Overview

The GeForce GTX 1080 is NVIDIA's flagship single-GPU Pascal card at launch in 2016, succeeding the Maxwell-based GTX 980 and sitting at the top of the consumer lineup until the GTX 1080 Ti arrived in 2017. It was among the first consumer GPUs to use GDDR5X memory.

It features 8GB of GDDR5X on a 256-bit bus, delivering higher memory bandwidth than the GDDR5 used on lower Pascal cards. Built on TSMC's 16nm FinFET process with the full GP104 die, it runs at a TDP of 180W via an 8-pin external connector. Pascal introduced strong efficiency gains and DirectX 12 and Vulkan support, though hardware ray tracing and DLSS would not arrive until the Turing generation.

The GTX 1080 was built for high-refresh 1080p and demanding 1440p gaming, and holds up well in many titles at 4K with reduced settings. It remains a capable card for high-resolution gaming in less demanding modern titles. Buyers who encounter it in the used market will find it relevant for 1440p gaming rigs built around an older platform.
