is it clickbait tho? rumors from people who have a history of accurate leaks are worth considering when it comes to a $3000 purchase, at least for me personally
 
as for fake release dates, if the timeline says it can be ready for production launch by July, would you really be surprised? after all, it is clear the Ti PCBs will be used in the 40 series, so swapping the core and memory is not difficult. most of the lead time comes from driver r&d and pcb design. if they managed to cut most of that effort out by applying it to the 30 series Ti skus, it seems reasonable they could launch a couple months early.
 
i don't see how that's trolling at all. do most of y'all not check the videocardz posts daily? always a good skim if you're not following the direct sources on socials already

There's a couple of threads with this same discussion lol, so I already said sorry on another one, just frustrated with the click bait, and yes, I consider these click bait when the titles often make claims like '40 series release in July!!!' then the content tones it way down. That's pretty much what click bait is. I don't check videocardz.com/newz daily, or wccftech, mainly because so often they can be wildly inaccurate, at least until the 'real' release date comes closer. I would be very surprised if the 4090 is released in July. Very. I believe the chips are different between the 4090, 4080 and 4070 this time, rather than having the same chip with restrictions, and in my mind having different chips may end up delaying things. Time will tell though.
 

I concur that as we inch closer to each cycle, clickbait bonanza like clockwork happens.  I will stick with their usual dates that at end up being in the fall.

Well darn

Well now that weekend 3090 Ti FTW3 purchase feels more justified.  Don't think I would have made the plunge since there's likely no way to (easily) put it in an open loop

At this rate it will be released right before the 4090 launches. 🤣🤬

Good thing I got my 3090 ti ftw3. 😎

i thought you had the xc3 black? or did you trade up?
 
yeah i pondered getting the HOF in motion earlier but i think i'm just going to scrap the Ti altogether and wait for 40 series. i have some more things to bench here and can go harder on my 3090. almost time to start selling zen3/12th gen stuff for zen4/raptor lake

oh ok, for some reason i thought the black were xc3. nice nice

Somehow I feel like evga is running into some issues with the kpe if it hasn't been released yet.

will evga release a fcwb for this card, or no?

31 of us signed up in the Q and at least 1/2 of us are probably going to pass. In contrast,
the 3090 KPE had 150 cards signed up in 60 seconds before they pulled the plug. All the cards on display on Social media lately have no coolers, so maybe that Asetec pump and 360 ain't cutting it. Left side VRM is 25% more on the board. From Lummi's videos it doesn't look like the thermals are really that extreme, we will see .

I want a binned Ti KP chip that will perform well above average.  That's providing it's not over $2299.  And at that price, it's still 50/50.  If they make it $2099, I will likely bite since 4090 will be in high demand.  If/when AMD releases something very competitive early, or reputable leaks, than all bets are off.  I think nVidia's timetable will be pushed up with a Ti or Titan card.  Then, hold off on the plain jane 4090. 
I was surprised the 3090KP was released so early.  They needed to start binning chips early and tier the bins appropriately for black, gaming, ultra, ftw, ftw ulta, and now ti/ti kp.  I assume that's the reason why some models are scarce since they can get more money steering the chip to the higher tier product.  Sadly, everything is a money grab for share holder profit.  We're just pawns for our addiction.

oh yeah what does....*checks notes* Vince Lucido? know about it ;)

so second week of June @ 2269 $ was my original thoughts, I wonder if they wait until they ship to release any specs.

Don't forget gents, 4000 KP won't be released right away.  They always come 3-6 months after all the previous SKUs.  How long will it take for them to have stock and release it?  1st quarter 2023 or longer?  How bad will the shortages be for each SKUs?  Will it be worse or the same as 3000?  Say, are you willing to wait a year from now for a 4000 KP?

Just a thought of probabilities that should be taken to account.

Yes it did but in many other releases that wasn't the case.  Maybe it will come sooner this time around but regardless, it is always limited and others will wait months for one.

Agree with this 100%. You know the old saying: a graphics card in hand beats a faster graphics card trapped inside of a pandemic-locked-down factory in Shanghai.
