Server VideoCardz he already got her picture, in which we see the EVGA FTW3 Ultra model. But if we look at the picture showing the same model of the original RTX 3080 card, it is obvious that creating a hoax would be a matter of a few minutes for a little experienced graphics, including the modified ultra inscription. The source then shows another image of the allegedly 12GB card, but it is already exactly the same as the pictures of the original version. That, of course, may be perfectly fine, EVGA won’t make a completely new design, and now there’s a lot of information to say that the RTX 3080 12GB is real and basically on the market. –

And what does RTX 3080 12GB have to offer? We can imagine it as RTX 3080 Super, because it is not just about higher memory capacity. The original RTX 3080 has 8704 CUDA cores, while the new one is supposed to have 8960 (280 Tensor, 70 RT), or 256 more, which makes the other two SM units extra. It must be acknowledged that NVIDIA has a good margin of maneuver in this regard, as even so, a new card from the RTX 3080 Ti would still be separated by 10 SM and 1280 CUDA cores.
In addition, higher memory capacity would have an impact, and its subsystem would move essentially to the level of the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti. Such a card with 12 GB of GDDR6X memory can have only a 384-bit interface, and since the RTX 3080 Ti also uses the basic 19Gb / s version of the GDDR6X, it can be expected that the RTX 3080 12GB will actually also have a throughput of 912 GB / s. . But all this can be reflected in increased TBP.
According to VideoCardz, we should find out whether this is true today, when NVIDIA should officially introduce this novelty, offer it in advance and even allow the tests to be published, of course, if some are ready. If this happens, it will be even more bizarre from NVIDIA, because the hitherto officially unmentioned RTX 3080 12 GB would overtake the RTX 3050 card, which will not come on the market until January 27, when the tests will probably be published, regardless of the RTX 3090. , which was not even properly presented at CES 2022 and NVIDIA did not mention when it should come on the market.
Updates:
And it really will come, as at least two models are already offered in French and German stores, including the well-known Mindfactory. However, they are a few hundred euros more expensive than the original 10GB version.-
- MSI RTX 3080 12GB GAMING Z TRIO: 1699 EUR
- MSI RTX 3080 12GB SUPRIM X: 1799 EUR
