- Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti has joined the roster of leaked Blackwell GPUs
- It’s going to purportedly use the GB203 chip that’s within the RTX 5080
- Clearly it might be a cut-down GB203, presumably with 8,960 CUDA cores
Nvidia’s next-gen GPUs are supposedly arriving at CES 2025, and we’ve simply caught a recent rumor a few new mannequin – a purported RTX 5070 Ti.
Thus far, the rumor mill has been sharing particulars concerning the RTX 5090, 5080, and 5070, so the 5070 Ti is a recent leak, coming from one of many extra common suppliers of GPU-related rumors on X, Kopite7kimi.
On this case, Kopite7kimi hasn’t posted any particulars on X, however as an alternative shared some information straight with VideoCardz.
We’re informed that the RTX 5070 Ti goes to have 8,960 CUDA cores, which might imply 70 SMs (Streaming Multiprocessors), and signifies that the graphics card will use a cut-down tackle the GB203 chip from Blackwell.
That’s the identical chip because the RTX 5080 is rumored to run with (with the GB202 being the flagship GPU for the RTX 5090 alone).
Kopite7kimi additionally claims energy utilization shall be pitched at 300W for the RTX 5070 Ti, but it surely isn’t clear what metric the talked about determine could be (TGP or TDP). At any fee, that is solely hypothesis, so season it liberally.
There’s no information offered about clock speeds at this level, or the essential video reminiscence loadout. The RTX 5070 has been rumored to run with 12GB of VRAM prior to now, worryingly, however different gossip has recommended {that a} higher-tier variant – like a 5070 Ti or Tremendous – might run with extra (to the tune of 18GB).
Evaluation: The ever-swirling rumors round Blackwell
It’s definitely attention-grabbing to see the RTX 5070 Ti popping up in leaks now.
It stays unclear if, as per unique rumors, Nvidia would possibly simply launch a pair of Blackwell GPUs at CES 2025, the RTX 5090 and 5080 – or whether or not Workforce Inexperienced would possibly simply squeeze in one other mannequin, such because the RTX 5070, as is already rumored. Or maybe this RTX 5070 Ti is a risk? We doubt it, on steadiness, and Kopite7kimi couldn’t be drawn to touch upon that hypothesis (VideoCardz did pose the query).
If the core depend talked about is appropriate, it’d be a 16% uplift on the RTX 4070 Ti (as was earlier than Nvidia discontinued that mannequin). Earlier leaks across the RTX 5070 have recommended its core depend might be comparatively low – a 6,400 CUDA core depend has been talked about prior to now, for instance – and so that appears a bit shakier in mild of this newest leak.
It’d be a reasonably hefty leap from the 5070 to 5070 Ti if that was the case, a extra pronounced leap than with their predecessor graphics playing cards – though that might be Nvidia’s plan. Both that, or the earlier RTX 5070 hypothesis is off the mark.
