ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 and RTX 4070 Ti graphics cards give creators compact and quiet options for their workstations

Graphics cards are most famously used for gaming, but gamers are far from the only folks who eagerly anticipate each new generation of GPUs. The highly specialized hardware in graphics cards offers potent parallel processing power, and professionals put it to work in fields like artificial intelligence, finance, game development, manufacturing, and robotics. While creators in these fields often use the same hardware as gamers, the needs of these two groups of users aren’t identical. To give these professionals options better suited for their lines of work, we’re excited to announce the very first ProArt graphics cards: the ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 and ProArt GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. Tuned for quiet operation, styled for professional contexts, and slimmed down for wide chassis compatibility, these graphics cards are built from the ground up to serve the needs of creators.

Space-saving designs

A creative professional’s workspace often involves more equipment than a gamer’s. On a desk that needs to accommodate multiple displays, control surfaces, and external drives, an extra-large chassis might be a luxury that you can’t afford. That’s why we designed the ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 and 4070 Ti to keep a compact profile. At only 300mm long, they’re currently two of the smallest 40 Series graphics cards on the market. They’ll fit easily into a wide variety of PC cases, and they’re even short enough to fit into many of the most popular mini-ITX chassis.

The thickness of the cooling solution matters, too. While gamers often only use one of their PCIe x16 slots, creators are much more likely to put their additional slots to use. The ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 and 4070 Ti offer a 2.5-slot design that’s less likely to interfere with other components that creators need to install.

Subdued noise and tamed temperatures

Within their compact dimensions, the ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 and 4070 graphics cards offer a compelling blend of thermal and acoustic performance. Their beefier counterparts from our ROG Strix and TUF Gaming lineups have much larger heatsinks that might appeal in circumstances where space isn’t an issue, but the slim-and-trim ProArt models compensate with an optimized fan profile that allows them to offer the best balance of temperatures and noise levels.

Under load, the ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 is quiet, and with its 0dB tech, the fans will spin down completely for silent operation in light workloads. This card achieves these excellent results through its robust cooling solution. A trio of Axial-tech fans deliver high airflow at low noise levels. Large venting along the sides of the shroud facilitates heat dissipation, and a generous vent on the sturdy backplate allows heat to exhaust naturally into the primary airflow pathway of your PC’s chassis.

Minimize distractions

Gamers love the visual customization options that they get from RGB LEDs, but some creators find that they need to zealously protect their flow state by minimizing any distractions in and around their workstations. The ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 and RTX 4070 Ti will help you keep your focus with a minimalist design rooted in clean lines, sophisticated colors, and contoured surfaces — without the LEDs. These graphics cards will communicate professionalism in client-facing installations, and they coordinate seamlessly with our ProArt ecosystem of motherboards, displays, and peripherals.

Built to go the distance

Inside and out, we prepped the ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 and 4070 Ti to go the distance. Dual ball fan bearings offer excellent longevity. Both cards are assembled with our Auto-Extreme Technology, which is an automated manufacturing process that sets new standards in the industry by allowing all soldering to be completed in a single pass. This reduces thermal strain on components and avoids the use of harsh cleaning chemicals, resulting in less environmental impact, lower manufacturing power consumption, and a more reliable product overall.

We armored this graphics card with a stainless steel bracket. To keep your graphics card on the straight and level over the long term, it’s kept level by a protective backplate, and we include a ProArt graphics card holder in the box.

Finally, we know that creators rely on exceptional driver support for their work. With the ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 and $070 Ti, you’ll get NVIDIA Studio Driver support to ensure maximum performance, rock-solid reliability, and broad software compatibility.

Easy control with GPU Tweak III

The ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 and RTX 4070 Ti offer an excellent balance of acoustic, thermal, and graphics performance right out of the box. But we know that many enthusiasts will be eager to fine-tune their graphics cards to best suit their personal preferences. That’s why we offer the easy-to-use GPU Tweak III app. Built on years of feedback from the PC community, this tool makes it easy to overclock your graphics card, customize your fan curves, and monitor vital hardware information.

Creators in particular can take advantage of the Profile Connect feature in GPU Tweak III to streamline their workflows. This feature allows you to specify settings for an individual app and have those settings load automatically when the targeted app launches. For example, this versatile tool will let you establish a baseline group of settings tuned for quiet operation, and then unleash the full power of your graphics card when you load up your most demanding creative app.

Three free months of Adobe Creative Cloud

Adobe products are central to creative work in many industries. We’ve partnered with Adobe to empower your workflow with the renowned Creative Cloud suite of apps and services. With your purchase of a ProArt GeForce RTX 4080 or 4070 Ti in select regions, you’ll enjoy a free three-month subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud. Not only will you have access to over 20 apps, including Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and After Effects, you’ll have 100GB of cloud storage on tap. Redemption is easy, and you can apply the Creative Cloud subscription to a new or existing account. Check out the full details for this program here.

Compact, creative, powerful
