MSI bumps the boost frequency up from 1,695MHz to 1,785MHz – the highest we’ve tested to date – and that extra bit of headroom is reflected in our benchmarks, where the Gaming X Trio typically makes its way to the top of the charts. There’s no overclock on memory, but you could argue there’s no need.

I think a lot of people expected Nvidia to pull something similar off with the RTX30 -series but so far what we’ve got is far more appealing. Today I am reviewing the Gigabyte RTX 3080 Eagle OC. As the name implies this is a factory overclocked RTX3080 that also comes with the Windforce E 3X Cooling System with alternate spinning fans.

ASUS doesn’t skimp on its ROG Strix family of cards, which is one of the first super high-end custom RTX 3080s through my lab (apart from MSI’s custom RTX 3080 GAMING X TRIO).

Another day, another NVIDIA shortage…
“I believe that demand will outstrip all of our supply through the year,” Huang said, “Remember, we’re also going into the double-whammy. The double-whammy is the holiday season. Even before the holiday season, we were doing incredibly well, and then you add on top of it the ‘Ampere factor,’ and then you add on top of that the ‘Ampere holiday factor,’ and we’re going to have a really really big Q4 season.”

Every board partner building RTX 30-series cards has multiple versions of each model in its arsenal. Asus is certainly no different and populates the monster GPUs with TUF Gaming (OC) and ROG Strix versions. We took a close look at the RTX 3080 TUF Gaming OC in a previous review, which is handy as the RTX 3090 TUF Gaming OC is on the testbench today.
