NVIDIA officially reserves DLSS Multi Frame Generation for its GeForce RTX 50 Series “Blackwell” GPUs, but the PC modding community has spent the past few weeks systematically tearing down those barriers. We have now reached the point where experimental implementations of NVIDIA's DLSS-G pipeline can run on RTX 40 Series “Ada Lovelace” GPUs, RTX 30 Series “Ampere” cards, and even the older RTX 20 Series “Turing” hardware. These projects are fundamentally more interesting than the numerous "DLSS (Multi) Frame Generation" mods that appeared over the past couple of years. Many of those older solutions simply intercepted NVIDIA's DLSS-G calls and […]

Per module temperature monitoring is now going to become common for both AMD and NVIDIA GPUs through third-party monitoring tools. HWiNFO Adds Per-Chip VRAM Temperature Monitoring for AMD Navi GPUs; Also Adds the Same Feature for NVIDIA RTX GPUs With GDDR6X/GDDR7 Chips Not long ago, we had some modders unlock per-chip VRAM temperature monitoring on NVIDIA RTX cards with GDDR6 and GDDR6X VRAM. It was followed by a similar development for the RTX 50 series, which utilizes the latest GDDR7 memory. Popular hardware monitoring utilities quickly followed the same path and added the feature, and it appears that AMD GPUs […]

NVIDIA’s RTX 50 SUPER lineup has followed a remarkably uncertain path, but the GeForce RTX 5070 SUPER may ultimately become one of its most important additions. Unlike the higher-end SUPER models, which are largely expected to rely on additional memory and power, the RTX 5070 SUPER reportedly combines a slightly larger GPU configuration with a substantial increase from 12 GB to 18 GB of GDDR7 memory. NVIDIA’s RTX 50 SUPER Refresh — Finished Hardware, Unsettled Launch Economics Before we dive deeper into the RTX 5070 SUPER, let’s first discuss the broader RTX 50 SUPER lineup.

There have been rumours about an RTX 50 Super launch for months now, but continued price rises across memory products have apparently derailed the planned launch. According to reports, a shortage of 3GB GDDR7 modules and increased pricing has forced Nvidia to delay RTX 50 Super. 

VideoCardz reports that while partners possess the chips for RTX 50 Super graphics cards, they can't proceed with manufacturing due to a lack of available memory, coupled with high pricing for the GDDR7 chips available. To put it in perspective, a 3GB GDDR7 chip is currently estimated to cost between $60 and $70. On the other hand, a 2GB GDDR7 chip reportedly costs about $20. 

The rumoured RTX 50 Super refresh was apparently planned with 3GB GDDR7 modules in mind, up from the standard 2GB chips found on regular RTX 50 cards. This upgrade shifts the RTX 5070 Super to 18GB of VRAM, while both the RTX 5070 Ti Super and RTX 5080 Super should feature 24GB. However, Nvidia is allegedly redirecting these specific 3GB components to its more profitable AI graphics cards, including RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell and Rubin CPX, where it's easier to mask the increased price of the 3GB GDDR7 modules.

According to the Seasonic Power Supply calculator, the RTX 50 Super GPUs may also have higher TGP targets than their non-Super counterparts. Apparently an RTX 5080 Super will draw as much as 415W, a 55W increase over the RTX 5080. The RTX 5070 Ti Super has been seen listed at 350W and the RTX 5070 Super is listed at 275W. The theory is that the increased power draw is tied to the denser memory configuration, as well as potential clock speed bumps.

KitGuru Says: Do you think we will eventually get an RTX 50 Super refresh, or will Nvidia jump right to RTX 60? 

As of now, at least one board partner has received the latest RTX 50 Super cards, but NVIDIA has reportedly put the GPUs on hold for sale. NVIDIA Board Partners Receive RTX 50 Super GPUs, But Are Put on Hold Due to 3 GB GDDR7 Memory Prices It appears that NVIDIA has already prepared the Blackwell RTX 50 SUPER series cards, but some decisions are yet to be made. We have previously reported that the RTX 50 Super cards were delayed due to pricey GDDR7 memory, and given the current state of the market, NVIDIA not only delayed the SUPER […]
