AIB partners start listing RTX 3060 cards with 8GB of VRAM

Previous rumours suggested that the RTX 3060 would receive an 8GB variant, and according to a few AIB partners, it seems they were accurate. For now, only Manli and Asus have listed RTX 3060 8GB custom cards on their websites, but others should follow soon.

A couple of days ago, we saw Asus introducing the first RTX 3060 Ti card with GDDR6X memory. Now, we turn our attention to the new version of the RTX 3060. As spotted by VideoCardz, Manli listed an RTX 3060 with 8GB of memory, confirming the rumours we've been hearing over the last couple of months. Moreover, Asus has also introduced two RTX 3060 8GB Dual series models.

The Asus cards' specs are unknown, but Manli has the spec sheet available online, which shows the card will feature 3,584 CUDA cores with a 1,320MHz base clock speed, boosting up to 1,777MHz as needed. This is the same as their RTX 3060 12GB graphics cards. The only difference seems to be in the memory subsystem. Instead of 12GB of GDDR6 memory and a 192-bit bus, it comes with 8GB on a 128-bit memory bus, reducing the GPU's maximum memory bandwidth to 240GB/s (down from 360GB/s).

Although we don't know the specs of the Asus RTX 3060 8GB Dual cards, we assume they should be similar to their 12GB variants but with less memory and a tighter bus.

KitGuru says: Nvidia has yet to say anything official about the new version of the RTX 3060, but it seems the 8GB variant will hit the market soon.
