NVIDIA GeForce RTX SUPER Gaming Laptops Unleashed!

NVIDIA just unleashed GeForce RTX SUPER gaming laptops, as part of over 100 new designs featuring new Max-Q technologies!

Here is what you need to know about the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX SUPER gaming laptops!

 

Over 100 NVIDIA GeForce Gaming Laptops Unleashed!

Amidst the COVID-19 crisis, NVIDIA is introducing over 100 laptop designs from every major OEM out there, offering both GeForce GTX graphics starting at $699, and GeForce RTX graphics starting at $999.

In light of the new trend of working from home, NVIDIA is pushing the tagline – Worker By Day, Warrior By Night.

The new GeForce RTX and GeForce GTX gaming laptops will be available worldwide starting in the week of April 15, with more in May 2020.

 

NVIDIA GeForce RTX SUPER Gaming Laptops Unleashed!

In addition to new GeForce RTX and GeForce GTX gaming laptops, NVIDIA is also introducing new GeForce RTX SUPER gaming laptops for the first time.

With RTX 2080 SUPER and RTX 2070 SUPER options, they promise to deliver up to 25% faster gaming performance than the original GeForce RTX 20-series GPUs. This is what the new line-up looks like :

 

NVIDIA GeForce RTX SUPER Gaming Laptop Specifications

The new gaming laptops will be using the same RTX 2080 SUPER and RTX 2070 SUPER GPUs as their desktop brethren, but with slightly different specifications. Check them out in this comparison :

 

New Max-Q Technologies

NVIDIA is offering these new Max-Q technologies for all new 2020 GeForce RTX SUPER, GeForce RTX and GeForce GTX gaming laptops :

  • Dynamic Boost
    – Intelligently and automatically balances power between the GPU and CPU on a per-frame basis, boosting overall in-game performance.
    – Dynamic Boost is automatic, adaptive and always working to deliver more performance without increasing system power consumption. 
  • Low-Voltage GDDR6
    – NVIDIA worked with its memory partners to increase memory efficiency while delivering high performance with new lower voltage GDDR6 memory. 
  • Advanced Optimus
    – A breakthrough display innovation that delivers long battery life and immersive, stutter-free gameplay from NVIDIA G-SYNC technology.
    – Advanced Optimus controls which GPU is driving the display and intelligently determines the right GPU for the right workload at the right time, dynamically switching on the fly without needing a system reboot.
  • Next-Generation Regulator Efficiency
    – Next-generation voltage regulators help optimise system design so the GPU runs more efficiently while delivering higher overall performance. 
  • Deep Learning Super Sampling 2.0
    – Powered by dedicated AI processors on RTX GPUs called Tensor Cores, DLSS 2.0 is an improved deep learning neural network that boosts frame rates while generating beautiful, sharp images for games.
    It boosts a game’s performance headroom while maximizing ray-tracing settings with increased output resolution and extending battery life by up to 20 percent. 

NVIDIA promises that these new Max-Q technologies will double efficiency over previous designs :

Level51 Terra 15 | Terra 15 Lite Gaming Laptops Revealed!

Level51 just announced three new gaming laptops – the Terra 15 (RTX 2060), the Terra 15 (RTX 2070) and the Terra 15 LiteHere is our primer on these three gaming laptops from Level51!

 

Level51 Terra 15 | Terra 15 Lite Gaming Laptops

These 15.6-inch ultra-portable gaming laptops pair a 9th Gen Intel Core i7 processor and NVIDIA graphics options with a high refresh rate display.

144 Hz Display

All three models come with a 15.6-inch IPS display, with a Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. It supports a high refresh rate of 144 Hz, with a 100% sRGB colour gamut.

Their website did not mention G-SYNC support, but we reckon their displays should support NVIDIA G-SYNC.

Intel + NVIDIA

All three models are powered by the Intel Core i7-9750H 6-core processor, paired with three NVIDIA graphics options :

Note that these are all high-performance parts, not the lower-powered Max-Q variants.

