The Card

Palit's RTX 2080 Super Gaming Pro OC uses a classic triple-fan design with black as the dominant color. The backplate is made out of plastic and looks good thanks to the embossed GeForce logo and stripe styling.


Dimensions of the card are 29.0 x 11.5 cm.


Installation requires three slots in your system.


Display connectivity options include three standard DisplayPort 1.4a and an HDMI 2.0b.


The board uses one 8-pin and one 6-pin power connector. This input configuration is specified for up to 300 watts of power draw.


With Turing, NVIDIA is using NVLink as a physical layer for its next-generation SLI technology. NVLink provides sufficient bandwidth for multi-GPU rendering at 8K 60 Hz, 4K 120 Hz, and other such bandwidth-heavy display resolutions. It's a point-to-point link between your GPUs, so latencies will be lower compared to pushing data through the PCI-Express bus.

Disassembly

Palit is using six heatpipes on their thermal solution, which have direct contact with the GPU surface. This piece of the cooler also provides cooling for the memory chips and VRM circuitry.


The backplate is made out of plastic; it adds to the card's aesthetic and protects components on the PCB when handling the card.
