Alongside its even beefier brother, Nvidia has also launched the RTX 5080, its second-in-command GPU. It too released on January 30th 2025 after a couple of weeks of waiting from CES, although for virtually half the price of the 5090, with a $999/£979 MSRP.

If you're looking to purchase the 5080, then we've rounded up all the places we're seeing the card on sale in the UK & USA. Rich's full review is now live, and you can get even more information from Will's initial news on the RTX 50-series. We've also rounded up where to buy the RTX 5090 if you want Nvidia's top-of-the-line instead.

Much like with the 5080, as demand is especially high here, we're expecting stock levels to be low for some time, although we are seeing that this second-in-command card is a little easier to come by.

What is the recommended PSU for RTX 5080?

Nvidia is recommending a 850W minimum PSU for the RTX 5080, although as always, we'd recommend setting your sights a bit higher so you've got some headroom. A reliable, well-regarded unit that's 1000W or more with a good efficiency rating (80+ Gold or higher) and full ATX 3.0/3.1 compliance is what we'd recommend at least.

What variants of the RTX 5080 are available?

As well as the highly limited Founders Edition cards that are always in short supply, here is a list of board partners that Nvidia is working with for the 5080:

  • ASUS
  • Colorful
  • Gainward
  • GALAX
  • GIGABYTE
  • INNO3D
  • KFA2
  • MSI
  • Palit
  • PNY
  • ZOTAC
