On 11th January NVIDIA is revealing GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB Graphics Card publicly

Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 12GB was expected to launch at CES 2022 but at the last moment, Nvidia decided to change the date just like Nvidia RTX 3070Ti 16GB, which was expected to reveal on 17 December 2021. Now based on the information we got from online sources, the GPU will be revealed next week on 11 January 2022 at 6 AM PST. There is no information on certain prices and availability but as per the sources, the pre-orders or even sales of RTX 3080 12 GB will commence the same day.

What we can Expect From The Latest NVIDIA RTX 3080 12 GB Graphics Card

NVIDIA is expected to have enabled all 70 SM units for the GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB, which has a total number of 8960 CUDA cores, a 3% increase over the standard RTX 3080. GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB is also packed with next-generation RT (Ray-Tracing) cores, Tensor cores, and brand-new SM or streaming multi-processor units. The card is suggested to be power-hungry which can consume a TDP of 350W.

GeForce RTX 3080 is packed with 12GB GDDR6X memory. With the help of Micron’s latest and greatest graphics memory dies, the RTX 3080 can boost GDDR6X memory speeds up to 19.0 Gbps. It has a bus interface of 384-bit which delivers a cumulative bandwidth of 912 GB/s or a 20% increase over the old card variant.

The main focus of this card is its pricing. While the MSRP of $699 US was not true for GeForce RTX 3080 because it was sold at a very high price. We can expect the same from the new GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB. It is in between GeForce RTX 3080 10 GB and GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 12 GB so we can expect the cost of GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB will be around $899-$999. And because of availability, we can expect the price can go above $1500. As for the performance GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB can go close to its Ti variant GeForce RTX 3080Ti 12 GB.
