Graphics card GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 5080 MASTER ICE 16G — 16GB GDDR7, 256-bit, PCIe 5.0, 2805 MHz

The GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 5080 MASTER ICE 16G is a high-performance discrete graphics card built around the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 GPU. It comes with 16 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus and a 30,000 MHz memory clock, a 2805 MHz core frequency and a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface. The card uses a triple-fan WINDFORCE cooling system and provides display outputs via three DisplayPort 2.1a connectors and one HDMI 2.1b connector. It is designed for demanding 4K and 8K gaming, content creation and hardware-accelerated AI workloads.

Advantages

The graphics card combines a modern GPU architecture with high-speed GDDR7 memory and a wide memory bus to deliver high frame rates and fast data throughput. An advanced WINDFORCE cooling solution and reinforced structure support sustained performance under load. Dual BIOS offers selectable performance or silent modes, while integrated features such as an LCD edge display and RGB Halo provide additional configuration and monitoring options. Multiple display outputs and PCIe 5.0 compatibility ensure broad system integration and future-proofing.

Suitable for

• 4K and 8K gaming at high settings
• Video editing and 3D rendering
• Real-time ray tracing and visual effects
