The Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti hasn't had as many retail sales as the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti (apparently it's already hit shelves in some parts of the world), but the upcoming graphics card has only recently been spotted on PC. Razer, which could indicate an imminent announcement. Excitement is certainly building around the planned release of Nvidia's upgraded version of the GeForce RTX 3070. We really liked the original RTX 3070, so much so that we called it "one of the best graphics cards of all time." . in our review, giving it five stars. Can the RTX 3070 Ti meet the high expectations of its predecessor? That is, if you can get one. Stock issues have been prevalent since the launch of Nvidia's original Amp-powered lineup due to a global silicon shortage, a crypto mining boom (which has been waning in recent weeks), and, of course, resellers who they use bots to shop and benefit from available inventory. in high demand. The Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti was previously supposed to be available in 8GB and 16GB VRAM versions, but we've seen little reliable evidence to assume it will be available at launch. Current rumors indicate that the Ti-flavored GPU has 8GB of memory with 6,144 CUDA cores, a step up from the 5,888 cores on the original GeForce RTX 3070. Ultimately, we won't know for sure until Nvidia makes an official launch announcement, but we expect this to happen as part of its keynote at Computex 2021, taking place on June 1 at 1:00am EST/ 6:00am BST / 3:00pm AEST.
- What is it? Nvidia's next high-end graphics card
- When did it come out? Scheduled for around June 9, 2021
- How much will it cost? Nothing official yet, but hopefully competitive

Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti release date
This GPU has been rumored for some time, so it's no surprise that its expected release date is all over the place. It should be noted that Nvidia has yet to officially acknowledge the rumors of its existence, but with the RTX 3060 Ti launching in December 2020 with very little fuss, we may see a similar situation unfolding. The current rumor is that the RTX 3070 Ti will be publicly revealed during Nvidia's Computex keynote on June 1, alongside the equally anticipated RTX 3080 Ti, with cards available for purchase on June 2 for the RTX 3080. Ti and June 9 for RTX. 3070 Ti respectively. This is subject to change as we have no official news on the release so please bookmark this page as the last word on the street. The RTX 3070 Ti is likely to be pretty hard to come by on launch day, with demand for the Nvidia Ampere lineup being as incredibly high as it is. We're keeping our fingers crossed that Team Green includes their ``lite hash'' anti-crypto-mining technology in the new Ti GPUs to deter miners looking to buy the available stock in bulk, but we have no way of knowing. now if the inventory will be enough without bots and cryptomining enthusiasts increasing the shortage.
Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti price
(Image credit: Nvidia) While we expect the new GeForce RTX 3070 Ti to be reasonably priced, we have no idea what Nvidia's recommended price will be. The original MSRP of the RTX 3070 is $499 (£469, AU$809), but due to the scarcity of available stock, you're unlikely to pick one up for that price unless you can get it directly from Nvidia as founders. Edition card. No price rumors for the RTX 3070 Ti were detected, but the RTX 3080 Ti had 'leaked' retail prices suggesting a price of around $999 (about $780 / AU$1,400), so something in between. it is reasonable. assumption. It's no surprise that Nvidia isn't screaming about the pipeline for its upcoming GPUs given how bloated the market for the original Ampere series has grown, with the coveted RTX 3080 selling online for almost 3x its MSRP. auctions like eBay and Facebook Marketplace. And it's not just list prices: people are actually buying them at these insane markups after months of not buying one.

As mentioned above, we expect it to come with 8GB of GDDR6X VRAM, but this is still a step up from GDDR6 on the RTX 3070. It's also planned to only use a 256-bit memory bus, but this could be rated for 19Gbps with a TGP in the range of 250W to 275W. It won't top any benchmark rankings, and certainly not against the RTX 3090 or any potential RTX 3080 Ti, but it has a good chance of being the 'best' option for most gamers... if the price is right. . With the original RTX 3070 being a champion of affordable 1440p and 4K gaming, the extra cores will add juice to what was already a great GPU. On the other hand, the minimal tweaks made to differentiate the original RTX 3070 from the upcoming RTX 3070 Ti are incredibly risky. While the RTX 3080 Ti should effectively be a redesigned (and hopefully more affordable) GeForce RTX 3090 with half the VRAM, the 3070 Ti really isn't anything to cry about. A big advantage of the RTX 3070 was its 220W TGP (or total graphics power), which meant that the cooling requirements were much less intensive than those needed for the beefier 3080W RTX 320, which the Ti version loses if the newest ones. believed. Until we get some official benchmarks, it's unclear if the Ti version will be worth buying over its predecessor. The price will essentially make or break this version, then. If the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is released with a PDF based on the original RTX 3070 cell, still a minimal increase in performance from the memory for a profitable investment, but it will also be at the mercy of the prizes that are potentially won over. the partner. manufacturers. Obviously, gamers and PC enthusiasts have also raised eyebrows about bringing additional GPUs to market given the availability of existing products, which raises the question of who this product is really for. With Nvidia already covering just about every possible angle in the graphics card market right now, at least in theory, if you ignore the ongoing stock issues, it's a bit hard to see what it intends to fill the 3070's 'gap'. You. We won't know for sure until the official release, and we're keeping our fingers crossed that we'll be impressed enough to take our word for it.
