NVIDIA locks overclocking in GeForce GTX 1070 Ti
NVIDIA is rumored to be mere weeks away from launching its new GeForce GTX 1070 Ti graphics card, something that will completely bury AMD's luke-warm-but-runs-so-hot Radeon RX Vega 56, but the new rumors are very interesting.
Our friends at eTeknix are reporting that the GTX 1070 Ti "can't be overclocked", with the site saying: "An industry insider told eTeknix that the GTX 1070 Ti can't be overclocked. In addition, we've been informed that NVIDIA will not release any reference cards and all AIB partner cards will be locked to the same speeds. However, price and aesthetics are expected to differ across partner cards". If this rumor is true, it would be a big change in direction for NVIDIA and its board partners.
