There have been some fairly consistent rumors lately about Nvidia possibly launching a SUPER variant of some of its RTX 4000 GPUs. Well, they’ve now been officially confirmed, and these new graphics cards are coming soon.
According to a recent post on the Nvidia website, Ada Lovelace is getting three somewhat-souped-up new products this month. The RTX 4070 SUPER will be launching on January 17, while the 4070 Ti SUPER and 4080 SUPER will arrive on the scene come January 24 and January 31, respectively.

How do they stack up, though?
As always when it comes to hardware, Team Green wants to sell you on the idea of these SUPER variants being better than their non-SUPER counterparts. The post linked above promises the 4070 SUPER will have faster speeds than the RTX 3090, the most powerful GPU of the previous generation.
There are also a number of charts showing how well the newer models go up against previous Nvidia hardware. It stands to reason that these soon-to-be-launched 4000 cards will be much better than the 3000 or 2000 series. The tech giant also promises a boost on their non-SUPER cousins, so it’ll be really interesting to see how the RTX 4080 SUPER compares to the regular 4080, for example.
As for pricing, the 4080 SUPER will be starting at $999, the 4070 Ti SUPER will be priced from $799, while the 4070 SUPER will start at $599. So that’s something to think about if you’re in the market for a new graphics card.
