GeForce RTX 3080 10GB GDDR6X PCI Express 4.0 Strix Graphics Card - Black
A: I think maybe you might be able to push 0.90fps, I recommend the RTX 3090 for a faster slideshow.
Q: Why is the ROG Strix so much more expensive than the FE and the other AIB cards?
A: ASUS has had a long history of producing more reliable aftermarket GPUs than competitors. Their 2080 Ti for instance had more consistent thermals and stable overclocking when compared to its competition. That's why the ASUS Strix 2080 Ti is considered the best on the market currently. You are paying a higher price for that level of quality and consistency.
Q: Can this run space cadet pinball?
A: That completely depends on the rest of your PC. If you are wanting to play on MAX setting with more than 5FPS, you might need to upgrade your CPU to thread-ripper. That being said, make sure you are custom water-cooling it with sea water and all applications are closed when playing. I have heard rumors that this game is more demanding than Crysis. So do not expect good performance, highly recommend 2x3090's in SLI for 10FPS.
A: I've seen tear down videos that people have supposedly done on on this card, just google Asus 3080 tear down, its a 5 minute video. In that video I saw the more expensive ones installed on all 6. Fingures crossed this picture here is just a computer generated refernce supplied to Best Buy.
A: Because that would be too smart
Q: Is this the overclocked version? I saw on Newegg that the overclocked version was around $840-$860.
A: Yes it is, if you look at this model on the best buy app, it shows the model to be RTX3080-O10G which is the OC version.
A: I have almost given up but they do small waves of restocks, the scalpers and bots will always beat the normal people like us who want one. Just have to keep trying or wait for the hype to die down. Good luck
A: Bottlenecking is dependent on the game that you are playing, the resolution, graphic settings, and what framerate you are trying to hit. Check out the Gamers Nexus review on Youtube of the 3080 FE card.
