Nvidia might Release GeForce GTX 1070 Ti
Nvidia has a pretty strong lineup ever since last year, and with the recent Vega release from AMD we do not expect massive movements with new products this year. However the one product series that could see a bit of a boost would be the GTX 1070. It is now rumored that a GTX 1070 Ti is in the works.
Now, I am naming the product Ti but really it might be called a 1070 LE as well. 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.
The one reason for 1070 Ti to spawn would be Vega 56, as that card certainly is appealing for many and sits on top of the 1070. There might be some merit to this rumor as well as the fact that the Christmas season is slowly coming, it is expected that Nvidia will bring something new to the table.

well, they can do whatever they want for as long as they want now that there's officially no competition. AMD showed their hand and they were bluffing.
Well actually they'd fish in the Vega56 waters with it, no? Trying to compete? Although I though that they refreshed the 1070 like they did with the 1080 with the GDDR5X upgrade, which I personally would have found sufficient for Pascal lineup.
The market works best when there's always a better choice available if you are willing to put in a bit more money. If you need to invest 150 more, it's a lot and many customers wouldn't, but if you only need to dig your wallet for less than hundred bucks more, it doesn't feel as impossible. On the other hand at this point it won't cost Nvidia anything extra to actually manufacture the 1070Ti GPU. With the rising VRAM costs there's pressure to increase the video card prices throughout the whole range, which means 1080 would be out of the question for more people, but this speculative 1070Ti might still be within their means.
Not to mention purely marketing wise it's always important to have new products regularly.
This pretty much sums it up from a company's side of serving a market. Although I have to note, tech wise I guess they could have skipped such a release. Theoretically, they could have made a 1070 especially for miners and try to grab some of that money too if people can't get their hands on AMD's offerings.

They always compared Vega to the 1080. Where is the bluff? Get your facts straight.
Strait FACTS from AMD marketing.

So what is this gonna be? Just a 1070 with GDDR5X or will it get another SMX cluster activated too?

To be fair, even there it doesn't say anything about the 1080Ti or Volta (because under the sticker there could be the word "voltage").
The issue was that the hype was bigger than AMD's own claims for a long time, who created the hype is a different question though.

I don't see any sense to launch a GTX 1070 TI, it's understood that they want to kill Vega RX 56, but where I see there's a big gap, is between the GTX 1060 and the GTX 1070. I would buy a possible GTX 1060 TI.

That depends on the GPU one has and his budget.
After what Nvidia did with 1080Ti and Titans XPp, you should have known better.
