GeForce GTX 1080 8GB for high-refresh gaming

The PNY XLR8 Gaming Overclocked card targets enthusiasts who want strong 1440p frame rates and entry-level 4K capability. It ships with a factory boost clock of 1848 MHz and 2560 CUDA cores. The 8GB GDDR5X frame buffer connects over a 256-bit bus. DirectX 12 and OpenGL 4.5 support cover modern APIs.

PCIe 3.0 x16 slot and triple-fan clearance

Installation requires a PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot and enough case length for a triple-fan cooler. One HDMI 2.0b port and three DisplayPort 1.4 outputs drive up to four displays at 7680 x 4320. An SLI HB bridge connector allows a second card for multi-GPU scaling. The card draws power from the slot and onboard connectors.

Sustained clocks under triple-fan airflow

The triple-fan cooler keeps the GPU near its 1848 MHz boost during extended sessions rather than throttling after a short burst. GDDR5X memory runs at its rated speed without thermal slowdown. The factory overclock is validated through binning so the card maintains higher average frequencies in long workloads. Stable thermals preserve consistent frame pacing.

Questions about this item

What is the boost clock that the GPU reaches under sustained heavy load?

The factory overclocked boost clock is 1759 MHz, which the card targets during extended gaming sessions.

How loud or hot does the triple-fan cooler get when the card runs all day?

The dual-fan XLR8 cooler is designed for stable low-power operation at the 1759 MHz boost clock, keeping thermals and noise controlled under continuous load.

Which power connectors must my PSU already provide for this card to work?

The card requires a PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot and standard PCIe power cables from your supply; no proprietary connectors are used.
