I still don’t understand why the 1070 Ti exists.

 

From the looks of it, it’s just a 1080 with GDDR5 rather than GDDR5X and a slightly lower binned GP104 (the standard 1070 also has a GP104 but of an even lower bin). Sure, it is cheaper ($100 difference when comparing Founder Edition GPUs) but if you can find deals, isn’t it better to just spend the little extra on a 1080?

 

I don’t think the card itself sucks. It’s not a bad one at all. But what exactly is the point?

Cash grab for sure, it's entirely unnecessary and a waste just get a 1080 or RX 56 or something. Nvidia are just being goofy now.
