ASUS TUF Gaming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 V2 OC Edition GPU 10GB GDDR6X LHR

Asus TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3080 V2 OC edition
Witness the new era of gaming. The ASUS TUF Gaming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 V2 OC is powered by the NVIDIA Ampere architecture and delivers epic performance that gamers crave for 4K resolution gaming. It’s built with enhanced RT Cores and Tensor Cores, new streaming multiprocessors, and superfast G6X memory for an amazing gaming experience.

The TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3080 has been stripped down and built back up to provide more robust power and cooling. A new all-metal shroud houses three powerful axial-tech fans that utilize durable dual ball fan bearings. Fan rotation has been optimized for reduced turbulence, and a stop mode brings all three fans to a halt at low temps. Beneath, independent heatsinks for the GPU and memory keep thermals under tight control. Factory overclocking to 1815 MHz Boost clock (OC mode) (1710 MHz for reference card) brings you more graphics power out of the box. Additional features, including TUF components, Auto-Extreme Technology, a new GPU bracket, and a backplate vent, make the TUF a proper powerhouse. For builders looking for a new old faithful, this card has your back.

Axial-tech Upgrades
TUF Gaming cards leverage our tried-and-true Axial-tech fan design, with three fans working in tandem to satisfy the thermal demands of NVIDIA’s new high-octane design. The fans rely on dual ball fan bearings to ensure consistent performance and increased longevity compared to sleeve bearings and other bearing types.

New Directions
The two side fans spin counterclockwise to reduce turbulence. And to eliminate unnecessary noise, a stop mode halts all fans when the GPU temp falls below 50 degrees and power consumption is low.

MaxContact
To get heat into the heatsink array efficiently, so that it can be whisked away by the powerful axial-tech fans, we use a manufacturing process that improves the surface smoothness of the heatspreader at the microscopic level. The extra flatness allows for better contact with the die for improved thermal transfer.

2.7-slot Design
The heat spreader draws heat up into heatpipes that carry it through a fin stack that fills most of the card’s large, 2.7-slot footprint. This generation of TUF Gaming graphics cards also feature a dedicated heatsink for VRAM to keep temperatures well under maximum operating specs.
