It won't feature a further cut-down GP104 chip, it is a newer, deliberately smaller (fewer transistors), GP106. It has a narrower memory bus and fewer CUDA cores by design, not just by fusing off portions of the chip. Smaller chip = more chips per wafer = higher volume production.

I understand that, but that only indicates that supply would be increased relative to the 1070/1080 that are scarce as hell. It also means they have a separate process for creating the chips and we do not yet know they yield from that process.
