NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 4070 Ti graphics cards don't launch until the first week of January but a Serbian store is already selling them to buyers.
Serbian Store Already Selling NVIDIA's Upcoming GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Graphics Cards For $1400 US
The graphics card that has been listed by this particular Serbian retailer is the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Gaming variant which comes with a triple-slot and triple-fan solution. This card has a pricing of 172229 RSD which includes VAT and converts to around $1550 US. The retailer is also giving away a small discount of 10% to users who are paying in cash and the pricing falls down to $1400 US.
This is still much higher than the MSRP of even the RTX 4080 but a Serbian Redditor explains why that's the reason. It is mentioned that Serbia has a duopoly on the tech market along with greedy merchants and customs putting large duties and taxes on tech products. It is stated that the RTX 4080 retails for $1700 US (+$500 US vs MSRP) while the RTX 4090 retails for a minimum of $2500 US (+900 US vs MSRP). So this price is nowhere close to the MSRP which should be less than $1K when the actual retail embargo lifts.
Serbia isn't the only place where the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is being sold though. The MSI GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Gaming X Trio graphics cards are also in stock at retailers in Costa Rica that are ready to be sold on the launch date. The graphics cards are said to be up for pre-orders but there's currently no word on pricing however users expect that those would also be above MSRP.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 12 GB 'Official' Specifications
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti will utilize the "Ada Lovelace" AD104-400 GPU configuration with 7,680 cores or 60 SMs enabled which is the full-fat SKU. The GPU will be packing 48 MB of L2 cache and features a 192-bit bus interface so that's why we are getting up to 12 GB of GDDR6X capacities. The memory is said to be running at 21 Gbps speeds for a memory bandwidth of 504 GB/s. The card is said to be clocked at a 2610 MHz boost clock however the peak frequency will be higher.
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 12 GB "Official" TBP - 285W
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 8 GB "Official" TBP - 290W
For power, the TBP is now set to be rated at 285W which is a 35W decrease versus the RTX 3080 10 GB model and a 5W decrease from the RTX 3070 Ti. The new graphics card is expected to offer better performance than the RTX 3080 but given the specs cut over the 4080 16 GB, there will be a big gap between both models of around 30-40%.
