All information and specifications are speculative

Like “Turing”, the launch will not include a more budget-friendly alternative, which in this case applies to a successor to the Geforce RTX 2070. Mydrivers believes that the Geforce RTX 3070 will instead enter the market one month after its higher-performing siblings, ie in October . The Geforce RTX 3060 also gets the same delay, and is rumored to be launched instead during the month of November.

By November, AMD’s upcoming “Big Navi” is also rumored to have reached the market – a strong launch season awaits.
