Nvidia is reportedly working on a new graphics card for the RTX 3000 line. For the moment called RTX 3090 Super, it lives up to its name. Indeed, it has 10,752 Cuda cores, against 10,496 for the graphics card already in circulation. We can probably expect a higher price.
The Geforce RTX 3000s have been “available” on the market for almost a year. Quotation marks are required here as long as it is still difficult to find at a relatively reasonable price, even if the situation tends to improve. Over time, Nvidia has expanded its lineup with proposals like the RTX 3060 and, on the other side of the spectrum, the RTX 3090. To date, the latter is the most powerful of all. But maybe not for a long time.
Indeed, several successive leaks evoke the imminent arrival of the RTX 3090 Super. And if the standard model does not have to be ashamed of its performance, it could well be giving up its first place to the newcomer. While the first has 10,496 Cuda cores, we find some 10,752 in the second. What to boost the results on the benchmarks even more.

RTX 3090 Super to overtake original model
kopite7kimi, a leaker to whom we owe valuable information that has repeatedly proven to be correct, adds that the graphics card displays a speed of 21 Gbps on the side of its VRAM. That’s not all, since it has a TGP never yet on a GPU, namely 450W. The RTX 3090, meanwhile, is not really the weight on this point with its 350 W. In other words, we should a sharp increase in the clock frequency.
But all is not rosy in the land of graphics cards. Such a leap in performance is not without flaws, and will come at the expense of the less well off. While the RTX 3090 is already monopolizing on its own 3 PCI Express ports, it should be expected that his little sister does, at least, the same. This is without counting on the space occupied in the case, since there is a good chance that it will be even more imposing. Finally, it goes without saying that the price will also very probably be revised upwards.
