS CARD DETAILED REVIEW NVIDIA RTX 40-series graphics cards are finally here. Powered by NVIDIA Ada  architecture, successor to their Ampere architecture, boasts of much higher  performance across the board. Be it ray-tracing, raster graphics or AI, the new  NVIDIA RTX 40 cards are poised to completely shatter all benchmarks. Whether  they do that, is something we’ll see.  SPECIFICATIONS NVIDIA is kicking off the launch with the high-end GPUs first and the RTX 4090 is  leading the pack with a massive GPU at the heart of the graphics card. The AD102  GPU is 608mm2 in size which is a little smaller than the GA102 Ampere GPU that  powered the RTX 3090 Ti. Shifting from Samsung 8nm to the much more efficient  TSMC N5 node has certainly helped reduce the size while squeezing in a lot more  transistors. The 628mm2 GA102 has 28.3 billion transistors whereas the AD1...

Radeon RX 7900 XTX vs. GeForce RTX 4080

 Radeon RX 7900 XTX vs. GeForce RTX 4080 It's time for a new mega benchmark comparing the Radeon RX  7900 XTX  head to head with the GeForce  RTX 4080  in a myriad of games. In total we have tested 54 titles, though some of those were tested using multiple configurations (DX11 vs DX12, ray tracing, and so forth) making up 62 game tests. For testing we've got our hands on the massive Gigabyte Aorus RTX 4080 Master -- we believe this is the largest graphics card on the market right now. Currently retailing for at least $1,350, that's over 12% above MSRP or about a $150 premium, but given the size and weight it kind of feels like you're at least getting that difference in the cooler. For comparison we have the Gigabyte Aorus 7900 XTX Elite which isn't a "Master" version as it's unavailable on the Radeon side, but even so the Aorus Elite is still a beast and we're sure many would argue this is also a more practical graphics card in terms of dimensions ...
