MSI has announced its full NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 SUPER Series lineup for the new GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER, RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, and RTX 4080 SUPER announced at CES 2024. In addition to the new SUPRIM, GAMING X TRIO, GAMING X SLIM, and VENTUS cards, the company is introducing a brand-new design called EXPERT.

MSI's new GeForce RTX 40 SUPER Series EXPERT card(s) feature a "push-pull airflow design for enhanced cooling" reminiscent of NVIDIA's Founders Edition design - with one fan on each side of the GPU. Throw in Aluminum Die-Casting to give it a metallic look, Vapor Chamber cooling, and a new 'patented fan design.' It looks stylish and very cool.

There is no word yet on which of the three RTX 40 SUPER Series cards will be getting EXPERT models or if all of them will, so stay tuned for more details. If we had to guess, we'd expect EXPERT models for the RTX 4080 SUPER and RTX 4070 Ti SUPER.

The new GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the first of three new GPUs in the 40 SUPER Series set to launch, available on January 17. With 20% more CUDA Cores and beefed-up specs, it's faster than the GeForce RTX 3090 for 1440p gaming, using a fraction of the power.

Ahead of our full review (coming at a later date), we are allowed to present a first-hand look at the new GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER Founders Edition GPU - an unboxing! Similar in size to the RTX 4070 Founders Edition, the SUPER branding and metallic shroud are now in shiny black.

Putting the two RTX 4070 FE models side by side, the difference in look is immediately apparent, with the black metal giving the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER Founders Edition a more rugged and sleek look.

NVIDIA revamped its Founders Edition design for the GeForce RTX GPUs with the GeForce RTX 30 Series, where it introduced one of the most stylish and unique GPU designs in years. From revamped cooling with intake and exhaust fans on each side of the GPU to an all-metal build with intricate fins, it's a look and design language that has carried through to the Ada-powered GeForce RTX 40 Series.

With NVIDIA announced three new GeForce RTX 40 SUPER Series GPUs at CES 2024, the company also confirmed that two of the three models (the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER and GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER) will be getting Founders Edition models. Sadly, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is missing out.

With a similar form factor to the non-SUPER models for these graphics cards, these new Founders Edition cards include the new 'SUPER' branding but with black colored metal instead of the various shades of grey seen in the non-SUPER editions and the 30 Series.

After several months of leaks, rumors, and official teases, the GeForce RTX 40 SUPER Series of GPUs has been officially unveiled at CES 2024. Based on specs, pricing, and performance, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER, GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, and GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER all make a strong case for potentially picking up a new NVIDIA GPU.

NVIDIA is increasing performance without increasing prices - in the case of the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER (launching January 31), the price is being lowered from an MSRP of $1199 USD to $999 USD - a 16.7% decrease. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER (launching January 24) replaces the existing $799 GeForce RTX 4070 Ti while bumping up the specs and the VRAM capacity to 16GB of fast GDDR6X memory for the same price.

And then there's the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER (launching January 17), which features 20% more CUDA Cores than the GeForce RTX 4070 to deliver "faster than GeForce RTX 3090" 1440p gaming performance for the same MSRP of $599 USD. And with that, the TGP is increasing to 220W compared to 200W on the baseline GeForce RTX 4070.

NVIDIA's RTX Video Super Resolution has been out for a while, which brought a DLSS-style AI upscaling to video playback for all GeForce RTX graphics card owners. After a few months out in the wild, it received a notable version 1.5 update in October 2023 that improved image quality while adding a de-artifact feature to native resolution playback.

As part of its CES 2024 presentation, where the company announced the new Radeon RX 7600 XT 16GB GPU, AMD also revealed that the latest Radeon Adrenaline Software update is bringing driver-based upscaling for video playback using FSR technology.

In addition to this, the popular VLC video playback software is getting a Radeon-specific update in Q1 2024, adding FSR upscaling and hardware-based noise reduction.

At CES 2024, AMD announced a range of new products, from new Ryzen CPUs to a brand-new RDNA 3 desktop GPU in the form of the Radeon RX 7600 XT 16GB. With 16GB of VRAM and a $329 USD price-point, it's positioned to deliver mainstream generative AI performance, content creation, and even gaming where VRAM workloads are intensive.

The Radeon RX 7600 XT is launching on January 24, 2024, and it also marks the date AMD Fluid Motion Frames leaves beta or 'technology preview' to become a part of Radeon's Adrenalin Edition software suite and its HYPR-RX package.

With Fluid Motion Frames as part of the driver, Radeon RX 7000 and Radeon RX 6000 Series owners can now enable frame generation globally in any DirectX 11 or DirectX 12 title.

AMD has announced its new RDNA 3 GPU at CES 2024 as the Radeon RX 7600 XT 16G. Yes, this is another mainstream GPU from Team Red, but this time with 16GB of VRAM for $329 USD.

Available January 24, 2024, with models from Acer, ASRock, ASUS, GIGABYTE, PowerColor, Sapphire, and XFX, it's set to fill the sizable performance gap between the Radeon RX 7600 and the Radeon RX 7700 XT. At least, that was the expectation. Per AMD, in-game performance will be closer to the 7600 than the 7700 XT.

With 16GB of VRAM, AMD notes that this mainstream GPU is 'ready to take on 1440p' in games where VRAM capacity is a concern but is better suited for AI and content creation. Outside of the bump in VRAM and faster clock speeds, the specs are identical to the existing Radeon RX 7600 non-XT that launched in May 2023. What does this mean for performance? Let's dig into AMD's benchmarks and info.

NVIDIA's RTX 5000 graphics cards are on schedule to be launched at the end of this year, according to the latest from the rumor mill.

YouTube leaker Moore's Law is Dead discussed NVIDIA's next-gen GPUs in a recent video (see above), also touching on the topic of the performance levels of these incoming boards - with a major caveat.

Regarding the release date, Moore's Law is Dead believes (add an appropriate amount of salt to all this, naturally) that Team Green is on track to have RTX 5000 GPUs out by Q4 2024 (and he seems pretty certain on that, having floated this timeframe before, too).

NVIDIA is gearing up for the reveal of its new GeForce RTX 40 SUPER series GPU pricing, and now we've got some juicy leaks covering the pricing of all three of the new RTX 40 SUPER series graphics cards.

In his latest video, Tom from Moore's Law is Dead covers leaked pricing that sees an MSRP of $999 for the flagship GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER. NVIDIA's second fastest refreshed new card, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, will reportedly have an MSRP of $799, while the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is reportedly priced at $599.

This is coming from multiple sources of Moore's Law is Dead, with a distributor source confirming that -- currently -- the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER "seems" to be priced at either $999 or $1199... but $999 would be a much more aggressive mark for NVIDIA to take. This source added that without getting into the weeds of how price listings work in their system, the source summarized saying that NVIDIA is trying to either hide the RTX 4080 SUPER pricing, or the $999 price if "just being communicated now".

NVIDIA's new GeForce RTX 40 SUPER series graphics cards are NOT far away anymore, and now the company is officially teasing that its new RTX 40 SUPER cards are "on the horizon".

The company has kicked off a teaser on social media without specifically mentioning the GeForce RTX 40 SUPER series itself, but new cards being "on the horizon" is a big enough wink to gamers. NVIDIA has its Special Address event at CES 2024 on January 8, where we'll be introduced to three new graphics cards.

Those new cards will be the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER, GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, and GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER with varying specifications and a staggered launch schedule. The RTX 4070 is expected on January 17, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER on January 24, and the fastest GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER on January 31.
