Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 8GB GDDR6
The Turing-based RTX 2080 Super chip and 8GB of GDDR6 memory with 496 GB/s bandwidth deliver solid 1080p and capable 1440p gaming with ray tracing support. Its blower-style turbo fan design exhausts heat directly out of the case, making it a practical choice for small form factor or multi-GPU builds despite the 250W TDP. This card is best for compact PC builders who need reliable 1080p gaming performance and ray tracing in tight spaces.

Resumo
The 30-Second Version
The Gigabyte RTX 2080 SUPER Turbo is a loud, hot, outdated card that only makes sense for one very specific build. If you don't need a blower, run away.
Pros & Cons
Prós
- Blower design actually works for ITX builds
- 8GB GDDR6 with solid 496 GB/s bandwidth
- Ray tracing support, even if it's first-gen
- Handles 1440p gaming without breaking a sweat
Contras
- Single fan is obnoxiously loud under load
- 250W TDP with mediocre cooling
- Efficiency and thermals are near the bottom
- Price is all over the place, and often way too high

Performance
The 2080 SUPER chip itself is no slouch. 11.15 FP32 TFLOPS and 496 GB/s of memory bandwidth put it in the middle of the pack for raster work, and it'll push 1440p gaming fine. But the Turbo cooler holds it back. That single fan spins up hard under load, and the thermal percentile sits near the bottom of our database. You're trading noise for form factor.

vs Competition
Against the ASUS PRIME RTX 5080 or MSI Ventus RTX 5070 Ti, this card gets absolutely smoked. Those are two generations newer with 16GB of VRAM and far better efficiency. The ZOTAC APOCALYPSE and Sapphire NITRO+ also outclass it in every metric. The only edge the Gigabyte has is the blower form factor, and that's a niche within a niche.

Preço
Value & Pricing
At $849 USD, this is a tough sell. You can get a used RTX 3070 or even a 3080 for less money with way better performance and cooling. The only reason to buy this is if you specifically need a blower card and can find it cheap. Otherwise, skip it.

Overview
The Gigabyte RTX 2080 SUPER Turbo is a weird one. It's a Turing card from 2019 that still shows up in listings, and the single blower fan is the whole story here. The one thing to know: it's loud. Really loud. But if you need a blower card for a small ITX case, it's one of the few options left.
Common Questions
Q: Is this card good for 1440p gaming?
Yeah, it'll do 1440p fine. The 2080 SUPER chip is still capable, and you'll hit 60+ fps in most games at high settings. Just wear headphones.
Q: Why is this card so loud?
It's a blower-style cooler with a single fan. That design is meant to exhaust heat out the back of the case, which is great for small ITX builds, but it means the fan has to spin fast and hard to keep the 250W TDP in check.
Q: Is the RTX 2080 SUPER still worth buying in 2025?
Not at the prices we're seeing. You can get newer cards with more VRAM and better ray tracing for less. The only reason to grab this is if you specifically need a blower card for a tiny case.
Who Should Skip This
If you're looking for a quiet card or a good value, this isn't it. Go get a used RTX 3070 or 3080 instead. If you want new, the RTX 5070 Ti or even a 4070 SUPER will run circles around this thing for similar money.
Verdict
Don't buy this unless you have a very specific ITX case that requires a blower card and you find it for under $300. Otherwise, there are way better options for the money.
