Veteran leaker kopite7kimi, who nailed the specifications of Ampere weeks before anyone else, has updated his forecasts of Ada Lovelace’s power limits. It’s important to note that.
Why it matters: Nvidia’s Ampere’ successor is nearly here according to leaks, and it’s going to be hot and hungry. GeForce RTX 4000 series cards, codenamed Ada Lovelace, could consume 50 to 100 W more than their predecessors across the board, with flagship models breaking new ground. Veteran leaker kopite7kimi, who nailed the specifications of Ampere weeks before anyone else, has updated his forecasts of Ada Lovelace’s power limits. It’s important to note that power limits are not the same as TDPs or TBPs; they’re an upper bound that only comes into play when overclocking is involved. However, they’re still a good guideline for power consumption, just an overestimate.
