The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti will carry the same MSRP as the GeForce RTX 3080 (12 GB), according to a number of reports today that claim the new graphics card, which is expected to be announced very soon, will cost $799.
The pricing stems from the latest information received by AICs, according to one report…
NVIDIA likes to keep the pricing of its GPUs close to itself before launch and some AICs had already started taking orders at an MSRP of $899 from some of their channel partners. However, they have been informed today that the tentative launch date is now $799 and the difference will be adjusted for existing orders.
…while another from EXPReview has suggested that the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti will launch for 6,499 yuan in China ($~930 USD):
Bobantang said that it has received information about the latest pricing of the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti graphics card from Nvidia. The starting price is 6,499 yuan, which is a certain gap from the previously circulated 7,199 yuan, which is a bit lower. It is rumored that the new graphics card will lift the ban on evaluation on January 4, and it will be officially released on January 5.
The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is said to feature the exact same specifications as NVIDIA’s “unlaunched” GeForce RTX 4080 (12 GB), including 7,680 CUDA cores, 12 GB of GDDR6X memory, a 2.6 GHz boost clock, and 285-watt TDP.
NVIDIA was planning on selling the GeForce RTX 4080 (12 GB) for $899 before the model was abruptly canceled.
The GeForce RTX 4070 Ti will likely be announced by NVIDIA during its upcoming GeForce Beyond event, which is slated for Tuesday, January 3, 2023, 8 a.m. Pacific Time (UTC-8).

At least there will be plenty in stock?
Just like the 4080. I wonder if they expect the 7900xt and xtx to have limited stock? if AMD can pull it off they should flood the market with the launch with a refreshed edition and some snazzy BS points or a price drip just to kick Nvidia in the pants.
But who are we kidding... we all know all of the cards will sell to ravenous consumers full of FOMO.
Good luck selling a 4070ti for $100 more than the 1080ti launched at.
Someone needs to smack some sense into these people.
I very much get this train of thought. However, I can also get behind the logic of “it performs better than a 3080 so it costs more than a 3080
Every generation of GPU's (except maybe Nvidias GeForce FX series?) has performed better than the one before it.
In the 1950's amplifiers had tubes and were large heavy and expensive. In the 1980's they had transistors, had shrunk and had many more features at a much much lower price.
In the early 1990's that big honking desktop had less processing power by orders of magnitude than the phone that is in your pocket today, and cost much more for the privilege.
There is an expectation that doing the same thing in tech eternally continues to get cheaper and cheaper over time, at least adjusted for inflation.
If it's going to go in the opposite direction and actually get more expensive, it had better be truly exceptional, and I don't think the 4070ti is.
Do we have benchmarks yet? Does the 4070ti win on cost per frame? Performance per watt?
Nvidia is probably just milking the price but I’m open to other arguments.
If it came out at the same time as a 3080, I could buy that.
But some good amount of time has past. Faster, but 3 years later, is not the same thing as faster, so worth more money.
