A massive countdown on the product website announces that the ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 4070 Ti variant will be released on January 5th. But we do wonder, launched or announced.
NVIDIA's decision to shelve the RTX 4080 12GB SKU was met with community outrage, however, the GPU will be reintroduced under a new moniker shortly. The GPU specifications of the RTX 4070 Ti will equal the 'unlaunched' model, but the pricing should be lower. The company's RTX 4070 Ti TUF Gaming OC SKU will be available for purchase, as confirmed by the shop; however, certain of the advertised features, including memory size, seem to be at odds with one another. The 16GB claimed in the title is wrong; this model will likely have 12GB of VRAM.
The AD104-400 depicted below, should be the full variant with 60 Streaming Multiprocessors active. As a result, you can use as many or up-to 7680 CUDA cores, 240 Tensor cores, and 60 ray tracing cores. TSMC's 4N custom node will be used for the AD104 GPU.
