On paper, these specs and results probably won’t pose too much of a challenge to the next generation PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles, but we’ve found the GeForce Now is an affordable and convenient way of getting new games into people’s homes without having to buy new hardware. Plus, when you start using GeForce Now on older and under-powered devices that usually wouldn’t be able to achieve those kind of results, it suddenly becomes a lot more impressive. While this isn’t mind-blowing, it’s enough to run the game remotely at a playable rate. It also records an average frame rate of 27.1 FPS.

The GA102-225 GPU is equipped with 80 SMs that, thanks to a doubling of FP32 units with the Ampere architecture, contain 10,240 CUDA Cores.The benchmarks that have been shared are for Ashes of Singularity, and they show the GeForce Now hardware managing a score of 2,600 in the game using the ‘Crazy’ graphics preset, and at 1080p resolution. That's only 256 cores shy of the RTX 3090's GA102-300 GPU, which tells you all you need to know about the computational firefight you can expect from these two. With 80 SMs comes 80 of Nvidia's RT Cores, tailor-made for ray tracing. These are the second generation of RT Core found within Ampere, and are pretty effective for ray tracing acceleration-they're the best around today anyways, and outperform AMD's roughly equivalent first-gen Ray Accelerators.Īlso included in the chip are 320 Tensor Cores, which are better suited to reduced precision operations used in machine learning.
These are plenty useful in data centres for machine learning workloads, but for us gamers it's purely Nvidia's performance-pushing Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) tech that will find a use for these bespoke cores.
Generally speaking, it's CUDA Cores and clock speeds that we care for most, and the RTX 3080 Ti has both where it counts. The Founders Edition manages a boost clock of 1,665MHz, although will exceed that in practice. Some judicious boosting baked into the card with Nvidia GPU Boost sees the card averaging a clock speed of 1,740MHz in Metro Exodus at 4K, only 26MHz slower than the RTX 3090 in the same run. Then there's the memory capacity, and while it had looked for a while like Nvidia would stick 20GB of the good VRAM stuff on the RTX 3080 Ti, it's instead settled for a happy median of 12GB GDDR6X with the RTX 3080 Ti that's actually landed before us. That's half of the 24GB loaded onto the RTX 3090 yet an improvement on the RTX 3080's 10GB. Therein surfaces an important distinction, at least from Nvidia's perspective. The RTX 3090 is built for creators and professionals using high demand applications, rather than gaming. Granted, it's a little confusing since the RTX 3090 is a GeForce RTX 3090, and the GeForce brand has historically entailed the green team's gaming chips, but Nvidia would still have the RTX 3080 as the existing 'gaming flagship'. Here's our thoughts on the top cards to help make your mind up: Now the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti is set to take that top spot.Ĭan't decide which ultra high-end graphics card to chase? Good for you.

The RTX 3080 Ti adopts a near-identical Founders Edition cooler and shroud to the one found on the RTX 3080. There is one visible change in the shroud with the RTX 3080 Ti. The raised trim that circumvents both the heatsink and fans on the underside of the card are now shiny, as Nvidia is wont to do with fancy new versions of its GPUs (see: RTX 20-series Super). The I/O bracket is also covered in this shiny finish, as opposed to the matt black coat on previous Founders Edition 30-series cards. The decision to retain the same Founders Edition cooler as the RTX 3080 also leaves the RTX 3090 as the only RTX 30-series card to arrive with its oversized jumbo shroud. As a result the RTX 3080 Ti does run notably hotter than the RTX 3090 over three runs of Metro Exodus: 75☌ peak under load and averaging at 69☌ to the RTX 3090 FE's 69☌ under load and 65☌ average temperature. Otherwise, regarding the card's physical design, perhaps you'll be keen to hear the PCB for the Founders Edition will retain the unique V-shape cutout introduced with previous FE cards. Something to consider should you want to use a custom water block. The proprietary 12-pin power connector isn't going anywhere, either, and a twin 8-pin power adapter is included in the box. That brings us neatly onto power demands, and you'll need a fairly powerful PSU to run the RTX 3080 Ti without issue at 350W. Nvidia recommends a 750W PSU, so something similar at a minimum.
