NVIDIA may launch the GeForce RTX 4070 to make its line of video cards more complete with an intermediate high-performance model, and according to rumors, this will be one of the most versatile products in the family with “Ada Lovelace” architecture. This Tuesday (21), a leak revealed new details about powering this GPU.
An image posted on the forums of Chipell shows the alleged GeForce RTX 4070 box in its customized version by Inno3D. A detail noted in the hardware power specifications is that the video card has an 8-pin connectorwhich could be an alternative version to the model with 16-pin 12VHPWR connector.
Apparently, the GeForce RTX 4070 will be compatible with both types of power supply. The traditional 8-pin connector can power the GPU with around 150 W (in addition to the power drawn from the PCIe slot), which would be ideal for more basic GeForce RTX 4070 configurations. breath for overclocking.
This wouldn’t be the first time that an NVIDIA graphics card would support different power configurations. The GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, released in 2020, has versions with 6-pin or 8-pin connectors.
NVIDIA has yet to confirm the launch of the GeForce RTX 4070, but it is possible that the graphics card will be announced soon with a 5,888-core CUDA AD104 GPU clocked at up to 2.47GHz, 12GB of GDDR6X memory clocked at 21Gbps and computing power of about 30 TFLOPs. The GPU must have 200 W TGP.
Considering the MSRP of US$799 for the “Ti” version, it is possible that the GeForce RTX 4070 will be available for around US$749 (about R$3,929). NVIDIA’s latest generation video cards can already be found in the Europeian market for prices that reach R$ 14,000 for the GeForce RTX 4090.
