A few weeks ago, we discussed the rumor that the RTX 4070 GDDR6 would be launched to replace the GDDR6X version, and it turns out that it really happened. Curious, we tried to dig deeper into the information about the graphics card, and here are the specifications!
Here Are The Specifications Of The NVIDIA RTX 4070 GDDR6
Can GDDR6 memory match the speed of GDDR6X?
The dwindling stock of GDDR6X memory owned by NVIDIA currently seems to really push one of the famous manufacturers to utilize some of the existing components. This is evidenced by the ratification of the RTX 4070 GDDR6, instead of continuing to use GDDR6X memory.
Below are the specifications of the NVIDIA RTX 4070 GDDR6 that we have summarized:
Chipset: AD104-251
Core: 5.888
Memory Interface: 192-bit
Memory Type: 20 Gbps GDDR6
Bandwidth: 480 GB/s
GDDR6 has 5% lower performance?
Based on the specifications above, it is known that the performance difference of the RTX 4070 GDDR6X is 5% faster than the GDDR6 version. With a speed difference of 1 Gbps from the GDDR6X version, and the Memory Bandwidth cut down to 480 GB/s, it doesn’t seem to have much impact on the downgraded version of the graphics card.
However, it is not yet clear information about the power consumption required by the graphics card, as reported by tom’sHardware. This substitution is said to be done temporarily, while waiting for Micron to be able to produce GDDR6X memory chipsets normally.
Comes with much larger memory?
With a performance drop of at least 5% from the RTX 4070 GDDR6X, it is reported that this has no impact on overall performance at all, considering that the RTX 4070 GDDR6 has a larger L2 cache, making the bandwidth not affecting the graphics card.
What do you think, brott? Do you think this downgraded version will offer more or less the same performance, or will it be slower because of the different memory type?
