Almost a month after the official announcement of Nvidia’s RTX 3080 Ti, its custom cards are now available in Nepal. Zozo Hub has brought the MSI GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Ventus 3X 12 G OC to Nepal. So, let’s look at the specifications, features, availability, and price of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Ti in Nepal.
Nvidia RTX 3080 Ti Overview:
Performance
Here, RTX 3080 Ti appears to be quite similar to its predecessors, with comparable designs and port selection. The primary distinction here is the increase in power consumption and VRAM capacity. It brings 12 GB of GDDR6X memory, which is 2 GB more than the RTX 3080 and half of what the RTX 3090 has.
It has the GA102-225 GPU, 10,240 CUDA cores, 80 RT cores (specialized ray tracing cores), and 384-bit memory bus with 912 GB/s memory bandwidth.
Similarly, the 3080 Ti, like other GPUs in the RTX 30 series, supports ray tracing, Nvidia DLSS, Nvidia Reflex, Resizable BAR, etc. The company has also incorporated a restriction for cryptocurrency miners, which was first introduced earlier this month on RTX 3080, RTX 3070, and RTX 3060 Ti cards.

vs RTX 3090
On paper, the new GPU is more or less similar to the RTX 3090, but with half the VRAM. Aside from that, the RTX 3080 Ti requires the same amount of power as the RTX 3090. Nvidia recommends a 750-watt power supply, and the card can draw up to 350 watts of power. Moreover, it has a 1.36 GHz base and a 1.66 GHz boost clock.
The insufficiency problem
It’s certainly impressive to see NVIDIA offering even more graphics cards at a time when the worldwide chipset issue remains a major worry. By lowering crypto-mining capabilities on its RTX 30-series models, the company has been attempting to get its GPUs into the hands of gamers. However, the global chip shortage means there’s not much Nvidia can solely do about it.
Likewise, as aforementioned, Nvidia has attempted to offer 3080 Ti with similar features to RTX 3090, which is excellent on one hand. Still, we remain pessimistic that Nvidia will be able to meet the huge demand for the RTX 3080 Ti GPU.
Nvidia RTX 3080 Ti Specifications:
- GPU: GA102-225
- CUDA Cores: 10240
- RT Cores: 80 (2nd gen)
- Tensor Cores: 320 (3rd gen)
- ROPs: 112
- Boost clock: 1665 MHz
