SECURE YOUR WATERBLOCK RTX 5080: The Gigabyte RTX 5080 XTREME WATERFORCE WB 16GB GDDR7 GPU is now available at Best Buy for $1,349.99. This waterblock-exclusive graphics card requires a custom liquid cooling system, so make sure your setup is ready before grabbing one. Stock won’t last, so sign in to your Best Buy account, confirm your pickup location, and check out within 10 minutes once added to your cart.


The Gigabyte RTX 5080 XTREME WATERFORCE WB isn’t your standard plug-and-play GPU. It’s built for enthusiasts who want maximum performance with a liquid cooling setup. If your rig isn’t waterblock-ready, this card is not for you. But if you’ve got the cooling hardware in place, you’re in for a serious performance boost. With 16GB of GDDR7 memory, DLSS 4 AI upscaling, and NVIDIA’s Blackwell architecture, this GPU is designed to easily crush 4K gaming and handle demanding creative workloads.

The 2.805GHz base and boost clock speeds make this one of the fastest GPUs in its class. With PCIe Gen 5 support, expect blazing-fast data transfer speeds to keep frame rates smooth. For multi-monitor setups, the three DisplayPort 2.1 and one HDMI 2.1 output let you run up to four displays simultaneously, making this a great choice for ultra-high refresh rate gaming or professional editing rigs. Remember, this card has no built-in fans — it depends entirely on your liquid cooling system to stay frosty.

Stock at Best Buy will move fast, so make sure you’re prepared. Sign in, confirm your location, and add to your cart quickly; you have only 10 minutes to check out before your item is released to other buyers. If you don’t have the cash upfront, Best Buy offers 12-month financing at $112.50 monthly to make the purchase more manageable. Using an American Express credit card? You’ll get 5% cashback (up to $125), making this deal even sweeter.

This Gigabyte RTX 5080 WATERFORCE WB is a beast for liquid-cooled builds, and stock won’t last. If your rig is ready, lock in your order before it’s gone.
