Yesterday, NVIDIA announced the GeForce RTX 3070, RTX 3080 and RTX 3090. It seems more models may follow sooner than expected as Lenovo is already talking about a "GeForce RTX 3070 Ti" on its website.

The Chinese PC maker recently uploaded the specifications of the Lenovo Legion T7 34IMZ5, a new gaming PC that features the GeForce RTX 3070 Ti. This model has 16GB GDDR6 memory, which is double as much as the RTX 3070 and also quite a bit more than the 10GB used by the RTX 3080.

While it's an interesting find, VideoCardz notes it may be inaccurate. It wouldn't be the first time a PC maker uses inaccurate or outdated specifications for future models. Furthermore, it's also unclear whether this model is really a "Ti" or a "SUPER". VideoCardz claims NVIDIA's add-in board partners are talking about both names.
There is, however, something to consider. NVIDIA clearly did not inform the partners with the full specifications until the very last moment. We have heard that the final BIOS for the Ampere series was provided only recently. The doubled FP32 SM (Cuda) count has also not been communicated clearly to partners until just a few days ago. Hence, some AIBs still list incorrect CUDA core counts (5248/4352/2944) on their websites. What this means is that Lenovo may still rely on old data, which could’ve changed over the past few days.
