I've not used or bought any RTX 3090ti but since this graphic card is more powerful than RTX 3090 I'm just curious how the cooling system is, have Nvidia learned a lesson from RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 heat issues? Is 3090ti cooling improved?.
The same problems can be with overheating of memory during mining. I advise you to find good reviews on specific models and make a purchase decision. A non-reference cooling system is made by video card manufacturers, not by Nvidia.

this.

"specific models"

suprim x 3080ti, 3090 and 3090ti are almost the same in size

3080ti: 336 x 140 x 61 mm (400w)

3090:  336 x 140 x 61 mm (420W)

3090ti: 338 x 140 x 71 mm (480w)

same coolers for both 3090 and 3080ti minor difference to 3090ti. so 3080ti's on suprim x are very cool. 3090 are cool enough, then plus 1cm for 3090ti to be cool enough.

people are just buying the cheapest model and run them..if you live in a cold climate then yes, you have that option. but then again there are such issues to the types(brands that don't perform compared to other brand ex. hynix, samsung, micron) of memory used in cheaper models (this is not always the case, there are times you can still get away with cheaper models). 80-90% of the time you get what you pay for.

Most games don't max out the memory like mining, this is why they use cheap thermalpads, so is no a issue for normal use, i am sure the new Ti version use the same shitpads.
Most you said but still, there are now many high-end PC games that take a massive shot on GPU memories, this have been happening since PlayStation 4 and Xbox one days, I am a full time PC gamer and I know more about GPU performance when gaming on PC.

I don't have  3090ti GPU and I'm not looking forward to buying one because I'm more interested in 3060ti and 3070s only, I don't have to deal with high memory temp issues after mining for a while, also I've realised that EVGA works better on their GPU's than other brands.

EVga cards for Nvidia.
Saphire for Amd.

No idea but as per what I've read from 3090ti owners on Reddit the GPU cooling is better, maybe we need to wait a few months to see how the thermal pads will keep up.
