Nvidia has announced its new GeForce RTX 4070 Ti desktop GPU, which is pretty much identical to the previously announced but “unlaunched” GeForce RTX 4080 (12GB). The company had to withdraw and postpone its previously announced product because its name was confusingly similar to that of the GeForce RTX 4080 (16GB), although the two had significant differences. Customer protests and negative press surrounding its name and the potential for deliberate confusion led Nvidia to announce that it would “unlaunch” its product even after the OEMs had their products and marketing materials ready. The new GeForce RTX 4070 Ti will be available from OEM partners and Nvidia will also sell its Founders Edition graphics card directly priced at Rs. 80,000 in India. This is lower than the expected price in its previous incarnation. It costs $799 in the US, which is $100 off the previously announced price.
With identical specifications and performance data as his unfortunate predecessorthe GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is based on the Current generation Ada Lovelace architecture and should surpass the performance of the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti. It features 7,680 CUDA cores and 12GB of GDDR6X RAM on a 192-bit bus. It has a TDP rating of 285W. NVIDIA strongly promotes its DLSS 3.0 technology for game upscaling. Gaming aside, this GPU is also said to deliver 70 percent better performance in content creation applications than the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, plus twice the speed when exporting edited videos.
While Nvidia hasn’t indicated when we can expect lower-priced mainstream GeForce RTX 40-series desktop GPUs, the company also unveiled a top-to-bottom lineup of mobile GPUs during its online CES 2023 keynote. The new GeForce RTX 4090, GeForce RTX 4080, GeForce RTX 4070, GeForce RTX 4060 and GeForce RTX 4050 are said to be up to 3 times more energy efficient. Laptops based on these designs should be announced at CES and in the coming months, with flagship models in the US starting February 8th, with prices starting at US$1,999 (roughly Rs. 82,685). go on sale February 22nd.
Fifth-generation Max-Q optimization technology promises even better performance in thin and light laptops and longer battery life thanks to more granular memory power state switching.
