This card is an improvement to my 4070S I had before. Not just the small hardware upgrade, but the extra VRAM help me push solid FPS numbers. I mostly play racing sims and on max settings I'm now in the solid 160+ FPS. The new Doom game is playing at over 200 FPS on ultra nightmare settings. I'm really enjoying it and especially that it was at msrp at Bestbuy.

I was one of the lucky ones online to "Beat the Bots" on Roll Out day. With that said, on my first computer build of my life, I put a great deal of emphasis on all other components except my graphics card in 2022. I was able to get a Founders Edition 4070 from Best Buy for $500. So, I'm no expert, but for the novice, the 5080 has a considerable notice of quality and simple beauty for the games I play. After watching all the "PHD Master IT Technicians" bash the 50 series launch and disputing the numbers from the company. I noticed none of them answered the most important question that was never asked " How did the game look with your own eyes? Yes Data matters but I would rather my personal interaction judge before numbers influence my perception.
Bottom line, be patient for Best Buy to keep making drops. It will happen. For this 59 year old Gamer, Work It.
For the record, I play the following games: Assetto Corsa, Assetto Corsa Competizione, Assetto Corsa Evo, Le Mans Ultimate, and F1 24. All sim racing games with a complete Fanatec Setup.

Best card for the money if you can secure one for MSRP. While generational uplift is small if you are coming from a 30 series the difference is night and day. From a 3060ti to this is mind blowing. Only flaw it has is the low vram. SFF sizing is amazing too.

The only 5080 worth getting with these high prices. The gou performs and excellent with temperatures in the mid to high 50s always so cooling is great on it. Always am able to play at max settings with high fps. Dont regret this buy at all

Really the best Rtx 5080 you can buy.
It’s small in size but pack a punch in all AAA games.
While still maintaining cool temps you really can’t ask for a better gpu.

Gets a lot of hate but at msrp it is an amazing card. I don’t see how a cheaper 80 series card than last gen with better technology can get so much hate. Quite efficient and an absolute monster. 3rd best gpu out there. And with frame gen it’s honestly better than the 4090.

Couldnt decide between keeping a 4080 super or this 5080. Went for the 5080 and its excedeed my expectation so far. 240-280 fps in CoD. Can run any game in overkill/ultra graphics.

So far loving it. Upgraded from a 4070ti & its been worth it. I will say, it is a bit pricey, but its been worth it for me. Being able to game on my lg c2 oled @4k 120hz has been awesome. Also love how sleek & slim the design is. Looks cold in pc.

Works perfectly. May sell it for a super down the line but no errors so far. Good card, wouldnt refommend if you dont have a high refresh rate 1440p monitor or 4k, go with 5070 ti instead.

For the price this GPU can't be beat IMO. Yes it relies more on frame gen to get the higher fps, but I don't do competitive gaming so it's fine for me and keep temps manageable in a SFF. Previously had a 4090 and while the 5080 is technically a downgrade, as a casual gamer I rarely notice the difference.

I have previously owned an AMD XFX RX7900XTX (Magnetic Air 24GB) as my main and both are great, but this card handles raytracing unlike any card I've owned. it's not only powerful and more efficient compared to my 7900 xtx but it also has a great design for swapping onto different cases. Options I have with card include the Low-Profile cases like the M2 Grater to its dimensions 2 slot width and the End screws to attach an anti-sag kit.

Snagging this at msrp makes the 5080 100% worth it. Super quiet, clean look, with overkill power. I got this right before the 50 series jumped up in price so if this goes above the $999 msrp, I wouldn’t get it.

I was lucky enough to get one of these on launch day and I'm very glad I did! This was a huge upgrade for me over the RTX4060 and I can pay anything at high settings with a great frame rate. Expensive but worth it if you are a gamer.

What a beast of a gpu! I upgraded from a 4070 ti and immediately noticed a significant improvement in every game. I got lucky and snatched one with 0 coil whine and runs cool as a cucumber!

An excellent GPU that is about $200 too expensive. It performs well with both an undervolt and an overclock. The two slot design allows it to fit in really small cases. Only issue I have had with it is coil whine under load.
