A new rumor has surfaced about the RTX 3060 Ti and according to it, NVIDIA is planning to release it on November 17. The news comes from MyDrivers.com (via Videocardz) and according to it, the GA104 based RTX 3060 Ti is going to be launching on the 17th of November. The rumor comes soon after the full specifications for the RTX 3060 Ti were leaked and now, we have a launch date as well.
The November 17th data also coincides with the early launch roadmap. Recently, the full specifications for the RTX 3060 Ti were leaked through a public validation made within GPU-Z. According to the GPU-Z validation, the RTX 3060 Ti has 8 GB GDDR6 VRAM and 4864 CUDA cores. The specifications feature the GA104 GPU and the 3060 Ti will be the second card to feature this GPU.
The GA104-200 GPU on the NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti graphics card features 4864 CUDA Cores, 80 ROPs, a base clock speed of 1410 MHz, and a 1665 MHz boost clock. The card should deliver an effectively compute horsepower of 16.2 TFLOPs according to these specifications.

The RTX 3060 Ti will feature 8 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 256-bit bus interface. The memory clock for the GDDR6 memory is 1750 MHz or 14 Gb/s effective which rounds up a total bandwidth of 448 GB/s. The pixel and texture fillrate is at 133.2 GPixel/s & 674.3 GTexel/s respectively as seen in the benchmark.
NVIDIA’s RTX 3000 series has had a bumpy ride so far. The RTX 3090 and 3080 faced horrible launch problems and the stock went out within seconds of online availability. NVIDIA officially apologized for that and pushed back the release of RTX 3070 2 weeks to ensure better stock availability.
According to some sources, RTX 3060 Ti should see similar stock to RTX 3070. The 3060 Ti is already being distributed to retailers and very soon to reviewers.
