Yeaaaah, lets just see if there's stock first eh? Oh and there's nothing stupid transpiring like drivers/bios/capacitor-gate, gimping the last .5GB of RAM etc.

stock wont happen until next year and that is still up in the air btw
seems safer to buy amd big dog navis

It will be the kryptonite in the nvidia saga if AMD get enough stock into the bays while Jensen's fab is trickling them out.

a 3070 Ti offering 90% performance of 3080 with 10GB Vram G6X priced £100-£125 less than the 3080 would be a great sub £500 card..if true.

It won't be that much cheaper than a 3080, the card you describe is a dead cert for the £569-£599 price mark (FE prices) Nvidia isn't going to give you 90% of the performance of a 3080, for £500.

A RETURN OF 3070 Ti BUT USING CUT DOWN GA102...
https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-allegedly-preparing-ga102-150-gpu-with-7424-cuda-cores

IF this is true, are Nvidia scared of the 6700/6800xt therefor a full fat GA104 isn't enough to compete with?

Also, I'm betting yields are better on further cut down GA102's as opposed to full fat GA104's...

a 3070 Ti offering 90% performance of 3080 with 10GB Vram G6X priced £100-£125 less than the 3080 would be a great sub £500 card..if true.

Haha.. using x02 dies for 3070 SKU, leather jackets plush margins are going in the toilet..
I don't feel he'd name it 3070 ti though, a 3080 antisuper looks more likely..

Moreover, this hints at the possibility of GA101, now that would be sweet.

They were happy to give 980 Ti 97% the performance of Titan X for £450-£500 less. I'd be surprised if it was more than £549.99.

Let's hope for good prices on the 3070 ti and a good amount of vram.

muon · 26 Oct 2020 at 20:35

Aren't the 3070 reviews out tomorrow? Sill no large leaks.

crazy8s · 26 Oct 2020 at 20:54

Yep

+/-5% of a 2080Ti

It doesn't make sense it's that good. I think 10% below the 2080 Ti.

The 3080 has 47% more shaders and is 32% better than the 2080 Ti at 4K.

It would suggest there is quite a big bottleneck somewhere in Ampere to have such poor scaling.

NVIDIA preparing GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with 9984 CUDA cores? https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-preparing-geforce-rtx-3080-ti-with-9984-cuda-cores

Kopite7kimi, a leaker better known for revealing details on GeForce RTX Ampere series months in advance is now reporting on a new SKU that would fill the (already narrow) gap between GeForce RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 SKUs.

The graphics card would allegedly feature 9984 CUDA cores, 1280 cores more than RTX 3080. Kopite reports that the GPU variant on this SKU is likely the GA102-250. The memory configuration would also change to a 384-bit bus (compared to 320-bit on RTX 3080). A wider bus means that the card will likely feature a capacity of either 12 GB or 24 GB (same as RTX 3090).

Just a rumour of course, but I can see Nvidia releasing something to counter Big Navi if it turns out better than they expected.

I wonder if used 2080Ti's will drop to near pre-3080-release levels again once the 3070 is out (stock levels not withstanding). Will have more OC headroom and an extra 3GB of memory as a bonus.

Well apart from the UK, most of the rest of the world 2080tis are currently only £600.
