    Great at MSRP

    got the PNY GeForce RTX 5080 16GB OC at MSRP and it’s been excellent. Performance is outstanding for 1440p and 4K gaming, with smooth frame rates and great ray tracing thanks to DLSS. The triple-fan cooler keeps temps low and stays fairly quiet even under load. Build quality is solid, and the factory overclock gives a nice boost out of the box. No flashy RGB, but I like the clean black look. Overall, an amazing card for the price if you can get it at MSRP.

    Provides terrific graphics, excellent power consumption and no temperature issues. Would buy another if I needed one. Initially upgraded my 4060 to this 5080 to enhance my MSFS 2024 experience. Did not regret that decision. Still wildly priced across the market, but Best Buy had the best (most appropriate) price.

    Built my own PC for Black Friday and got this PNY RTX 5080 as my GPU got a great price. Shipped and was at my door in a few days. Works great and runs cool. Looks great and runs quite. No annoying RGB was a plus.

    This card delivers amazing performance at under half the price of the 5090! Great card unless you, for some reason, need more performance. Something to keep in mind is that higher end 50 series cards are really big and heavy, so make sure it fits your case. This specific one includes a sag bracket, which is nice.

    Great OC card

    Really love this card. An OC card for MSRP that runs great! It boosts to around 2900mhz. The fans are also very quiet on performance mode with stock fan curve. It only has some coil whine, but that's easily drowned out by speakers or headphones. Would definitely recommend. It was a good upgrade from an RTX 3080ti.

    Amazing Card. I heard mixed reviews about how compared to its previous generation, it wasnt an upgrade or worth the price, cant tell about that. however for those like me coming from older cards, its a huge improvement i highly recommend AT MSRP, i dont think you should get a 5080 no matter how better cooling or in looks it is, if it is over its msrp. to put it simple, it is a $999 card but fits better in the low 900 range imo, i think people would be more enthusiastic about this card if it had a $929.99 pricetag. Definitely worth it if they add freebies like the Bordelands 4 game, sadly i got it right before the bundle, so i wouldn't miss that. Haven't had any issues since i bought it, its quiet, i barely hear it, and for the smaller case i have it in, its not getting as hot or warm as i thought itd get. If you really want one, this one is great, if you want looks, wait for them to drop in price or wait for the super variants and hope they stay the same price. you wont regret it if you do your research and budget for it, just make sure youre patient its big purchase, do your due diligence. look at 50 youtube videos about it.

    Works perfect in every game, quiet and sleek in a non- RGB build, it is very big though so make sure it will fit in your case

    Honestly a really good and well made gpu for the price, although I got a bit unlucky. I ended up getting a card with coil whine but it doesn’t bother me much, other than that it keeps really cool and the performance is fast and smooth. The design is mesmerizing as well

    What a card

    Very nice GPU. Very big GPU. This PNY card runs very smoothly, and very quietly as well. Under 100% load, 4k high + DLSS this card tops out at around 100-150 fps, for games like War Thunder and Arc Raiders, and the fans barely make a noise. LoL gets upwards of 500fps but that is normal. A little scary putting this card into the motherboard because the metal shroud of the display ports is very long, and protrudes into the case just behind the motherboard, at first I thought my NZXT h9 could not fit the card. I am NOT using the included daisy chain cable, instead using the rm850x provided 12v cable, hopefully it does not melt.

    This card is top of the line. Great performance. RGB for this price point would have been better but cooling performance is great. Really quiet operation and stays below 54 degrees celcuis for sustain loads.

    What can i say? This graphics card just works great. I havent noticed any noise at all. Maxed out all settings in poe 2 and usually sustain 120+ fps (2k resolution), its dropped to 80 fps on occasion but i think its a game optimization issue. Battlefield 6 maxed out i ususlly sustain about the same fps or more. I like that there arent a bunch of lights as well. I paired this with a core ultra 265. Awesome build!

    Great Generational Upgrade!

    The PNY RTX 5080 offers a compelling options for gamers wanting to get access to the new 4x Frame Generation features exclusive to the 50 series Nvidia cards. It not only offers great performance in both rasterization and ray tracing gaming, it also stays extremely quiet and cool (never exceeded 68c while gaming) due to the robust heatsink/cooling design PNY decided to go with this card. Being that this card is priced exactly at $1000 MSRP I don’t have many gripes with this card, other than not having any RGB (but that’s a personal preference). I would highly recommend this card to anyone looking to pickup this option as a nice upgrade to their systems. It absolutely rips through any task you throw at it, even a bit of AI if desired without pulling a sweat. Honestly can’t go wrong with this card, given that other RTX 5080 offerings essentially offer the same exact thing but end up costing 50% more My only gripe with this card individually is that is only has a total of 16GB of GDDR7 of memory instead of 24GB or more VRAM. That’s not a fault of PNY but rather Nvidia themselves as PNY or any board partners don’t have access to modify the VRAM on the card. As well as how massive this card is, but again that’s due to shear amount of watts this card can pool if you let it, I wouldn’t fault PNY for that.

