“More” does not always mean “better”: higher power draw or size is a system requirement, not an advantage (such bars are dimmed).

Questions and answers
How much video memory do NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti have?
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER: 8 GB GDDR6, 256-bit bus. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti: 8 GB GDDR6 / GDDR6X, 256-bit bus.
Which is faster: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti?
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti leads in every scenario with comparable benchmarks: rendering and compute. This does not imply an advantage in tasks without benchmarks.
