If it were going to replace the current 3080, you'd have a valid point, but this will be a much more expensive card, competing with the 6900XT segment of the market & not the 6800XT.

NVIDIA RTX 3080Ti to launch in January 2021?

They've already achieved bad optics with low stock levels, I guess which one they pick will be an indicator of how threatened Nvidia feels.
As if this 30 series launch couldn't be any more farcical. I mean, they've just made their 3090 obsolete lol
I'm glad Nvidia weren't in control of my internet the past twenty years otherwise I'd still be using a 56k modem.
We knew they'd want to compete with the 6900XT but even that product seems poor value compared to the 6800XT, which depending on price and stock, is the card to go for imo

It's never stopped them before!
NV always be cheaping out on the VRAM.
Because they've never had any real competition before, now they have, otherwise this card wouldn't even be a consideration at Jensen HQ.
They can **** off. Get the products they've already sold shipped. I've given up and bought a 1660 super just so I don't have a 6 grand ******* paperweight sat in the corner while I wait for the rocking horse **** that is the 3080. Now they tell me a Ti version is coming in Jan? I should have just stuck to consoles and bought another motorbike.

Can't make a proper stock amount = Worthless company
Charge 1500 for RTX 3090 and after 2-3 months they release 3080Ti for 500 less. Greed at it's finest
Congrats Nvidia.
I know right, I mean its like they havn't done exactly the same thing before with the 1080ti... oh wait...
Videocardz leak indicates a 3080 architecture with more vram but wccftech leak indicates a 3090 with less vram, wonder which site I'd trust more...
5% slower than the 3090 would mean the 3080 Ti is just an overclocked 3080. 3090 is only 8% faster at 1440p than the 3080.
OK, from a 4k point of view, it's a little more. But tbh the 3080 and 3090 are so close to each other, a card positioned inbetween could easily be an overclocked 3080, as much as using a 3090 with slower memory bus could lose a few percent performance. My point wasnt so much a perfect prediction. More so pointing out the difficulties of releasing a 3080ti, that is faster than a 3090. Something I keep seeing.
Given the 20GB was already cancelled I'd lean towards a 12GB 3090, also doesn't cannibalize 3090 sales and makes it easier to hit the $999 msrp.

So what are they going to do with this so called TI?
Amd surely have an XTX around the corner, i would be amazed if they aint learned from the past few years.

I've had a properly **** day (despite my 3090 arriving), this was a much needed chuckle.
Thanks for that
