Images of the supposed Founders Edition versions of the RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4070 Ti surfaced on Twitter yesterday. If the former doesn’t seem impossible because it hasn’t been released yet, it seems quite unlikely that Nvidia will now decide to release an FE version of its RTX 4070 Ti. We get to the bottom of the rumours.

In fact, @KittyYukko’s Twitter account revealed two sets of photos that would reveal the Founders Edition models of the RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4070 Ti. Regarding the first, the images show an RTX 4060 at first glance, but @KittyYukko claims it’s actually a Ti model. Regarding the Founders Edition part, note that we find the usual cooling system of the FE models.
If no indication of its size has been leaked, the graphics card “only” seems 2 PCIe slots, a compact size that will appeal to gamers who are dying to buy a new case for an RTX 4000. As a reminder, the RTX 4060 Ti has been talking about this for a few months now. In particular, we know that it should be equipped with an AD106-350 GPU with 4352 CUDA cores and 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM. It would also offer a TDP of 160W, making it much less power-hungry than its range neighbors.
Nvidia could have released an RTX 4070 Ti Founders Edition
The RTX 4060 Ti FE, why not. We’re still waiting for the official launch of the graphics card and Nvidia is generally not hesitant to release it its own versions of the models it wants to push. The second leak, on the other hand, is a different matter. @KittyYukko therefore revealed two photos of a different graphics card, again with a similar cooling system to the FE versions, which would be an RTX 4070 Ti.

Only here it is hard to imagine that Nvidia decides to launch its own version of a graphics card more than two months after the launch. Especially since the latter, as a reminder, is in the center ofa dark controversyafter a first controversial name that was then withdrawn, namely RTX 4080 12GB.In short, it is possible that the manufacturer thought of launching an FE version of the RTX 4070 Ti for a while before committing itself retreated so as not to fuel the fire.
