The GPU racked up a Time Spy Extreme graphics score of almost 8,600 points, making it around 35% faster than the RTX 2080 Ti. That’s a bigger increase than previous rumors suggested, with early benchmark results placing it at round 20% faster than the Turing flagship.
This same leak suggested the GeForce RTX 3080 will deliver up to 50% better graphics performance over the GeForce RTX 2080 at 4K, and up to 40% better graphics performance at 1440p.
Compared to the so-called NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 – which will likely actually be the RTX 3080 Ti – which scored almost 10,000 points in the same Time Spy test, the GeForce RTX 3080 is only around 16% slower. This top-end card, the leaker claims, will be some 50% faster than Nvidia’s current flagship GPU.
Kopite7kimi has shared some additional details about the RTX 3080, and claims the card will feature the GA102-200-KD-A1 SKU, which features the same 4352 CUDA cores as the RTX 2080 Ti. It’ll also pack 10GB of GDDR6X memory running at 19Gbps with a bandwidth of 760Gbps
According to a recent rumor, Nvidia will release its first Ampere GPUs on 17 September – likely just daisy after AMD shows off its long-awaited Big Navi graphics cards.
