NVIDIA RTX 3090 Graphics Card

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 is an enthusiast desktop graphics card made for gamers with hardware-accelerated ray-tracing support and is built on the NVIDIA Ampere microarchitecture. It is most likely going to be based on the 7nm TSMC process and the GPU at the heart of the RTX 3090 will be the GA102-300-A1 variant of the GA102 GPU. The die area of the GA102 GPU is 627 mm² and the GPU houses over 40,000 million transistors. The core configuration of the GA102 is as follows:

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Specifications

CUDA Cores: 5248
TMUs: 328
ROPs: 96
Tensor Cores: 656
Ray-tracing Cores: 164

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 will be using 24 GB of GDDR6X memory connected via a 384-bit memory interface. The Founders Edition NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 will have a base clock of 1410 MHz and a Boost clock of 1695 MHz. Memory clock for the massive 24 GB VRAM will be 2437 MHz. This gives the card a maximum theoretical bandwidth of 936 GB/s.

The Founders Edition NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 is a triple-slot graphics card and uses a custom 12-pin power connector called the NVIDIA 12-Pin PCIe Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 connector. NVIDIA provides an adapter which uses two 8-pin PCIe power connectors on one end with the 12-Pin PCIE Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 connector on the other end. Total power consumption would be about 350W.

NVIDIA RTX 3090 Price

The expected launch price for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 is about USD 1400 and that translates to an Indian price of about INR 125000 once local Indian taxes are accounted for.
