I want an extra 12GB for my 3080Ti.

Can I just like pop that shit in, or what? /s

If you know how to solder and don't mind if your card might not work afterwards lol

Technically “yes” but that’s quite some meticulous GPU modding and you’d need to be skilled enough with soldering and being able to modify the GPU firmware to detect it and even then it most likely wouldn’t work flawlessly… There was a guy that actually did that with a RTX 3070 but with some caveats.
