Cancelled Gigabyte RTX 3080 Ti 20GB Spotted

Achieves 98 MH/s in Ethereum Mining Performance.

Apparently the card costs around USD $3,000 (if you can find one), and if you use the most profitable mining algorithm, the card will take 400 days to pay for itself off. 

Taken from VideoCardz … In late August we received a set of photographs featuring a Gigabyte AORUS graphics card equipped with 20GB memory. The person that shared the photos with us did not provide any further details, which is why we were not sure if this card really did exist. As it turns out it does, but as far as we know such cards are only sold in St. Petersburg in Russia.

Russian YouTuber КОЛЯ МАЙНЕР gained access to the card as soon as he learned where exactly they were available. From what is being said in the video that he made it appears that he had remote access to the card installed at the retailer’s warehouse.

The 20GB model of RTX 3080 Ti certainly does sound interesting to many enthusiasts, but unfortunately in this case the card only works in cryptomining. It lacks proper drivers (it is unsupported by the official Game Ready driver). The YouTuber actually tried to learn more about the card, such as finding drivers for this model, but Gigabyte Russia has responded that the company does not have such a model.
