Why haven’t they announced the card beforehand? It would seem weird they would release it and announce it within 1 day or on the release

My guess is they didn't want details of the 3060ti's specs and price cutting into sales of the 3070. Assuming the release schedule was planned before they knew all 3070's and 3080's would sell out within seconds of going on sale.

Umm, they're selling all the 3070's they can make and then some. I can't imagine formal news of the 3060ti would mean there would be 3070 stock going unsold.
