Short Description & Highlighted Points

• The MSI RTX 5080 16G INSPIRE 3X OC is a sleek, high-performance Blackwell-architecture GPU designed for gamers and creators who want power without flashy aesthetics.

• It packs 10,752 CUDA cores and 16 GB of ultra-fast GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering a very high memory bandwidth (~960 GB/s) — great for 4K gaming and large texture workloads.

• The card is factory-overclocked, reaching up to 2,640 MHz in boost mode, and can go slightly higher (around 2,655 MHz) when using MSI Center’s Extreme Performance mode.

• A triple-fan “Inspire 3X” cooler (Stormforce design) with claw-textured blades ensures good airflow while minimizing noise, aided by a nickel-plated copper baseplate and heat pipes.

• It’s relatively power-hungry (360 W) and requires a modern 16-pin (12VHPWR) connector, with MSI recommending at least an 850 W PSU.

• For display outputs, it supports 3 × DisplayPort 2.1b and 1 × HDMI 2.1b, which can drive ultra-high refresh-rate or high-resolution monitors (even 8K with DSC).

• The card supports up to 4 displays, DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, G-SYNC, and HDCP, making it a versatile choice for gaming, streaming, or creative workflows.

• Its compact-ish size (288 mm length, 50 mm thick) makes it more friendly to smaller (but still reasonably sized) cases relative to some larger flagship GPUs.
