GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 5080 Gaming OC 16G Graphics Card, WINDFORCE Cooling System, 16GB 256-bit GDDR7, GV-N5080GAMING OC-16GD Video Card

The product is fantastic and sold as advertised. It has almost been a month and with a cablemod 12vhpwr, no issues. The size is big, so be very whether it fits into your PC case. The c ooling is fantastic at a temperature of 63 C under load. I play cyberpunk and many AAA games without any issues, typically at 1440p ultrawide. The appearance is also beautiful, many people may complain about the previous gigabyte software but I think the GCC is a fantastic addition to the lineup. The value for money is obviously not as good as it used to be, but at the price that I got it at it was acceptable and I was more than happy with what I paid for.

Upgraded from a RTX 3080 12GB with AIO cooler. Firstly, this card is HUGE. I had to relocate the front radiator fans in my case to the outside of the case (which worked fine btw). It's a MSI MPG GUNGNIR 110R mid-tower case, which I think is pretty standard as far as design and size. Second point, this GPU stays COOL. I was pretty concerned that I'd have to purchase an AIO, since the 3080 I upgraded from cooled so much better with one. AIO unnecessary here! Stays right around 60°C at full load, ~65°C after 4-5 hour heat soak in an 85°F room. But it stays cool because of the massive heat pipe/radiator fin setup on it, which is why it's such a huge card. Third point, it's very quiet. If I force it to full fan speed, you can hear it, but even then it's nothing crazy loud in my opinion. It also has never needed to go full speed to cool on it's own. Stays quiet and cool for long periods of 100% GPU load. I use it for 4K gaming while 4K streaming/recording, and highly modified games like Cyberpunk. I was skeptical of frame gen, but at 2x-3x it's barely noticeable quality-wise. 4x and it starts to look bad. DLSS works fine without the frame gen too. As far as raw power (No DLSS, No frame gen), it can pull 60FPS at 4K on a maxed out demanding title. Lastly, price. Was it worth the upgrade? These prices are nuts. Plus I had to upgrade the rest of my 4 year old system so this GPU wouldn't be bottlenecked. But it is what it is, prices aren't ever going back down. This was a huge upgrade from a very capable 3080. I could still return and refund all of it, and I have no plans to do so.

This is my go-to RTX 5080 variant when RGB lighting is an important part of the build. Gigabyte did a great job with the overall design, giving the card enough lighting to add some visual interest without making it look obnoxious or over the top. The lighting works particularly well in a tempered-glass case, and it complements the rest of an RGB-focused build without completely dominating the appearance of the system. Another thing I really appreciate with Gigabyte cards is the VBIOS update process. Gigabyte provides a straightforward and relatively safe tool for handling VBIOS updates, which makes something that can otherwise be intimidating much easier for builders and customers to manage. Based on my experience, this is one of the reasons I generally recommend Gigabyte when I'm putting together RTX 5000-series systems. Having a manufacturer provide an easy way to keep the card's firmware updated gives me additional confidence when using these cards in customer builds. Overall, this is an excellent choice if you want RTX 5080 performance while also paying attention to the aesthetics of the build. The RGB implementation is tasteful rather than excessive, the card has the performance and build quality you'd expect, and Gigabyte's approach to VBIOS updates is a nice bonus. For customers who want a high-end GPU that looks great without turning their PC into a glowing light show, this is one of my favorite RTX 5080 variants.

I bought this to start my new build, my old pc had a 4060 in it, I started having pc problems with my old build so I made a better pc and added this gigabyte geforce rtx 5080 its really good, the temperature is very cool, I played the finals as a test and it stayed in the 50s way better then my 4060 temperature which was in the 70 some times 80, the card size is huge, so if u dont have at least a atx case it will be a tight fit, the build quality is stunning, three fan with rgb light in the fans and on top for customization and it was very quiet, at times I even questioned if it was still on or not, everything come brand new

I just received this card 24 hours ago, and if anything changes I'll update this review. I upgraded from an eVGA 3090 Ti to this and I'm extremely pleased with the results. It's obviously a solid improvement over what I had, and fit in my case (Hyte Y70) with no issues whatsoever. The card is pretty chonky so make sure you have the room to fit it, installation was a breeze and all I needed to do after the usual installation faffing around was to do a clean install of the drivers to support the 5080, that was all handled well by the Nvidia app and I'm plenty happy with how that all went. Performance is fantastic, and it's incredibly easy to overclock. I overclocked the GPU with the Gigabyte utility in just a few clicks and it runs absolutely beautifully at 3150MHz on the GPU and 3000MHz on the memory (stock). No problems, no crashes it just works. If you're coming from a 3000 series card like I was this is a solid investment and I highly recommend this as an upgrade. Even if you don't overclock this I think you'll be plenty happy with it's performance improvement over your 3000 series card. I can't comment on improvement over an equivalent 4000 series card personally, but I've heard the 5080 doesn't offer much increased performance over the 4080 for the money. But that said, I can only quote what I have heard from several sources. If I had one complaint, the RGB on the card is pretty lack luster. Even at full brightness the fan LED's are pretty unimpressive, and the LED's on the top aren't anything to write home about either. If you're looking for a blinging card with a lot of RGB this card is definitely not that. But if you're more concerned about price to performance this is a good option among the larger more well known brands. I also didn't see anything in a comparison that said the Aorus Master was any better performing, and it's $100 more for some lights and a screen you'll never really need. This seemed like the better option since I already had enough LEDs in my case. At this point I highly recommend this card for anyone upgrading or otherwise seriously considering a solid 5080 solution.

Bought this card for $1200 back in 11-30-2025 with a $250 gift card it was only $1040. This card was worth every penny , super quiet and handles everything I through at it. I’m not doing any extra OC just leaving it at its base because all I do is game @4k I’d buy this video card again at the price I got it for, I wouldn’t say it’s worth the $1500 it is at the time of this review. It looks amazing , runs cool out the box, HUGE compared to the 3060ti I upgraded from. Absolutely MASSIVE compared to my old 1050ti gaming Oc lol. I Love it.

Best Graphics Card I've Ever Owned

The package arrived obviously previously opened. Tamper seals were tampered with, power adapter was missing, screws missing, and the GPU housing was rattling like an outhouse in a twister. Needless to say, I sent it back. Sadly, Gigabyte seems to be going down hill these past few years. I used to build all my systems from their components, but lately, the quality is just not there anymore.

L'articolo è arrivato nella scatola aperta, con i sigilli della protezione antistatica aperti, mancava l'adattatore 12v-2x16 per alimentare la GPU, la protezione del connettore Pci-Express era in fondo alla scatola e mancavano le protezioni per le porte DP e HDMI. Una scheda palesemente usata. Resa subito.

It's gigantic as compared to 5060, make sure to do your dimensions and workaround if u going for in cabinet, open rig with little twitch and boom you ready to go, beast of a card 👌🏽🫰🏽

tres bonne carte graphique, apres plusieurs mois d'utilisation, vraiment rien a dire elle est top !

Nice design, pretty quiet, run cool. Good model for OC with cap TDP at 125% in afterburner.

Fan tuning is a must in my case because between 1450 and 1600 there is a annoying resonance from the fans. If you do not fan tune, undervolting (925mV) will help as the temps will remain between 60 and 65 (during gameplay) and therefore the fans will not really go over 1300. Thankfully zero coil whine can be heard. Thermally it runs very efficiently and inserting it into my case has not had an impact on the temps of all the other components.And I was running a 2070 super before this! Other than that its a huge sized card that has very impressive performance.
