NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti Final Specifications Seemingly Confirmed
Thanks to kopite7kimi, we are able to finalize the leaked specifications of NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti graphics cards.
Starting off with RTX 5070 Ti, it will feature 8,960 CUDA cores and come equipped with 16 GB GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit memory bus, offering 896 GB/s bandwidth. The card is reportedly designed with a total board power (TBP) of 300 W. The Ti variant appears to use the PG147-SKU60 board design with a GB203-300-A1 GPU. The standard RTX 5070 is positioned as a more power-efficient option, with specifications pointing to 6,144 CUDA cores and 12 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 192-bit bus, with 627 GB/s memory bandwidth. This model is expected to operate at a slightly lower 250 W TBP.
Interestingly, the non-Ti RTX 5070 card will be available in two board variants, PG146 and PG147, both utilizing the GB205-300-A1 GPU. While we don't know what the pricing structure looks like, we see that NVIDIA has chosen to make more considerable differentiating factors between its SKUs. The Ti variant not only gets an extra four GB of GDDR7 memory, but it also gets a whopping 45% increase in CUDA core count, going from 6,144 to 8,960 cores. While we wait for the CES to see the initial wave of GeForce RTX 50 series cards, the GeForce RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti are expected to arrive later, possibly after RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 GPUs.

BTW I owned 8800GT and 1080 Ti too, no particular fondness of them because I just buy the next best GPU anyways
Bruh, the context is kinda important here. Me and @nguyen were bantering about chips, SKUs and potential stack performance and deltas between both current and future gen cards. We both acknowledged high pricing for incoming cards in that discussion too. Not one of us brought up price/performance as a metric. You invented an argument to go against for no reason. Chill out.
The minimum expectation for Nvidia and AMDs Next Gen "mid" perf tier GPUs is nothing short of 256-bit memory interface and 16GB of VRAM. Anything less, would once again, demonstrate a clear disregard for consumer expectations and the need to provide adequate headroom for advancing graphics performance.
Similar to how the standard 4070 was criticized as essentially a masked 4060 T/S, the 5070 appears to be little more than a disguised 5060 T/S.
Putting the 5070 and 5070 TI to the side for the mo, I was hoping to grab a possible 5070 TI SUPER somewhere in the $800 region to top my RTX 3080............ STOOOOPID WISHFUL THINKING!!
All it's about performance (per cost).
The 5070TI would be a good option. What are the chances it will be released at $500? None :( However, you make me realize that I bought my 2070 SUPER brand new $584.99 at Microcenter in 2019. If I adjust the price with inflation, it represents $724.26 today. So my request is not valid after all. Guess I'm going to have to fork out the money!
5070Ti will be very close to 4090
I estimate the price at $849, which would be a $50 increase compared to the 4070 Ti SUPER. During the launch of the 4xxx SUPER variants, Nvidia acted very reasonably, as it was their last launch in that series. Based on that, I believe Nvidia will follow a similar approach this time.
Additional reasons:
At this point, the VRAM issue, is far more than just a nuisance, it's deliberate sabotage out the gate, making sure the GPU's don't last for more than one generation.
My issue is the 5080 is heavily butchered. Even more than the 4080.
It's a joke that the 5090 gets 32GB and the second best half of it.
Most likely the greens will release a 5080Ti with 24GB but it appears the x80s are not a high end performance segment anymore (the 3080 is excluded).
