Today is the official launch day for the GeForce RTX 4090 and there is already a rumor that NVIDIA is setting aside its best AD102 GPUs for its successor. Reviews for the GeForce RTX 4090 are showing that the newest flagship card is formidable, to say the least. Our own Brent Justice reviewed a Founders Edition and showed that NVIDIA has made major improvements over the previous Ampere generation so a 4090 Ti could be the icing on the cake for some. This latest rumor states a roughly ten to twenty percent performance uptick over the current card.

NVIDIA has commonly had a final top-tier card but its launch within the release cycle has varied over the past few generations and it would be unlikely to be unveiled so soon with other releases on the horizon. It has also changed up its branding nomenclature since the launch of the first Turing RTX cards so it’s also possible the successor might even be the return of the Titan which was absent during the Ampere releases where the x90 line made its comeback.

Yeah, I think the only real questions are what it will be called and when will it come out. There's also another rumor that NV could be waiting for even faster memory than 24 Gbps (27?) but that rumor is coming from a questionable source.
Well I for one don't need a 4090ti given the prices of the 4090 regular here in Europe.
Will the 4090Ti's come with a pocket nuclear generator to power them?
That's my worry with them. I was happy to snag a regular 4090 today.
I was sorely tempted but I'll wait this time around.
lol! Just checked and it looks like just about everyone sold out on day 1. BB, Newegg, BHP and someone is already scalping a Zotac Orville model on Amazon.
Ebay was pretty bad yesterday at launch. Even had people posting their receipts to show they ordered the card so they can sell which is pretty bad. I was fortunate that someone on H posted a link to Gigabytes store where I could actually purchase one. BB and Newegg are a joke on release day.
Part of that makes me think - "Wow, very high demand"
and at $1500+, the other part of me thinks "Wow, they probably didn't make very many of these"
Yeah, I have a hard time believing they were able to be at full production for these, and 2 4080s as well.
