Zotac Gaming RTX 5080 AMP Extreme Graphics Card Review

When buying a new graphics card, you have certain choices of which brand and model to pick up for that particular GPU. I know that’s not exactly the easiest decision to make right now, with stock and pricing being a slight issue, but cards have been available, are still available, and will get better in the near future. So, it’s always good to arm yourself with the relevant information on various models so that when the time comes, you can make the right choice. This leads me to today’s review of the Zotac RTX 5080 AMP Extreme INFINITY.
Zotac claims this card is a completely revamped experience and a new approach to graphics card design, but what does that mean for you, the end user? Well, that’s what we’re going to find out! This card boasts impressive features, including being powered by the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture and DLSS 4. The innovative Infinity Mirror Design adds a unique aesthetic touch. Cooling is prioritised with IceStorm 3.0 Advanced Cooling, a Larger Vapor Chamber, and BladeLink Fans, alongside features like FREEZE Fan Stop, Active Fan Control, and Dual BIOS for optimal performance and noise management. Customisation is key with SPECTRA 2.0 RGB Lighting and a SPECTRA LINK Lighting Sync port. Durability is ensured with a Metal die-cast backplate and added support comes from a bundled GPU Support Bracket. Safety is also considered with the 12V-2×6 Safety Light. Finally, the all-new FireStorm Utility allows for fine-grained control and monitoring of your new GPU.
