That 12GB 4080 had compute bit above 3090 ti. But memory bandwidth between 3070 and 3070 ti.

If it the cache hit rate is similar to Navi2 of similar size. It would have effective bandwidth similar to 3090 in 1440p and way above any previous gen card in 1080p but at 4k it would be around 3070 ti territory in terms of memory bandwidth. So a great 1440p card natively and to those who are willing to use DLSS to upsample from that to higher resolutions.

What had me worried is that the 4080 12GB has a 192 bit wide memory interface, same width as the RTX 3060 and less than the RTX 3060 Ti.

Sure they worked on the caches to improve performance, but I always worries that some games will do poorly with the caches and have terrible performance. After all it's the lowest frame rates that are most noticeable, not the max or average.

Charging $900 for a RTX 3060 memory width is insane.
