Packaging leak suggests the most ridiculous Nvidia GPU name is actually happening

pcgamer.com:

Leaks of Nvidia's RTX 40-series Super refreshes have been appearing ever more frequently but now we appear to have confirmation that one rumour we'd hoped was nonsense is actually true. Yup, Nvidia is going to grace us all with the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super.

The Super moniker was first used for the RTX 20-series mid-life update, however Nvidia decided to go back to its old Ti system for the RTX 30-series (for reasons unknown). News that the Super tag was making a comeback started to appear around October, with the first model expected to be an RTX 4080 Super.

Naturally, everyone expected the RTX 4070 and RTX 4060 tiers to get Super refreshes, and further leaks seem to hint at some of this being very likely. But one thorny problem is that Nvidia already uses the Ti name in those segments, which has made people wonder exactly what an RTX 4070 refresh would be called.

A Twitter post by well-known leaker MEGAsizeGPU (as spotted via Videocardz) appears to solve the case, all Sherlock Holmes stylee. The RTX 4070 Ti refresh will be called the RTX 4070 Ti Super. No, I'm really not kidding, and that will be alongside the 4070 Super refresh.

While this has yet to be officially confirmed (and that looks like it will potentially happen at the CES 2024 event), it's now looking almost certainly true. That means, for a short while at least, you'll be able to select from a GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super, RTX 4070 Ti, RTX 4070 Super, and an RTX 4070.

The current RTX 4070 Ti and RTX 4070 both use the same AD104 GPU, with the former SKU using a full-die version of the chip and the latter housing one that has 23% fewer shaders. The RTX 4070 Ti Super is rumoured to be based on a cut-down AD103 (as used in the RTX 4080) or a seriously restricted
