GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 5080 MASTER 16GB GDDR7 Graphics Card

A 360mm flagship-class RTX 5080 with an LCD Edge View screen, dual BIOS and a factory boost of 2805 MHz

Quick Specs

• NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 with 10752 CUDA cores, boosting to 2805 MHz.
• 16GB GDDR7 at 30 Gbps on a 256-bit bus.
• 3 x DisplayPort 2.1b and 1 x HDMI 2.1b, up to four displays.
• 360 x 150 x 75 mm: a very large card, check your case first.
• 850W recommended PSU with one 16-pin (12V-2x6) connector.

Built for 4K at high refresh rates

The AORUS MASTER is GIGABYTE's top-tier take on the RTX 5080, aimed at gamers running 4K monitors or high-refresh 1440p who want maximum settings with ray tracing switched on. Its 2805 MHz boost is well above the 2617 MHz reference figure, and the 16GB of 30 Gbps GDDR7 gives headroom for heavy texture packs and creative work. DLSS 4 support on the Blackwell architecture lifts frame rates further in supported titles. If you game at 1080p, this card is overkill: an RTX 5070 or 5070 Ti will give you most of the experience for far less money.

Size, power and what you need around it

At 360mm long, 150mm tall and 75mm thick, this card needs a full-size case with generous GPU clearance and room below the slot, so measure before you buy. GIGABYTE recommends an 850W PSU, and the card uses a single 16-pin 12V-2x6 connector. A native ATX 3.x supply is the cleanest option, but a 12V-2x6 to 3x PCIe 8-pin adapter is in the box for older units with three free 8-pin leads. The included Versatile VGA holder supports the weight, and the dual BIOS lets you choose between Performance and Silent fan behaviour.

FEATURES:

• LCD Edge View screen on the card edge for custom text, images or monitoring data.
• WINDFORCE cooling with Hawk fans, composite metal grease and server-grade thermal gel.
• RGB Halo lighting, configurable through GIGABYTE Control Center.
• Dual BIOS with Performance and Silent modes.
• Reinforced structure plus a Versatile VGA holder to prevent sag.
