Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com August 15 news, in June this year, foreign media OC3D quoted sources as saying that due to the price reduction of graphics cards, Nvidia has stopped producing its RTX 3080 12GB graphics cards and will no longer send RTX 3080 12GB GPU chips to its partners.

However, two months later, hardware whistleblower @ MEGAsizeGPU said Nvidia had resumed production of RTX 3080 12GB graphics cards, possibly because there was too much GA102 GPU inventory.

In addition, the "Moore Theorem is dead" news also said that Nvidia is helping graphics card manufacturers clean up the inventory of RTX 30 series high-end graphics cards to make room for RTX 40 series.

According to the report, Nvidia has directly intervened to help video card manufacturers clear the inventory of their GA102 GPU (RTX 3080 and RTX 3090) graphics cards, so that the RTX 40 series has a larger reservation. "even with Nvidia's help, it will take several months to thoroughly clean up the inventory of high-end RTX 30 graphics cards," he said. In addition, video card manufacturers will "handle" mid-range RTX 30 graphics cards, such as RTX 3060 Ti and RTX 3070.

CTOnews.com learned that the Nvidia RTX 3080 series includes RTX 3080 10GB, RTX 3080 12GB, and RTX 3080 Ti (12GB). It was previously reported that as the price of the graphics card fell sharply, the price difference became smaller, and Nvidia cut RTX 3080 12GB, which was good for RTX 3080 Ti sales.

In terms of parameters, RTX 3080 12GB has the same video memory capacity as RTX 3080 Ti, but the former CUDA core is 8960 and the latter is 10240. It is worth mentioning that Nvidia has never announced the suggested retail price of RTX 3080 12GB graphics cards before.
