According to Tom’s Hardware a GPU-Z screenshot and photograph shared by user FluxRBLX on the Nvidia subreddit reveal the specifications of the rumoured RTX Titan Ada GPU, featuring a fully enabled AD102 GPU and 48GB of VRAM.
The screenshot details core counts, memory configuration, device ID, and other specs. The GPU boasts 18,432 shaders (CUDA cores), 192 ROPs, 576 TMUs, a pixel fillrate of 478.1 GPixel/s, and a Texture Fillrate of 1,434.2 GTexel/s. The memory subsystem has a capacity of 48GB, using GDDR6 (non-x) ICs on a 384-bit wide memory interface with 864 GB/s of memory bandwidth.
Base clock speeds for the prototype are significantly lower than those of any RTX 40 series (Ada Lovelace) GPU, with a reported clock speed of just 735 MHz. However, boost clocks are rated at a more conventional 2,490 MHz. The low base clocks are likely due to the early nature of the hardware, as this card was supposedly a prototype, and this might also explain the use of GDDR6 instead of GDDR6X.
Compared to the RTX 4090, the RTX Titan Ada outclasses it in shader count and memory capacity, featuring a fully enabled AD102 die—the only RTX-branded GPU in the 40-series family with a fully unlocked die. The Titan Ada's memory capacity is doubled compared to the RTX 4090, achieved by using a "clamshell" configuration with GDDR6 modules on both sides of the PCB. However, one area where the RTX 4090 outperforms the Titan Ada is in memory bandwidth, thanks to its GDDR6X memory.
The Reddit post also includes a PCB shot of the supposed RTX Titan Ada GPU. If legitimate, the PCB resembles that of the RTX 4090, with the giant AD102 die in the middle, flanked by 12 of 24 memory ICs. This PCB is likely a reference design, as Nvidia typically doesn't allow non-reference Titan cards.
Nvidia has not explained why the RTX Titan Ada never made it to market, but it's speculated that internal competition with workstation-class GPUs, such as the $6,800 RTX 6000 Ada, played a role. Additionally, with AMD lacking a direct competitor for the RTX 4090, the RTX Titan Ada might have been overkill for the average gamer.
