About the GeForce RTX 3080 12GB

Learn more about this GPU, including its specifications, performance, and mining capabilities.

The RTX 3080 12GB arrives like a midnight city built from silicon and light, where dream and physics overlap and the hum of a fan becomes a heartbeat; beneath that poetic thrum sits Ampere engineering: 8,960 CUDA cores chiseling geometry and hashes alike, a base cadence near 1,260 MHz that can sprint to roughly 1,710 MHz, and 12 gigabytes of GDDR6X memory running at about 19.0 Gbps across a 384‑bit bus to yield a towering 912 GB/s of bandwidth - enough breath to feed 4K worlds, complex simulations, and memory-hungry compute tasks without stalling. The card wears second-generation ray tracing silicon and third-generation Tensor accelerators like trophies, enabling real-time lighting that feels palpable and AI-driven features such as DLSS to trade raw pixels for frame-rate alchemy; for creators and gamers this translates into richer scenes and smoother motion, while for researchers and developers it means raw compute that accelerates CUDA workloads. Mining sits comfortably within the same dream: practical throughput of around 52 MH/s on Ethereum-class algorithms, a notable uplift over earlier 10GB iterations thanks to the larger memory pool and wider bus - roughly a fifth faster in the scenarios measured - though that power comes with appetite, the typical board drawing on the order of three to four hundred watts under load, so planning for robust power delivery, effective cooling, and case airflow is essential. It’s versatile: beyond ETH-style mining it can tackle a spectrum of algorithms where memory bandwidth and core throughput matter, and its real-world output will vary with driver stacks, BIOS variants, miner software optimizations, and environmental factors like temperature and power stability. If you push it for continuous compute, consider balancing clock and voltage for thermal headroom, keep drivers and firmware current, and provide a case and PSU that won’t flinch under long sessions; for gamers, pair it with a high-refresh monitor and enable DLSS or quality-preserving upscalers to stretch frame budgets without surrendering fidelity. In short, the 3080 12GB is a machine of overlapping dimensions: a gaming leviathan, a workstation confidant, and a capable mining workhorse - loud, hungry, and precise - demanding respect in layout, power, and cooling, rewarding those who design systems around its raw, restless potential.

How to Use the GeForce RTX 3080 12GB Mining Profit Calculator

One GPU can mine many different coins. Here is how to read the table above and find which ones are actually worth mining right now.

1

Check the top summary card

The card above already shows your GeForce RTX 3080 12GB single most profitable coin and algorithm right now, along with daily income, electricity cost, and net profit at your current rate.

2

Scan the Mineable Coins table

Every row is one algorithm this GPU can mine: its hashrate, power draw, the coin's price, block reward, and network difficulty, plus the income, electricity expense, and daily profit for that specific coin.

3

Look for profit above $0

Out of every coin this GPU can technically mine, usually only a handful are actually profitable at your electricity rate at any given moment. Sort by Daily Profit to see those first.

4

Switch coins as prices move

Because this data updates continuously, the most profitable coin can change day to day. Check back or bookmark this page to keep mining whichever coin currently pays best on this hardware.

A single GeForce RTX 3080 12GB is general-purpose hardware, so unlike an ASIC miner built for one algorithm, it can technically mine dozens of different coins across multiple algorithms. That does not mean all of them are worth mining: at any given electricity rate, most of those coins will show a negative or near-zero daily profit once power costs are subtracted, while only a small number stay clearly profitable. This GeForce RTX 3080 12GB mining profitability calculator recalculates every row in the table above using live coin prices, current network difficulty, and block rewards, so the handful of coins showing genuine daily profit above $0 are the ones actually worth pointing your hashrate at right now, not a static list from months ago.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about mining with GeForce RTX 3080 12GB.

Currently, Xelis is the most profitable coin for GeForce RTX 3080 12GB, generating $0.43/day at 49.00 KH/s on the Xelishashv2 algorithm. This profit is after electricity costs of $0.44/day at $0.080/kWh.

GeForce RTX 3080 12GB can technically mine dozens of coins across 12 algorithms, but at your current electricity rate of $0.080/kWh, only 2 of the coins shown on this page currently have a daily profit above $0. Sort the Mineable Coins table by Daily Profit to see them ranked from best to worst.

Daily profit = Daily revenue from mined coins - Daily electricity cost. For GeForce RTX 3080 12GB, power consumption is 230W, costing $0.44/day at $0.080/kWh. Revenue is based on live network hashrate, block reward, and current coin price for each supported algorithm.

Every 1c/kWh increase reduces daily profit by $0.06. At $0.05/kWh, profit would be $0.60. Your current rate of $0.080/kWh yields a net profit margin of 49.5%.

This GPU supports 12 different mining algorithms including Xelishashv2, EvrProgPow, ProgPow. You can switch between coins instantly based on live profitability data from MinerCompare.

230W / 49.00 KH/s = 4.69 W/KH/s. Lower is better. Top ASICs achieve 15-20 J/TH.

Yes! Undervolting and memory overclocking can improve efficiency by 10-30%. Use HiveOS, SimpleMining OS, or MSI Afterburner. Keep VRAM temperature below 60C for longevity. This can save up to $0.09/day.

GPUs like GeForce RTX 3080 12GB retain 60-80% of their original price on eBay after 1 year of mining. High demand for gaming and AI keeps resale value strong, especially for NVIDIA RTX 30/40 and AMD RX 6000/7000 series.

Use the GPU Generations panel to compare GeForce RTX 3080 12GB with 8 generations of graphics cards. Filter by AMD/NVIDIA, VRAM, or algorithm to find the best performer for your budget and electricity rate.

Yes. GeForce RTX 3080 12GB can sell its hashrate on NiceHash, a hashpower marketplace rather than a traditional mining pool. Compare the NiceHash row in the Mineable Coins table against direct-mining coins: whichever shows the higher Daily Profit at your electricity rate is currently the better option for this card.
