Gigabyte AORUS NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 XTREME WATERFORCE WB 16G Graphics Card, 16GB GDDR7, 10752 CUDA Cores, 30 Gbps 256 bit, 2805 MHz Core Clock, Patented Leak Detection | GV-N5080AORUSX WB-16GD

GeForce RTX 50 Series - Game Changer! The Most Advanced AI platform for Gamers, Creators and beyond. Multiply performance with NVIDIA DLSS 4.5, generate images at unprecedented speed, and unleash your creativity with NVIDIA Studio.

 

Push the boundaries of liquid-cooled performance with the AORUS GeForce RTX 5080 XTREME WATERFORCE WB. Designed for the most demanding PC architects, this card eliminates the risk and hassle of manual water block installation. By utilizing the NVIDIA Blackwell 2.0 platform and 16GB of ultra-fast GDDR7 memory, it provides a specialized solution for those who demand the lowest possible temperatures and the highest possible stable overclocks.

 

Key Features * Optimized Water Block: A massive copper base plate covers the GPU, VRAM, and MOSFETs, ensuring total thermal control over every critical component.

Patented Leak Detection: Integrated sensors surround the water block fittings and instantly alert the user (and can shut down the system) if even a drop of liquid is detected.

• Blackwell AI Power: Features 5th-Gen Tensor Cores and 4th-Gen Ray Tracing Cores, enabling hyper-realistic visuals and DLSS 4.0 frame generation.

• 16GB GDDR7 VRAM: Equipped with the world's fastest consumer memory, clocked at 30 Gbps for flawless 4K and 8K workflows.

   

Performance / Technology Powered by 10,752 CUDA cores, this XTREME edition is factory-tuned to sustain higher boost clocks than air-cooled counterparts. The liquid-cooling advantage allows the Blackwell architecture to stay in its peak boost state longer without thermal throttling. With PCIe 5.0 support and a massive memory bandwidth, it is a powerhouse for both AAA gaming and heavy AI computation (LLM training and local neural rendering).

 

Design & Ergonomics The card features a breathtaking transparent acrylic cover that showcases the micro-fin liquid channels and the vibrant RGB Fusion lighting system. The slim, dual-slot design is perfect for multi-GPU setups or sleek vertical mounting. A protective metal backplate provides structural integrity, while the premium G1/4" threads ensure universal compatibility with standard custom loop fittings.

 

Compatibility / Use Cases This card is intended strictly for systems with a pre-existing or planned custom liquid-cooling loop. Its 16GB VRAM and extreme stability make it ideal for professional 3D artists, 4K high-refresh-rate gamers, and AI researchers. It requires a robust 850W+ power supply and a 16-pin power connector to feed its high-performance VRM.

 

Why This Product Stands Out The AORUS XTREME WATERFORCE WB isn't just a GPU; it’s a piece of engineering art. While competitors' water blocks are often aftermarket add-ons, this is a factory-sealed solution backed by a 4-year warranty (upon registration). The combination of the "Extreme" binned GPU and the superior heat dissipation of water makes this the most stable RTX 5080 on the market.
