The GeForce 30 series is a family of graphics processing units developed by Nvidia, succeeding the GeForce 20 series.
The line was announced on September 1, 2020, and will start shipping on September 17, 2020.[1][2]
These cards are announced to have Real Time Raytracing (RTX) with Nvidia's 2nd generation of RT cores and 3rd generation Tensor cores.[3] They support HDMI 2.1, but only support DisplayPort 1.4a.[4]
The cards are built on the Ampere architecture, which runs at roughly double the performance and energy efficiency of the preceding Turing architecture.[5][6]
Products
All the cards below feature PCIe 4.0 interface and are manufactured using Samsung's 8N (8 nanometer) MOSFET fabrication process.[6]
