The RTX 4060 Ti's Performance Target is BAD!

Let's get started with Nvidia. So the lineup of their new generation of GPUs is slowly making its way out. We got the 4090 and 80 last year, and a couple of weeks ago, we got the RTX 4070 ti. And so far, we got nothing under 800$. This is mind boggling given that every past generation of GPU’s wether it is from Nvidia OR AMD, Launched with a top-tier GPU at or under 700$.
But yeah, they’re way more expensive and there's nothing new in the more reasonable price ranges.

Well, some leaks are popping up about future GPU launches. There's the 4070, which supposedly would come with 5 888 Cuda cores. a decrease of about 25% compared to the 4070 ti. We dont know anything really about the price point for this one. But I would bet 600 to 650$.
And further down the stack, there would be the RTX 4060 ti. Right now, it is rumored to feature 26% fewer Cuda cores than the 4070, so 4352. And pricing-wise, we heard that it would be sub 500$, but since all the GPU prices seem to go up, it's likely going to be something like 449, or 479.

Side note here, I really hope that the Cuda core count doesn't scale linearly for performance. Because those are some big drops from tier to tier.

Anyways, a little under 500$...so why am I talking about this? A reputable leaker on Twitter called Kopite7kimi said that the 4060 ti has a performance target of an RTX 3070. A card that is on average just 12 to 13 ish percent faster than the 3060 ti. Not only that, but the gap gets even smaller if we look at the 3060 ti with GDDR6X memory, which in itself is about 4 to 6% faster than the OG 3060 ti. So if the performance target for the 4060 ti really is a stock RTX 3070, then we’re only seeing a jump in performance of about 5 to 10%ish gen over gen? Like what?

Plus you’re going to pay more money for it than the launch price of the 3060 ti? Man, if that’s really the case, and only time will tell, then Nvidia is really down bad to sell their remaining inventory of RTX 3000 series. It seems like the RTX 4000 series is an even bigger mess than I thought it was before. What are your thoughts on this? Let me know down below!
