GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4080 EAGLE Graphics Card Pictured

btarunr · Oct 28, 2022

In case you missed it, NVIDIA "unlaunched" the GeForce RTX 4080 12 GB; and so the RTX 4080 16 GB is now called just "RTX 4080." Here are some of the first pictures of a custom-design RTX 4080, the GIGABYTE Eagle OC. The company's new value-ended factory-overclocked graphics card brand sheds much of the unnecessary design bulk of the RTX 30-series Eagle; and sticks with a functional, minimalist design. The card features a 4-slot cooling solution, with an enormous plastic cooler shrooud holding a trio of what look like 100 mm fans. ventilating a dual aluminium fin-stack heatsink. Display outputs include a trio of DisplayPort 1.4a, and an HDMI 2.0b. The card draws power from a single 16-pin 12VHPWR connector, and is possibly the first confirmation that NVIDIA is extending the new power connector down its product stack. The RTX 4080 has a typical board power of 320 W (at reference speeds).

Based on the 4 nm AD103 silicon, the RTX 4080 is endowed with 9,728 CUDA cores, 76 RT cores, 304 Tensor cores, 304 TMUs, and 112 ROPs. The card's 16 GB of GDDR6X memory runs across a 256-bit wide memory interface, which at its memory frequency of 23 Gbps, churns out 736 GB/s of memory bandwidth. GIGABYTE is designing the Eagle brand-extension to compete with the likes of the ASUS TUF Gaming, and MSI Ventus X. NVIDIA is launching the RTX 4080 on November 16.

Like the looks

Hopefully Gigabyte never goes back to the glossy plastic they used before!

HDMI 2.0b... wtf.

spnidel · Oct 28, 2022

nice, a no-bullshit design

Stop gap release until the 4080Ti appears.

Anyone buying this overpriced junk needs their head examining.

igralec84 · Oct 28, 2022

So, the same power connector? Maybe this one won't fry at 320W.

Readlight · Oct 28, 2022

That one with melting wires.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet. Even the source they list disagrees so it's just a bad "copy paste".

ZoneDymo · Oct 28, 2022

but...it says 12gb on the side of that box.......tsk tsk Gigabyte, dont you know that SKU does not exist?!!?! (well not anymore atleast)

Pretty card, regardless of the PCB or chips.

Why is the shroud basically 2 slots wide? These cards are way too big 320 watts is not high enough power draw to justify the size.

Why_Me · Oct 28, 2022

Hopefully this card is a beast at 1440.

1440? A 3060Ti is a beast at 1440.
The 4080 16GB is going to make a 3090 Ti look shit, if your wallet and PSU can take the abuse - and there will be a lot of abuse...

Also 3060Ti can be found on ebay for $400 now.
Just sayin'...

The 3060 Ti is geared for 1080P ... that is unless someone plays those games that include elves, wizards and magic fairy dust.

My 3060Ti is doing just fine on a 1440p 165Hz monitor, thank you. CP2077 is the only game that's really taxed it, but that's because of the insane raytracing requirements. It's not like the 3090Ti runs that game smoothly at 1440p either, so I'm not counting that against the 3060Ti.

35-43fps from a $2000 GPU? at 1440p native with RTX on? Yeah, I'm not sold on that.
RTX is a f*cking mess anyway.

Agreed, I’m limited to two slots due to the use of a pci e x1 expansion card and none of these damn cards are gonna fit.
