Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve been running the MSI NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 16G GAMING TRIO OC for a couple of weeks now, and it’s safe to say—this thing is a monster in all the right ways. Performance: The raw power of this GPU is insane. With the new GDDR7 memory and PCIe Gen 5 interface, load times are basically non-existent, and I’m hitting max settings at 4K in every modern game I’ve thrown at it. Frame rates are buttery smooth—even in demanding titles like Cyberpunk 2077 with ray tracing on. Cooling & Noise: MSI’s GAMING TRIO cooling system does a phenomenal job. Even under load, temps stay well under control, and the fans are whisper-quiet. I’ve seen temps hover around 65-70°C under full load, which is impressive for a card this powerful. Build & Design: It’s a solid, hefty card with a premium feel. The black finish and subtle RGB give it a clean, high-end look without being over the top. Just keep in mind—it’s a big card, so make sure your case has room. Future-Proofing: With PCIe Gen 5 support and 16GB of ultra-fast VRAM, this card is clearly built to last for several years. If you're building a high-end system or upgrading for the long haul, the 5080 is a strong investment. Verdict: Yes, it’s expensive—but you’re getting top-tier performance, excellent thermals, and next-gen features. For serious gamers, content creators, or anyone wanting a future-proof rig, the MSI RTX 5080 GAMING TRIO OC is an easy recommendation.

Upgraded to the MSI Gaming Trio 5080 recently, and honestly, it’s been an absolute game-changer. I was a little apprehensive about all the hype surrounding AI frame generation, but after putting it through real-world gaming tests, I’m fully converted. I’ve been playing titles like Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldur’s Gate 3, and the performance has been incredible. Everything runs buttery smooth, even with settings cranked to ultra, ray tracing maxed out, and all the bells and whistles turned on. The AI frame generation feature sounded gimmicky at first, but it genuinely delivers a noticeable boost—especially in demanding scenes where traditional performance usually dips. Visually, the MSI Gaming Trio 5080 is a beast too: • Triple-fan cooling keeps temps low and stable • RGB lighting is tasteful (not obnoxious) • Build quality feels solid, premium, and reassuring when you’re dropping this kind of cash. Long story short: If you’re on the fence, especially about AI frame generation, don’t be. This card is an absolute monster and it’s genuinely made my gaming experience better than ever.

Beast of a card. Handles 1440p gaming without a sweat. Runs cool and quiet on game mode. Havent ovetclocked, but not sure if i need to! Highly recommended.

This MSI RTX 5080 is an absolute powerhouse! It runs cool, staying below 65°C even under heavy loads, and is practically silent 99% of the time. When the fans do spin up, they’re barely noticeable. Performance-wise, this card handles everything effortlessly—I haven’t even needed to overclock it. My only minor gripe is the RGB; it’s barely visible, which is a missed opportunity for those who love flashy setups. That said, the sleek design and top-tier performance make this an easy recommendation for any gamer or creator looking for a top-tier GPU.

This card has been fantastic. Its a huge upgrade from my 3060 ti and fits perfectly in my case. Its on the bigger side of cards and comes with a stand to help prevent sagging so be aware of that. It is a bit more pricey, over $1500 for a graphics card is a huge ask and I can see it being a deterrent to others.

Great card better that my rx 7900 xtx and performance better and cooler

Great card highly recommend. Hard to get but well worth the effort.

I upgraded from a 307, was able to snag this. It works great. No perfomance issues, great performance, extremly queit, does not run hot. Sits around mid 60’s C under full load while playing graphicslly intense games like Stalker 2 and Kingdom Come 2. I definitely love MSI as well, so I am happy

We all wish the 5080 was better than the 4090. Coming from a 3080 Ti, I am happy with this upgrade. It's stable at +400 Core and +1000 Memory, currently benching around the low end of 4090 benchmarks. It has little more in it to be found, I haven't even pushed it to instability.

Pretty expensive card, but this thing is a beast. Overclocks like a champ and performance is incredible. I wish there was a bit more VRAM in it, and the price is higher than I would like, but I'm happy with it.

Upgraded from a 4080 Suprim and I was fully expecting this card to be just as thick. Although, it is a little too wide and I had to purchase a 90 degree adapter for the power cables. For what this card cost, MSI could have thrown that in! Definitiely worth the buy regardless. Runs smooth and without any issues.

MSI and Best Buy are a winning combination. Great for gaming and regular computing. Make sure you update to the newest drivers and you are off to the races with excellent framerates. While MSRP is a distant dream, I got mine for a good price and wouldn’t have bought it if I didn’t want too. I was at a 7900XTX with 50-75 fps and now get 120-160 on maxed settings

Most quite graphics card out of the 5000 cards. Very great cooling temps and can max out on 4K on most of my PC games which is why i got this. Price is awful though it needs to lower for me to give it a better score

Wasn't my first choice, but it's been solid. Temps are much better than expected (50-60 gaming) and idles are nice and low. Fits Antec C5 fine, I was worried about that. MSI seems to be one of the best AIBs with quality support.

Not that close of the MSRP, but its a good option, if you are coming from a 3080 (like me). Wouldn't recommend to someone coming from a 4080 or 3090, but otherwise, go for it Also, smaller than previous gen, and that's better for me, since im a SFF enthusiast

Excellent card! It runs very cool and very quiet. Idles at just over 30C, and just above 60C when fully loaded. Very impressive! MFG is also a real game changer! Only with that it had a bit more VRAM!

Phenomenal graphics card and fits in smaller cases because of its 2 slot design. Very quiet even when overclocked. For the price of many 5080s on the market as of now, this one if very competitive.

This 5080 model AIB is fast and is one of the faster gpus you can buy. Its worth it saves me time in my productivity apps. Gaming is a breeze.

Card is a beast handles everything at max settings and runs quiet probably the best card for gamers as the 5090 might be overkill for most

Card has performed very well for me with a lot of overclocking headroom. It is pricey but I am happy with it, even while not using frame gen and keeping dlss use to a minimum. Nvidia drivers are a bit wonky at the moment but I haven't had issues.
