While AMD is busy in making the release of Ryzen and Vega GPUs, Nvidia is still working hard to keep its lead in the highly lucrative GPU market before arch rival AMD launches an attack next year. The company has officially confirmed the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card.

According to the Trusted Review, Nvidia has finally exposed to the world the existence of its flagship GTX 1080 Ti graphics card a little earlier than its planned debut. Media reports are citing a LinkedIn job listing that name the Nvidia GTX1080 Ti graphics card.

As Digital Trends learned that the recent job listing posted by the company on LinkedIn is currently looking for a qualified applicant. The news is notable as it clearly lists an unannounced Nvidia hardware, the upcoming GeForce GTX 1080 Ti graphics card.

It's not an intentional leak or some sort of accidental leak; moreover it's more like a product clue that is hinting at something big is coming next year. Amusingly, the LinkedIn job listing has now been removed.

Even more interesting is that the LinkedIn job listing has also revealed what Nvidia calls "Club GeForce Elite." Also, it mentioned a potential upgrade offer for the Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti owners, thus confirming the existence of the Nvidia hardware. Also in the same listing, Nvidia has mentioned about reward codes for free games being given to those who report bugs in the Nvidia's core products.

Playing video games at 4K and 60 frames per second is quite difficult these days. This is due to the fact that most modern games are not fully optimized for 4K gaming.

The best known 4K gaming card right now in the market is the Nvidia GTX 1080, which said to come with around 7.2 billion transistors. However, upcoming GeForce GTX 1080 Ti will be much more terrifying in this part as latest reports claims that it will likely come with 12 billion transistors, a big bump in the previous build.

For now, people knows nothing of about how many teraflops GTX 1080 Ti could push, but the latest rumored specs include a base clock of 1503MHz and 3,328 CUDA cores, with 10GB of video RAM on board.

As for the release date, Nvidia is expected to reveal its next gaming beast GeForce GTX 1080 Ti at the upcoming CES 2017 event.
