NVIDIA GeForce RTX SUPER enters laptops

April 2nd – NVIDIA today announced GeForce RTX SUPER and Max-Q designs for laptops. The company has partnered up with major OEMs to deliver over 100 new laptop designs this month.

The new laptops will feature GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER and GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER graphics cards featuring NVIDIA Turing architecture with RT cores for hardware-accelerated ray tracing. Unfortunately, the press release does not mention any RTX 2060 SUPER models. The new cards will be available in Max-Q designs, which are lower clocked and less power consuming models of the Max-P designs).

The PR also mentions Dynamic Boost — an intelligent and automatic power balancing between CPU and GPU. This technology is adaptive and enabled at all times. Additionally, the new cards will support Advanced Optimus, which is an improved version of NVIDIA discrete/integrated switching technology for laptops.

The RTX SUPER will also feature low-voltage GDDR6 memory. NVIDIA has worked with partners to “increase memory efficiency while improving performance with low voltage GDDR6 memory”. Lastly, NVIDIA has upgraded the voltage regulator for the new SUPER series, but no further details are provided.

NVIDIA RTX SUPER for laptops will start shipping from April 15 (sale embargo), but more designs are expected to arrive in May. You should expect laptops from ACER, ASUS, DELL, Gigabyte, HP and Lenovo. Some of them are included in this post.
