GALAX GeForce RTX 4080 SG Review – The Quad Cooler Returns!

The GALAX GeForce RTX 4080 SG graphics card comes inside a standard cardboard box. The front of the package has a large “GeForce RTX” brand logo along with the “GALAX” logo in the top left corner and a large hooded figure in the middle which is part of the new ‘Serious Gaming’ brand.

The packaging has put a large emphasis on the RTX side of things as the first feature enlisted by AIBs will be NVIDIA Ada architecture, Ray Tracing & DLSS support. NVIDIA has bet the future of their gaming GPUs on Ray Tracing support as these are the first cards to offer support for the new feature.

The back of the box is very typical, highlighting the main features and specifications of the cards.

There’s also a focus towards GeForce.com on each AIB card through which users can download the latest drivers and GeForce Experience application which are a must for gamers to access all feature sets of the new cards.

The sides of the box once again greet us with the large GeForce RTX branding. There’s also the mention of 16 GB GDDR6X (RTX 4080) memory available on the card. Opening the box, you are greeted with a nice SUPRIM logo.

Outside of the box, the graphics card and the accessory package are held firmly by foam packaging. The graphics card comes with a few accessories and manuals which might not be of much use for hardcore enthusiasts but can be useful for the mainstream gaming audience.

The card comes with an extra 1-clip booster fan, a pair of ARGB/RGB cable headers, a 16-pin to 3 x 8-pin cable connector, and an RGB-Lit anti-sag stand. After the package is taken care of, I can finally start talking about the card itself. This thing is a beast and I can’t wait to test it out to find what kind of performance improvement I get over current-gen cards.
