The silicon of the NVIDIA RTX 3080 would have manufacturing problems
The amount of stock of the new NVIDIA RTX 3080s during their launch has been a big problem. During the launch day of the RTX 3080 Founders Edition there was hardly any stock of these graphics cards. The problem is that there would be a fairly limited amount of stock. There seems to be a problem with the manufacturing process for NVIDIA silicones.
Samsung is in charge of manufacturing the silicon for NVIDIA graphics and would be having problems. It seems that the manufacturing problem occurred during the month of August, specifically at the beginning. This is a month and a half before the planned launch and it has created a lot of problems.

Manufacturing Issues for NVIDIA RTX 3080 Graphics
NVIDIA with RTX 2000 graphics did not have the slightest stock problem too serious. Some of the initial problems had to do more with the memories used, not with the silicon. The Turing architecture graphics began to be manufactured in July and were released during the month of September.
These new RTX 3080 graphics make use of GA102-200 silicon that carry a manufacturing date identifier. The silicons bear the 2032A1 mark, which identifies the year, the week of that year and the revision of the same. The number 20 indicates the year of manufacture, which of course is 2020. The number 32 indicates that they were manufactured in week 32 of 2020, the first of August.
It is precisely the RTX 3080 models that are marketed for review, sales samples and development kits. We do not know more information about the silicon manufacturing process for these graphics cards. But NVIDIA has apologized in a statement for the lack of stock and problems with bots. We will see if the problem can be corrected shortly so that it exists Sufficient stock of all new graphics.
