From top to bottom, the ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3080 has been radically improved to accommodate the impressive new NVIDIA Ampere architecture and bring the next wave of gaming performance innovations to market. A fresh design and more metal surround a group of Axial-Tech fans. The unified fan layout from the previous generation has been replaced by a new rotation scheme and specific tasks for the main and auxiliary fans. Beneath the blades lies a larger, impressive heatsink that is ready for the most demanding thermal loads. The PCB has some new tricks up its sleeve, and the backplate has also received some performance-enhancing changes. You’ve been waiting for the latest and greatest in graphics card design - and here it is.
