ASUS x Noctua GeForce RTX 3080 10 GB OC Card Pictured

ASUS looks set to release a second graphics card featuring a Noctua cooling solution nearly a year after the two companies announced the ASUS x Noctua GeForce RTX 3070. This new card features the GA102-based 10 GB version of the RTX 3080 instead of the newer 12 GB version launched in January. The quad-slot cooling solution present on the card is very similar to the existing configuration with dual 120 mm Noctua fans and a slightly modified backplate. The card features dual 8-pin power connectors in addition to non-standard display outputs with 3x DisplayPort 1.4 and 2x HDMI 2.1. The ASUS x Noctua GeForce RTX 3080 is expected to launch soon and retail for 1150 EUR which is 250 EUR more then the existing ASUS x Noctua GeForce RTX 3070.

TheDeeGeeYou do know the entire shroud and backplate has a brown tint to it?

It won't fit with any build unless you already browned out with fans.
Well, if someone passes a GPU because of its shroud/backplate colour, then it's his/her problem. I wouldn't personally mind, hell, even having a backplate would be nice as my 1080 Ti doesn't have one.

And I do agree that the shit-colored classic Noctua fans are ugly, but like I said, in 99.9% of builds, the fans would be facing down, out of sight.

LenneI doubt that they use a different PCB between 10GB and 12GB models, as 12GB models practically just has two memory chips more.

So it's just stupid to release a premium model like this when there's a better version of the "same" model.
True they are similar but the vram isn't the only difference. It really should have been called 3080 Super 12GB.

Yeah, the 12GB one has 256 shaders and 8 TMUs more.
