The GeForce RTX 5080 Suprim SOC features a vapor chamber cooler just as massive as the one found on the 600W RTX 5090 Suprim SOC. With this extra cooling capacity, the fans on the more efficient RTX 5080 can run at lower speeds, resulting in excellent thermals and minimal noise. However, this high-end cooling solution also drives up the price—you’re paying a premium for one of the best factory-overclocked RTX 5080 cards available.
The next test set comes from the Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition benchmark at Extreme settings and 3840 × 2160 resolution, using the Gaming BIOS. Here, the GPU load shows greater fluctuation. Clocks are higher, power draw varies, and that impacts both temperatures and fan speeds.
The average GPU clock was around 2818 MHz.
The consumption data shows a drop in GPU load towards the end of each test loop.
This is also visible in GPU temperatures, which drop by a few degrees at the end of each loop.
However, it has little effect on fan speeds – they only begin to decrease between test passes. During the test, they rise to around 1640 RPM.
What are the standout features of the MSI GeForce RTX 5080 Suprim SOC?
From my point of view, it’s the cooler with its top-notch efficiency. 🙂
