The 12GB GeForce RTX 3080 from Nvidia
4K resolution, maximum game settings, Ryzen 9 5950X, 32GB RAM, Windows 10 X64. RTX ON is the RT + DLSS performance mode (the 10 Series is RT alone and does not support DLSS).
Innovative Design
The new twin axial flow-through design maximizes thermal performance while maintaining fan sounds. This revolutionary design improves the natural airflow in the chassis, resulting in a quieter and cooler gaming system.
NVIDIA's Ampere architecture provides the greatest performance and performance per watt.
GDDR6X, the world's fastest graphics memory, allows for higher frame rates.
The new port supports 8K 60Hz and 4K 120Hz, as specified in HDMI 2.1.
Power supply phases distribute power efficiently, leaving opportunity for overclocking.
PCIe Gen 4 provides additional bandwidth for detailed textures, enabling the creation of more complex environments.
The front fan blows hot air out of the extra-large bracket vents. Individually designed fins guide airflow for more efficient cooling.
The unique backside fan directs air through the card to the natural top and rear chassis exhausts.
The hybrid vapor chamber has a heat pipe heat sink that efficiently distributes heat while allowing air to pass through.
A new 12-pin power connector enables the small PCB and high-density construction, which allows for greater airflow via the cooling fins.
The exposed fin stack visually elevates and operationally improves the airflow-focused design. Together with the unibody structure, this provides maximum stiffness and fin-stack volume while minimizing air resistance.
Get faster performance using NVIDIA DLSS.
Maximum FPS. Maximum Quality. AI technology is used.
Improve your performance using NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling). AI-specialized Tensor Cores on GeForce RTX GPUs increase gaming performance without sacrificing image quality. This allows you to increase the settings and resolution for an even better visual experience.

Ray Tracing
Ray tracing emulates how light interacts in the actual world, resulting in the most realistic and engaging images for gamers and artists. The GeForce RTX 30 Series has second-generation RT Cores for optimal ray tracing performance.
Built for live streaming.
Steal the stage with stunning visuals and stutter-free live streaming. GeForce RTX GPUs have superior streaming capabilities owing to the NVIDIA Encoder (NVENC), which is designed to offer stunning performance and picture quality. Plus, customized improvements for all of your favorite streaming applications offer you the opportunity to always give your audience your best.
GeForce RTX 3080 graphics cards with LHR (lite hash rate) are scheduled to launch in May 2021. Check the manufacturer list for LHR items. GeForce RTX 3080 GPUs with LHR achieve an ETH hash rate of 43 MH/s (estimated).
Additional Features and Benefits.
Capture and share movies, screenshots, and livestreams with your peers. Update your drivers and improve your game settings. GeForce Experience allows you to do it all. It's the ideal complement for your GeForce graphics card.
Developers may now create even more stunning graphical effects for Microsoft Windows-based PC games. GeForce RTX graphics cards have powerful DX12 technologies such as ray tracing and variable rate shading, bringing games to life with ultra-realistic visuals and quicker frame rates.
RTX Video Super Resolution.
RTX Video Super Resolution optimizes videos played in your Chrome or Edge browser using cutting-edge AI algorithms to sharpen pictures and eliminate blocky and annoying compression artifacts. Enjoy crystal-clear video at up to 4K resolution.
Experience smooth, tear-free gameplay with refresh rates of up to 360 Hz, as well as HDR and other features. NVIDIA G-SYNC gaming monitors are the perfect choice for avid gamers.
High-performance graphics provide the smoothest, most engaging VR experiences.
Resizable BAR is a sophisticated PCI Express feature that allows the CPU to access the whole GPU frame buffer at once, resulting in improved performance in many games.

Is your system ready for the GeForce RTX™ 3080 Ti or RTX 3080 Founders Edition?
Graphics card characteristics vary depending on the add-in card manufacturer.
Other models should be based on the specs provided by the add-in card manufacturer.
The next procedures need knowledge of your PC's components or physically opening the case.
1. Check your power supply.
750W is necessary.
A lower power rating may be sufficient depending on the system design.
Please inquire with the PSU seller.
Two dedicated PCIe 8-pin power lines are separate from the power supply.
