The Nvidia RTX 4080 is already a powerful graphics card, sitting just below the RTX 4090 in the company's 40 series of graphics cards. Now it seems that a successor to the RTX 4080 may be in the works. So let's discuss what we can expect from the upcoming Nvidia RTX 4080 Ti, according to the latest leaks.
NVIDIA's Super Cards RTX 4070, 4070 Ti and 4080 Super Graphics Cards Leaked for January 2024 Launch
The latest leak comes from X-user (formerly Twitter) @MEGAsizeGPU who claims through undisclosed sources that a new Nvidia RTX 40 series graphics card is in the works. The new card has been called an RTX 4080 Super, but the leaker mentions that it could also be called the GeForce RTX 4080 Ti.
Nvidia phased out the Super brand after the RTX 20 series. It is even said to have discontinued an RTX 3090 Super GPU and replaced it with the RTX 3090 Ti. So I personally think it is less likely for the new and upcoming 80-class RTX GPU to have the Super brand attached as a suffix.
Let's speculate on the performance, as per the claims in the leak. While the RTX 4080 uses the AD103 chip, its new big brother known as the RTX 4080 Ti is expected to be based on the AD102 chip. This means that the RTX 4080 Ti will be based on the graphics chip in the RTX 4090, the fastest graphics processor offered by Nvidia.