    Significant step up from the previous generation. Runs cool and quiet with the triple fan setup. 16GB of VRAM handles everything I’ve thrown at it. Worth the upgrade if you’re coming from a 30 or 40 series card.

    Highly performant gpu that I stably overclocked to 450mhz above stock. Stays cool and quiet during gameplay. Best value for 5080 at this price point. Highly recommended!

    Alright, so we all know, the computer hardware market is absolutely insane right now, so I'm not going to judge this card for being expensive, because everything is expensive right now. With that in mind, I'd be a flat out liar if I said I didn't love this card, and a bigger liar if I said I wasn't surprised by just how well it handles. The PNY RTX 5080 is pretty much the cheapest 5080 you can find in terms of price, unless you get struck by lightning three times in the same place and magically find a founders edition. Usually when one things cheaper price, they figure corners cut. The only real corners cut here is a lack of RGB lighting, because beyond that there's nothing missing here. The cooler is surprisingly stout for a "budget" 5080. In my system running full tilt playing RE9 at 5120x1440 with path tracing on the max core temp I hit was 64ºC. Max temp I've seen the ram hit is 67ºC. This is with the fans never going above 34%. It cannot be heard over the rest of my system, and I run all my fans at low speed in my case. In terms of performance, this guy packs a punch. Compared to my prior RTX 3090 Strix, which was a beast of an overclocker, the minimum gain I've seen is 50%, with closer to 80-100% once overclocked. It's handled every single game I've thrown at it and done so silently. No coil whine. No fan noise. Just pure power. Overclocking it does fairly well. Not quite as far as some of the cards with extended power limits, as this card can only boost power limit by 10%. In game mine will boost somewhere between 3.1ghz and 3.2ghz on the core and +3000mhz on the ram with an undervolt applied at .975mV. That gives it a pretty solid boost over the stock performance without causing much of a difference in temps compared to stock. Your mileage of course may vary in this regard. Overall, I have no regrets in my upgrade to this card. It's just a straight up beast that runs cool and quiet. It won't win any awards for looks, but who cares if the card doesn't look pretty when it performs like this?

    I previously had a 4080 ventus oc from MSI. Both that card and this are pretty similar in terms of looking plain and simple. I have to say I prefer the all black stealth look of this card vs the ventus. It is big, though, but it honestly runs decently cool (never above 65 for me) and at MSRP, you just can't beat it. All the other 5080s just have things you don't need for the extra price, and even if you don't get a golden sample, this card still easily over clocks at least 10% with a click of a button.

    Fantastic Purchase - One of the Best GP

    **Rating:** 5 out of 5 stars I recently picked up the PNY GeForce RTX 5080 16GB OC Triple Fan from Best Buy, and I'm extremely happy with this purchase! This card is an absolute beast and easily one of the best graphics cards available on the market right now. The build quality feels premium right out of the box. The triple-fan cooler keeps temperatures low even during heavy gaming sessions with ray tracing maxed out, and it's quieter than I expected. The Blackwell architecture, 16GB of fast GDDR7 memory, and DLSS 4 make everything run buttery smooth—huge frame rate boosts, incredible ray tracing, and AI upscaling that looks better than native in many cases. It's a massive upgrade from my previous card. Games that used to struggle at ultra settings now feel effortless, and it's future-proofed for the next couple of years at least. Overclocking headroom is solid too. Shipping from Best Buy was quick, arrived well-packaged, and the price felt fair for what you're getting. If you're looking for a top-tier 50-series card without crazy premium prices, this PNY RTX 5080 is a great choice. Highly recommend—totally worth it! Would recommend to a friend? Yes

    In love with the PNY 5080. Coming from a RTX 4060 is game changing and with this model actually being MSRP really helped me decide which one to get. I enjoy the low temps and quiet fans when under load. I was also impressed with how far I could push it in 4k.

    Works as it should, super fast paired with amd 9800x3d. Overkill and ultra settings on every game I’ve tried and still getting 200+ fps at 2k. No fancy frills but it’s not needed. The metal backplate and large cooling fans make this worth it especially at msrp
