Nvidia graphics card rumors are again on the menu, as the primary leaks surrounding the brand new RTX 5070 Ti gaming GPU have surfaced. If this rumor is true, the 5070 Ti is getting an honest enhance in energy over its predecessor, the RTX 4070 Ti.
The Ti fashions have gone by the wringer with the RTX 40-series. Initially slated to be the 4080 12GB, the primary one was quietly “unlaunched” after which rebranded because the RTX 4070 Ti. This card was shortly overshadowed a few 12 months later, as Nvidia launched the RTX 4070 Tremendous, which we’ve classed as the most effective graphics card for many.
This newest leak comes from well-known leaker Kopite7kimi (by way of VideoCardz), and claims that the brand new GPU would clock in with 8,960 CUDA cores and a 300W TDP. This appears like a step under the RTX 4080, which is available in at 9728 CUDA cores and 320W, but it surely ought to be famous that it’s additionally prone to include a lot quicker GDDR7 VRAM. That is additionally a step up from the RTX 4070 Ti Tremendous, which has 8,448 CUDA cores.
Nevertheless, the leaked specs pass over key info, together with how a lot reminiscence will likely be fitted to the RTX 5070 Ti as customary. The RTX 5070 is allegedly deliberate to launch with 12GB, which stirred the hornet’s nest on-line when the knowledge leaked. Consensus is slowly solidifying across the want for no less than 16GB to be definitely worth the improve or cash as video games get extra demanding.
Kopite7kimi additionally leaked that the 5070 Ti is deliberate to be constructed on the identical die because the RTX 5080, GB203. The rumored CUDA core distinction places the 5080 at 20% extra cores, at 10,752. Whereas it’s apparent that the lower-end card can be weaker, Nvidia’s pricing will finally decide its success.
The maligned 4070 Ti was initially launched in 2023 for $799, which was deemed too costly for what it was offering, particularly with simply 12GB of VRAM. Let’s hope the RTX 5070 Ti a minimum of comes with 16GB of VRAM and a half-reasonable worth.
Nvidia is predicted to announce the main points of its upcoming RTX 5000 GPU vary at CES 2025 in January. We’ll hopefully discover out then if the worth of upgrading to get the most recent updates on options similar to Nvidia DLSS will likely be price it.
