NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 12GB und 16 GB zum gleichzeitigen Starten

The rumored 12 GB und 16 GB variants of the upcoming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 "Ada" graphics cards could launch simultaneously, according to MEGAsizeGPU, who broke the story about the presence of two memory-based variants des RTX 4080. A simultaneous launch of the two would make things similar to that of the GTX 1060 Serie, which came in 3 GB und 6 GB variants. Abgesehen von der Speichergröße, the two variants of the GTX 1060 differed in core-configuration (mainly CUDA core count), which widened the performance gulf between the two. The more recent example of memory-based variants is with the RTX 3080—which comes in 10 GB und 12 GB variants with different CUDA core counts; but which were launched far apart from each other.
