Nvidia has designed the GeForce RTX 2070 graphics card with its third largest silicon based on the Turing architecture, the TU106. This means that this card clearly uses a mid-range chip, and leaves the door open for a new card with a cropped version of the immediately superior chip, the TU104. This new card will be the GeForce RTX 2070Ti.

GeForce RTX 2070Ti would be on the way with TU104

Reviews released Tuesday afternoon point to the GeForce RTX 2070 offering roughly the same level of performance as the previous generation GTX 1080, at the same price. In this way, the RTX 2070 offers approximately 30% more performance than the GTX 1070, something that seems very low in contrast to the 65% more performance that the GTX 1070 offers compared to the GTX 970. This means that the jump in this generation it is approximately half that in the previous one, and there is a good explanation for it.

To fill the gap left between the RTX 2070 and the RTX 2080, a GeForce RTX 2070 Ti will be launched. This card will use TU104 silicon, as Nvidia has already maximized TU106 with the RTX 2070. The TU104 silicon features 48 transmission multiprocessors compared to the 36 featured by TU106. The company has an opportunity to offer the RTX 2070 Ti by reducing the TU104's SM unit count somewhere in between the RTX 2070 and RTX 2080, while leaving the memory subsystem untouched.

With this data, an RTX 2070Ti could arrive that is faster enough than the GTX 1070 Ti and the previous generation GTX 1080, and accumulate sales around 600-650 euros, exactly half that of the RTX 2080 Ti. What do you think of this alleged GeForce RTX 2070Ti?

Finally it seems that everything is due to a mistake by Gigabyte, for now we will not see a GeForce RTX 2070Ti.
