Gigabyte Eagle series RTX 4080 Shows Up in leaked photos
The EAGLE series will be Gigabyte's fourth triple-fan design, following the WindForce, Gaming, and AORUS series. The new design is significantly larger than the predecessor (3080 series).
The card now has 3.5 slots and the same 110mm fan design as the RTX 4090 Gaming OC cards. Gigabyte will, however, use the same cooler for the 4090 and 4080 Eagle series. The card has a single 16-pin power connector as well as the standard display output configuration of 3x DP 1.4a + 1x HDMI 2.1. It should be noted that the 3080 Eagle series had an extra DisplayPort, but this is no longer the case for any Gigabyte RTX 40 model. The Gigabyte RTX 4080 EAGLE will be factory-overclocked, but the exact clocks have yet to be confirmed. The AD103 GPU has 9728 CUDA cores and 16GB of GDDR6X memory in this model. Due to NVIDIA's cancellation of this SKU, there will be no 12GB variant.
NVIDIA plans to release the RTX 4080 on November 16th for $1,199. The RTX 4080 Eagle non-OC is very likely to launch at MSRP because it is one of the lowest tiers in the Gigabyte lineup.

Sorry in advance for my language, but those guys in Nvidia and elsewhere that trying to convince us we need new PSU with new cables and stuff really need a kick in the but. I mean like seriously, is not enough that everything and every manufacturer has gone crazy high with their prices, we need a new psu on top of that! Even in 4090 which is power hungry monster, the new adapter cables are not necessary, they could have gone with 3x8 pin connectors like we have seen lot of times in the past. Thumbs up to corsair and other psu manufactures that offer cables with 12pin connectors to their existing psu's and don't enforce PSU switch for no reason.

I hope they include a beefed-up 12pin plug adapter.

Everybody complains about the 12pin connector. Alright, let's take it for what it is.
Are AIBs even allowed to build cards with 8pins if they decided to? Doesn't Nvidia force them to use those by their rules?

It may be in their best interest to consider a right angle adapter with new cards. I personally use them to keep my cable runs clean and to not get in the way of tubing for my card. My cables have no bend at the card itself and it maintains a clean appearance.

Another card with 12PIN connector. That's not what I wanted to see.
