NVIDIA: GeForce RTX 2070 Available October 17th

Two GeForce RTX cards have been released, yet three where announced. The cheaper RTX, or less expensive model 2070 still is awaiting an actual launch. Some expected later this month, but NVIDIA finally shared the word about it.

The GeForce RTX 2070 will be available starting October 17th. The founders edition GeForce RTX 2070 will still sell for $599, which is over two hundred bucks more expensive as the GeForce GTX 1070. AIB partners will be allowed to sell the product starting at 499 USD, however as the recent 2080 and 2080 Ti launches have shown, that is not really something that seems possible as all AIB cards match Founder edition pricing (or worse). The RTX 2070 will be based on its own TU106 chip and gets 2304 shader processors, 288 Tensor cores and 36 RT processors, all tied towards 8GB GDDR6 at 14 Gbps / 256-bit.

	GeForce RTX 2080 Ti	GeForce RTX 2080	GeForce RTX 2070
Shader cores	4352	2944	2304
Clock speed (MHz)	1350	1515	1410
Boost speed (MHz)	1545 1635 (FE)	1515 1800 (FE)	1620 1700 (FE)
Vram	11GB gddr6	8GB gddr6	8GB gddr6
Memory speed	14Gbit / s	14Gbit / s	14Gbit / s
Memory bus	352bit	256bit	256bit
Memory bandwidth	616GB / s	448GB / s	448GB / s
TDP(Watt)	250 260 (FE)	215 225 (FE)	175 185 (FE)
Price	1259 euros (FE)	849 euros (FE)	639 euros (FE)

We're very curious how the product will perform, it will have Tensor and RT cores. It is indicated that cards like the 2050 and 2060 will launch H1 next year, likely without Tensor and RT cores. Who knows, perhaps they'll be called GTX.

I've got it..... NVidias pricing is accounting for the new tariffs put into place.

They're just ahead of the proverbial pricing curve is all....

AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA...... And people scoffed when I bought four TITANs.

Japan is amazing and you'll get and experience loads of fond memories. The people are so polite that it's bad manners to even use a Mobile phone on public transport.

Tokyo @ night with ya D850 will be sweet. Just don't come home and buy a 2070 RTX to look at those pictures and you'll be fine. 2020 7nm YES PLEASE but from me Nvidia can take a running jump if they think i'm gonna buy low end card for high end money. I already phoned Scan UK to ask about availability of 1080's/1080Ti and was told to hurry if i want one because EVERYBODY seems to now want 10XX cards.
