Powerful gaming laptops containing the RTX 4090M and the RTX 4080M are set to come out on February 8, with prices starting at $2,000. Ampere cards maxed out at the RTX 3080 Ti in laptops, but the Ada Lovelace lineup goes all the way up to the RTX 4090M. Notably, it also serves up a wider range of laptop GPUs than its predecessor. Nvidiaĭuring its CES 2023 keynote, Nvidia also revealed the RTX 40-series mobile range, and that lineup actually includes more GPUs than the desktop range does right now. We haven’t heard much about these cards yet, but it’s safe to assume Nvidia may launch them throughout the year. The desktop GPU lineup is still missing the RTX 4060 and RTX 4050. With the RTX 4090 only $400 more expensive, the flagship is actually a better deal - so much so that the release of the RTX 4080 boosted the sales of the RTX 4090. The RTX 4080 also hadn’t managed to avoid controversy about its price. On April 13, Nvidia added the $6 to its lineup. However, the card made a reappearance at CES 2023 and was officially released on January 5, 2023, now dubbed the RTX 4070 Ti. Nvidia “unlaunched” the RTX 4080 12GB following some backlash about its price and expected performance. While the former landed in stores on November 16 with a $1,200 price tag, the latter never made it to the market under that name. Next, Nvidia announced the RTX 4080 16GB and the RTX 4080 12GB. In the days following the launch, it was sold for over twice its retail price on eBay, and scalpers still have some luck re-selling the card to this day. Much like during the days of the dreadful GPU shortage, the RTX 4090 is usually out of stock. The situation with melting RTX 4090 connectors just got more complicatedĭespite mixed reviews, the RTX 4060 is moving the needle for Nvidia Nvidia DLSS 3: explaining the AI-driven gaming tech The Founders Edition was priced at $1,600 from the get-go, but unsurprisingly, many of the cards made by Nvidia’s board partners cost a lot more. First announced on September 20, 2022, the graphics card hit the shelves on October 12. In this generation, Nvidia started out with a bang by introducing the flagship RTX 4090.
