Is nvidia releasing a GTX 1070 ti?
Some days ago, I received a newsflash from a tech site which mentioned that Nvidia maybe would make a GTX 1070 ti. Today, some pictures are released on https://videocardz.com/73408/gigabyte-geforce-gtx-1070-ti-gaming-pictured . It shows pictures from a Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1070 ti with a WindForce 3X-cooler.
If you look closely to the other pictures on this site, you can see that the PCB shorter is and that the heatsink different is from the GTX1070. There are rumours that you would not be able to overclock the GTX 1070 ti. Underneath you can find the rumours about the specs of the GTX 1070 ti compared to the GTX 1070.
| GTX 1070 ti | GTX 1070 | |
|---|---|---|
| GPU | GP104 | GP104 |
| Cudacores | 2432 | 1920 |
| Teraflops | 7.8 | 5.8 |
| Coreclock | 1607MHz | 1506MHz |
| Boostclock | 1683MHz | 1683MHz |
| Memoryclock | 8Gbps | 8Gbps |
| Memory | 8GB | 8GB |
| TDP | 180W | 150W |
it will be released on November 2nd.
and no, cuda cores are usless for mining, try and get hold of an RX 580 or Vega cards for mining.
I have no idea why they are making this card as the std 1080 is similarly specked. and with the 2080 being released in early 2018. it just makes no sense.
it is called "profit over scramble" meaning that the company decide to throw in the market a slightly different product and marketing it for a higher price... gangstas...every now and then they sell you crap especially around the end of the year and the holidays... to close it with fatter pockets lol..thats my opinion
Nvidia cards are good for mining Zcash though? And yeah maybe it will make no sense but I am curious about the price you will pay for it.
