ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3080 O10G V2 GAMING Edition graphics card

10 GB 320-bit GDDR6X graphics card

The ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3080 O10G V2 GAMING Edition is a PCI Express 4.0 x16 add-in board built around the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 GPU. It targets gamers and creators who need 10 GB of video memory and 8704 CUDA cores for 4K gaming or GPU-accelerated workloads. The card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate and OpenGL 4.6 for modern API features. It drives up to four displays through two HDMI 2.1 and three DisplayPort 1.4a outputs.

Boost clock 1785 MHz in Gaming Mode

The specification that determines fit is the default boost clock of 1785 MHz in Gaming Mode, with an OC Mode option of 1815 MHz. This frequency, combined with the 19 Gbps effective memory clock across the 320-bit bus, sets the performance envelope for rasterisation and ray-tracing tasks. Buyers should match this clock target to their desired frame-rate goals at 7680 x 4320 maximum resolution. The core runs at 1440 MHz base clock before boost algorithms engage.

Dual ball-bearing fans for sustained loads

Dual ball-bearing fans are designed to maintain airflow during extended gaming or render sessions rather than short bursts. The military-grade certification indicates the components are validated for continuous operation at elevated temperatures. Under sustained load the cooler keeps the GPU near its boost clocks without rapid throttling. Steady power delivery through the PCIe 4.0 x16 interface supports consistent compute throughput for long workloads.
