news said that Nvidia is scheduled to release a new RTX 3080 12GB desktop graphics card this Tuesday, and its positioning is between the current RTX 3080 (10GB) and RTX 3080 Ti (12GB). Consumers who don’t often pay attention to technology news or are confused about these chaotic models for Lao Huang’s “nano knife method”. However, before the legendary new product launch conference on January 11, VideoCardz had already shared spy photos of the RTX 3080 12GB product from EVGA.

Early, Nvidia had restarted the RTX 2060 "Turing" GPU product line and quietly equipped the "new card" with up to 12GB of video memory.

As for the RTX 3080 12GB with Ampere GPU architecture, in addition to the increase in video memory capacity (GDDR6X), it also brings a 384-bit bus bit width (the RTX 3080 10GB graphics card is only 320-bit), as well as more CUDA cores and clock frequencies.

and the specifications also increase, along with the power consumption of the RTX 3080 12GB graphics card, and the TDP has been increased from 320W to 350W. However, this is only Nvidia's reference specification, and the EVGA FTW3 Ultra model with a non-public design is likely to be a little higher.

Judging from the spy photos shared by VideoCardz, its appearance design is consistent with the RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 Ultra, but the box clearly shows that it is an RTX 3080 with 12GB GDDR6X video memory.
