GDDR6X has double the bandwidth of the old GDDR6(only HBM is faster) so in theory, with double the piping it almost like a 20GB GDDR6. So I wonder if in order to drive the price down(Margins) and up availability. they are just adding the GDDR6 at 20 GB that AMD uses and figure out how to get SAM working on the cards to get near or Identialical bandwidth. As 20GB GDDR6X would be crazy expensive more so than the 3090 RTX and almost dam impossible to source

MSI: "You won't be able to find one of these either!"

Us: "Oh.... Well, cool, I guess...."

Not sure I get how Nvidia could "kill off" a 20GB card, since all that VRAM is provided by board partners, unless they artificially limit on chip the supported VRAM.

NVIDIA was thought to have killed off the 20 GB version of the RTX 3080, but MSI suggests that may not be the case. To date, the board partner has registered the RTX 3080 20 GB under its Suprim, Sea Hawk, Gaming Trio, Aero and Ventus series.
