Specifications of the upcoming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 have been confirmed by Videocardz. According to their sources, there will be no 3080Ti card at launch. So far, only specs for the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 have been confirmed so far.
According to the Videocardz source, the RTX 3090 will be the topmost card of the new 3000 Series lineup. The RTX 3090 will feature 24GB of GDDR6X memory. It will have a memory bus of 384 bit. The 24 GB VRAM of the RTX 3090 is the same capacity as the current generation of Titan RTX card. The RTX 3090 will be based on the GA102-300 GPU chip according to the leaked sources. But that is yet to be confirmed.
The RTX 3080’s specs have also been revealed and it has been confirmed that it will have 10GB of GDDR6X memory. Its bus width will be 320 bits. The disparity between the memory of the RTX 3090 and 3080 is big. But it gives NVIDIA quite some room to release a 3080Ti or 3080 Super or even both in the future if needed. The GA102-200 GPU chip will be used in the RTX 3080 card.
The RTX 3090 and 3080 will be the flagship cards of the RTX 3000 series and they will be using the Ampere GA102 GPU chip to deliver massive performance gains over the Turing based TU102 GPU chip. The NVIDIA GA102-300 is expected to feature 5248 CUDA cores. This is about a 20% increase from the RTX 2080Ti.
The next-generation Ampere GeForce RTX 3000 graphics cards are expected to be announced on 1st September on a special live event planned by NVIDIA. At least three new graphic cards are expected during this event. The announcement will stick to the basic information such as specs and pricing. More details will be revealed during special press-only events after the announcement.
