NVIDIA Officially Teases RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3070 Ti

Months of speculation can now start to come to an end, with NVIDIA themselves officially teasing the soon-to-be-released RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3070 Ti graphics cards. These come in to supplant NVIDIA's previous category leaders RTX 3080 and RTX 3070, updating and increasing their performance so as to better compete with AMD's RDNA2-powered RX 6900 XT and RX 6800 XT. NVIDIA starting to tease these releases now coincides with the COMPUTEX 2021 keynote event, scheduled for next week.

The RTX 3080 Ti will be powered by the Ampere GA102-225 GPU (10,240 active CUDA cores), paired with 12 GB of GDDR6X memory (an increase from the RTX 3080's 10 GB). The RTX 3070 Ti is to feature the GA104-400 GPU (6,144 active CUDA cores) paired with 8 GB of GDDR6X memory, thus increasing overall memory bandwidth over the RTX 3070's GDDR6-enabled one. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3070 Ti are thus expected to launch in early June. Reviews for the RTX 3080 Ti are to go live on June 3rd, with the product launch coming on June 4th. The RTX 3070 Ti will launch a week later on June 10th.

Dear NVidia,

Pay attention!

The 3080ti should have 20GB of VRAM.

The 3070ti should have 16GB of VRAM.

That is all.

Thank You!

That's a rare card, the RTX 3989....holy crap, how did someone get their hands on one before they are released to the wilds?

Very serious! Any info on that matter? I remember that NV was looking for tsmc 7nm and June 2021 was mentioned.

Pointless lower-density update is pointless. They should have kept the 3070 ti on GDDR6 15.5 (like 2080 Super), and bumped density up to 16.

We already know why they hit the GDDR6x density wall for the 3080 Ti (but they shouldn't force that on the rest of the lineup)

Samsung of course. You don't need any official info to correctly guess that.

It's Ethereum that miners use GPUs to mine.

Scalpers and miners will care.

1. "These come in to supplant NVIDIA's previous category leaders RTX 3080 and RTX 3070" ---- Meaning same MSRP as the GPUs they are "supplanting"?

2. "updating and increasing their performance" ---- if it's 5% more perf for the same MSRP, then fine(still overpriced) but.........

3. "so as to better compete with AMD's RDNA2-powered RX 6900 XT and RX 6800 XT" ----- Really? 5% more can make a difference?(i don't care about the 1% that "needs" 12GB ram)

Jensen also loves it, dude sells everything he managed to make and people are thirsty for more. Right now are the best times for chip manufacturers, when they basically don't even compete anymore and know that anything will sell. People bought out even GT 730s. If I were him, I would raise MSRP by two times and milk cards for as long as I could. And once gpu shortage is over I would just blame scalpers to avoid backlash from gamers.

If you were talking to me no. I won't buy a card for $1,000 to $3000 dollars. Hopefully my 2070 Super will hold out until cards are plentiful again in a few years.

Its derived from the same GA102 powering the RTX 3090 which unfortunately is still 8nm (actually a 10nm).

I've written off this generation's GPU, whether its AMD or Nvidia, and I think everyone should know the outcome of the "launch". Its going to be no stock, and crazy price.
64KIt's Ethereum that miners use GPUs to mine.
Whether its Bitcoin, Ethereum of any cryptocurrency, they are all correlated. Since they have no underlying value on their own, most if not all crypto are pegged to the value of Bitcoin since its got the highest in value. Its unlikely that Bitcoin drops and not affect value of other crypto negatively. Its just the proportion of the drop and increase may differ.

tbh I don't expect it to be any different at the beginning of the next generation of GPUs. It's going to be a few years before the fabs being built right now can come online. I feel bad for any gamer that needs to upgrade right now.

I hate :banghead: them :banghead: been trying to buy a GPU for months just today i bought a NEW sealed ASUS RTX 2060 for 630 cash, lol not sleeping today because of the overpay i payed but i had too i couldn't find any GPUs anywhere i built a system after so many years from my old system waiting for this moment and got stuck for 3 weeks couldn't use it no GPU , so i got tired but i really wanted some thing even better but prices are crazy so went for this.
