This GPU is very good in terms of performance (high refresh rate and high resolution at 1440p on max settings). The package came out nicely and the presentation of the package is very good. In addition, DLSS and RTX features are greatly improved from the RTX 2000 series (I upgraded from a pre-built RTX 2070 Super to this GPU for maxed out settings at 165FPS in 1440p). The GPU's design is breathtaking and managed to fit in the pre-built Asus Strix ROG desktop that I own and does everything better than what the 2070 Super that I had in terms of performance to cooling. For performance, I ran Ready or Not at maxed settings with DLSS and Nvidia Reflex+boost and ran 224 FPS which is amazing and hopefully I would try run other games like Squad, Team Fortress 2, Fortnite, and Elden Ring. The only thing that holds it back is how this model should have been at launch with adding more VRAM than it's predecessor the RTX 2080/2080 Super, so that people have a reason to upgrade and have a better value than what Nvidia is doing and of course adding a little bit of more VRAM for the next generation of GPUs would help the value, which convinces people to upgrade. Of course the pricing is still not good, however Asus is doing price drops for this model and their rest of their lineup of GPUs and the shortage is beginning to end, so hopefully people will have a higher chance to purchase GPUs. Overall still amazing GPU and once more are available and the price starts to decrease more, get it. Even if the next generation of GPUs are coming out, if you have concerns will power requirements and still have a capable power-supply, this GPU is still an amazing option.

The most beautiful card I've been able to hold in my hands besides the white version (3090) Had to copp one for myself! Beast performance! It plays anything I throw at it at 1440p, crystal clear display! I'm going to be set for a while :)

I’ll still give this 5 stars, despite the coil whine. I did end up undervolting this card down to .903v at 1875mhz which peaks at 1905mhz boost. Works fine, maintains in the upper 60’s and low 70’s, less depending on room ambient temp. At this point, wait for the 4080/12gb benchmarks and see if the $799 vs $899 is worth it.