Cooling Performance

To keep those high-performance components cool while you game, these gaming laptops feature four heat pipes and two high-speed fans, with four exhaust outlets.

Premium Chassis

All three gaming laptops feature an aluminium chassis with orange accents, and they are surprisingly light – just 1.97 kg for the RTX 2060 and GTX 1660 Ti variant, and 2.1 kg for the RTX 2070 model.

They are also pretty thin – the RTX 2060 and GTX 1660 Ti models are just 21.4 mm thick, while the RTX 2070 model is slightly thicker at 24.4 mm.

The EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super XC graphics cards will offer a 23.4% higher texture fill rate, with a 11% higher pixel fill rate, than the current RTX 2070.

However, there is no change in the amount of graphics memory, or the memory bandwidth. They will remain at 8 GB of GDDR6 memory with 448 GB/s of bandwidth.

Compared to the current RTX 2080, the EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super XC graphics cards will have 8.5% lower texture fill rate, but 5.3% higher pixel fill rate.

EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super XC Price + Availability

Both the Gaming and Ultra Gaming variants will be available for purchase starting 9 July 2019 at the same list price of $599.99 / ~£472 / ~€526 / ~RM 2,476.

RTX 2080 EVGA RTX 2070
SUPER XC
RTX 2070 SUPER RTX 2070
Launch Price $699.99 $599.99 $599.99 $499.99
Difference +$100 No difference -$100

If we compare their launch prices, EVGA’s overclocked RTX 2070 Super card is not a bad purchase at all. You are basically getting an overclocked version of the RTX 2070 SUPER at the base price.

But let’s compare it to the RTX 2070 and RTX 2080 XC Ultra Gaming models :

EVGA

XC G
EVGA RTX 2070

RTX 2070 SUPER RTX 2070

Launch Price $759.99 $599.99 $599.99 $549.99
Difference +$160 No difference -$50

Now, the new EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super XC graphics cards look even better. They are just $50 / 5% more expensive than the RTX 2070 XC Ultra Gaming, but offer better performance.

More significantly, the new RTX 2070 Super XC cards will still be $160 / 21% cheaper than the existing RTX 2080 XC Gaming card!

EVGA RTX 2060 Super XC Ultra Gaming Sneak Peek!

In our sneak peek of the EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 Super XC Ultra Gaming graphics card, we will share with you its key features, specifications, price and availability!

 

EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 Super XC Ultra Gaming

The EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 Super XC Ultra Gaming (08G-P4-3163-KR) is an overclocked version of the GeForce RTX 2060 Super, with a 1695 MHz boost clock.

It has two HDB (Hydro Dynamic Bearing) fans, an all-metal backplate, and adjustable RGB lighting. It also comes with a 3-year warranty.

Specification Comparison

In this table, we compared its specifications against a stock RTX 2060 SUPER card, as well as “regular” RTX 2070 and RTX 2060 cards.

Specifications RTX 2070 RTX 2060
SUPER XC UG
RTX 2060 SUPER RTX 2060
CUDA Cores 2304 2176 2176 1920
Boost Clock 1620 MHz 1695 MHz 1650 MHz 1680 MHz
TMUs 144 136 136 120
Texture Fill Rate 233.3 GT/s 230.5 GT/s 224.4 GT/s 201.6 GT/s
ROPs 64 48 48 48
Pixel Fill Rate 103.7 GT/s 81.4 GT/s 79.2 GT/s 80.6 GT/s
Tensor Cores 288 272 272 240
Memory Size 8 GB 8 GB 8 GB 6 GB
Memory Type GDDR6 GDDR6 GDDR6 GDDR6
Memory Speed 14 Gbps 14 Gbps 14 Gbps 14 Gbps
Bus Width 256-bit 256-bit 256-bit 192-bit
Bandwidth 448 GB/s 448 GB/s 448 GB/s 336 GB/s

As the comparison shows, this XC Ultra Gaming card has a slightly higher boost clock – just 45 MHz or 2.7% higher than a standard RTX 2060 SUPER card.

