RTX 4090 Ti benchmark may have leaked and it looks pretty impressive
>
There have already been tons rumors and suspicions around the existence of an Nvidia RTX 4090 Ti in development. But now it looks like the tech grapevine may have some new information on the supposed GPU as well as the RTX 4080 16GB version.
According to new leaks reported by neowin, we may have some early benchmark scores for the RTX 4090 Ti. The Blender 3.3 test lists a mysterious “Nvidia Graphics Device” alongside the 4080 and other GPUs. The unnamed card scored 12,906.07 points, putting it 6.6% higher than even the RTX 4090 and lends to the rumor that it could be the 4090 Ti. Meanwhile, the 4080 scored 9,478.64 points, which is about 22.5% lower than the 4090’s score of 12,107.64.
For the Geekbench 5 benchmark, there were leaked scores for the 4080 OpenCL, CUDA, and Vulkan tests for the RTX 4080. The GPU scored 258,372, 300,728, and 148,838, respectively. Compared to the scores of the 3080, which has also been tested, the score increases are quite high.
Finally, there’s the 3DMark Time Spy benchmark, in which the 4080 scored 28,599 points for the 1440p test and 14,178 points for the 4K test. These are significant advantages over the RTX 3080, AMD RX 6950 XT and AMD RX 6900 XT.
Putting these benchmark scores in perspective
The supposed existence of the RTX 4090 Ti is rather interesting as rumors seem to swing wildly between the Nvidia RTX 4090 Ti reportedly canned due to its skyrocketing power consumption and it’s almost certainly something to be released eventually. The source of the earlier rumor, Moore’s Law is Dead, explained that the 4090 Ti could actually be a new RTX Titan Ada. Titans are wildly expensive graphics cards aimed more at creative professionals.
But judging by this most recent leaked benchmark, it seems that the performance is a better match for being a 4090 Ti rather than a super-professional GPU.
Meanwhile, the leaked benchmarks for the RTX 4080 16GB are quite impressive and show significant advantages over older GPU models from both Nvidia and AMD. This is a big improvement over the previous one RTX 4080 12GB version, which had to be officially ‘cancelled’ by Nvidia due to its mediocre specs.
So far, it looks like these upcoming next-gen cards might be a huge leap from their predecessors, though the prices are still a little too steep to be affordable for all but the most hardcore gamers.
