Recent revelations about the NVIDIA RTX 40 series can be said to have continued to appear.After it was pointed out a few days ago that it would launch earlier than early Q3 2022, the estimated performance and TDP of the RTX 4090 also appeared. There were previous rumors that the RTX 4090 TDP would be as high as 600W. In fact, it may not be that high, and it should be reduced to 450W, and the performance will be 2 times that of the current RTX 3090.

Reports indicate that the performance of NVIDIA RTX 4090 will be 2 times that of RTX 3090, and the power consumption is actually 450W
Earlier, the whistleblower Kopite7kimi once again revealed news about the NVIDIA RTX 40 series on Twitter, and this time the protagonist is the RTX 4090.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 is expected to use the same AD 102 GPU as the Ti, but the configuration will be reduced. He mentioned that the RTX 4090 will be equipped with 126 streaming multiprocessors, with a total of 16,128 CUDA cores, which is much less than the 140-142 previously reported, but compared with the RTX 3090, the number of cores has increased by about 50%.
OK, let's do a new summary.
RTX 4090, AD102-300, 16128FP32, 21Gbps 24G GDDR6X, 450W, ~2×3090.
I am disappointed with RDNA3.
That's all.— kopite7kimi (@kopite7kimi) May 16, 2022
In addition, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card is also expected to have a 384-bit BUS interface, provide 21 Gbps speed and 24 GB of GDDR6X memory, and have a bandwidth of more than 1.0 TB/s. More importantly, the power consumption has been reduced to 450W instead of the previous 600W, so players don’t have to worry too much about a sudden increase in power consumption. The 450W is exactly the same as the current RTX 3090 Ti, which was previously said to be a “beta version” of the AD102 GPU. The 600W could also be the RTX 4090 Ti, but it’s a bit too early to talk about the 4090 Ti.
The performance part is also quite eye-catching, and is expected to be 2 times that of the RTX 3090. This also makes people look forward to the performance of other graphics cards in the RTX 40 series.
Finally, Kopite7kimi also added that the GeForce RTX 40 series will be launched in mid-July:
Mid July.

The currently rumored specifications of the three graphics cards of the RTX 40 series are RTX 4090, RTX 4080 and RTX 4070:

There are still about 2 months left in mid-July when Kopite7kimi broke the news, which is quite a long time. There may be some changes in the meantime, and we will follow the reports at any time.
Since the beginning of this year, the price of graphics cards on the market has continued to fall, especially in the past three months, with prices falling by more than -10% almost every month. AMD has also rarely announced the launch of a game bundle. It does not know what games will be given, but it only knows that it will cost more than 60 US dollars. Subsequently, RTX 40 series and Intel Arc series announced that these old cards that have been hyped up will undoubtedly fall even worse. Friends who want to change to new graphics cards are recommended to wait and don’t spend more than the original price to buy new graphics cards this year.
Recently, Bitcoin has also hit a new low in two years. At the time of writing this article, it was $29,988:

Ethereum is relatively strong and has not yet fallen below last year’s lows:
