When the GeForce RTX 3000 were still only rumors, there was already talk of potential versions in SUPER or Ti style, according to the first indiscretions in some cases with double the memory. A case, this, which could adapt to a RTX 3080 in the 20GB version designed to exploit the computational power of the card even in a professional perspective. However, it is difficult for the same to happen with the rumored RTX 3070 Ti and RTX 3060 Ti, two gaming cards whose eventual existence would probably be justified by offering variants capable of covering every price range, in order to oppose a wall to an AMD that on October 28 he will take the field with the NAVI 2X cards. On the other hand, between the 519 euros of the RTX 3070 and the 719 euros of the RTX 3080 pass well 200 euros, leaving a precise space for a 600 euros card. However, we do not know how much the GeForce RTX 3060 will cost, but even assuming a price in Italy of 359 euros, it remains a range of 160 euros that can easily accommodate a card from 419 euros. Furthermore, an RTX 3080 Ti should not be excluded, perhaps actually sold around 1000 euros since the upper range, the first ground of the high-end custom 2080 Ti, is now occupied by the bulky RTX 3090.
