With an ultra effective cooler and performance on par with the RTX 4080 Super Founders Edition, the Asus TUF Gaming card makes a mockery of the premium-priced versions of Nvidia's new second-tier Ada GPU. You really don't need to pay above MSRP when there are cards like this around.

The large triple-slot, triple-fan cooling solution achieves excellent temperatures and noise levels

... Asus has done a great job with this TUF Gaming OC edition. The card benefits from a robust design with a metal and aluminium casing. [...] Frequencies are stable and noise levels are low. The card also benefits from a fanless mode, making it inaudible at low loads.

... the TUF is an excellently designed product offering the comfort of silence and being a well built product, it rocks.

This ASUS model brings out the best in this chipset.

Asus TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4080 Super OC (16 GB) is a very interesting variant of the accelerator from the top category. The GeForce RTX 4080 Super is 4%-5% faster in speed than its predecessor, and even the GeForce RTX 4080 had no analogues in the previous generation. Plus, it's worth adding that the GeForce RTX 40 series cards have additional potential in the form of DLSS 3, and AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX is confidently ahead in ray tracing and smart antialiasing technologies.
