Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4080 Super Gaming OC in review

Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4080 Super Gaming OC 16G Review: Trades blows with the RX 7900 XTX for US$200 less than RTX 4080 non-Super

Super-intense Radeon rivalry. The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4080 Super Gaming OC completely replaces the RTX 4080 non-Super and offers a few perks that possibly merit the US$50 premium over the Founders Edition. The RTX 4080 Super Gaming OC takes the mainstream gaming crown from the RTX 4080 non-Super, but faces an uphill task against the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX that offers equivalent performance for an even lesser ask.
