Nvidia’s DLSS 3 REDUCES Power on RTX 4090?!

1 year ago

Let’s get started with Nvidia. Now as you might know, my stance on the 4000 series is pretty clear. I think it's way too expensive. But…. WOW, are they fascinating even pre-launch. Nvidia’s had their editor's day yesterday. Basically, they showed some demos and added extra info about the RTX 40 series. And one of the super impressive things was of course DLSS 3.

WCCFtech was at the event and captured the new tech in action. Im going to tell you right now. I was not expecting some of this information. First, the clock speed. the advertised boost clock speed for an Nvidia gpu is usually in a worst-ish case scenario. For example, the RTX 3090’s boost clock is advertised at 1700 Mhz. but in reality, thanks to NVidia’s GPU Boost technology, the same card runs at about 1900 Mhz. Well, we now know that the same thing happens with the RTX 4090.

The advertised clocks for that GPU is 2.52 Ghz, and according to the demo Nvidia did yesterday, the actual clock can reach up to 2.85Ghz. AT STOCK, So when Nvidia said that they were able to overclock this card to 3Ghz in their labs, I dont think they were talking about LN2 overclocks.

But that’s not even the craziest info from that event. When DLSS 3 is enabled, the card actually saves power. AND A LOT OF IT. When they tested cyberpunk 2077 at native 1440p, the 4090 was consuming around 461 watts. A big power chug.

When DLSS 3 was enabled at the Quality setting, The power draw dropped significantly down to about 350W. That’s a decrease of about 25% in power consumption. Still a lot, but definitely a power saving feature. And the temperatures? Well thanks to the insanely huge cooler, the gpu never crossed 57 degrees celsius. And that both with native rez or DLSS 3. DLSS 3 was actually slightly cooler by about 4 degrees.
