Unboxing this graphics card was definitely surprising - coming from a 3080 that I thought was massive, this card is even bigger. However the ironic thing is that the card itself is actually smaller - the heatsink is extremely large. It fits in my Fractal Torrent case as a "snug fit" (and it's a fairly large case) with a 420mm AIO in front, and not sure if it would fit in any smaller cases. So far it has performed without a hitch - running fairly quiet and cool. One small note is that if you do want to disable the LEDs, you can do so by unplugging it from the header - on the bottom of the card near the PCIe connector, you will see two black plugs. The LED is the smaller of the two. *Doing so may void your warranty*.

Performance: I picked up the ASUS TUF Gaming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER Overclock from Best Buy, and it has completely transformed my gaming setup. This monster card handles anything I throw at it with ease, delivering silky-smooth performance at 4K with all the bells and whistles like ray tracing enabled. The factory overclock is a nice touch, giving you that extra boost out of the box. DLSS 3 support means I can push visuals further without a drop in frame rates - it's like magic. Cooling and Build Quality: The cooling on this card is top-notch. Those Axial-tech fans keep everything whisper-quiet even under load - seriously impressive. The build quality screams durability; you can tell ASUS didn't cut corners here. The metal exoskeleton not only looks tough but seems to help with cooling as well. I've run it through some grueling sessions, and it's stayed cool and stable. Design and Aesthetics: The aesthetics of this card are perfect for any build - sleek, black, and with just the right amount of RGB to make it pop without being gaudy. It's a large card, so make sure your case has the room, but it's worth it for the performance and look. The TUF branding adds a nice touch of style and substance. Software and Overclocking: Best Buy included the ASUS GPU Tweak III software, which is user-friendly and lets you push this beast even further if you're into overclocking. Monitoring your system's health is a breeze with this software, and everything integrates well with NVIDIA's latest drivers, ensuring you're always up to date. Value: At Best Buy, this GPU feels like a steal for the performance it delivers. If you're looking for an upgrade that will last, this is it. The price might seem high, but for what you're getting in terms of performance, build quality, and future-proofing, it's an investment that pays off every time you boot up your favorite game. Conclusion: I can't recommend the ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 4080 SUPER from Best Buy enough. It's an absolute powerhouse that has exceeded all my expectations. From performance to cooling, design to value, this card checks all the boxes for a top-tier gaming experience. If you're serious about gaming, this GPU is a must-buy. Five stars from me!

This GPU is a 1440p beast!! It is a beefy graphics card but performance and temps are incredibly good. Could be priced better but if you got the money you can’t go wrong with this gpu. Make sure that your case can fit this gpu the power cable adds about 2 inches in width.

This card is a beast. I started with a 4070 Super and returned and exchanged if for this. Boy am I glad I did. It handles anything i throw at it. It has two operating modes, Performance and quiet. Even in performance mode it runs cool and quiet. Does 4k Gaming in Microsoft flight Simulator easily. 4k Video editing which I have not tried yet, should be a breeze. This card is well worth the price. Get this graphics card you won't be sorry. Just make sure you have the case to fit it, it's huge. It also requires an 850W power supply. Doesn't have a lot of pretty RGB colors but well worth the investment.

This card is the cherry on top despite its design and build. On performance mode, it’s still incredibly quiet. For someone who is developing and using URE5, this card is a must and is most definitely worth the price. As far as gaming, I’ve only tested a few and it destroyed 4k heavy loads ultra settings avg 80-144hz(max rfr of monitor). Look, if you want to wait for the 5000 series, be my guest but the price to performance ratio will not be pleasant to the eye. This card is a flagship of a card in every aspect. Premium to the core and Best Buy is a trust worthy source to pick this card from. Trust me, it’s worth the investment over the long run.
