Got to be bandwidth surely, with a 256bit bus it's about the only thing that makes sense.
Good card though, if you can get one! Also I think the vRAM buffer also plays a part in this as well because the 3070 has only 8GB vs 11GB for the 2080 Ti

Just odd if the Witcher 3 is the only title that is memory bandwidth sensitive.

Let's not make those 8 vs 10 vs 20gb conspiracies the norm. How does that explain the lack of such massive gaps between other cards with lower amounts of vram?
Further, Gamers Nexus made this https://www.gamersnexus.net/game-bench/1949-witcher-3-texture-quality-comparison-vram-and-fps where you see no impact in performance based on texture quality, which would make some amount of sense that there would be a difference if it was performant impactful - certainly speedwise.

DLSS is very promising. Hopefully the cards will be purchasable

Actually Fender178 could have something there, a lot of textures to load up in Witcher maybe?
