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.

matarI 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.
I too feel your pain, but this is exactly why they keep getting away with their prices, thank you for contributing to the issue. :(

Fun fact.

The first 3 minutes it's gonna be cheaper than a 3060 which is currently 850 euros here in the netherlands.

And a free pro tip:

One does not simply buy a CPU without iGPU in 2021/2022/2023.

Imagine PCMR all boasting about their igpus

I thought the new release will have limited hash rate and not desirable by the miners?

I'll surely get ready to be glad I have a 3070 and not a 3070 Ti which is the same thing except sporting the hot mess that is GDDR6X.

Still, half hashrate of 118 is 3070 level and they go by 1500eur in EU.

We shall see on long-term mining demand.

Since 2016, every single new card release always gets rushed for the first few months. (Bot-investors want to get their money's worth.) But Normally after that supply exceeds demand (unless you have a mining rush on the cards)

Nvidia page is saying the 3070 Ti is 290w TDP, so i do not believe it is based on GA104 after all, doing some math a fully unlocked GA104+GDDR6X should have kept to 220w if not less than based on 6X's power reductions at same consumption.

Given that its also on the same length boards as the 3080, i suspect its a further cut back GA102 :|

Interesting conclusion. We won't know for sure until someone reviews it and does a teardown.

Even jacking up the gpu and going 200GB/s harder on the memory, i estimate 250w with a GA104 part,

Another reason to suspect its GA102 is the PCB appears to be similar to that of the RTX 3080 with the angled 12pin power header, on a hybrid between the 3070 and 3080 cooler.

Those points are only a guess until an actual sample is disassembled and the die identified.
