Nvidia revealed the inevitable- GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs for laptops- at CES 2023. The new graphics card, powered by the Ada Lovelace architecture, includes support for DLSS 3, as well as running the fifth generation of Max-Q tech.
The RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 cards are, as expected, reserved for flaghip-level laptops, offering enough performance to play on three 4K monitors at 60 fps.
The rest of the lineup includes the RTX 4070, 4060 and 4050. Nvidia claims these are “faster than previous-generation flagship model, using as little as one-third the GPU power”.
While the desktop RTX 40 Series GPUs are known for being hefty in size and being power-hungry, the laptop versions are small enough to fit into a 14-inch form factor and thanks to Max-Q, can still be power efficient.
Expect to see RTX 40 Series graphics to power the new gaming laptops of 2023. Acer, Alienware, Asus, Dell, Gigabyte, Hp, Lenovo, MSI, Razer and Samsung will make use of them in their upcoming laptops.
