NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER Founders Edition 16GB GDDR6X
The 16GB GDDR6X frame buffer and 2.55 GHz boost clock on the AD103 chip deliver high frame rates at 1440p, while the Founders Edition cooler keeps the 350W TDP in check across its 3-slot design. DLSS 3 frame generation and 3rd-gen ray tracing cores provide a tangible performance uplift in supported titles, and the dual axial fan system maintains quiet operation under load. This card is best for 1440p gamers who want high refresh rate ray tracing without stepping up to the flagship RTX 4090.
