Well there’s your 24GB 5080ti for holiday season ‘25.
I didn't see anything about volume production. Makes me wonder if all the leakers are wrong and the 5080 will have 24GiB GDDR7 and the 5090 will have 48GiB. Certainly would be a nice step up for the 5080 compared to the 4080.

No, there will never be desktop 48GB 5090. That would be for Quadro. The 5080 will be 16GB, Nvidia isn't going to rush out and use Samsung, they just told them they won't even use their HBM3e. We won't see 24GB 5080 Ti until Micron or SK Hynix have 3GB dies IMO.

You can be pretty sure the consumer cards won't increase vram emplacements or bit width. So, 5090 with 24GB and 5080 with 16GB, and after 3GB module hit volume production, 36GB and 24GB ti versions as that requires them to do exactly 0 rework of the cards.
 
hynix started production already (july 30), but it offers "just" 32gbps now and 40gbps later, still better than gddr6x

so its possible to see 50 series sooner with hynix and later some ti/super variants with samsung, rummors shows Q1 25 for RTX 50xx, which doesnt give much time frame for some QA with new samsung chips to hit some volume targets

I read on another site that mass production begins q1 ‘25. That’s why I said it’s a 5080ti instead of a the 5080.

Yeah, I was overly optimistic. So, as you and others have pointed out - there will be a Ti or Super a year later with possible memory upgrades.
