Well if you look at the SKUs they're discontinuing, they're taking out all the lowest end models with more VRAM to save the allocation for the higher end models with jucier margins. For example the 5070 Ti costs $500 less than the 5080 but both have 16 GB of VRAM. I imagine that for the near future, they'll have the 5060 8GB, 5070 12GB, and 16GB will be limited to the 5080 for consumers willing to spend $1300 on a GPU.
