NVIDIA’s Flagship Turing TU102 GPU For GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Detailed – 50% Faster Per Core Performance, 288 TMUs/96 ROPs on Full Die and New Overclocking Features-April 2024-www.yitit.com

More details of the NVIDIA Turing TU102 GPU that powers the flagship GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and Quadro RTX 8000/6000 series graphics cards have leaked out over at Videocardz. In an exclusive article, the website discusses information that comes straight from the NVIDIA editor's day, an event which is heavily NDA'd and discusses the architectural and performance aspects of the new GeForce graphics cards coming to the market.

NVIDIA Turing TU102 GPU Powering RTX 2080 Ti Graphics Card Offers A Generational Leap Over Pascal - Full Block Diagram Unveiled

The first details that are talked about are the Turing TU102 GPU block diagram. We have already seen the bare chip and it's massive in terms of die size, the biggest ever **102 GPU that NVIDIA's ever produced. Measuring at 754mm2, the chip comes packed with 18.6 Billion transistors and a totally new architecture design featuring different cores that are operating in tandem to deliver the world's best graphics chips for gamers to date.

The Turing TU102 GPU has 72 Streaming Multiprocessors (SM) featuring 64 CUDA cores each. The full die features 4608 CUDA cores while the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti features 4352 cores. The chip has 576 Tensor cores, 72 RT cores, 36 Geometry Units, 288 Texture Units (TMUs) and 96 ROPs (Raster Operation Units). In addition to the core specs, the chip has 384-bitmemory interface supporting a 7 GHz GDDR6 (14 GHz Effective) DRAM design and 2 NVLINK channels. The chip features 6 MB of L2 cache too.

Now since we showed that the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti is based on a cut down TU102 core, the specs are slightly different. We get 68 SMs with 4352 Cores, 544 Tensor cores, 68 RT cores, 34 Geometry Units, 288 TMUs and 96 ROPs.The actual clock speeds are maintained at 1350 MHz base and 1545 MHz boost (1635 MHz OC). The chip features 11 GB of GDDR6 (next-gen) memory featured across a 352-bit bus and clocked at 14 GB/s. This leads to a total bandwidth of 616 GB/s.
