Scorpion Canyon with Intel Core CPUs and optional RTX 4060/4070 GPU

Simply NUC, a well-known custom computing company, has added the new Scorpion Canyon NUC 14 Performance to its lineup. This small NUC packs a workstation-class performance with Intel's latest Core Ultra Meteor Lake CPUs with Intel Arc integrated graphics and an optional Nvidia RTX 4060 or RTX 4070 graphics.

A business-oriented twin of ROG NUC

ASUS has introduced its newest NUC 14 Performance, a small powerhouse equipped with up to Intel Core Ultra 9 185H CPU and Nvidia Geforce RTX 4070 GPU. This puts it in line with ASUS' previously launched ROG NUC.

Already on the market with the same specifications

There was already a rumor that Nvidia might use new variants of the GPU for its Geforce RTX 4070 and RTX 4060 graphics cards, and one such, the RTX 4070 based on the AD103-175 GPU, has been spotted in GPU-Z software.

Coming with a 16-pin 12VHPWR connector

The first pictures of the upcoming Nvidia Geforce RTX 4070 Super have leaked online, and we are looking at Asus' Geforce RTX 4070 Super Dual OC version. As you know, Nvidia is expected to announce the Geforce RTX 4070 Super on January 8th. The RTX 4070 Super will pack more CUDA cores but come with the same memory configuration.

Those AD103 GPUs that are not good enough for RTX 4080

According to the latest rumor, Nvidia could introduce an RTX 4070 version with AD103 GPU, reusing some of those GPUs that are not qualified for the RTX 4080.

Plenty of stock, even at MSRP

Nvidia has officially launched its new Geforce RTX 4070 graphics card, and while first reviews of RTX 4070 graphics cards launching at MSRP were up yesterday, the company has also lifted the NDA for factory-overclocked and more expensive custom graphics cards today. It also appears that availability for the Geforce RTX 4070 is great and there are plenty of graphics cards available, even at the $599.99 MSRP.

Support for RTX 4070 and a couple of fixes

Nvidia has released its latest Geforce 531.61 WHQL driver, mainly to bring support for the launched Geforce RTX 4070 graphics card, but it also comes with a few fixes.

First MSRP reviews are out

The NDA for Nvidia's new Geforce RTX 4070 has been lifted today, allowing fellow IT journalists to publish the first batch of reviews for those RTX 4070 graphics cards that will launch at $600 MSRP. The reviews for overclocked Geforce RTX 4070 graphics cards should show up tomorrow, which is also the date for global retail availability.

RTX 4070 Founders Edition pictured

Just a few days before the official launch, scheduled for April 13th, the first Nvidia official performance numbers for the GeForce RTX 4070 have leaked online, showing it to be on par with the RTX 3080, at least with DLSS 3. It also appears that Nvidia will also launch an RTX 4070 Founders Edition (FE), which would make it the third FE graphics card in the RTX 40 series.

Give a lot more room for more expensive custom cards

According to the latest info, Nvidia Geforce RTX 4070 could launch at $599.99, making it a good $200 less expensive than the RTX 4070 Ti.
