Gigabyte Teases GeForce GTX 1070 Ti
Now, we assume it is a 1070 as we have been taliing about that last week already. Gigabyte on its facebook posted a hint towards a new Ti model.
Industry sources claim all this, the product would get 2304 Shader cores which is a little hard to believe being so close to the 1080. It could also be the opposite and a simple 1070 with faster memory, likely 9 Gbps GDDR5. Back to facebook, the FB post shows an image with an evil clown hinting to the movie IT. Then there is a picture of a video card with the Gigabyte Aorus cooler, a wallet with money rising (one bill) with a balloon and the stylized letters "TI" opposed to "IT".
At the top of the teaser is the text "You'll float too." As a caption there is:
"Ti will get you too ... eventually ...
#comingsoon".
Possibly (even likely) the horror theme refers to an introduction date during Halloween which is Wednesday, 31 October.

If those specs are true. Bandwidth starved would be an understatement.
However it will be faster than the 56 and come close or trade blows (depending on game) with the 64. And a rumored $429 MSRP. I'll go grab my salt.

Needs 9gbps ICs if those core counts are true.
On that note, EVGA release some ICX elite 1080Ti with 12gbps memory instead of 11

I'm not waiting for the refresh because I want a bump in frequency, but because I want to let the market stabilize. Intel is going batmad right now releasing stupid products and until it releases a true new gen CPU, we don't know what price fluctuations we might have in the future. Zen may come down in price, who knows? Also 12/10/7nm, I want to skip 14nm if possible.
I don't know why Nvidia bothered, it's such a small jump from the 1070...

I already have a 1070 and I think this is great. More choices is always good. I don't understand why folks seem to be taking issue with this. It's priced in between the other two cards right where it should be. Someone building or upgrading may find it hits their sweet spot. Do folks want less choices? I don't get it.

Specs are out, RIP Vega 56, and the 64.
