According to a recent driver leak, NVIDIA is working on a line of Ada RTX GPUs for the mobile workstation market. The NVIDIA RTX Ada Workstation GPUs were discovered in an MSI driver that provides some insight into future products and device IDs for GPUs that have yet to be released.
Here are the NVIDIA GPUs discovered in the drivers:
- NVIDIA_DEV.2730 = “NVIDIA RTX 5000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU”
- NVIDIA_DEV.27BB = “NVIDIA RTX 3500 Ada Generation Laptop GPU”
- NVIDIA_DEV.2838 = “NVIDIA RTX 3000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU”
- NVIDIA_DEV.28B8 = “NVIDIA RTX 2000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU”
There is currently no information available other than the Device IDs, but Videocardz has speculated on the specifications for these chips. According to the report, the RTX 5000 Ada GPU may use the AD103 GPU with a 256-bit bus interface and a 16 GB GDDR6 memory buffer, while the RTX 3500 can use the AD104 and a 192-bit wide bus interface with a total memory buffer of 12 GB.
The Ada Mobility workstation GPUs RTX 3000 and RTX 2000 may use the AD106 and AD107 GPUs with 8 GB 128-bit and 4/8 GB 128-bit memory configurations, respectively. Their specifications may be similar to standard RTX 40 Laptop GPUs, but with lower clock speeds and a lower power limit. That’s all we know for now, but the RTX Ada workstation GPUs will undoubtedly take advantage of the Studio driver suite and provide a significant performance boost over the existing Ampere GPUs.
