BUILT TUF
The TUF GAMING GeForce RTX⢠3080 Ti has been stripped down and built
back up to provide more robust power and cooling. A new all-metal shroud
houses three powerful axial-tech fans that utilize durable dual ball fan
bearings. Fan rotation has been optimized for reduced turbulence, and a
stop mode brings all three fans to a halt at low temps. Beneath,
independent heatsinks for the GPU and memory keep thermals under tight
control. Additional features, including TUF components, Auto-Extreme
Technology, a new GPU bracket, and a backplate vent make the TUF a proper
powerhouse. For builders looking for a new â€old faithfulâ€, this card
has your back.
AXIAL-TECH UPGRADES
TUF Gaming cards leverage our tried-and-true Axial-tech fan design,
with three fans working in tandem to satisfy the thermal demands of
NVIDIAâ€s new high-octane design. The fans rely on dual ball fan bearings
to ensure consistent performance and increased longevity compared to
sleeve bearings and other bearing types.
HEATSINK
MAXCONTACT
To get heat into the heatsink array efficiently, so that it can be
whisked away by the powerful Axial-tech fans, we use a manufacturing
process that improves the surface smoothness of the heatspreader at the
microscopic level. The extra flatness allows for better contact with the
die, helping to enhance thermal transfer.
HEATSINK
2.7-SLOT DESIGN
The heat spreader draws heat up into heatpipes that carry it through
a fin stack that fills most of the cardâ€s large, 2.7-slot footprint.
This generation of TUF Gaming graphics cards also feature a dedicated
heatsink for VRAM to keep temperatures well under maximum operating specs.
PCB
TUF COMPONENTS
Components are selected for TUF Gaming graphics cards based on their
durability and performance. In addition to top-shelf chokes and MOSFETs,
capacitors that meet military-grade certification make the TUF stand tall
amongst the competition. The components are soldered to the PCB using our
advanced Auto-Extreme automated manufacturing process. Smooth joints on
the rear of the PCB and the elimination of human errors ensure each
graphics card meets our rigorous specifications. Finally, to ensure
flawless performance when it counts, the cards are subjected to a grueling
144-hour validation trial.

DESIGN
FRESH SHROUD
An all-aluminum shroud adds robust protection to TUF Gaming graphics
cards and a no-nonsense industrial design and grayscale colorway fits into
any build with ease.
ITâ€S COOLER OUT BACK
The underside of the card reveals a host of improvements. Most of the
rear is swathed in a protective metal backplate that prominently features
a wide vent. The vent allows hot air to escape towards chassis exhaust
fans instead of being recycled back into the cooler. Beneath the GPU, a
bracket provides consistent mounting pressure between the die and heat
spreader. Stainless steel is used for the I/O bracket to protect ports and
provide a more secure mount. A conveniently placed Dual Bios switch allows
customization of the cardâ€s default performance profile without software.
DESIGN
FUNCTIONAL FRONT
The top-side RGB element can be customized to display a range of
aesthetic and functional effects and also synced with other ASUS
components to enable uniform lighting. To fulfill the power demands of the
GeForce RTX 3080 Ti, two 8-pin connectors are present, along with onboard
LEDs that light up if PSU PCIe power connectors are not plugged in
correctly.
SOFTWARE
GPU TWEAK II
The ASUS GPU Tweak II utility takes graphics card tuning to the next
level. It allows you to tweak critical parameters including GPU core
clocks, memory frequency, and voltage settings, with the option to monitor
everything in real-time through a customizable on-screen display. Advanced
fan control is also included along with many more features to help you get
the most out of your graphics card.
