Last November
We are talking about the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Super graphics card in the Max-Q version, that is, with reduced power consumption. According to the test, this video card is built on a GPU with 48 computing units, that is, on the same full-fledged version of the Turing TU104 with 3072 CUDA cores as the desktop GeForce RTX 2080 Super. The amount of video memory remains the same - 8 GB GDDR6, and at the moment it is not known whether memory with a higher bandwidth will be used here, as in the desktop version.
The maximum frequency of the GeForce RTX 2080 Super Max-Q GPU in this test was only 1230 MHz, which is quite normal for a mobile video card, especially in the Max-Q version. In the November leak, the mobile GeForce RTX 2080 Super was codenamed N18-G3R and its Max-Q version was credited with a TDP level of 80 watts. A full-fledged mobile GeForce RTX 2080 Super, by the way, will have a TDP level of 150 watts.
Finally, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the GeForce RTX 2080 Super Max-Q was tested in a system based on the Core i9-10980HK processor, which has not yet been officially presented. It has 8 cores and 16 threads, and according to Geekbench, it has a base frequency of 3,1GHz and a maximum turbo frequency of 4,92GHz. Recall that at CES 2020, Intel only announced the tenth generation of Core H-series processors, but did not disclose details about each of the models.
Intel also promised that the new tenth-generation Core H-series processors will be released in the first quarter of 2020. Perhaps the company in the new gaming laptops will be just updated NVIDIA graphics cards of the Turing generation, which will be included in the Super series.
