10496 CUDA cores for the RTX 3090

After Nvidia's founder and CEO has revealed the new Ampere-based RTX 30 series cards and detailed some of the performance, architecture and availability/price details, Nvidia has now released official specifications for three first SKUs in the RTX 30 series lineup, the RTX 3090, RTX 3080, and the RTX 3070.

As detailed earlier, the RTX 30 series is based on Ampere GPU architecture, packing 28 billion transistors, made on Samsung's 8nm manufacturing process.

The BFGPU RTX 3090, as Nvidia likes to call it, is a whole different beast, packing 10496 CUDA cores and providing 35.7 TFLOPs of single-precision performance. It packs 24GB of 19.5Gbps GDDR6X memory on a 384-bit memory interface.

The GPU boosts up to 1.7GHz on the RTX 3090, and it has a 350W TDP, which means it will need two 8-pin PCIe power connectors.

The RTX 3080 packs 8704 CUDA cores, with 29.8 TFLOPs of single-precision compute performance. The GPU boosts up to 1.71GHz, and it comes with 10GB of 19Gbps GDDR6X memory on a 320-bit memory interface. It has a 320W TDP and will also need two 8-pin PCIe power connectors.

The RTX 3070, packs 5888 CUDA cores, and its GPU boosts up to 1.73GHz. It has 8GB of 16Gbps GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit memory interface and has a 220W TDP, so it will need a single 8-pin PCIe power connector.
