A report emerged from Hong Kong-based site HKEPC last week that said Nvidia"s upcoming GeForce RTX 3080 Ti will be allegedly be priced at $999 and launch sometime next month in May. Today, the same site has said that it has now obtained the exact date of the launch. The site says that it received this information courtesy of the Taiwan-based AIB vendors who will apparently be launching their own variants on the 26th of the month and the official launch of RTX 3080 Ti will be a day before that on May 25.
But that"s not all. Nvidia is also allegedly launching the RTX 3070 Ti soon after that. While this time no exact dates have been mentioned, the unveil is said to happen sometime in early June, which means within a few weeks of the rumored 3080 Ti reveal.
The RTX 3080 Ti which, as we know of, has seemed to have gone through multiple revisions before Nvidia settled on its final specification. The information on the RTX 3070 Ti, however, had managed to elude us for a long time. But last month, VideoCardz managed to get some of the purported details on the RTX 3070 Ti as well as the final form of the 3080 Ti. The RTX 3070 Ti will allegedly offer the full GA104 GPU die with 6,144 CUDA Cores and feature faster GDDR6X memory compared to the non-Ti version.
The full rumored hardware specifications of the two upcoming GPUs have been listed below. Specs of the RTX 3090, 3080 and 3070 have also been provided for comparison:
| RTX 3090 | RTX 3080 TI | RTX 3080 | RTX 3070 Ti | RTX 3070 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| GPU ID | GA102-300-A1 | GA102-225 | GA102-200-KD-A1 | GA104-400 | GA104-300 |
| CUDA Cores | 10,496 | 10,240 | 8,704 | 6,144 | 5,888 |
| Memory Interface | 384-bit | 384-bit | 320-bit | 256-bit | 256-bit |
| Memory Capacity | 24GB GDDR6X | 12GB GDDR6X | 10GB GDDR6X | 8GB GDDR6X | 8GB GDDR6 |
| Memory Clock | 19.5Gbps | N/A | 19Gbps | N/A | 14Gbps |
It is being said that all of Nvidia"s future GPUs will come pre-installed with the mining-limiter in their drivers so we may expect the same with the upcoming RTX 3080 Ti and the RTX 3070 Ti as well.
