The Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti might be coming very soon and will be a rebadged version of the old RTX 4080 12GB model which was previously canceled. We suspect that the GPU will launch in early January.
The Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti is the newest graphics card to join the RTX 40-series lineup, and joins the already-released RTX 4090 and RTX 4080. However, the RTX 4070 Ti might actually be based on something that we have already seen before. Remember the canceled RTX 4080 12GB? Well, it is making a return in the form of an RTX 4070 Ti.
RTX 4070 Ti release date
The Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti will be officially released on January 5, 2023. At CES 2023, Nvidia announced the card would hit store shelves just a few days after its presentation.

You have to remember, the RTX 4080 12GB was unceremoniously “unlaunched” after its initial reveal. That means that it’s very likely that the majority of these graphics cards were already built and assembled ahead of Nvidia’s U-turn. That’s why Team Green will be eager to roll out the GPU again in an attempt to get another product on the market after AMD’s RX 7900 XT and RX 7900 XTX.

RTX 4070 Ti benchmark predictions
As we expected, the 4070 Ti is around the same, if not faster, than the 3090 Ti. This will allow the graphics card to sit nicely behind the RTX 4080 at around 20% slower in terms of pure rasterization performance.
Since the GPU is based on the RTX 4080 12GB, we’ve got some idea of how it will perform in games. Nvidia themselves revealed benchmarks of the upcoming graphics card, so we’re expecting that the GPU will have some pretty modest power under the hood.
RTX 4070 Ti (Prediction) | RTX 4080 | RTX 4090 | |
Microsoft Flight Simulator (4K, DLSS off) | 52 FPS | 66 FPS | 74 FPS |
A Plague Tale: Requiem (4K, DLSS off) | 42 FPS | 55 FPS | 106 FPS |
F1 2022 | 46 FPS | 57 FPS | 79 FPS |
