NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti
Effectively an RTX 3090 with half the memory: 10,240 CUDA cores, 384-bit GDDR6X at 912GB/s and 350W for $1,199. It lands within a few percent of the 3090 in games while giving up the 24GB frame buffer that creators were paying for.
Pros
- Near RTX 3090 gaming performance
- 912GB/s across a 384-bit bus
- 80 RT cores handle 1440p ray tracing comfortably
- Genuinely capable 4K raster card
Cons
- 350W with punishing transient power spikes
- 12GB of VRAM ages faster than the 3090's 24GB
- $1,199 MSRP was rarely honoured at retail
