AFOX files GeForce RTX 40 and Radeon RX 7000 series
The PC hardware business has submitted practically every Radeon RX 7000 SKU and GeForce RTX 40 SKU to EEC. This doesn't imply both lineups will be offered at once; rather, it implies that AFOX is ready to launch any feasible SKU.
AFOX's EEC filings only mention graphics card models, not bespoke designs. This tells us what AFOX anticipates to be included in both next-gen lineups. For AMD Radeon RX 7000 series, AFOX anticipates a replacement for every RDNA2 desktop model, including RX 7900XT or 7500XT. The same applies to GeForce RTX 40 series, which even has Ti variations mentioned. The new TITAN is absent, but NVIDIA was unlikely to give it to board partners to modify.
RDNA3 and Ada GPUs should arrive in the fourth quarter. AMD and NVIDIA are preparing new series with partners. AFOX is ready for any scenario or SKU modification. The firm sells Radeon RX 6000 and GeForce RTX 30 cards, however they're rarely sold outside China.

To be honest I wish Nvidia would do a Ti version for each gpu, and same for AMD. I think it would allow much better gpu segmentation in the market.
GPU naming schemes have been trash for years.

Wasn't that the xx70 models of some HD4000 to HD7000 you are refering to? 5770, 6770, 6790,7790.
Or the Rx XX5, like the RX 285
or the XTX

Indeed offering various models is most often a good thing, but this depends on the scalability of the architecture in the case of GPUs. I assume that the manufacturers realized when launching the current generation, that it is pointless to offer that many products because they will not have sufficient stock in any case, so the focus was clearly on the higher end models to gain profit. I certainly welcome the RX 7700, though like the article states it is not 100 % sure to happen. It just might be a 400 € GPU at maximum, unlike the RX 7700 XT which could very well be 500 €.
I'm not sure if I agree that there should be a Ti variant of every GeForce card, but sure it would be great for the lower end models; from 500 € downwards it would serve the customers' interest. Usually those who buy the very high end don't really care that much, they just check the performance level and buy based on that, but I guess more variants even there doesn't hurt (the customer). In the end availability, demand, competition, quality of yield and also the mentioned architectural scalability determine together how many products there will be. Certainly this news point to greater availability.

I'm happy to see also a Ti variant of RTX 4060 from Nvidia and surprised to see even heavier segmentation from AMD in the form of RX 7700 (non-XT). Remains to be seen if they hold from releasing the lesser models till next year, which I certainly hope is not the case, though if they have a large stock of current models then they will likely hold. Possibly the stock will not exist though since now prices are slowly normalizing and people who have waited for a long time will buy a new card instead of waiting before late Q4 - that's the human nature. Also not everybody is a tech oriented buyer who follows product cycles.
