Really weird move you just made Nvidia. the tech company has announced that the 12GB RTX 4080 won’t hit the market because “does not have the correct name“. For the company led by Jensen Huang, the problem lies in having two models of the same GPU.
For the RTX 4080 graphics we have the option of 12GB or 16GB and Nvidia believes that having two possibilities under the name 4080 “is confusing”. Therefore, it will be on November 16 when we can get hold of the component for 1,199 dollars, but only with the 16GB RTX 4080.
Now, those who want to get an RTX 40 have only 4090 and 4080 to choose from. We do not know if Nvidia plans to relaunch the canceled model under another name or if it is a definitive move. Today we have been able to know that the RTX 30 graphics have unlocked the block for cryptomining, although it does not matter at this point.
Regarding size, the RTX 4090 has been revealed as a true behemoth that must be made room for on the PC. The CEO of Nvidia has also pointed out that we will not see the graphics price drop, which he considers a fact of the past.
