Following weeks of rumors and speculations, Nvidia announced during its CES 2022 live stream a new high-end GPU the RTX 3090 Ti.
While the company did not provide information on pricing or release date, The Verge notes that the RTX 3090 Ti will include 40 teraflops of GPU performance, making it roughly 11 percent faster than the previous RTX 3090 which featured 36 teraflops.
The RTX 3090 Ti will offer 24GB of GDDR6X and offer the same amount of VRAM as the RTX 3090 GPU, which features 26GB of VRAM, though the RTX 3090 Ti will have faster VRAM running at 21Gbps, instead of the RTX 3090, which has the 26GB of VRAM running at 19.5Gbps.
Like other GPUs in the RTX series, the RTX 3090 Ti is running Ampere architecture, and based on the specs confirmed above, this will serve as Nvidia's new flagship graphics card, replacing the previous flagship the RTX 3080 Ti, which launched in June 2021.
Alongside the announcement of the RTX 3090 Ti, Nvidia announced earlier in the stream a new entry-level GPU, the RTX 3050, which arrives on January 27 with a starting retail price of $269. Both GPUs join the RTX 30 family as the eighth and ninth GPUs released since Nvidia debuted the series in 2020 with the release of the RTX 3080.
