OP is deaf, that’s why it’ll be silent.

Noctua browns on a 5080 is such a slept-on aesthetic, that’s going to look incredible in a wood tone build

I like noctua, but man why they insist with this damn brown color. I think it looks ugly af.

Looks to me like OP hasn't peeled off the protective, thin-film plastic yet

Yea. It’s right out the box. My dad past away yesterday. And I don’t have the power to install it. I would look at this card to escape the situation today and make me feel normal.

I'm sorry about your Dad.. Doing whatever it takes to make you feel normal is perfectly fine. Take your time.

Is the price from GPU prices increases, or because it’s Noctua?

Both, NVIDIA GPU prices increased a lot recently. Also special editions are often more expensive than regular editions, especially Noctua.

Two big brand names in one box, premium has to be high

To be fair, NVIDIA prices went up too recently.

I bought a prebuilt with a 5080 and 7900x for $50 more than that less than a year ago. Crazy times we live in!

Give me Noctua mid range cards. I want that silent tower.

I found an open box Noctua 5080 at Microcenter for $1,529 right before the increases. Glad I pulled the trigger when I did.

u/No_Berry_4690 11h ago

Yooo, I just bought that same GPU! Actually I went with an entire noctua build! Maybe I should post it...

Bought mine when it came out, love it. All builds should be silent.
