NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Mobile

Yesterday the first notebook maker listed its gaming devices featuring GeForce RTX 30 Mobile series up for preorder. Since then the company has removed the listing, but our article is still up in case you are wondering what was revealed.

NVIDIA will introduce three graphics cards based on 8nm Ampere architecture. The flagship RTX 3080 Mobile SKU is expected to feature full GA104 GPU with 6144 CUDA cores enabled, that’s according to Notebookcheck who recently updated their GPU database. The RTX 3080 would feature GA104-775 GPU which would be clocked up to 1.7 GHz. The clock speed will vary depending on the variant, mainly due to different specifications for Max-P to Max-Q models. This GPU is expected to feature up to 16GB of GDDR6 memory, which would be the first mobile gaming GPU with such a capacity. However, variants with 8GB memory are also expected.

The RTX 3070 Mobile would feature 5120 CUDA cores and GA104-770 GPU. This model would be clocked up to 1.62 MHz and offer up to 8GB of GDDR6 memory. Unfortunately, the memory clock speed has not yet been confirmed, but so far there have been no leaks suggesting that mobile Ampere would have faster memory than Turing (up to 14 Gbps).

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile would actually feature fewer Streaming Multiprocessors than its Turing predecessor. The card is allegedly equipped with 3072 CUDA cores which means it has 24 SMs as opposed to 30 enabled on RTX 3060. Otherwise, the card is expected to feature 6GB GDDR6 memory and a 192-bit memory bus, just like the Turing model.

The launch of GeForce RTX 30 Mobile is now planned for January 12. NVIDIA confirmed it will have a ‘Special GeForce broadcast’ where new mobile SKUs are expected to make a debut. New SKUs would expand the list of RTX mobile series to 8 models (not including countless and confusing Max-P and Max-Q variants).
