GALAX introduces GeForce RTX 3080Ti/3070Ti Hall of Fame PRO series

GALAX HOF PRO series

GALAX is expanding its Hall of Fame series with cheaper variants known as HOF PRO.

The HOF Pro series will feature two GeForce models: RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3070 Ti. The PRO cards appear to be cheaper variants of the existing HOF series with slightly less capable GPUs and different cooling design.

Both cards feature an identical 3.5-slot cooler design with a white triple-fan cooler. An iconic white PCB has also been retained for the HOF PRO series, but this is not the same board that is being used for the higher spec’ed HOF non-PRO model. GALAX fans will be quick to notice that both cards only feature dual 8-pin power connectors, while the non-PRO variant had three connectors.

GALAX HOF PRO series cards are factory-overclocked, the RTX 3070 Ti HOF Pro features a boost clock of 1860 MHz which is one of the highest clocks from all RTX 3070 Ti models. The RTX 3080 Ti HOF Pro, on the other hand, has a boost clock of 1710 MHz which is one of the most commonly used clocks for custom models and definitely not the fastest. The HOF PRO cards both have a default TDP of 350W, which for RTX 3070 Ti means an increase by 60W and for RTX 3080 Ti it means stock TDP.

So far only single models for each SKU were released, but it is likely that more SKUs will launch at some point in the future. For comparison, the HOF non-PRO RTX 3080 Ti is now available in 5 variants.

GALAX is expected to formally launch the HOF PRO series on August 17th, when these cards are expected to go on sale through Chinese retailer, JD. At this moment it is unclear if GALAX has plans to introduce these cards to the global market.
