MSI GeForce RTX 5080 16G EXPERT OC graphics card

SKU CH-M88Q-NEMDM

Delivers 16 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus with 10752 CUDA cores, Fifth-Gen Tensor cores and DLSS 4 for high-resolution gaming and AI workloads

  • Boost clock reaches 2730 MHz for high frame rates
  • 10752 CUDA cores accelerate compute and rendering workloads
  • 16 GB GDDR7 memory at 30 Gbps feeds data-hungry 4K and 8K textures
  • FLOW FROZR 2 cooling keeps temperatures low under 360 W load
  • HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 2.1 drive up to four 7680 x 4320 displays

EXPERT OC 16 GB GDDR7

The MSI GeForce RTX 5080 16G EXPERT OC is a graphics card built for professionals and enthusiasts who need high compute density. It pairs the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 GPU with 16 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus running at 30 Gbps. The board delivers 10752 CUDA cores and boost clocks up to 2730 MHz via MSI Center for demanding creative and AI workloads.

FLOW FROZR 2 thermal design

The FLOW FROZR 2 cooler is engineered for silence and performance under sustained 360 W loads. A single 16-pin power connector feeds the card, while an 850 W PSU is recommended for stable system operation. The triple-slot frame measures 319 x 150 x 60 mm and weighs 1898 g, fitting standard ATX builds without exotic clearance requirements.

Upgrade from prior 8K-ready GPUs

This card replaces earlier flagship models when 30 Gbps memory bandwidth and PCI Express Gen 5 x16 throughput become bottlenecks. The jump is worth it for workflows that saturate 16 GB frame buffers at 7680 x 4320 resolution or require FP4 Tensor acceleration for DLSS 4 pipelines. HDMI 2.1b and DisplayPort 2.1b outputs drive four simultaneous displays at 4K 480 Hz or 8K 120 Hz HDR.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 16-pin power connector on the GeForce RTX 5080 16G EXPERT OC?

Plug the single 16-pin connector firmly until it clicks; the card draws 360 W so your PSU must supply at least 850 W and the cable must be fully seated to avoid melting.

What maintenance will the FLOW FROZR 2 cooler need later?

Dust the heatsink fins and three fans every few months with compressed air; the thermal paste and pads are not user-serviceable, so if temperatures rise unexpectedly the card needs professional service.

What limit appears first when the RTX 5080 16G EXPERT OC runs at 2730 MHz boost for long periods?

The 360 W power limit is reached first; the 16-pin connector and 850 W PSU recommendation cap sustained clocks before the 30 Gbps GDDR7 or 256-bit bus become bottlenecks.