This is enough to give it a texture fill rate roughly equivalent to the GeForce RTX 2070, with a pixel fill rate that is a tad above that of a GeForce RTX 2060.

It also comes with 2 GB more GDDR6 memory, and a wider memory bus, giving it a large 33% boost in memory bandwidth.

In short, this card will offer a 14.3% higher texture fill rate, with 33% more memory bandwidth and capacity, than a regular RTX 2060 card.

Recommended : GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER – Everything Leaked So Far!

 

EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 Super XC UG Price + Availability

This card will be available for purchase starting 9 July 2019 at a list price of $499.99 / ~£394 / ~€440 / ~RM 2,067.

RTX 2070 RTX 2060
SUPER XC UG
RTX 2060 SUPER RTX 2060
Launch Price $499.99 $499.99 $429.99 $349.99
Difference No difference -$70 -$150

If we compare their launch prices, this slightly overclocked RTX 2060 Super card is absurdly expensive. It’s basically equivalent to the GeForce RTX 2070!

But let’s compare it to the RTX 2070 and RTX 2060 XC Ultra Gaming models :

RTX 2070
XC UG
RTX 2060
SUPER XC UG
RTX 2060 SUPER RTX 2060
XC UG
Launch Price $549.99 $499.99 $429.99 $379.99
Difference +50 -$70 -$120

Now it makes more sense… but is this new RTX Super card really worth $120 / 31.6% more than its RTX 2060 equivalent?

2019 MSI GE75 + GE63 Raider Gaming Laptops With WiFi 6!

MSI just unveiled the 2019 MSI GE75 Raider and GE63 Raider RGB gaming laptops, and they all boast the latest WiFi 6 wireless connectivity! Here’s a primer on these two new MSI gaming laptops!

The 2019 MSI GE75 Raider and its large 17.3-inch display is powered by the latest 9th Gen Intel Core i7 processor, with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 / 2070 / 2060 graphics.

In addition to its gaming performance, gamers can also count on its WiFi 6 wireless connectivity to ensure maximum bandwidth and low latency for esports gaming.

However, reviewers have noted that the 2019 MSI GE75 Raider’s battery life is shorter than expected when not plugged in, and its webcam was below par of a laptop with such a price tag.

Well, the higher the price, the higher the expectation right?

The 2019 MSI GE63 Raider RGB

As the slightly lower price, the 2019 GE63 Raider RGB offers the same gaming performance in a smaller form factor, with a smaller 15.6-inch display.

According to reviewers, the downside to this particular model is that its screen is dim and its battery life quickly drains, especially if the RGB lights are turned on.

All that power is convey to the gamer through a large 17-inch Full HD IPS display with 144 Hz refresh rate, 3 ms response time and NVIDIA G-SYNC support.

HyperDrift Keyboard

The most unique thing about the 2019 Predator Helios 700 is the new HyperDrift keyboard. Designed as part of the new Helios 700’s thermal architecture, it slides forward to uncover two additional air intakes for maximum cooling performance.

Sliding the HyperDrift keyboard forward also improves ergonomics – the keyboard is now closer to the gamer. On top of that – its MagForce keys use linear switches that triggers on the initial press, and increase up to 100 percent for more precise control.

It also has two hotkeys – Turbo to quickly engage overclocking, and PredatorSense to immediately access CPU + GPU temperatures, fan controls, RGB lighting and more.

4th Gen AeroBlade 3D Fans

The new Predator Helios 700 also comes with an improved cooling system. It not only leverages the HyperDrift keyboard for more airflow, it also comes with two 4th Gen AeroBlade 3D fans, five copper heat pipes, and the Acer CoolBoost Technology.

The new 4th Gen AeroBlade 3D fans have new 0.1 mm fan blades with a serrated edge, winglets along the top and bottom, as well as a curved fin along the inner portion of each blade. Acer claims this increases airflow by up to 45%!

How & Why NVIDIA Calculates RTX-OPS For GeForce RTX!

