NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Launching In February, RTX 3060 In January 2021
Igor over at Igor s Lab has just leaked the date for NVIDIA s upcoming RTX 3080 Ti graphics card. This is the most anxiously anticipated card of NVIDIA s RTX 3000 lineup considering it has the full 20 GB vRAM buffer (unlike the 10GB buffer on the 3080) and is expected to be the true flagship considering the 3090 is basically a replacement for the Titan. While Igor has been rock solid in the past, please keep in mind that NVIDIA s launch schedules are vulnerable to Jensen changing his mind and other supply and demand factors - so take launch dates with a grain of salt.

Rumor mill: We’ve been hearing rumors about the RTX 3080 Ti for quite a while now, most of which suggested it would arrive in January. But the latest word on the grapevine is that Nvidia is pushing that date back to February, allowing the company to focus on improving supply of its current cards. It also seems that concern over Big Navi s threat to the vanilla RTX 3080 has proved unfounded.
Last month brought rumors of an RTX 3080 Ti launching in January, and the card was one of several unreleased Ampere products spotted on HP’s OEM driver list last week. According to VideoCardz’s sources, that January launch has now been moved to February, a claim echoed by Igor Wallosek of Igor’s Lab.
