With the RTX 4070 Super released first with a relatively low price of $599, the RTX 4070 Ti Super was followed with a slightly bigger price tag of $799. The RTX 4080 Super is set to have an MSRP of $999. While still pricey, this is a dramatic reduction in asking price over the original RTX 4080 which debuted at $1199, you’re saving $200 here.
When we compared the RTX 4070 Ti Super Vs RTX 3090, we noticed quite a big price difference, with the RTX 3090 having an MSRP of $1499, a price tag which has remained relatively unchanged since its release in 2020, which is nearly twice the cost of the RTX 4070 Ti Super. That being said, the price tags of the Super series seem to be indicative of the specs we can expect to see, so although the RTX 4080 Super is set to cost more, it looks as though its performance will be worth the higher cost.

RTX 4080 Super Vs RTX 4070 Ti Super – release date comparison
In terms of the order of release, it seems Nvidia may be following the mantra: save the best for last. With the 4070 Ti Super released on January 24, the last in the Super series is set to be available to buy as of today, January 31, making it the last to be released. These three GPUs are coming two years after Nvidia’s initial release of the RTX 40 Series, which came out in November 2022.
RTX 4080 Super Vs RTX 4070 Ti Super – specs comparison
As stated above, the RTX 4080 Super is set to have a higher amount of CUDA Cores with 10240 than the 4070 Ti Super which only boasts 8448, alongside a higher bandwidth of 736GB/S while the Ti Super only has a memory bandwidth of 672GB/s. That being said, the 4080 Super and the 4070 Ti Super are matched in their RAM capacity, 16 GB GDDR6X memory, and an equal 256-bit memory interface. They are built on the same AD103 die as well.
The RTX 4080 Super claims a marginally higher Memory clock with 23GBp/s whereas the Ti Super has a memory clock of the 21GBp/s, but the 4080 Super does have a worse power consumption, at 320W, while the Ti Super is more power efficient at 285W; if you are looking for a GPU with an impressively low power consumption, check out the RTX 4070 Ti Super vs RTX 4070 Super, which boasts an incredibly low power consumption of only 220W.
