Nvidia could prepare an RTX 3080 Ti laptop graphics card if the rumors are to be believed. Speculations about Nvidia's high-end laptop GPUs have been circulating for some time now, though previous leaks from a few months ago pointed to the possibility of an RTX 3080 Super model (plus 3070 Super for that matter). This new spill placed the Ti label, rather than the Super branding, on the supposedly incoming RTX 3080 variant, with the theory being that this product will be based on Nvidia's GA103 GPU (GN20-E8), as reported in a tweet. by Matthew Smith. what VideoCardz saw (Smith is the custodian of TechPowerUp's GPU database).
It looks like the RTX 3080 Ti Mobile will use the GA103.30 chip. Oct 2021, 3080 See More The leak, as VideoCardz explains, is actually from someone posting to a PCI Device ID database under the nickname "Faintsnow" who is believed to be working for a graphics card manufacturer. Faintsnow added GPU details and confirmed that it would be the “GeForce RTX XNUMX Ti Laptop GPU” when asked what Nvidia's name would be for this graphics solution. No further details are provided here, so the reported information is admittedly sparse on the ground.
Analysis: Some kind of high-end laptop GPU in early 2022?
Obviously, we must maintain a healthy sense of skepticism as to the veracity of this, as this original source is really murky. That said, this is a rumor that's been doing the rounds for some time, and it seems likely that Nvidia will release a more oomph laptop GPU in the near future; Vine had previously argued that this mobile graphics card (or cards) could be unveiled as early as 2022. That means we could be looking at a CES launch in January 2022, and if so, we'd expect to hear a lot more rumors about this GPU. in a short order. There has been some controversy in the past about whether the alleged RTX 3080 Ti or Super could switch from the GA104 used in the RTX 3080 laptop card to using the GA103 as shown here, because as you may recall. Kopite7kimi, who first spilled the goods on the GA103 laptop chip, said at one point that it has most likely been cancelled. Kopite7kimi also chimed in with this latest leak, speculating that this new find might even be an RTX 3090 phone, not a 3080 Ti. As for the name, it's worth noting that Nvidia has never used the Ti suffix for a mobile GPU, so that has to be taken into account when trying to guess names as well. Whatever its name, the possibility of Nvidia still having a more powerful high-end laptop GPU behind the scenes, while hoping to become Ampere's new flagship in gaming laptops, lives on.
