Thanks to various entries in Geekbench, it was possible to discover several laptops with an Intel Core 12 in marriage with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti, which confirms the existence of this Gaming GPU which will be included in the new gaming equipment. with blue CPUs
NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti mobile functionality
As you can see from the screenshot above these lines, there is no doubt that this is an RTX 3080 Ti Mobile and therefore is a new model of Gaming GPU for laptops which would have already been fitted to certain models such as the HP Omen to which the above specifications apply. At the moment, the information we can extract is the 58 calculation units
The big difference with the RTX 3080 Ti is that it is not based on the GA102 chip, but not on the GA104 like the portable RTX 3080. NVIDIA has created a new variant called GA103S, which we don’t know if it will have a desktop version.
For the moment the implementation in terms of drivers of this GPU is very green, which is understandable from the moment when we will surely have to wait until the beginning of next year to see the official launch of this graphics card, which explains why performance test results under Vulkan and OpenCL are lower than those of standard RTX 3080.
Will NVIDIA replace part of its RTX 30?
2022 will be the launch date for the RTX 30 SUPER, whose star gaming graphics card is known to be the RTX 3090 SUPER or Ti, but the existence of the GA103S chip makes us wonder if we’ll see a replacement for the RTX. 3070 whose use of GA104 limits you to 48 SM units.
The thing that separates the high-end GeForce Ampere from the rest is the use of GDDR6X memory, which due to its high consumption is not used in laptops, and it shows in the RTX 3080 Ti Mobile since ‘it is limited to 1395 MHz. and 12 Gbit / s GDDR6. What little is known is that the laptop version is the GA103S, which will differ from the desktop version by using 256-bit rather than 320-bit bandwidth. So the GeForce RTX 30 added to the desktop lineup will have 20 GB of VRAM installed.
It’s unclear at this time how NVIDIA will position its GA103-based desktop GPU, as it has more SM than an RTX 3070 Ti, but much slower memory. In any case we wonder if we are facing the portable version of the RTX 3070 SUPER.
