Now the 12GB version has been canceled.

This is a pretty logical move.

At the same time, RTX 4080 with 16GB has 9,728 CUDA cores.

You will have a much less powerful graphics card if you buy the RTX 4080 with 12GB.

Nvidia has stated that they think this will confuse potential buyers.

So far, Nvidia hasnt announced what will go with the 4080 at 12GB.

Most likely, it will be released but under a different name.

For example, 4070 or 4070Ti.

However, some experts say this graphics card could be even less potent than the 3090.

However, its significant advantage is supporttechnologies such as DLSS 3.0.

If you expect a cheaper graphics card, you will probably have to wait until 2023.
