About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Mobile GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Mobile is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q1 2023. It is built on the Ada Lovelace GPU microarchitecture (codename AD103) and is manufactured on a 5 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 4090 Mobile has 16 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 2,250 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 576 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RTX 4090 Mobile includes 9,728 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,335 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,695 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 304 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 112 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 304 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 76 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 120 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The RTX 4090 Mobile has the 22nd best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 567 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 49.89% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090.

About the Intel Arc A380 GPU

The Intel Arc A380 is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q2 2022 with a MSRP of $149. It is built on the Generation 12.7 GPU microarchitecture (codename DG2-128) and is manufactured on a 6 nm process.

Memory

The Arc A380 has 6 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 1,937 MHz memory clock and a 96 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 186 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Arc A380 includes 1,024 shading units, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 2,000 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 2,050 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 64 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 32 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 128 Xe Matrix Extensions (XMX) optimized for AI workloads and 8 ray tracing units dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The Arc A380 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 2.0 display connections. Intel recommends a power supply of at least 250 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 75 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The Arc A380 has the 168th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 567 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 10.70% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090. Its 13,892 score and $149 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 93.23. This is the 33rd best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
