GALAX Blurts Out GeForce RTX 4090 Ti HOF Product Branding


GALAX in its website’s front-page carousel, may have inadvertently blurted out the existence of a GeForce RTX 4090 Ti “Estetica carina e grosso” SKU in the works. This may well be a typo by the designer of its carousel graphic, but the existence of an RTX 4090 Ti SKU isn’t a question of if, ma quando. We know from our September 2022 articolo that the RTX 4090 only uses 88% of the streaming multiprocessors (SM) fisicamente presente sul 4 nm AD102 silicon (that’s 128 su 144 SM, oppure 16,384 su 18,432 Colori CUDA), although it maxes out its 384-bit GDDR6X memory bus.

The way NVIDIA carved the RTX 4090 out of the AD102 leaves it with plenty of room to create a faster SKU that maxes out the silicon, backing it with more GPU clock speed, possibly even 23 Gbps-rated GDDR6X memory, resulting in a top-spec flagship with ?10% higher performance than the RTX 4090, to consolidate NVIDIA’s position in the high-end segment—not that it’s under much of a threat from AMD right now. La Radeon RX 7900 XTX trades blows with the RTX 4080, and is barely a threat to the RTX 4090. NVIDIA would still want something to sell at $2,000 se non di più, and the only way it can do so is by maxing out the AD102 and hope that enthusiasts wanting to climb performance leaderboards would want such a card.
