The $900 one is the 12GB version, which is basically a 4070 compared to the 16GB version, because the memory is not the only difference, but also a different core count, memory bus size and clock speed, which is frankly even more insulting.

The "actual" 4080 16GB is $1200.

The 3080 (10GB) and 3080 (12GB) also had a core count difference, although they did not release simultaneously.

But I realized I did give the price for the 3080 (12 GB) model, which I corrected in an edit. So I think you're sort of right in the sense that the 4080 (12GB) is priced above the 3080 (10GB) in real terms, and that the 4080 (16GB) is priced way above the 3080 (12 GB) in real terms.