When it comes to performance, everyone knows what GigaPixels/s, GigaTexels/s, GB/s or even TFLOPS mean. But what the heck is RTX-OPS? And how did the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti get 78 Tera RTX-OPS of performance?

In this article, we are going to share with you exactly what RTX-OPS means, and how NVIDIA arrived at the magical 78 Tera RTX-OPS figure for the flagship GeForce RTX 2080 Ti graphics card. You will also learn why RTX-OPS cannot be compared with any other performance metrics out there…

 

NVIDIA RTX-OPS

When NVIDIA first announced the GeForce RTX specifications, one performance metric that stood out was RTX-OPS per second. It was easy enough to understand the other new metric – Giga Rays per second, but what the heck is RTX-OPS?

Is that a measure of the overall performance of the GeForce RTX card? Or just the new Tensor and Ray Tracing cores? What exactly does it mean to have 78 Tera RTX-OPS per second of performance?

 

Jeff Yen Explains RTX-OPS Calculations

In this short video, NVIDIA Director of Technical Marketing for APAC, Jeff Yen, explains how they calculate RTX-OPS, and the rationale behind creating it.

 

Why NVIDIA Created RTX-OPS

The NVIDIA Turing architecture is quite different from NVIDIA Pascal. Here are some improvements that prevent a direct performance comparison between the two GPU families.

  1. The new Turing SM (Streaming Multiprocessor) can execute integer and floating-point instructions simultaneously, using independent execution units.
  2. Turing-based GPUs have new Turing Tensor Cores that are optimised for inferencing operations, with support for much faster but less precise INT8 and INT4 modes.
  3. Turing also enables real-time ray tracing capabilities for the first time, with dedicated Turing RT Cores.

The performance of these separate components are measured differently. The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti (US | UK | Malaysia), for example, boasts :

  • Floating-point performance of up to 28.5 TFLOPS (FP16) or 14.2 TFLOPS (FP32).
  • Tensor core performance of up to 113.8 TFLOPS.
  • Ray tracing performance of up to 10 Giga Rays per second or 100 tera-ops per second.

So where does 78 Tera RTX-OPS come in?

[adrotate group=”1″]

In a game that uses hybrid rendering – combining traditional shader operations with real-time ray tracing and AI inferencing, the different “engines” in the Turing GPU can work simultaneously. Hence, their depiction of the Turing frame :

This is based on NVIDIA’s analysis of a typical hybrid rendering workload with DLSS enabled.

  • Deep neural network processing of DLSS using the Tensor cores takes about 20% of the frame time.
  • FP32 shading using the CUDA cores take about 80% of the frame time.
  • Ray tracing takes about half the FP32 shading time, but are performed by separate RT cores.
  • The new integer execution units (independent of the floating-point units) take up about 28% of the frame time.

In a hybrid rendering situation, the performance of the separate engines will not tell us what the actual performance will be. Hence, NVIDIA invented RTX-OPS – a workload-based estimate of the Turing GPU’s overall performance.

 

This Is How NVIDIA Calculates RTX-OPS (In Detail)

Using their analysis of the typical hybrid rendering workload, NVIDIA derived a formula that they feel will give us a better representation of the Turing GPU’s overall performance.

RTX-OPS is basically calculated using this formula :

Peak FP32 performance (in TFLOPS) x 80%
+
Peak INT32 performance (in TFLOPS) x 28%
+
Peak Ray Tracing performance (in tera-ops per second) x 40%
+
Tensor core performance (in TFLOPS) x 20%

When you plug in the individual performance figures for the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti (rounded up), you will get :

(14 x 80%) + (14 x 28%) + (100 x 40%) + (114 x 20%)
= 78 Tera RTX-OPS

So that, ladies and gentlemen, is how NVIDIA calculates RTX-OPS! Now you see why it cannot be used to compare the performance of GeForce RTX cards with the previous-generation GeForce GTX cards, or any other graphics cards in the market.

What do you think of their new performance metric, and the formula that created it? Is this a useful metric for you? Tell us in the comments!
