MSI GeForce GTX 1080 GAMING X 8G

This graphics card uses the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 chipset with 8GB of GDDR5X memory on a 256bit interface. It connects via PCI Express 3.0 16X and draws power through a 6pin plus 8pin connector. The core clock operates at 10010 or 10108MHz. It targets gamers and creators needing high frame rates at 1440p or entry level 4K.

8GB GDDR5X capacity and 7680×4320 headroom

The 8GB frame buffer handles modern 1440p titles with high texture settings and supports a maximum digital resolution of 7680×4320 for multi monitor productivity. At 4K ultra settings the 8GB limit can become a bottleneck in the latest AAA releases requiring larger texture pools. The 256bit bus and GDDR5X speed deliver strong bandwidth for the target resolution range.

PCI Express 3.0 16X interface and dual power

The card requires a motherboard with a PCI Express 3.0 16X slot and a power supply capable of delivering both a 6pin and an 8pin connector simultaneously. Systems limited to PCI Express 2.0 or PSUs lacking the 8pin lead will not run this card at full specification. Verify slot version and cable availability before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will this card fit in a standard ATX case with a 256-bit memory bus?

The card uses a PCI Express 3.0 16X interface and requires both a 6-pin and an 8-pin power connector. Ensure your case has enough length clearance and that your power supply provides those connectors.

Is the 8 GB GDDR5X memory sufficient for 4K gaming at 7680×4320 resolution?

The card supports a maximum resolution of 7680×4320. The 8 GB GDDR5X frame buffer and 256-bit bus handle high-resolution textures, but actual playable frame rates depend on the specific game and detail settings.

What should I check before installing this used GTX 1080?

Verify your motherboard has a PCI Express 3.0 16X slot, your power supply delivers the required 6-pin plus 8-pin connectors, and your case offers sufficient physical space for a dual-slot cooler.
