Nvidia has just released its RTX 4000 SFF Ada graphics card, a product from a company that is known for its high consumption, but this time it showed well that it was able to, despite the very good performance, Excellent energy efficiency using the Ada architecture for GPUs, which is quite clear in the published benchmarks.

The performance of the Nvidia Ada GPU was determined in the RTX 4000 SFF Ada graphics card test
The Nvidia RTX 4000 SFF Ada graphics card is the smallest workstation-grade Ada series GPU you can buy. It’s roughly the same price as the RTX 4080 at US$1,250, but the RTX option doesn’t come with the Pro driver suite and extended features and support associated with the workstation family. This graphics card uses the AD104 GPU with 6144 CUDA cores and provides the user with 20 GB of GDDR6 memory.
Now that the card has hit store shelves and is widely available, especially in Asian markets, Japanese store jisakuhibi decided to put the graphics card through a range of tests. This graphics card can be tested through a wide range of software in simulated conditions (3DMark) and also games, the latter of which is not a suitable option for this card because this product is not optimized for gaming in any way. But still, it is able to provide 90-95% performance of the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti graphics card.

The results of this benchmark are not strange at all since the Nvidia RTX 4000 SFF Ada graphics card comes with more cores, more VRAM and a completely new graphics architecture, but what makes this comparison interesting is the fact that the new graphics card 63 percent It consumes less energy than RTX 3060 Ti, which is a really impressive figure. Meanwhile, it has been able to jump 70% in terms of efficiency compared to its predecessor, the RTX A2000.
It is safe to say that in terms of the performance of the RTX A2000 graphics card, it cannot be compared to the new Nvidia product, because the RTX A4000 consumes twice as much power (140W) and also has a much higher price. However, RTX 4000 and RTX A2000 are the most similar in terms of SFF designs and product segmentation.
In addition, despite the SFF cooling solution, the Nvidia RTX 4000 SFF Ada graphics card was running at a temperature of 74°C at peak load, but it must be said that at its maximum speed, which was close to 4000 RPM, the blower fan made a lot of noise in It produced about 34.6 dBA. Fortunately, this card can be upgraded with a custom passive heatsink and still get the same performance without any noise.
With all this in mind, the Nvidia RTX 4000 SFF Ada received a very good score recommendation, indicating that it would perform well in AI and even gaming as a workstation. It also supports the latest features like DLSS 3, AV1 Encoding, unlimited simultaneous encoding, and workstation-specific optimizations and support for features like NVIDIA Mosiac. Also, users can enjoy the implementation of productive artificial intelligence on this graphics card in a very efficient way.
