NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Leak Tips More VRAM, Cores, and Power Draw

It's an open secret by now that NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5000 series GPUs are on the way, with an early 2025 launch on the cards. Now, preliminary details about the RTX 5070 Ti have leaked, revealing an increase in both VRAM and TDP and suggesting that the new upper mid-range GPU will finally address the increased VRAM demand from modern games. According to the leak from Wccftech, the RTX 5070 Ti will have 16 GB of GDDR7 VRAM, up from 12 GB on the RTX 4070 Ti, as we previously speculated. Also confirming previous leaks, the new sources confirm that the 5070 Ti will use the cut-down GB203 chip, although the new leak points to a significantly higher TBP of 350 W. The new memory configuration will supposedly run on a 256-bit memory bus and run at 28 Gbps for a total memory bandwidth of 896 GB/s, which is a significant boost over the RTX 4070 Ti.

Supposedly, the RTX 5070 Ti will also see a bump in total CUDA cores, from 7680 in the RTX 4070 Ti to 8960 in the RTX 5070 Ti. The new RTX 5070 Ti will also switch to the 12V-2x6 power connector, compared to the 16-pin connector from the 4070 Ti. NVIDIA is expected to announce the RTX 5000 series graphics cards at CES 2025 in early January, but the RTX 5070 Ti will supposedly be the third card in the 5000-series launch cycle. That said, leaks suggest that the 5070 Ti will still launch in Q1 2025, meaning we may see an indication of specs at CES 2025, although pricing is still unclear.

Update Dec 16th: Kopite7kimi, ubiquitous hardware leaker, has since responded to the RTX 5070 Ti leaks, stating that 350 W may be on the higher end for the RTX 5070 Ti: "...the latest data shows 285W. However, 350W is also one of the configs." This could mean that a TBP of 350 W is possible, although maybe only on certain graphics card models, if competition is strong, or in certain boost scenarios.

Pricing will probably be through the roof.. but I still want one :D

My last two GPU's were Ti's, might as well keep it going :laugh:

Edit:

Aim for medium!! :rockout:

Man these things will be atrociously underpowered compared to their predecessors, 6% more shaders lol.

I don't want any. Better is to wait for the first 2nm GPU which should come with significant performance upgrades.
RTX 4000 series were on 4nm, this is still on the old 4nm.

Hard pass.

Nvidia is known for being very scrooge about giving necessary VRAM amounts. Its history is full with failures. 3.5 GB VRAM, 8 GB when the minimum was 12 GB, RTX 4080-12 which was cancelled after the pressure from the gamers, and now this.
You continue to buy the junk, they continue to milk you cruel.

Let’s see the price first. And also a 16GB 5070 non Ti/Super. It’s time for nVidia to bring x60 back to 12GB. Even for $330. x50 can stay 8GB.

if 70Ti is $800, it’s gonna be a hard sell unless it’s a huge performance leap.

If 70Ti is 800, it will no longer be on my radar. I demand bargains!:)

I think they are just moving up a notch from the 4070ti Super.

"Coming to a store near you for ONLY $999!" lol. People are going to be walking out very happy with their newly discounted 4070Ti SUPER instead.

As always the actual interesting thing is price/performance, and I'm fully assuming the next gen will not be good at that.

It means that 5070Ti will smoke 4070Ti.

And many of the comments in this thread are from guys running AMD GPU's lol..

Eh, I'm hoping Intel release a B980 ~20GB card with 4080 specs, but ~50% cheaper than the 4080.

The question is how much faster is a Blackwell execution unit vs. an Ada execution unit ;)

Not much, IPC doesn't change a whole lot with GPUs, a couple of single digit % at most. But even if it was something crazy like 15-20% it would still be underwhelming.

And then Nvidia will probably add another 3-5% more shaders with the super version.

I would sure hope so, as for commenters using AMD GPU's, I think that says something, people got tired of getting screwed on x70/x70Ti cards. I expect this card to be at least $800 USD, maybe even $900 because they can and people will still buy it.

Nope, 5nm, the process is named N4, but it's TSMC 5nm nodes

RTX 5000 is rumoured to use 5nm N4P, it's very similar to N4, little improvements, but yes still 5nm.
Just keep in mind it's 5nm for Ada lovelace don't fall into their marketing schemes lol like intel 7 being 10nm

I don't feel like I got screwed. I feel like money doesn't buy what it used to though.

Best on leaked specs, below is what I expect regarding 4K raster performance (We don't know specs regarding GB205, the below performance forecast is based on the assumption that RTX 5070 is full GB205 and GB205 has the same config as 4070Ti but with higher clock and 28Gbps vs 21Gbps memory (still 192bit bus), RTX 5060Ti is GB205 based (cutdown) with also 12GB GDDR7 and 192bit bus, I even included MSRPs which is risky, overall I'm not too optimistic)

The 3070 Ti to 4070 Ti to be fair was dropping from 7nm to 5nm on top of 25% more cores and 50% faster clocks. I doubt Blackwell (5070 Ti) comes close to that type of performance jump especially on a similar node.

350w TBP predicted! My RX7900 XTX has 355w TBP & but of course with 24GB Vram, until everyone sees actual real world reviews, its all just speculation as usual.

Yeah, maybe... until I just bought an Intel dGPU this morning! :laugh:
