Description:
Nividas purported RTX 4070 Ti Super graphics card may not be coming after
all, it seems.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
Nvidia might only be bringing two graphics card refreshes to the table early next year, or thats the latest chatter from the grapevine.
Okay, with all of this including the original rumor that therell be three revamped Lovelace cards we need to be very cautious.
But the latest nugget, which comes from leaker Harukaze5719 on X (formerly Twitter), claims that a Korean retailer has asserted that only an RTX 4070 Super and 4080 Super will be coming. One Korean seller confirmed RTX 40
Super. But he only confirmed 4070 Super and 4080 Super.Just for naming,

This means the theoretical refresh sitting between those two products, the purported RTX 4070 Ti Super, has either been abandoned by Nvidia in the final stages of preparation, or was never a candidate in the first place.
Thats the only info the retailer divulged, and nothing was provided in terms of the specs of these offerings which will theoretically be vying for a place on our list of the best graphics cards and hopefully doing better than the RTX 4080 . Analysis: A believable change of tack
Of course, we are being asked to take the word of one leaker (or rather, a retail source) over the previous contentions of other leakers and their sources.
However, weve always wondered about the likelihood of a trio of refreshed graphics cards in this upper mid-range to high-end space two makes more
sense to us (at least initially). And moreover, weve always been skeptical on the rather absurd (we reckon) idea of chucking both the Super and Ti suffixes into the name.
Thats not something Nvidia has done before, nor is it something that should
be done in our opinion. Mainly because it seems confusing, and tantamount to admitting Nvidia has made a mistake with how it has pitched Lovelace GPUs in this bracket (because to have to jam in such a name clearly wasnt planned).
So, if the RTX 4070 Ti Super didnt happen, that wouldnt surprise us. As
noted, though, it could still be happening
Whatever is the case in reality, we shouldnt have long to wait until we find out. Nvidia has apparently planned a special event for CES 2024 just like last year where we saw the launch of the 4070 Ti (and laptop GPUs) and the new Lovelace products, whatever they may be, will surely be unveiled here.
