NVIDIA is preparing an RTX 3070 Ti video card for launch in May and, according to Videocardz, it will have two variants – an 8GB GDDR6X and a 16GB GDDR6X. This news was later validated by Uniko Hardware, which confirmed not only the specifications of the chip, but also the variations in memory. We also now know that the memory will have a clock rate of 19 Gbps.
NVIDIA RTX 3070 Ti will come with 8 GB and 16 GB GDDR6X VRAM buffers clocked at 19 Gbps
The NVIDIA RTX 3070 Ti will be based on the GA104-400 GPU and will have 6144 CUDA cores divided into 48 GPU clusters. This means that it has exactly 2 clusters more than its non-Ti variant and 20 less than the RTX 3080. It will have 48 RT cores (in comparison, the RTX 3080 has 68), which is also 2 more than the RTX 3070 and 20 less than RTX 3080. The ROPs will be 96 for this segment of the NVIDIA line and the clock speed is scheduled to be confirmed. It will feature a 256-bit memory bus with 8 GB or 16 GB of GDDR6X memory clocked at 19 Gbps. Currently, the launch is scheduled for May 2021, together with the RTX 3080 Ti, but that may change considering the volatile supply situation.
The following is the tweet confirming the exclusive details of the Videocard on the RTX 3070 Ti and RTX 3080 Ti:

Interestingly, the RTX 3070 Ti is positioned as a kind of replacement for the RTX 3070 because it is not * as * powerful compared to its name. With only a difference of 2 GPU clusters, there is a lot of performance to be achieved. The RTX 3080 Ti, on the other hand, is a big difference when compared to its namesake.
The RTX 3080 Ti has 12 more GPU clusters compared to the RTX 3080 for a total of 10240 cores (2 less than the RTX 3090). It has 80 RT cores and 112 ROPs. It will be coupled with a 12 GB GDDR6X vRAM buffer and a 384 bit bus for a total of 912 GB / s. It is clearly a one-card monster and by spec, it appears to be a slightly less powerful replacement for the RTX 3090 and the true flagship of the NVIDIA amp line. It is also scheduled to launch in May 2021.
In another world, where cryptocurrencies didn’t exist, I would have been very excited about this release, but it doesn’t look like I’m writing for another card that will probably never end up in the hands of a player and will spend its many digital cycles toiling in a cryptocurrency mine. somewhere. It is very unlikely that the supply and demand situation will improve within a month and, with the global chip and the shortage of NAND, it is unlikely that this card will be anywhere with your MSRP (whatever it is). Still, players can still expect to get their hands on them by signing up for AIB waiting lists and staying there for a few months.
