ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 4080 16GB GDDR6X OC Edition

Recommendation

Nvidia GeForce trio in test: RTX 4070 Ti, RTX 4080 & RTX 4090

Technology Award

In terms of performance and features alone, the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4080 OC offers the best overall package for us. The cooling is quiet, keeps all components at low temperatures, and those who want to play around with the card a bit will also find more leeway in the power limit via the P-BIOS.

Techpowerup Editor's Choice

The ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 STRIX OC comes overclocked out of the box, to a rated boost clock of 2625 MHz, which is a 120 MHz increase over the NVIDIA FE speeds. This is the fastest factory-overclocked RTX 4080.

An excellent example in build quality

Out-of-the-box, the ASUS ROG Strix RTX 4080 OC is one of the fastest models on the market.

ASUS's ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4080 OC Edition graphics card is a knockout...

We all know the new GeForce RTX 4080 offers a great leap over the GeForce RTX 3090 and GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, but ASUS adds its usual magic touch to the ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4080 OC Edition. Fantastic performance out of the box with 2.9GHz+ boost clocks and overclocking past 3.0GHz isn't hard (but you won't get much more performance).

8.5 / 10

For those who don't wanna splurge on the flagship, the RTX 4080 could be a more reasonable option. But does it justify the 2x price hike over the RTX 3080? P.S.: This ROG Strix OC version is one thicc boi.

Excellent cooling

The GeForce RTX 4080 met our expectations in terms of performance and pleased us with a significantly lower price tag than the GeForce RTX 4090. And the ASUS ROG STRIX Gaming GeForce RTX 4080 OC Edition (ROG-STRIX-RTX4080-O16G-GAMING) model also proved once again that even very powerful graphic cards can be quiet enough

So, all in all, at the same time, I am delighted with the ROG Strix model itself - that is, the important things
