RTX 3080Ti confirmed by Asus leakage

It’s obviously a mistake or a collaborator too eager to finish that allows today to confirm the imminent arrival of the RTX 3080Ti…and a little more.

The support page of the official Asus website

The RTX 3060 is also available with 12GB

Indeed, on the official Asus website, we learn at the turn of a page that the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti will arrive with 20 GB of GDDR6 memory. As a bonus, it is also announced that the GeForce RTX 3060 will come with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory. This is something we could call “nonsense”. This 3060 will therefore have more memory than the RTX 3060 Ti (8 GB), more memory than the GeForce RTX 3070 (8 GB) and even more memory than the GeForce RTX 3080 (10 GB).

The RTX 3080Ti, a clone of the 3090?

Coming back to the RTX 3080Ti, the latter would have the same number of CUDA cores as the RTX 3090 (10496) but with the same bandwidth as the RTX 3080 (760 GB/s), while its price would be $999, the same official price of course as the Radeon RX 6900 XT. Obviously, by offering more memory (20 GB), a more powerful Ray Tracing and of course, access to technology like DLSS, it is obvious that Nvidia would hit hard. In terms of timing, the RTX 3080Ti is expected to arrive in early February while the 3060 RTX will arrive in January in two versions: a 12GB version and another more aggressive version in terms of price, with 6GB of memory.

• The 12GB model would use the GA106-400 GPU with 3840 CUDA cores (1024 less than the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti).
• The 6GB model would come with a GA106-400 with 3584 CUDA cores and slower GDDR6 memory (16 vs. 14 Gbps), limiting its performance.

An announcement of these 3 cards during the ESC is also not a hypothesis to be ruled out.
