FLOW TO VICTORY...

ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card

with the incredible sum of its parts

The ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 4080 brings a whole new meaning to going with the flow.
Inside and out, every element of the card gives the monstrous GPU headroom to breathe freely and achieve ultimate performance.
The unleashed reign of the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture is here.

Axial-tech Upgrades

A Fresh Spin

Bigger and better. Axial-tech fans spin on dual-ball bearings and have been scaled up to propel 23% more air through the card, setting the stage for lower temperatures, less noise, and higher performance.

Axial-tech fan

Reverse Rotation and 0dB Technology

Orchestrated Chill

The two side fans spin counterclockwise to minimize turbulence and maximize air dispersion through the heatsink. All three fans come to a standstill when GPU temps are below 50 Celsius, letting you play less-demanding games or perform light tasks in relative silence. Fans start up again when temps are over 55 C, referencing a speed curve that balances performance and acoustics for work or play.

As the fans of the graphics card spin, their rotational directions are highlighted.

3.5-slot Design

Through Thick and Fin

The custom sink is generously sized and structured to soak up heat from the GeForce RTX 4080 GPU so that it can be efficiently whisked away by the three Axial-tech fans.

Patented Vapor Chamber

Phase Changer

A vapor chamber featuring milled pathways lets the heatpipes sink in without being pressed flat, allowing heat to be carried more efficiently to the fin stack. In comparison to conventional vapor chamber and heatpipe combos, this potent pairing reduces GPU temperature by up to 5 Celsius when subjected to a 500W thermal load.

Premium Power Delivery

1st Responder

Digital power control, an array of high-current power stages, and a lineup of 15K caps ensure massive reserves to reliably push performance boundaries.

Compact PCB

Packs a Punch

Component and trace layouts have been optimized onto a short PCB to reduce power losses and let heat escape through a massive backplate vent.

Metal Exoskeleton

Ultra-rigid

A high-quality diecast frame, shroud, and backplate tightly brace the PCB and strategically steer airflow.

Go With The Flow

It all comes together to effortlessly drive GeForce RTX 4080 performance to the max.

FanConnect II

Hook up

Two PWM FanConnect headers provide additional DIY flexibility. Chassis fans can be directly attached to the card and tuned with a curve that is based on CPU and GPU temperatures, delivering extra intake or exhaust for demanding 3D tasks.

Reinforcements

Additional Perks

A GPU bracket provides extra stability to the critical connection between die and heat spreader. The rear I/O bracket is made from stainless steel to prevent corrosion in humid climates and provide a more resilient mount. A conveniently placed Dual Bios switch allows quick selection between “performance” and “quiet” speed profiles for the Axial-tech fans.

Power
Sensing

Quick Diagnosis

Know if your PSU is worthy. ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4080 graphics cards feature a high-speed circuit that constantly monitors input power from the PSU and utilizes conveniently placed LEDs to indicate voltage regulation issues and cable connection problems.

For specific instructions for connecting this graphics card to your power supply unit, please see the FAQ section.​

Auto-Extreme Technology

Reliability Boost

Auto-Extreme Technology is an automated manufacturing process that sets new standards in the industry by allowing all soldering to be completed in a single pass. This reduces thermal strain on components and avoids the use of harsh cleaning chemicals, resulting in less environmental impact, lower manufacturing power consumption, and a more reliable product overall.

Aura Sync

Symphony of Light

Aura-compatible ARGB lighting elements on the shroud and rightmost perimeter of the card provide endless possibilities for personalization with color or functional effects. Pair up with a vast range of compatible system components and coordinate the glow to create a build that’s uniquely you.

worth considering

As the fifth RTX 4080 that I have now reviewed, there is no doubt in my mind that the ASUS RTX 4080 ROG Strix is the best of the lot – and by a fair distance.

First RTX 4080 Unboxing in India

What is the RTX 4080 worth..!!!!

The ROG Strix card is clearly the superior one, combining the best average thermals with the lowest noise levels.

There are also a lot of you out there that just want the most high-end, the most RGB, and most over-the-top hardware.

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.

The RTX4080 is finally here! Here's the longest ASMR unboxing of the ROG STRIX RTX 4080 on the internet. Don't quote me, I didn't actually check.

If your pockets are deep to shell out $1,000 for a single GPU. You prefer using frame generation, DLSS 3, and ray-tracing, then the RTX 4080 should be a decent pick up for you.

ROG Strix RTX 4080 OC Edition Expensive but good, must be ROG

Those who follow me know that I am a die-hard micro ATX fan, and this video is dedicated to that. The build behind me is atomic cool and beautiful, this is a total white ASUS configuration. ASUS PRIME AP201 is the absolute star of this video, it is very interesting because very few cases of this format come out and this one, while not costing a lot lends itself to builds of a certain level.

Consider ROG STRIX 4080 if you want to keep hot air out of your case, run cold, and be cool and quiet.

If you buy yourself a computer to create content - you hold back, cut content - such a Nvidia video card will be much better.
