NVIDIA reportedly puts a new price on RTX 4070 Ti
According to multiple sources, the RTX 4070 Ti should cost at least 10% less than the cancelled RTX 4080 12GB.
To recap, the RTX 4070 Ti is a new name for the RTX 4080 12GB card, which was discontinued two months ago. NVIDIA is bringing back the same spec’d GPU but with a new name and, it appears, a new price.
According to Wccftech, NVIDIA informed board partners today that the RTX 4070 Ti will cost $799, which is $100 (11%) less than the RTX 4080 12GB. Moore’s Law is Dead mentions the same price.
Multiple Chinese sources, including Expreview and BoardChannels, now claim that the RTX 4070 Ti will be priced at 6499 RMB, which is 700 RMB less than the rumoured MSRP for the RTX 4080 12GB (or 10% less).
The RTX 4070 Ti would be twice as cheap at $799 as the RTX 4090 MSRP (which is hardly seen these days). The RTX 4070 Ti has half the memory (12GB GDDR6X), but the CUDA core specifications are less than half (7680 vs. 16384).
The only issue with the RTX 4070 Ti MSRP is that there is no Founders Edition, so finding this card at this price will be dependent on custom model availability. NVIDIA always’requests’ that board partners provide at least some non-OC models at MSRP at launch, but those cards typically sell out quickly, implying that MSRP may be very short lived.
NVIDIA and AICs, on the other hand, had an extra two months to prepare extra stock, so if these cards sell out, there is something seriously wrong with the supply.
