NVIDIA today announced the launch of the GTX 1070 Ti. The card, which has been the subject of leaks and rumors for several weeks, is NVIDIA’s first major response to AMD’s RX Vega line, designed to go head-to-head with the RX Vega 56, and give Vega 64 a run for its money in terms of price-to-performance in many games.
Compared to the GTX 1070, the 1070 Ti increases the GPU core count from 1920 to 2432 — 128 shy of the GTX 1080 — and raises the base clock frequency to the GTX 1080’s 1607 MHz. The 1070 Ti’s stock boost clock remains the same as the 1070, however, at 1683 MHz, although NVIDIA’s Pascal based cards have been shown to easily exceed this rated maximum clock speed. Other changes between the 1070 and 1070 Ti include an increase in texture units from 120 to 152 and a jump in TDP from 150 to 180 watts.

The GTX 1070 Ti Founders Edition is launching at $449, which puts it $100 above the current MSRP of the 1070 and $50 higher than the RX Vega 56. The GTX 1080 and 1070 first launched at $599 and $379 but saw a price drop in late February to $499 and $349, respectively.
EVGA’s GTX 1070 Ti Launch Lineup
The GTX 1070 Ti launch will of course include dozens of options from NVIDIA’s partners, but we have some specifics to share from EVGA. The GPU maker is launching with four 1070 Ti models:
EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti GAMING
EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti SC GAMING Black Edition
EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti FTW2
EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti GAMING HYBRID
Following the pattern of EVGA’s other Pascal-based releases, the 1070 Ti GAMING features a basic blower-style cooler, the SC model features ACX 3.0 cooling, and the FTW 2 version includes EVGA’s ICX cooling system. The HYBRID model utilizes a self-contained, all-in-one 120mm water cooler.
Pricing is not yet known for every model, but we’ve learned that the base GAMING edition will start at $469 and the FTW2 will carry a $489 MSRP. For comparison, the FTW2 version of the GTX 1070 is currently priced at $480 (expect prices to change once 1070 Ti stock hits the market) while the GTX 1080 FTW2 is $600.
GTX 1070 Ti Availability
NVIDIA is doing things a bit differently for the 1070 Ti launch. Although today (October 26th) marks the official “launch date,” actual product availability and performance benchmarks won’t land until next Thursday, November 2.
Aside from the advertised specifications, we therefore having nothing more to share at this time in terms of benchmarking or performance analysis, but rest assured that we’ll have our complete coverage ready to go as soon as we get our hands on these new cards.
Imagine if you
Imagine if you will:
1030
1030ti – don’t think this one exists with a different name(but I could be wrong)
1050
1050ti
1060
1060ti – (seriously, they flubbed the naming on these two, 3GB should be 1060, 6GB should have been the Ti)
1070
1070ti
1080
1080ti
TitanX
TitanXp – i’m sure they kicked around the idea of calling it the TitanXTi, but imo “GTX TitanXp” looks a whole lot less silly than “GTX TitanXTi”
There are GTX 1080s with
There are GTX 1080s with street prices starting at $500.
I hate when companies force
I hate when companies force these tiered NDAs. I guess they want people to preorder it before proper reviews are out.
How long before we find out
How long before we find out there is some firmware lock on these that prevent overclocking?
Ars already mentioned that
Ars already mentioned that you can still OC it.
Seems like it is just out of the box-OC Nvidia forbade the AIBs from doing.
Can you point me to the GTX
Can you point me to the GTX 1070 for $349? I guess the real question will be if the GTX 1070 Ti are actually going to be priced at $449?
Founders Edition 1070 Ti
Founders Edition 1070 Ti available for pre-order on Nvidia’s website at $449
Mine just shipped 10pm 1st
Mine just shipped 10pm 1st (last night, newegg). $499 for the 1070 Ti FTW2 iCX EVGA. So at least no gouging going on yet…LOL. Nice of egg to jump the gun with shipping (already moved twice, lands friday).
Where are these $349 GTX
Where are these $349 GTX 1070? I can’t find any under $400 and most are $450+?
Why they didnt release this
Why they didnt release this with ddr5x is beyond me…
When comparing performance vs
When comparing performance vs price, would it be best to pay the additional $50 to upgrade from a GTX 1070ti to the performance of a GTX 1080?

unless the GTX 1070ti becomes an overclocking monster.

The exact model I bought in 1080 version is $80 more both from newegg pricing.
