EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB GDDR5X
The EVGA ACX 3.0 cooler and 1847MHz boost clock keep this Pascal-based card running cool and quiet under load. Its 8GB of GDDR5X memory on a 256-bit bus still delivers solid 1440p gaming performance, making it a strong value on the refurbished market. This card is best for budget-conscious 1080p and 1440p gamers upgrading from much older hardware.
