Inno3D’s GeForce RTX 4070 to Come with 8-Pin Power Connector

Inno3D equips the following GeForce RTX 4070 graphics cards with a traditional 8-pin auxiliary PCIe power connector. chifel (via @9550 Pro).
Assuming the package photo is authentic, Nvidia’s AD104 based GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card has moderate power requirements, with 150W of power supplied by an 8-pin PCIe power cable and a maximum of 75W of power. It is confirmed that there is no problem. slot. Moderate power consumption is the reason Inno3D’s GeForce RTX 4070 has a simple dual-slot cooling system with just two fans.
In fact, former colleague Igor Wallossek revealed last night that Nvidia is not going to mandate the use of the new PCIe Gen5 12+4 pin auxiliary power connector (12VHPWR) on its upcoming GeForce RTX 4070 graphics cards. Some of Nvidia’s partners can equip their boards with his 12VHPWR power plug, while others use the two 8-pin power connectors to give the board more power and increase overclocking potential. I have. But at least there will be models with a traditional 8-pin auxiliary PCIe power connector compatible with existing power supplies.
Given its expected performance, moderate power consumption, and compatibility, Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 4070 could be among the best graphics cards.
AD104 graphics with 5888 CUDA cores activated (out of 7680 CUDA cores enabled on the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti) based on what we know about Nvidia’s upcoming GeForce RTX 4070 12 GB of memory using a 21 GT/s 192-bit interface, configured to use the 12-bit processing unit.
An AD104 GPU in such a configuration would be significantly slower than a full-fat AD104 chip, but the configuration would ensure that the majority of Nvidia-owned processors would fit in with the GeForce RTX 4070. Be a good overclocker.
Nvidia and its partners plan to start selling GeForce RTX 4070 graphics cards on April 13, 2023. Pricing for these boards remains a mystery for now.
