Gaming GeForce RTX 4080 16GB GDRR6X 384-Bit HDMI/DP Nvlink Tri-Frozr 3 Ada Lovelace Architecture Graphics Card (RTX 4080 16GB Gaming X Trio)

Money and value are too subjective to be worth talking about, so i'll simply describe my use case and experience vs expectations and people can figure out their own wallets. I went from 8700k/1080ti/32g to 7900x/4080/64DDR5, just to "benchmark" where i was and where i ended up. My uses (as it pertains specifically to the GPU) are personal / non professional. I use a LG 34 ultrawide 3880x1440 @ 144hz as main display (although this unit does drive my 2560x1444@144hz display as well (and occasionally a cheapy 1080 TV for youtube) My concerns going into the purchase were power consumption (and the resultant waste heat in a climate / housing situation that necessitates air conditioning) as well as the size and potential noise. The thing is absolutely massive. Its 7mm longer than my Fractal Define XL R2 case- which natively supports a 330mm card without removing the HD chassis. So, after discarding the HD chassis I was able to fit this 337mm card (admittedly with about 145mm to spare) Its big, its heavy, its substantive. you absolutely will be accounting for the size- in more ways than one. The size allows for larger heat sinks and the triple fan design, so its not entirely (or at all) a drawback if you can accommodate it. I undervolted my card and can run modern games fully maxed without going above 60c- usually substantially lower. In most cases, even after longer sessions, I don't see temperatures past the 40s. My case a good amount of airflow, though, so its fairly adept at ditching the heat, especially given the engineering of the cooling for the GPU. the card idles and handles light gaming tasks at 29-30C, lol. although its rated for 320w i dont think ive seen it grab more than 250 or so while gaming. its definitely interesting to watch the power use change in real time, even from level to level in a game, depending on optimization and whats going on around it, but the performance itself has never dropped- it just uses more gas. overall i'm pleasantly surprised by what i was able to achieve in both a power use as well as cooling. its not necessarily amazing to have a "cold" GPU when idling, but it runs colder than my triple fan EVGA 1080ti does both under load and while just hanging out it really is huge compared to older gen cards- even the larger ones. but, all the dimensions of both your case and the card are available to view before you make any decisions. if youre cocky about your case like i was, it may still be worth double checking if youll have to remove any cages or rearrange things though- my case is likely in the top 95th percentile for consumer case sizes and i still had to make adjustments. I paired this with a 1kW PSU coming from a 750w, and i can say thats overkill for the setup. 850 would have been fine, even paired with my RAM/CPU combo- the latter of which also undervolted quite nicely.

PREFACE: I bought this before the Ram Riots when it was 1200 dollars. For the price the performance is top notch. I've had no issues in any way and it handles everything I've thrown at it. However, the current price is almost 1800 as of this review. Which is insane. It replaced my 1080ti, I would rather have a 1080ti and 1800 dollars, than no dollars and this GPU.

There is only one problem, the description "MSI Gaming GeForce RTX 4080 16GB GDRR6X 384-Bit HDMI/DP Nvlink Tri-Frozr 3 Ada Lovelace Architecture Graphics Card (Gaming X Trio)" is wrong. It is listed as a 384 bit in title, but in the details it is listed as 256 bit. I bought it based upon the description thinking I was getting a 384 bit interface, so I'm a little disappointed that it is actually 256 bit. I confirmed the 256 bit interface in GPU-Z program. Other than that, the only problem I found was in the installation. MSI requires 3 separate PCIE cables be used. I ordered 3 PCIE cables from Amazon and they worked fine. Make sure that your Power Supply capable of providing at least 3. I actually needed 4 due to the fact that the MSI motherboard I used required a separate PCIE power. So I recommend at least 4 PCIE slots in the power supply and also recommend at least a 1000 watts. Also for installation, you need a very big case as the card is very long. Make sure you have a case that supports the length of the card. I bought a Corsair 7000 which handled it nicely. The card is so massive that it comes with a separate support bracket. As far as performance, the card is fantastic, delivering what is needed for high end graphics applications. The 16 GB memory comes in handy for graphic intensive programs such as rendering in Blender and Divinci Resolve. The card is capable of being OC'd and is easy to do so. All in all, this card is a good deal, even though it requires a large case, 3 PCIE cables, and a 1000 Watt PS.

I can't get the card to go over 70 degrees Celsius. Not even with the most demanding games available. I can finally play Ray traced games at decent frame rates too at 1440p. I know pc enthusiast are saying to avoid these cards because of their price, but the benchmarks are amazing! Frame generation is kind of meh. Works great on some games, and not so well on others. I don't think I'll need to upgrade for a long time, and I believe that's why Nvidia is charging a premium price. It's also scary quiet, like why haven't I heard my toddler in the last 30 mins quiet. I don't have to worry about my house catching fire like with the 4090. I assumed I would miss my money, but I'm starting to think it's the best money I've dropped on my pc in a loooong time. If you can afford it - Get it!

This card works great love the support bracket and easily can OC the card with no real temp issues for my build. The only issue I have is how I got hit for almost $300 over the current price and that's within a month. Instead of scalpers Nvidia is setting all these componies up to look worse than scalpers.

Still have it till today. Works like a beast with dlss 4.5. Wish I had better gen frames.

I have had this video card running for a while now. It works great with gaming or working and has never given me any problems.

The RTX 4080 is a great card and runs extremely well when paired with the right system. My temps never reach above 36c when playing games like Tarkov or Elden Ring and I can hardly tell the fans are spinning when at all when the GPU is under load. Although the price of the card is still a bit too high for most avid gamers at $1299 it felt like a reasonable purchase that was well worth it if upgrading from an RTX 20 series card like myself. After waiting years for RTX 3080 prices to fall, but not falling enough by the time the RTX 40 series was released, the choice was easy. Rather than waiting another year or even longer for prices to come down for the top end RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 cards, why not just upgrade to the next gen while these 3080 cards are still only about $100 cheaper than a 4080?

2年くらい使ってますが、問題なくパフォーマンスを発揮してくれてます。

La tarjeta esta muy bien pero desafortunadamente es muy grande para mi gabinete, no pude probarla

what a monster, the fan never run lol

I love the product especially getting it discounted , is better than the Rtx 4080 super

replaced my aging 1080, 4080 go brrrrr
