ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX® 4080 OC

Card is good but was getting bad hotspot temps, where the core was 67c and hotspot was 92c. Took the card apart and found the thermal paste job was bad from asus. Re pasted with thermal grizzly and hotspot is under 70c. Gaming this runs most games at 4k with no issues.

Asegúrense de que su gabinete sea gordo por que si esta delgado el cable pcie va a topar con el cristal templado yo tengo un nzxt h9 y tuve ese leve problema lo solucione con un adaptador y listo tenia una 3060ti y y encerio jugar warzone que es lo unico que e probado a mas de 200hz esta muy chido tengo 2 monitor un 1440p a 165hz y otro de 240hz en 1080p solo e probado el de 240hz y todo en ultra esta super chido vas volando literal

So you’re considering upgrading your GPU. There’s plenty of options around, but gosh darn, those prices are steep! Is a modern GPU really worth the expense?

Well, it depends…

If you’re the average computer user and like to watch movies or do some social media posting, with occasional email and web browsing, then no. This GPU is severely overkill. It would be overpriced and you would never utilize the immense list of features and capabilities it offers. Could be more beneficial investing in an Intel GPU if you really want to upgrade your setup and stay ahead of the obsolescence avalanche.

If you’re a gamer, however – or perhaps a video editor, or 3D CGI creator, or Videographer content creator, then this GPU, the ASUS TUF Gaming RTX4080 16GB might be a good fit for you. Yes, it’s expensive, but it’s a powerful and vastly capable card. As someone who does photo/video/audio restoration and conversion, this GPU runs major circles around my previous GPU (and RTX2060). I can render photo enhancements almost instantly, and render videos in a fraction of the time (especially using nVidia’s increasingly popular AV1 codec – exclusive to the 4000 series RTX GPUs).

And gaming? Fuggedaboudit…… I can max out every setting in Cyberpunk 2077 @ 4K resolution and this thing eats it up like candy – even in the most graphically demanding areas of the game – and still gets at least 90-100+fps. Same with every other game I’ve thrown at it so far (not a small list of RTX games, either). Game after game after game, and this GPU never balks. It just powers through each one with flying colors.

So why not get the RTX4070? None of the 4070 models really push the limits like the 4080. Are they not worth it? By no means – the 4070 cards are also capable GPUs in their own right. They just don’t do quite enough, in my opinion, to justify the cost.

What about the RTX4090? Quite simply because they don’t produce enough power over the 4080 to justify their cost, either. And they suck significantly more power than the 4080 – without significant differences in capabilities.

Simply put, the RTX 4080 – specifically the ASUS TUF Gaming 16GB GPU hits ALL the sweet spots for me. It’s just the finest GPU I’ve ever had the pleasure of owning and using. And if you’re a content creator like me, your revenue should easily justify the cost of this beast GPU, considering the amount of time you’ll same rendering material.

Do I recommend this GPU? 100%. Buy one before they’re all gone – and the prices spike again.
(Also, I do not work for nor am I sponsored by any company. This is my own personal, honest opinion on this product, as a small business owner and content creator.) Hope the info helps! Happy shopping!

No se asusten si les enciende el led rojo, es debido al adaptador 3×8 pin que incluye la grafica, sin embargo no es un dato de alarma, solo cerciorarse de que este bien conectado el adaptador !
Fue algo que me incomodo al inicio sin embargo al investigar un poco, me entere que era por el adaptador y hasta ahora todo bien,
P.D. si tienes fuente atx 3.0 no hay de que preocuparse ese led rojo no encendera ya que trae el conectot 12vhpwr nativo

I built my first pc this year and I went all out (for what I can) with a
Asus rog z790-i
Intel 13900k
64gb ddr5
500gb boot drive m.2
2tb m.2 nvme
Corsair 200 case
Samsung 49″ Odyssey 240hz
Asus 280mm AIO
2 Asus Rog 140 case fans
And the system was crowns with an Intel A770 when if first came out. Over time it has gotten better and really can’t complain about it.

But I wanted to know if Nvidia was better. And if going from 60hz @ 99% to 240hz @ 99% is worth the extra $1000 to you, then go for it. But to me it’s not a perfect seamless upgrade 😕. I’ve fresh installed the latest drivers and I’m still getting weird glitches with reds and blues separating showing the same object in games. It’s almost like the old 3d glasses screens. And the pc has crashed. I’m hoping it’s a temp problem with going to the bigger card. As the aio is much hotter than it used to get (the 13900k is temp limited to 90°c) it’s in a new case as well. But it’s open side right now as I wait for the 180 pcie 5.0 power adapter. And the 360mm aio
