The NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture, which is at the heart of every GeForce RTX 40 Series graphics card, offers a huge generational leap in performance, efficiency, and capabilities.
Built with TSMC's special 4N process and featuring up to 76 billion transistors (compared to 28 billion in the previous generation), Ada is the most advanced GPU architecture ever created. Ada is extremely efficient, with more than double the performance at the same power consumption compared to the previous generation Ampere architecture and features excellent overclocking capability as power supply increases.

Windforce Cooling System
The WINDFORCE cooling system features three 110mm fans with unique blades, alternate spinning, 9 composite copper heat pipes, a large copper plate that directly touches the GPU, active 3D fans, and screen cooling, which together provide high heat dissipation performance.
Alternative Rotation
Reduces turbulence from adjacent fans and increases air flow pressure.
Active 3D Fan
The active 3D fan provides semi-passive cooling and the fans remain off when the GPU is in a low-load or low-power game.
Unique Fan with Blades
The airflow is dispersed by the triangular edge of the fan and is smoothly guided through the 3D curved stripe on the fan surface.
Graphene Nanolubricant
The graphene nano lubricant can extend the lifespan of the bearing fan by 2.1 times, close to the lifespan of the double bearing, and is quieter.
Large Copper Plate & Heat Pipe
The large copper plate comes into direct contact with the GPU, combined with the composite heat pipes, which quickly transfer the heat of the GPU and VRAM to the heatsink.
Screen Cooling
The extended heatsink allows air to pass through, providing better heat dissipation.
RGB FUSION
The legendary three-ring lighting provides exceptional visual pleasure. You can choose any lighting effect or synchronize it with other devices in the GIGABYTE CONTROL CENTER.
Metal backplate
The metal backplate not only provides an aesthetic shape but also reinforces the structure of the graphics card to provide full protection.
Gigabyte Control Center
The Gigabyte Control Center is a unified software for all supported Gigabyte products. It provides an intuitive interface that allows users to adjust clock speed, voltage, fan mode, and power target in real-time.

Well, I will start with the positives of the card because I am a fan of Gigabyte graphics cards and motherboards since they were released. I upgraded from two Gigabyte GTX 970 graphics cards that I had in SLI configuration. As soon as I installed this specific card, the difference is truly night and day. Without wanting to underestimate my two previous cards, just in a few tests I conducted starting with certain games like DiRT Rally 2.0, Call of Duty, Forza Horizon 5, Resident Evil, and various other games as well as programs like Photoshop 2025, Premiere, After Effects, and others, I want to emphasize here that the motherboard I have is PCI Express 3.0 and not PCI Express 4.0, which this specific card supports, with an Intel i7 5820k processor, a Thermaltake Toughpower 1200W power supply, and 16GB DDR4 2133MHz RAM. In the games, the graphics settings on automatic selection give me a resolution of 4K ultra high 60 fps because I use an LG 4K 60Hz TV without DLSS settings and other features that the graphics card supports. I was impressed that the fans start working when the demands increase, and the operation is incredibly quiet. Now, a little on the negatives is that the Anti-sag Bracket did not fit my motherboard, so I removed it and will use something else. In closing my comment, I want to mention that this is a very powerful and serious graphics card for limitless demands in gaming as well as in image and video processing.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Pretty much a beast. The only downside is too big and to fragile. be careful especially with the mid-low end cases.

Did you find this review helpful?Installed on Aorus Master X670e. Hassle-free installation and operation. The anti-sag kit that comes with it may look fake but does its job and is precisely measured for motherboards like mine (correct height from the motherboard and hole in the right spot for the ez-latch mechanism of the graphics card). Managing the card through the Gigabyte control center is easy, and adding the card to it is also straightforward. The build quality seems quite good. The card I received came with the new 12V-2x6 (H++) connector and not the classic 12VHPWR (H+), although in no case does its consumption approach the nominal even of the old connector. The card connected to a 12VHPWR power supply without any issues since the new 12V-2x6 connector is compatible with the previous standard. After registration with Gigabyte, the warranty was extended to 4 years, which is particularly significant for such an expensive card.
On the downside, nVidia still does not include the ability to automatically update drivers through the driver control panel, and someone has to download the new nVidia app to gain this capability, which is clearly inferior to AMD's corresponding implementation. Also, there are moments when the card's fans are audible without the card doing anything or the computer being stressed, and with temperatures that do not justify such noise. Given the size of the cooler of this particular card, this is frankly unacceptable.
I haven't tested it yet in any game or program that would stress it, so for now, I reserve judgment on its performance, although I believe it will be difficult to stress it at 1440p @144Hz. At some point, I will return to the subject of performance when I have tested it sufficiently. In any case, 5 stars although I would like to give it 4.5.
---------------------------------------------
After a considerable amount of time and many tests, I can provide some details that, however, only pertain to my own system. In other systems, there may be some deviations from my conclusions/results.
The noise issue was fully addressed by switching the card's switch from the overclocking position to the silent position. The result was that the card became practically silent; even under intense stress, the noise is now extremely low, and the value of the exceptionally large cooler finally shows.
The switch seems to only relate to the fan profiles and nothing else, as there was no noticeable difference in performance. Any difference in performance was within statistical error. Only in cases of intense stress was there a very slight difference, and that was because the card reached the temperature that caused throttle down more quickly when the switch was in the silent position.
In my system, the temperature difference between overclocking and silent is ~4.6 degrees in idle state and ~4.2 degrees in load/stress state. The difference in the card's consumption (max Board power draw) is negligible at 316.1W (silent mode) - 317.8W (oc mode), which apparently only relates to the change in fan performance.
All tests were conducted at 1440p with the 566.36 drivers, and in no scenario did the card drop below 55 fps. The card was tested in dx11/dx12/Vulkan with high/ultra settings and without frame generation. The only problem I encountered was crashes in Baldur's Gate 3 with the Vulkan API.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?I am satisfied with my purchase, it may NOT BE top of the line RTX 4080Super but it does the job it is supposed to do.
I do not have lag in games, it has more than devent FPS even in 1440p HDR.
The only drawback is that i can hear the fan when i am not playing.
I bought it for 1189Euros from Sqroutz when the non super variant was 200euros more expensive.Did you find this review helpful?The card is a beast, silent and plays everything in ultra 4k giving you 100+ average fps. Game installation with its bracket, only that for me in a full tower it fit not very comfortably so someone with a midi tower might struggle. Pay attention to the dimensions of the card and the case.
