Nvidia kicks of its fall GTC 2022 event next week, where we’ll probably see the launch of the RTX 490. Although Nvidia is tight-lipped as ever about what products it has in store, a slew of leaks and rumors have shown that we’ll see the launch of the RTX 4090 — and possibly other GPUs — during the keynote.
It’s possible we’ll see more than just next-generation GPUs as well. Here’s how to watch the RTX 4090 launch live and what to expect out of the presentation.
How to see the Nvidia RTX 4090 rocket at GTC2022
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang will deliver the company’s GTC 2022 keynote on Tuesday, September 20, at 8 a.m. PT. The presentation will likely be streamed on Nvidia’s YouTube channel, but you can bookmark the stream link on Nvidia’s websiteAs well. Above, you can see the GeForce Beyond stream. Nvidia has also its GTC full keynote streamLive if you wish to receive other announcements
Although the executive keynote is what most people tune in for, Nvidia’s fall GTC event lasts most of the week. It is completely virtual and runs from September 19 through September 22. You can attend additional developer sessions — you can register and build a schedule on Nvidia’s GTC landing page — but they’ll focus on how developers can use Nvidia’s tools, not new product announcements.
Register to attend the developer session. The keynote doesn’t require registration, however, and will steam on Nvidia’s YouTube channel.
What to Expect from the Nvidia RTX 4090 launching
You should first expect the RTX 4090 to launch. Although Nvidia hasn’t confirmed any details about the card, or even that it’s called the RTX 4090, we The full specs are available hereIt was announced a few days back. According to the leak, Nvidia will announce the RTX 4090 and two RTX 4080 models — a 12GB variant and a 16GB variant.
It’s all but confirmed that Nvidia will launch its next-gen GPUs, which rumors say could offer Double your performancethe current generation. According to leakers, these cards will have a configurable TDP. The story goes that each card will have a base power draw that’s in-line with what you’d expect from a GPU, but that users will be able to dedicate more power to the card for increased performance.
There’s a chance we’ll see more than the new cards, too. Nvidia teased Project Beyond for some time, posting vague videos to GeForce’s Twitter account. These videos show a desktop setup with many clues. A recent video showed the computer starting Adobe Media Encoder to render, which suggests it could be related to creative apps.

Although it’s possible Project Beyond is just Nvidia’s branding for the RTX 4090 launch, it’s probably something different. In Nvidia’s most recent earnings call, the company said that it planned to reach “new segments of the market … with our gaming technology.”
This could be any meaning, but it is possible to make educated guesses. Last year, Nvidia and Demo shared a demoARM PCs are the foundation for future ARM-based gaming. However Nvidia’s acquisition of ARM fell through, there’s still a good chance the companies are working closely together.
New segments of the market could mean PCs that don’t use traditional x86 CPUs like the ones offered by Intel and AMD. While this speculation is purely speculation, ARM gaming was a key focus for Nvidia for a while. Nvidia provides many of its gaming features for developers using ARM applications.
Project Beyond could also serve as a tool for creators. Not only has Nvidia teased video encoding, but CEO Jensen Huang specifically called out streamers, vloggers, and other types of content creators during the company’s most recent earnings call.
We’ll need to wait until the keynote before knowing for sure, though. It’s almost certain that the RTX 4090 announcement will be made, but Nvidia may have something else in store.
