Nvidia has launched its new GeForce RTX 20 Series graphics cards, which are built on its Turing GPU architecture.
The new architecture combines traditional graphics rendering horsepower with real-time ray tracing and artificial intelligence powered by dedicated machine learning cores.
Nvidia’s new GeForce RTX 20 Series comprises three new graphics cards – the RTX 2080 Ti, RTX 2080, and RTX 2070.
The GPUs are aimed at high-end gamers and boast impressive features, including support for 8K resolutions and much higher performance than the previous-generation GeForce cards.
The company added that the Founders Edition versions of its new cards will begin shipping from 20 September 2018.
