Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 leak shows what a threat this GPU is to AMD
Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 3080 has appeared in another leak online, as the spillage around the firm’s next-gen Ampere graphics cards intensifies ahead of their imminent launch, following an RTX 3090 leak which we just covered.
This one comes from the well-known leaker Rogame on Twitter, who shared a benchmark with spec details of the RTX 3080 (but keep the salt shaker handy).
As Videocardz, which spotted this tweet, reports, the RTX 3080 apparently has a device ID of 2206 which correlates with the findings of another rumor peddler (see LaptopVideo2Go), and Rogame found the spec details in the UserBenchmark database. According to this leakage, the RTX 3080 will have 10GB of GDDR6X video RAM – which matches what we’ve previously heard on the GPU grapevine – that will boast speeds of 19Gbps, again in line with previous leakage (for a potential total bandwidth of 760Gbps – compared to 616Gbps for the existing flagship 2080 Ti).
