Palit GeForce RTX 4080 JetStream (NED4080019T2-1032J)

Palit GeForce RTX 4080 JetStream is a top-level gaming video card with 16 GB of GDDR6X video memory from the progressive line of NVIDIA RTX 4000 video accelerators (Ada Lovelace, 5 nm, 2022), where in power it is second only to the top-end RTX 4090 with 24 GB of video memory. Belongs to the 2023 Palit JetStream family of products, which are aimed at demanding gamers, e-sportsmen and enthusiasts who know how to get the most out of their hardware through proper overclocking and optimization of components.

It is not limited only to games, but also successfully copes with the tasks of machine learning, media content processing, 3D rendering and 4K/8K video compression for streaming. It features an efficient cooling system designed specifically for Ada Lovelace chips. It includes three powerful Gale Hunter coolers, multiple heatpipes and a wide copper base. In addition, the Palit JetStream RTX 4080 has the ability to switch to a quiet semi-passive operating mode under moderate load, which makes working with the video card more comfortable and silent.

The RTX 4080 is equipped with a powerful AD103 GPU, which includes 9728 stream processors, factory overclocking to 2505 MHz and supports a 256-bit data bus. The GDDR6X memory capacity is 16 GB, which according to the manufacturer should be enough for games at high resolution. According to tests, it can easily handle any modern games in 2K resolution and maximum graphics settings.

For Full HD resolution, a graphics card may be overkill, but for 4K gaming at maximum graphics settings, you may need to lower settings, disable ray tracing, and actively use DLSS. The third generation of DLSS technology brings significant improvements, including the NVIDIA Reflex optimizer, Optical Flow Accelerator engine, and support for four types of visual data. These enhancements greatly improve the performance of DLSS, delivering sharper images, higher FPS, and smoother gameplay. Palit GeForce RTX 4080 JetStream also supports PCI-E Gen4 x16 interface and is compatible with previous versions of PCI-E. However, given the peak power consumption of the video card in the range of 350-400 W, the manufacturer recommends choosing an 850 W power supply to ensure reliable and stable operation. This is especially important when overclocking and loading games.
