MSI RTX 5080 INSPIRE 3X OC – 16GB GDDR7 Graphics Card

Unleash Next-Gen Performance with Blackwell Architecture

The MSI GeForce RTX 5080 INSPIRE 3X OC 16G is designed for serious gamers and creators who demand both power and precision. Built on NVIDIA’s latest Blackwell architecture, it brings advances in ray tracing, AI rendering, and display capabilities. Whether you’re pushing frames in fast-paced games, rendering 3D content, or editing high resolution video, this GPU handles everything with ease.

Cooling & Design

MSI’s engineering ensures that performance is matched by thermal efficiency:

• Triple Stormforce Fans with claw-textured blades and circular arcs that maximize airflow while minimizing noise
• Nickel-plated copper baseplate paired with square core pipes to draw heat effectively from both GPU die and memory modules
• Metal backplate for structural integrity, with airflow vents to reduce trapped heat
• Air Antegrade Fin design and V-shaped cutouts to guide airflow through the card effectively
• Zero Frozr technology – fans stop at low temperatures to eliminate noise when idle or under light load

Memory, Clocks & Outputs

This card comes with 16 GB of ultra-fast **GDDR7** VRAM running at 30 Gbps, on a 256-bit memory bus, delivering massive bandwidth for demanding textures, high resolutions, and compute tasks. The “Extreme Performance” mode via MSI Center allows boost clock up to ~2,655 MHz. For connectivity, there are 3 DisplayPort 2.1b outputs + 1 HDMI 2.1b, meaning support for modern high refresh monitors and up to 8K resolutions with DSC and VRR.

Power & Compatibility

The INSPIRE 3X OC draws up to **360 W** of power and requires a reliable power supply of at least ~**850 W**. It fits into a 2.5-slot housing with dimensions around 288 × 112 × 50 mm, weighing ≈ 950 g (card alone). Be sure your case offers enough clearance and airflow.

Why It Stands Out

• Next-level rendering performance via new architecture and improved RT & Tensor cores
• Efficient cooling and silent idle thanks to advanced heatsink design and fan stop
• Future-proof connectivity and support for ultra-high resolutions & refresh rates
• Robust build quality with premium materials and backing by MSI’s software & firmware features
