RTX 3080 or Ti

[StevenC]

Hey,

 

I'm looking to upgrade to a RTX 3080 from my current GTX 970 but I'm concerned that the 10gb vram will be limiting in the coming years and I was thinking of holding out for the rumored Ti version that suppose to come with 20gb however, I kinda don't wish to spend 1k on a GPU and I don't want to go with AMD as I have an older G-Sync monitor that would be better utilized with an Nvidia GPU. I was also thinking of getting a normal 3080 and selling it in a few years as an option. Any feedback would be appreciated.

I heard that the "Ti" development was halted. 10gb will be fine.

this "ti" thing is weird. THere was the origonal canceled 2x vram ti's, which got canceled about a month ago, and then there was the 7nm super leak, which wasnt canceled afiak, but it seems o be stopped, then the ti rurmors again, which have a 10gb 3080ti, which has the same(ish) gpu perf as a 3090, but with 14gb less gddr6x.

Feels like Nvidia purposefully 'leaks" a lot of rumors to discourage people from considering AMD 6800XT because of more VRAM.
