My first Gigabyte card and it is gorgeous! I noticed some of their other cards look and feel like cheap plastic. This one is definitely made of premium materials. The metal backplate is rock solid and sleek. The material around the fans are durable and solid as well. The RGB is a little underwhelming but still nice! The card overall still looks great with my white case.
As far as performance goes, I had a 4080 FE before this one that I sold. I managed to get a slightly higher graphics score on Time Spy with the Aero. It was literally 1% difference. Not major but I did want to point out that the Aero did OC a little more. The power limit was also higher. Thermals are fantastic. Can't say enough. Coil whine is also very minimal.
My only minor gripe is that the GPU sag bracket didn't fit my NZXT H7 case but this is case related as the H7 has a metal shroud next to the MOBO for cable management/cover and aesthetics. I had to buy a separate GPU stand to help hold up this GPU. Sag was really bad without additional support. If your case cannot support the included metal bracket, I definitely advise getting something else to help with the sag.

Great Looking Card with Performance to Match

This was a surprisingly good upgrade from a 3080 Ti. Performance with all the bells and whistles at 1440p has been great and having the latest suite of DLSS features has been great for the eyes.
The card was nicely packaged and the included accessories were a nice bonus, although I didn't wind up using them.
The card looks great in my all white build, really fits the aesthetic and is tastefully presented. It would be nice if more than just the AERO logo was back lit but at least it has an ARGB element present on the card.
The dual bios is also helpful and the silent mode really works well. Temps have been 65 and below while gaming. No coil whine.
For a 4080 that looks classy you can't go wrong with this.

For GPUs, it's obviously way too expensive, but I'm really enjoying playing every game at max settings in 1440p. Frame generation really is a game changer.
For RTX 4080s, the white looks great, there's no coil whine to speak of, and I have zero crashing in my games.

Built this with a brand new pc paired with a Ryzen 9 7900X. Works great, absolutely destroys everything you throw at it. Easily over 120fps in Final Fantasy 14 and Cyberpunk. I did need to install with a vertical mount so it would fit in my case and paired it with a cable mod for the GPU. All in all I would easily recommend this GPU if you got the wallet for it. Worth the money.

Stays nice and cooler than my 3080 asus tuff about 10 degrees when playing warzone. The gigabyte stays about 62 degrees in a li lian 11 evo case. Just wish the metal top plate was also white. Also Getting about 170 fps in warzone on 2k and 240 in multiplayer on normal settings.

Definitely expensive as we all know. I needed a white gpu and I felt this one was the best for what I needed it for and the price. It was a huge upgrade for me as my gpu was 6 years old.

You guys wanted an all white build too.
So here we are...$1300 later
DO YOUR RESEARCH! -on what your pc configuration will be; and whether or not this card will fit in your case. Vertical mounting is an option but that will present you with some new potential problems. The power cable splitter is a P.I.A to work with. Check out CableMods 90 or 180 angle adapter seen in my picture.

This was an AMAZING BUY! The price was great! The card is outstanding in performance! I did a Snow White Build and this card was perfect for it. The purchase was easy and I got it super fast. I will definitely be buying from Best Buy again in the future. A New Galaxy watch will be my next purchase!

The Gigabyte RTX 4080 Aero

This is one of the Best GPU's on the market right now. I upgraded from an aging GTX 1060 6GB, so I made the investment that is going to last me for years to come. This card will run any game you can throw at it at max settings. I get over 200fps in MW2 and I have achieved Legendary Status in the 3DMark Fire Strike Ultra Benchmark with my setup, making it one the fastest in the world with my PC specs. This card can be overclocked as well, the fans do not run unless the card get hot, so it runs quiet and my temps under load are under 60 degrees C. With the fans cranked to full speed it sounds loud.
Side note: This card is gigantic. The comparison picture is next to my old ASUS GTX 1060 6GB. I had to completely remove my water pump and custom loop setup and go with an AIO to make it fit into my Lian Li Dynamic 011. You will need to use the included support bracket or another type of bracket in order to prevent sagging. I also recommend purchasing an aftermarket connection cable as well. The one in my pictures is not included.
I am extremely happy with this card and I recommend it to anybody that is looking to upgrade their PC. You get what you pay for.

This card is amazing, I have the founders 4080 in my pc and this in my wife’s and it runs cooler which is not surprising since it’s HUGE. Worth it though, epic card.

The performance of this GPU is out of cuestion, but having a X80 class GPU with a higher price than the X80 ti from last generation it's not a good sign. I can't recommend this GPU when paying less you have the RX 7900 XTX with similar performance and more VRAM.

I got this after returning the 4070Ti due to more VRAM. I wish it had more than 16GB but it should be enough for now. Not the greatest value but it's faster than my 3080Ti at 4K gaming. Great aesthetics for my white build, too.

Expensive, not a 4090, but runs everything with high frame rates and decent efficiency. The support bracket is much better than the one from my my previous card and the card runs cool/quiet during normal use in my large case.
