Nvidia RTX 4080 Founders Edition Review

For our temperature testing, we measure the peak GPU core temperature under load. A reading under load comes from running Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition for 30 minutes.

As we'd expect given Nvidia is re-using the RTX 4090 cooler on the RTX 4080, thermal performance of the Founders Edition is superb. The GPU peaked at 62.5C, with the hot spot running exactly 10C warmer. We also saw a peak of 70C for the GDDR6X memory, so we can have no complaints at all about the thermals here.
