RTX 3090 release date
While the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 will be the first Ampere GeForce card on the market, hitting streets on September 17, Team Green is taking a staggered approach to this launch.
The Nvidia RTX 3090 release date will follow two weeks after the RTX 3080, and will be available to buy on September 24, and will be followed by the RTX 3070 in October 2020. However, get ready to hit that buy button fast, because we’ve seen reports that these graphics cards will be in short supply.
Alternately, the new Alienware Aurora desktops will come rocking the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 cards. So, if you miss out on the initial release and need a new gaming desktop anyway, those should be available soon.
RTX 3090 price
We had been bracing ourselves for a high RTX 3090 price, considering the specs, and rumors had suggested that it could be as high as $2,000/£1,500/AU$2,800.
It wasn’t quite as expensive in the end, at $1,499 (£1,399, around AU$2,030), but that still means it’s one of the most expensive gaming graphics cards in the world. If you were thinking of getting the RTX 3090, then, it looks like you’re going to need to save up. A lot.
The good news is that it will be bundled with a free copy of Watch Dogs: Legion and a free year of subscription to GeForce Now. Those should add a bit of value for gamers who don’t have deep pockets.
RTX 3090 specs
The official specs of the RTX 3090 are:
- Nvidia GeForce RTX CUDA cores: 10,496
- Boost Clock: 1.70 GHz
- VRAM: 24 GB GDDR6X
- Memory interface: 384-bit
- TDP: 350W
- Required power connectors: 2 x 8-pin
- PCIe interface: 4.0
As you can see, this is a big leap over the RTX 2080 Ti, and that 24GB of memory puts it in Titan terrority. When Nvidia presented this graphics card, CEO Jen-Hsun Huang gave a preamble mentioning the Titan line, and it’s clear – both from the specs and the presentation – that this is a follow-up to the Nvidia Titan RTX, rather than the RTX 2080 Ti.
Nvidia’s Titan GPUs, which although based on the same tech as Nvidia’s gaming GPUs, are in fact aimed at content creators and come with high price tags which are relatively affordable compared to professional GPUs.
So, while Nvidia has finally given up the idea that Titan-class GPUs aren’t for gamers, this is definitely a GPU that is in an entirely different class of performance, and is going to be overkill for a vast majority of people.
This is evidenced by the sheer scale of the GPU on offer here. Beyond it being physically large – the Founders Edition is a massive three-slot unit – it’s also rocking a whopping 10,496 CUDA cores and 24GB of GDDR6X memory. That’s more raw power than we’ve ever seen on a GeForce card. To put that into perspective, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti has “just” 4,352 CUDA cores, paired with 11GB of VRAM.
This won’t automatically make the RTX 3090 more than twice as fast as the RTX 2080 Ti – there’s more that goes into a Streaming Multiprocessor than just CUDA cores – but it certainly won’t be slower.
However in order to drive this much horsepower, the RTX 3090 comes with an absolutely hungry power draw. This is a graphics card rated for a 350W TDP, which is 30% more power than the RTX 2080 Ti. Nvidia is recommending a 750W PSU to run the RTX 3090, but to be safe and for max efficiency, we’d actually recommend going with a 1000W unit or more – especially if you’re pairing this graphics card with a hungry processor like the Intel Core i9-10900K.
We’ve also heard manufacturers like Asus claim that users with aging PSUs may want to upgrade to a fresh power supply to handle the sudden spikes in power draw that the RTX 3090 will bring.
There’s no way to tell right now just how big the leap in performance is going to be here. We haven’t had a chance to test the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 ourselves, and it’s smart to take Nvidia’s claims with a grain of salt. Whether or not it’s going to deliver the perfect 8K @ 60fps experience or not remains to be seen, but on paper, this is an absolute beast of a graphics card.
