Truly an excellent card for 1440p

This card is super cool and quiet, and runs everything well. Been gaming using a 1440p 240 hz monitor and most games that I have in my library maxes out the fps, save for some newer games of course as those have been found to be terribly unoptimized. Despite that, newer games still run pretty well with most if not all past 100 fps. I would highly recommend this card if you'll be playing at this resolution and targeting high fps. If you can get this on sale, I would say go for it. Refresh cards are also on the way and you may want to wait as well for those, but can't say for sure how well they will perform for their price points.

I thought it was a little pricey at first but after installing and seeing how it performs I can't complain. Having seen the temp get above 54 degrees and that's without installing other fans yet other than my AIO.

It’s a chonk. Make sure you have a roomy case. You might try more flexible cables if it’s a tight fit. Performance wise… it’s awesome. Plays everything at high-very high detail at or above 60fps. Paired with a 5900x.

Amazing card. Faster than the 3090ti by a large margin and it looks amazing. Has a lower power draw then the 3080 and Has the best gpu support in my opinion as it mounts to the board and hold the far back side of the gpu with multiple screws.
Also it’s 13.5 inch long and 6.2 inch wide by 4 inch thick . 2 slot card , it’s a bit pricey but if you want it buy it. I love it.
For those who don’t understand the fan light issue. Gigabyte has done somthing different on this card, and I like it , When it is under a stress load such as gaming or running benchmarks the fans will begin to light up . When the card is under normal temps it won’t display light until a certain temp hits and then the rgb gets turned on.
5/5 especially since I walked in and grabbed one.

I've had this graphics card for over a year now, and it's been working great. I was a little worried about its performance, since it's not one of the top-of-the-line models. But it's been a reliable performer, and I haven't had any problems with it. I have had for over a year no issues.

This was a really nice gpu upgrade for my son's gaming pc. He was using an MSI RTX 3060 TI dual fan graphics card from his first pc in his new build. He's been wanting a more powerful card and this definitely achieved that. This definitely hits those out of reach 4K high/ultra settings without breaking a sweat now!

I wanted to go for a 4090 but decided to get a 4080 and save some money to use on a 13th Gen Intel i9-13900K. Combine the two and you get an amazing gaming experience. I played the Witcher 3 GOTY edition and OMG 4k 60FPS-140FPS is amazing. Officially the best game I've ever played.

At this price point, the card is ok. However, some critical things to note are that the lights only turn on when the card is under load. It stays VERY cool and performs very well. That being said, at this price point I would not recommend this card first hand. Its also relevant to note that the card is massive and you might have trouble fitting it in most cases with a front-mounted radiator.

Cool and quiet with the best anti-sag solution.

Got this as an open box. Everything looked great. Card runs cool and quiet as it’s basically the same cooler for the 4090. I have it slightly undervolted at 950mv and 2715mhz, stays under 62c and only pulls about 260w. The anti sag bracket is the cleanest solution out of all other manufacturers.

I don't know why the 4080s are getting such a bad rap. Its almost impossible to buy a 4090 for less than $2300 and this card is almost 50% faster than a 3090ti and runs cool. I have been playing CODMW2 for two hours will all settings maxed and the temp never exceeded 60°C with no noise.

It is a really big card, even by 3090 standards. Fitting this inside a Lian Li O11 XL required purchasing a separate cable. It is good for 4k and 1440P high refresh gaming. The power efficiency is excellent and it runs quiet and cool. Especially on the thermal junction.

Pairs very well with my 7900x, runs 4K games at 120fps steady with a few bumps every once and a while as expected. Gigabytes OC on the gpu as a whole was great. Didnt have to tweak it at all. Very pleased.

Make sure you measure before buying this. It’s huge. You need a medium sized tower at the minimum. The support bracket didn’t work with the tower, but i had a support bracket already. This offered a 41% increase in gpu power and Fps compared to the 3080ti i had. It runs extremely cool. max i’ve gotten get 60*C. An $899 3080ti * ~40% increase in performance, this should be no >$1260. Also the DLSS 3.0 tech is interesting. You can definitely notice a difference in quality and frames, but the latency is increased

I had originally had a 4080 but returned because I didn’t feel like it was worth 1300 after taxes. A few months later I seen this card open box for 915$ plus tax. Very powerful runs cool very quiet

So happy i had went with an 4080 with my build. This Gigabyte not obly looks awesome but pairs food with a 5800x3d. It stays around 40-50c when gaming most times! No regrets at all

A Great step up from the 3080, but Warning!

Great card, big for a reason. Performance is a step up from the 30 series, depending on the card, but I wouldn't suggest upgrading if you have a 3090. WARNING: Update the card. Fans won't spin, depending on your pc settings, as the gpu will act as if the fans are not necessary. Would've gave it a 3 star rating for it, but it's not as if the gpu was malfunctioning, its just the out of factory settings. Please also take into account the Size of it. You might have to get a larger case to hold this thing!
