Nvidia reportedly releasing RTX 3090 Ti GPU, despite RTX 3000 Super rumours

Ampere, Tis, and Supers, oh my!

It seems Nvidia can't let go of its Ti branding despite recent reports that the company is working on new RTX 3000 Super GPUs. RTX 3090 Super will instead be an RTX 3090 Ti. This change reportedly comes with more than just a name, with additions to its core counts and a new power connector.

The RTX 3090 Ti reportedly has a TDP of up to 450W, a 100W increase over the current RTX 3090. More interesting than that, however, is that this new GPU may feature an all-new power connector which will become standard for PCIe Gen5. Unfortunately, there's no information confirming whether the card itself will have a PCIe Gen5 interface.

Nvidia's new and improved flagship GPU will also feature 10,752 CUDA cores, 256 more than the current RTX 3090, and 2 additional RT cores. There's no way to translate these specification changes into real-world performance improvements. However, it's a given that the RTX 3090 Ti will be one of the ongoing chip shortage doesn't continue to stifle availability.

Another notable difference between the RTX 3090 and the RTX 3090 Ti is memory bandwidth, with the Ti offering improved memory clocks of 21Gbps versus the base card's 19.5Gbps. If true, this would give the GPU a total memory bandwidth of over 1TB/s.

You should be able to get this goliath of a pixel pusher in your RDNA 3 GPUs which are both rumoured to launch sometime in 2022.
