NVIDIA May Price the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti at $799, $100 Less than the Canceled RTX 4080 12GB [Report]

NVIDIA is set to announce the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti next week during its CES 2023 keynote. Company CEO Jensen Huang is expected to take the stage and re-introduce us to the previously “un-launched” RTX 4080 12GB. Based on the AD104 die, this SKU will feature 7,680 FP32 cores across 60 SMs paired with 12GB of GDDR6X memory via a 192-bit bus. Backed by 48MB of L2 cache, it’ll boast an external memory bandwidth of 504 GB/s. (Tramadol)

Regarding gaming performance, NVIDIA’s own RTX 4080 12GB benchmarks are an excellent comparison. First-party slides indicate that the RTX 4070 Ti will trade blows with the RTX 3090 and 3090 Ti at a much tamer price point. It will also lock horns with the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT as the XTX battles the RTX 4080.

#NVIDIA’s CURRENTLY planning $799 for the 4070 Ti MSRP…

However it's worth mentioning they did briefly consider $899, and I really wouldn't be surprised if they changed their minds again.

Either way expect some AIBs to charge well over MSRP if it “starts” close to or at $799.

Till now, most rumors have claimed a price point of $849 to $899 for the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti, roughly the same as that of the RTX 4080 12GB. However, Moore’s Law is Dead claims that NVIDIA is currently planning an MSRP of $799, a notable $100 reduction from the initial announcement. We’ll ask around to check if this tip this info is solid and update you soon.
