Description

MSI RTX 5080 INSPIRE 3X OC Overview
Based on the Blackwell architecture, MSI GeForce RTX 5080 INSPIRE 3X OC Graphics Card takes your professional content creation to new levels with the power of real-time ray tracing and AI. This GPU features 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM and a 256-bit memory interface, delivering improved performance compared to the previous Ada Lovelace-based generation.

With DisplayPort 2.1b and HDMI 2.1b outputs, you can connect up to UHD 8K 7680 x 4320 resolution displays. Not only does the RTX 5080 deliver high-resolution gaming, its 10,752 CUDA cores may be used to accelerate computationally intensive tasks with compatible applications and APIs. The clock speeds can reach up to 2655 MHz when overclocked.
A dual BIOS allows you to choose between a full performance gaming mode or a low noise silent setting. DrMOS power stages, high-efficiency chokes, and additional fuses deliver reliable electrical performance while the thickened copper layer and thermal padding quickly dissipate heat.

Efficient Cooling

The three STORMFORCE fans feature several blades with a claw texture design that enhances air pressure while a circular arc concentrates airflow with minimal noise. Dual ball bearing help to ensure a long lifespan. The fans are complemented by a nickel-plated copper baseplate that works with the square shaped core pipes to quickly transfer heat away from the GPU and VRAM. Fins with a V-shaped cutout are located at the airflow passthrough to optimize efficiency.

Premium Design
The INSPIRE 3X OC has a compact design that can fit mini-ITX, mATX, and ATX form factors, allowing you to save space without sacrificing performance.
A sturdy metal backplate adds stability while maintaining optimal airflow with its vents. An adjustable support stand is included, which may be attached to your case help hold up the card.

Powerful AI Performance

The GeForce RTX 50- Series GPUs can create generative AI models at twice the speed of the previous generation with a smaller memory footprint, enabling powerful video editing, 3D rendering, and design tools.
You can render large 3D scenes in real-time and create complex animations with ray tracing using compatible GPU-accelerated applications such as Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya, Maxon Cinema 4D, and Blender. Visualize photorealistic materials as you create them and experience near lag-free interaction in addition to using tools such as AI-enhanced denoising and frame-boosting with DLSS 3.

Video Editing and Motion Graphics

GeForce RTX 50-Series GPUs deliver a generational leap in NVIDIA encoders and decoders with support for the 4:2:2 pro-grade color format, multiview-HEVC (MV-HEVC) for 3D and virtual reality (VR) video, and the new AV1 Ultra High Quality mode. Accelerate AI effects with Tensor Cores on RTX 50-Series GPUs. Play back and edit ultra-high resolution video smoothly without pre-caching or generating proxies in Adobe Premiere Pro, Blackmagic Resolve, REDCINE-X PRO, and more. Use Auto color, Shot match, and RTX GPU-accelerated color grading to get to the ideal color in Blackmagic Resolve.
Photography and Graphic Design

Rapidly enhance and style your images with 30+ GPU-accelerated features and effects such as Select and Mask, Camera RAW, Blur Gallery, and Smart Sharpen in Adobe Photoshop. Automatically give your RAW images crisper detail, better color rendering, and fewer artifacts using the RTX-accelerated AI “Enhance Details” feature in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Classic. Quickly interact and zoom in and out of complex vector graphics smoothly, thanks to GPU-acceleration in Adobe Illustrator. Instantly visualize your 2D art in photorealistic 3D with RTX GPU-accelerated rendering in Adobe Stager.
