GeForce RTX 3080 Ti has been fitted with 12 Gigabytes of GDDR6X memory; it runs at 19 Gbps, which is a data rate most of us can identify with compared to the last-gen products. We'll show you the full specification details on the next pages. BTW, we often ask, but yes, these photos are made with our own photos shoot and are not provided externally.

The reference RTX 3060 Ti, 3070, 3080, 3080 Ti, and 3090 cards all get HDMI 2.1 connectors and the latest iteration in DisplayPort. The reference cards also get the new 12-pin power connecter header (converter cable included feeds from two 8-pin connectors). Mind you that I do refer to the FE editions here. AIB partner cards are free to choose and use whatever they deem applicable. MSI opts for three 8-pin PEG power connectors.

The IO panel is used as an air vent and shows four display connectors, three DisplayPort 1.4, and one HDMI 2.1 connector that will bring 8K 60 Hz HDR to a single HDMI cable. No more USB type-C VirtualLink connector, as that one is going the way of the dodo.

The card has three fans and uses the traditional power connector design, e.g., 8-pin, but now three. The card has a nice stylish-looking shroud with underneath it that muscular cooler. The design has some premium features, the updated TRI FROZR cooler, of course, but the fans are based on the latest TORX FAN v4.0 design. Interesting is the backside, as it reveals an aluminum backplate, which should help provide passive thermal conduction properties towards the card.

Everything on a hardware level has been improved with the SUPRIM X. Thickened copper (2oz) traces inside the PCB, brushed aluminum plating with precision-cut edges on the cooler's exterior. Then the dual BIOS being set to Silent out of the box for comfort (we recommend keeping it at that setting).
