1070ti - Real? Thoughts? -- ON PREORDER NOW FOR NOV 2nd!

[CjMapope]

So im sure some/alot of you have read the last few days rumors of Nvidia in the works on a "1070ti"
As you can imagine it's Pascal based. It's said to sport around 2,048 CUDA cores and G5 mem.
It all started with a pic circulating (below)

Real, or Rumor?  Expected price/performance/release date/effect on prices of other GPUs? Will you trade in all your 1070's for them?

I'm not sure what the point would be.

An 1070 has 1920 cores so 2048 cores is not much of an upgrade. The 1080/1080Ti has 2560/3584 cores for comparison.

The only point I can see is if its built with 14nm technology like the 1030/1050/1050Ti while the rest of the 1000-series cards are based on 16nm fabrication. I'm not sure that slight efficiency upgrade would worth it to push a new card but who knows.

i think they are making them strickly to destroy any small chance Vega 56 had a beating the 1070/1080 ;p
They have been confirmed now by Gigabyte (inna terrible "IT" reference"), to be dropping around Halloween
I may grab one for the hell of it, it will be a Miners card for sure with G5 mem, and guaranteed it could NEVER be as bad of flop as vega atleast ;p

But I read some articles mentioned 1070ti should come with 2432 cuda cores, instead of 2048. It is just 128 cuda less than gtx 1080.

The rumored vega refresh of polaris might be equally, if not more interesting

1070Ti will be the most efficient card for mining Ethash algo. It won't be available for long after release, so catch some if you can.

My guess is that the hashrate will be around 36-38

My guess is that the hashrate will be around 36-38

If it has GDDR5X memory, it will be less than a 1080 on Ethash, so ~20-22 MH/s.

It's all rumors at this point. Others sites are claiming it has GDDR5X, specically to deter miners from buying them all, which would make sense since it's a limited run card.

My guess is that the hashrate will be around 36-38

It will be apparently built with 16nm fabrication technology so it's kind of a boring, slightly juiced up 1070 (or slightly gimped 1080 in case of GDDR5X) with nothing new.

And its power consumption will be apparently 180 watts, same as most factory overclocked 1070s.

Therefore I think it will only do 32-34 Mh/s doing Eth but being a new card will probably mean it will be overpriced for miners.

Not worth it for more than $400 for ETH. You can already get 30-31 MH/s on ETH + 50% better dual mining performance with a RX 580. Around that price it would be good for Equihash. Otherwise a 1080 gets ~570 H/s for $500.

I don't think many people would buy this for Eth anyway considering its state and direction. And for other algos it will be probably bad in terms of price/performance with its initial cost but who knows.

If that is the case, then it is better than 1080 for many mining.

14nm is just a different fab (Samsung). It doesn't necessarily have any better density. The name of a node is mostly marketing fluff at this point

Not density but better power efficiency.

It would be really weird to release it now, i mean isn't the next generation coming soon? why noy just buy the 2070 instead
If its going to be mining specific then that would make at least some sense, keep the miners on the old gen and have the gamers go to the new gen

[david4boise]

That looks like a typo that accidentally got on the box

[Dlugina23]

I will buy next gtx 2070 or gtx 2080.

[phundred]

I wish to get gtx 2070 or gtx 2080 too 

But I think it wouldn't be available in 2017, maybe in the first quarter of 2018.

 The current NVidia roadmap as I recall is saying "1H 2018" for their 10xx refresh (might be 20xx but I'd bet more likely 11xx series nomenclature).
