ASUS NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 8GB TURBO Turing Graphics Card

ASUS RTX 2080 TURBO GPU The ASUS GeForce RTX 2080 TURBO delivers a completely renewed PC gaming experience featuring a cutting-edge shroud which improves cooling for multi-card configurations. Powered by the new NVIDIA Turing GPU design and the innovative RTX platform, RTX graphics cards combine real-time ray tracing, artificial intelligence, and programmable shading. The GPU boost clock guarantees an outstanding gaming performance. Keep things cool with a dual-ball bearing fan with a larger, quieter, dust resistant fan that shifts more air. The ASUS Turbo GeForce RTX 2080 is designed for systems with multiple GPUs or other airflow restricting scenarios by incorporating a host of subtle design optimisations to improve airflow.

Redesigned Shroud The Turbo GeForce® RTX 2080 features a new shroud that's designed to look sharp while optimizing cooling on several fronts. Parts of the shroud surrounding the fan intake have been raised to create a buffer between other cards in SLI setups and space-restricted chassis. This physical buffer is paired with an angled shroud surface that funnels cool air to a large 80mm fan to ensure Turing™'s thermals remain under control in any scenario.

2X Longer Lifespan The Turbo GeForce® RTX 2080 features an 80mm dual-ball bearing fan that is quiet, efficient, and lasts twice as long as sleeve-bearing designs. To further increase reliability, ASUS have designed the fan to be IP5X dust resistant, which means dust won't be able to damage its internal components.

Up to 6 times faster performance The RTX GPUs are powered by the Turing Architecture, this gives you 6x faster performance over previous-generation graphics cards. Turing uses a new 12nm manufacturing process and also brings the power of real-time ray tracing and AI to your games.

World's first for Ray Tracing & GDDR6 The GeForce RTX 2080 delivers truly unique real-time ray-tracing technologies for cutting-edge, hyper-realistic graphics, this means the RTX 2080 is light years ahead of other cards and gives you the most realistic gaming experience ever. The RTX cards also are the first graphics cards to feature GDDR6 memory that has a speed of 14Gbps (14,000 MHz).

BOOST THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR GPU The ASUS GPU Tweak II utility takes graphics card performance tuning and to the next level. It allows you to tweak critical parameters including GPU core clocks, memory frequency, voltage settings, and more with the option to monitor everything in real-time through a customizable on-screen display. From fine-grain performance tuning to advanced fan control, GPU Tweak II has all the tools you need to get the most out of your graphics card.

IMMERSIVE ENTERTAINMENT By combining advanced VR rendering, real-time ray tracing, and AI, the Turbo GeForce® RTX 2080 will take VR to a new level of realism. Cable management is much improved with VirtualLink, which utilizes an Alternate Mode of USB Type-C™ to provide a quick, single-cable connection for next-generation VR headsets.

“Extensive” may be an understatement ASUS use an extensive performance and stress tests begin with the very latest chart-topping titles — like Fortnite, League of Legends, Overwatch and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. ASUS also carry out reliability trials that include a 144-hour stability test and a series of 3DMark benchmarking runs to ensure the card performs well when pushed to the limits.
