The Ampere series will replace the Turing lineup, which will fade out of the market as these cards sit right on top of their prices yet are much faster. The GeForce RTX 3080 has 8704 stream/shader processors. The reference 3080 cards have a peak boost clock up-to 1.71 GHz, with the base clock hovering in the 1.44 GHz domain.
- Out of the box performance for a reference card is: 1710 MHz Boost / 19 Gbps GDDR6X
- This card out of the box performance is: 1905 MHz Boost / 19 Gbps GDDR6X (default is configured at silent BIOS mode)
Clock frequency means squat these days as the card runs into limiters. The power limiter seems to give a bit more leech for this card, as it has a rated 370W power design. Weighing in at almost 1.9kg, the card is a bit heavy, so MSI will include a support bracket that can be attached to your PC case for additional graphics card reinforcement.
