According to Twitter user @hongxing2020, NVIDIA will launch three new graphics cards, the GeForce RTX 3090 SUPER, RTX 3070 Ti and RTX 2060 in early 2022.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 SUPER, RTX 3070 Ti SUPER 16 GB & RTX 2060 12 GB are rumored to be launched next year
The tweet states that NVIDIA is not only preparing the new Ampere SUPER cards but will also refresh its Turing series.
If the above information is correct, then not only will we see the new GeForce RTX 3090 SUPER graphics card (GA102), but also the RTX 3070 Ti with 16 GB of memory. Additionally, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 with 12 GB memory capacity will also be released.
Recently, it was reported that NVIDIA is preparing the 12 GB GeForce RTX 2060 release for launch in the first quarter of 2022, aiming to address the GPU shortage as it is expected to persist throughout 2022.
It is also unknown what will happen with the three current models. Could NVIDIA upgrade the RTX 3070 Ti to use more memory at higher performance than the current RTX 3080 series? It wouldn't be strange since the GeForce RTX 3060 offers greater capacity than its Ti variant. But this suggests that both the RTX 3080 and the RTX 3080 Ti would end up with lower VRAM than the upgraded RTX 3070 Ti graphics card.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 SUPER desktop GPU series was released in a tweet by @kopite7kimi:
The above tweet from September showed that we have to wait to see NVIDIA release an RTX 3090 SUPER with 24GB memory, the RTX SUPER 3080 with 12GB memory, the RTX SUPER 3070 with 8GB memory and the RTX SUPER 3060 with 12GB memory. It is likely that NVIDIA is removing the 8 GB variants that are currently on the market to pave the way for more powerful GPUs.

Currently, both NVIDIA and AMD are showing signs of moving away from GPUs with less than eight gigabytes of memory, allowing consumers to use more powerful and efficient GPUs than in previous years. Also, with current market prices for GPUs still well above normal pricing, it is likely that all three (Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA) will be preparing new cards with more enjoyable additions when the market finally decides to lower prices and make them more reasonable for consumers.
