Verdict

The ASUS ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER 16GB GDDR6X OC Edition is a high-performance graphics card built on the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture, featuring 10,240 CUDA cores and an overclocked boost clock of 2,640 MHz. Designed with a sleek, minimalist aesthetic for creators and gamers alike, it features 16GB of high-speed GDDR6X memory on a 256-bit interface, providing up to 736 GB/s bandwidth. Its compact 2.5-slot design (300mm length) and triple Axial-tech fans make it an ideal choice for small-form-factor (SFF) builds, offering superior 4K gaming and professional ray-tracing performance via 3rd Gen RT and 4th Gen Tensor cores. Main pros include its professional no-RGB design, excellent compatibility with SFF cases, and whisper-quiet operation at low temperatures. However, potential cons include a premium price point compared to other models and reports of coil whine under high load.
