According to the German website Igor’s Lab, Nvidia would have changed the release month of the GeForce RTX 3080 Moving it from January to February . The new model should offer 10496 CUDA core like the GeForce RTX 3090, but in combination with a bus to 320 bit and the same TGP as the 3080, or 320 W. On board we should also find 20 GB of GDDR6X memory , double the current one 3080.

As for the price, a list of 999 tax-free dollars, such as the Radeon RX 6900 XT by AMD . If confirmed, it would be 300 dollars more than the RTX 3080 (699 $) but at the same time 500 dollars less than the RTX 3090. The GeForce RTX 3080 You could debut around the Chinese New Year, i.e. between 11 and the 17 February, so we will most likely have to wait for the second half of the month.

The German site also confirmed that the GeForce RTX 3060 will come in two variations, with 12 GB or 6GB of GDDR6 memory. The two models should also have a number of different CUDA cores , and this could create some headaches for less experienced users when purchasing. In practice, Nvidia would have decided for the moment to cancel the RTX 3050 Ti 6GB from its plans, renaming it to RTX 3060 6GB.

Consequently, the ‘arrival of a GeForce RTX 3060 12 GB with a GA GPU 106 equipped with 3840 CUDA core, while the 6GB model will only have 3548 , although based on the same graphics chip. Both proposals should have a 192 bit bus. It is not clear if we will see a GeForce RTX 3050 Ti later, but instead it is certain that we will see the debut of an RTX 3050 based on a GA GPU 107 with 2304 CUDA core and bus a 128 bit and 4GB of GDDR6 memory. There may therefore be ample room for a Ti model, perhaps based on a GA 107 to its full potential.

Unlike the RTX 3080 Ti, the two RTX models 3060 should be unveiled in January , even if on the actual debut date there is no maximum certainty: it seems that the first model to arrive on the market will be the one from 12 GB.
