The RTX 4090 uses the AD103 core with 9728 CUDA Cores. This is the same core as the desktop RTX 4080. Turbo frequency of 2.04Ghz allows the graphics card to consume as much as 175W.

RTX 4080 or Below

The GeForce RTX 4080 is second in line. It has 7424 CUDA Cores and 12GB GDDR6. It also comes with a 192-bit interface. This card is based upon the AD104 design, which is the same chip as the RTX 4070 Ti. However, it is a shorter version. It runs at 1.86GHz base frequency and 2.28Ghz turbo.
