Nvidia has officially announced a ‘Special Address‘ event scheduled for CES 2024. Anticipation is high for the unveiling of the new 40-series GPUs, with earlier rumors hinting at the possibility of an RTX 40-series Super refresh. The event details, including dates and timings, are eagerly awaited, and speculation is rife about the potential product launches that Nvidia might showcase during this event.
Nvidia has recently distributed press invitations for its forthcoming Special Address event, slated for January 8, 2024, at 8:00 AM PT. Scheduled just a day before the commencement of CES 2024 (from Jan 9 to Jan 12), it seems to be a pre-show event. Despite the proximity of the event, Nvidia has kept details under wraps, leaving the nature of the announcements, including whether they pertain to GeForce products, shrouded in mystery.
Interestingly, the timing of Nvidia’s upcoming event coincides with a recent leak about the RTX 4080 Super. A few days ago, hardware leaker kopite7kimi disclosed information on X (formerly Twitter) regarding the expected launch timeframe for this new GPU. This strongly indicates that the event might feature the introduction of new GeForce products specifically, the refreshed RTX 40 Series GPUs with the ‘Super‘ designation.
NVIDIA CES 2024 Event: Expectations
Nvidia had ceased using the “Super” branding following the RTX 20 Series Super launch in 2019. However, recent indications suggest a potential revival of the Super branding, with the rumored launch of the RTX 4070 Ti Super, a somewhat lengthy name for a graphics card. Additional RTX 40 Super GPUs are expected to be revealed at CES 2024. Here are some speculated specifications for the RTX 4080 Super, RTX 4070 Super, and RTX 4070 Ti Super graphics cards:
In terms of performance, it’s anticipated that we’ll witness an improvement of around 10%, reminiscent of the gains observed with the release of the updated RTX 20 Super lineup. Notably, the enhancements in VRAM capacity are more substantial. As discussed in our RTX 4060 Ti review, the demand for higher VRAM becomes increasingly crucial in 2023, particularly for those aiming to maximize graphics settings in the latest games.
