The price, specs, and release date for the Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti have been revealed, and here’s how it compares to the RTX 3080 Ti.
Information regarding the price, specs, and release date comes via a leaked slide that is allegedly from tomorrow’s CES 2023 presentation, in which Nvidia states that the RTX 4070 Ti is faster than RTX 3090 Ti.
Based on the leaked presentation slide, the RTX 4070 Ti will be priced $400 less than the RTX 4080. The card will offer 40 TFLOPs of single precision compute performance at the MSRP of $799. As for its release date, Nvidia’s slide confirms that the RTX 4070 Ti will be available beginning from January 5, 2023. The GPU manufacturer is set to officially reveal the card during its CES 2023 presentation, which begins several hours later.

The GeForce 40 series is a family of graphics processing units developed by Nvidia, succeeding the GeForce 30 series. The RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 were released on October 12 and November 16, respectively, following the series’ announcement on September 20, 2022, at the GPU Technology Conference (GTC) 2022 event. The third-generation RT cores and fourth-generation Tensor Cores from Nvidia are used in the cards, which are based on the Ada Lovelace architecture and offer hardware-accelerated raytracing (RTX). On January 3, 2023, NVIDIA reintroduced the cancelled 4080 12GB as 4070 Ti while reducing its price by $100. A number of mobile GPUs were released as well.
Given previous Nvidia GPU generations and the significant difference in performance and specifications compared to the 16 GB card, numerous publications, well-known YouTubers, reviewers, and the community criticized Nvidia for calling the 12 GB RTX 4080 an RTX 4080 rather than an RTX 4070 when it was first announced. It was implied by the names RTX 4080 12GB and RTX 4080 16GB that the only distinction between the two products was their VRAM capacities.
