After a myriad of leaks over the last few weeks, Nvidia has finally confirmed the launch of the latest 40 series GPU, the RTX 4070. The graphics card will be available on April 13th, following the launch of the RTX 4070 Ti on January 5th, 2023.
The RTX 4070 will have an MSRP of $599 / £589 and will feature the same Ada Lovelace architecture as the previous 40 series releases. Additionally, AI-accelerated performance will feature in the form of DLSS 3.
The announcement comes after weeks of speculation and unconfirmed leaks, which included slides and graphics that showed the 4070's performance and specs. No official word had come from team green on the matter, but Nvidia finally listed the 4070 on its website today, complete with an introductory article. The GeForce UK Twitter account also broke radio silence today when it said:

These specs definitely put it in a competitive market position for the price, and with the aid of DLSS 3, will certainly boost it to the realms of the best graphics cards on the market.
A few vendors, including MSI, Gigabyte, and Zotac have either had models listed early or leaked, with some images showing three internal fans that resemble the look of the 4070 Ti. The Founder's Edition, however, seems to only have two fans and connects via one PCIe 8-pin cable. Other models may use two of these or a PCIe Gen 5 cable.
