Huge Performance Gains are Shown by Nvidia RTX 4090 Benchmark Leak, but Inefficiency May Be a Problem

The new high-end GPU may offer twice the performance of its predecessor if this leak is genuine
Later this year, Nvidia is scheduled to release the next-generation GeForce RTX 40-series GPUs, and a recent leak is providing us a first look at the potential performance of these much awaited parts. The anticipated RTX 4090 desktop GPU from Nvidia reportedly achieved more than 19,000 points on the synthetic 3DMark Time Spy Extreme benchmark test, according to well-known Twitter leaker @kopite7kimi. If true, that would make the RTX 4090 the fastest Nvidia gaming card to date, roughly tripling the score of an LN2 cooled EVGA RTX 3090 Ti Kingpin Edition, which is the current leader, by about 30%.


You shouldn't accept this single, general benchmark result as the be-all and end-all. However, the source has a sterling reputation, and earlier rumors suggested that the upcoming GPU would be able to achieve such substantial increases. In fact, the RTX 4090 can easily "reach 2x performance" compared to the RTX 3090, according to the same leaker who claimed this in May. An earlier report stated we would even see a 2.5x boost. The predicted Time Spy Extreme score should still be intriguing to gamers looking for the latter; a 2x jump is significant compared to the 10–20% performance gains we typically see in a refresh.
There is only one asterisk that has to be added to that number, which is sure to make some AMD enthusiasts giggle with joy. If you've been following the RTX 40-series rumors, you definitely share our anxiety. According to speculations, Nivdia's upcoming flagship cards would consume a total of 600 watts of power (or 450 watts for the card itself). This benchmark score isn't as great as it might seem if the RTX 4090 genuinely consumes so much power. The real goal is to increase efficiency while also improving performance.Huge Performance Gains are Shown by Nvidia RTX 4090 Benchmark Leak, but Inefficiency May Be a Problem
If those said power specifications are accurate, heat control will also be a significant issue. In order to keep the card from overheating, vendors will need to be creative with their cooling solutions. To keep RTX 4090-equipped PCs running, bigger heatsinks and more effective fans will be combined with bigger power supply units. Not to mention, with the heightened focus on energy prices and reducing power consumption, Nvidia may be subject to regulatory scrutiny.Huge Performance Gains are Shown by Nvidia RTX 4090 Benchmark Leak, but Inefficiency May Be a Problem
Other rumors claim that the RTX 4090, the first Lovelace GPU to be made available, will operate at clock speeds of up to 2.5GHz or a little bit higher. The Radeon RX 7000 series from AMD, the first to use the new RDNA 3 architecture, will be in competition with Nvidia's RTX 40-series GPUs when they go on sale later this year—possibly in October.
