In fact, I have the distinct feeling like the 16GB model was originally supposed to become the 4070Ti, but had to pull it down half a tier after the 4080 12GB became the 4070Ti... |
It's not really all that surprising considering Nvidia's track record. With Ampere, you had 3060 8GB, 3060 12GB, 3060 Ti, 3060 Ti G6X. It think the way it will play out is the 4070 12GB will be the main version that will get released world wide, 4070 10GB will be Asia only and 4070 16GB could be a refresh. I doubt they will release all of them at once.

Stop Nvidia. I don't mind having different VRAM models of the same card but if the CUDA cores aren't the same then don't give them the same name. The 1060 3gb/6gb was dumb and it's still dumb. |
I think they will given Nvidias history. Kind of like 3060 8GB vs 3060 12GB or 3080 10GB vs 3080 12GB. But it wouldn't surprise me if some of those cards aren't available world wide such as 4070 10GB might be restricted to Asia only as Nvidia has done them in the past.
