How much the RTX 3080 12GB gains over the RTX 3080 10GB will depend on which clock improvement has more of an impact in real-world gaming.
As expected, Nvidia is going ahead with the launch of a 12GB version of its vaunted RTX 3080 graphics card, which is 2GB more than the previous version.
It was a bit weird for Nvidia to hold the RTX 3080 to just 10GB of VRAM at launch given how long GPUs have sat at or near 8GB.
