RTX 4000 SFF Delivers RTX 3060 Ti-Like Performance at 65% Lower Power

Nvidia RTX 4000 SFF Ada Generation

Nvidia's RTX 4000 SFF Ada Generation graphics card targets compact workstations, so it's unlikely that you'll find it on the list of best graphics cards for gaming. That doesn't mean that the graphics card sucks, though. A recent review from the Japanese publication Jisaku Hibi shows the RTX 4000 SFF performing very close to a GeForce RTX 3060 Ti,  with 65% lower power consumption.

The RTX 4000 SFF comes with the AD104 silicon, which powers the GeForce RTX 4070 and GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. However, the RTX 4000 SFF's die only has 48 fully-enabled Streaming Multiprocessors (SMs) out of the 60. This puts the Ada Lovelace graphics card's CUDA core count at 6,144, 4.5% more than a GeForce RTX 4070 but 20% less than the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. In addition, the RTX 4000 SFF is a workstation graphics card with a small form factor; therefore, gaming isn't its top priority.
