Nvidia will kick off the proceedings at the 2019 edition of Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, US. The chipset giant has been under pressure to revive its business after its sales took a big hit due to waning cryptomining demand.

Said to be mobile version of GeForce RTX graphics, the card is expected to feature up to 6GB of GDDR5X memory and 1920 CUDA cores. The card is expected to support HDMI, USB Type-C, and two outputs for DisplayPort.

The new card is said to be a stripped down version of high-end GeForce RTX 2070 and GeForce RTX 2080.
