EVGA - GeForce RTX 2080 XC Ultra Gaming 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card

Was lucky enough to start looking for an nvidia gpu (got a g-sync display) after the Supers came out, so managed to get this at $650. Before I was using a GTX 970 at 1440p so it was struggling, now with this 2080 I can get 140 FPS in multiplayer COD MW which was also included with this card. EVGA knows how to put together a video card, was my first EVGA product and pleasantly surprised! All in all an amazing purchase.

I was able to reach max settings on all video games with 75-100+ FPS. World of Warcraft has Vertical Sync off. On FPS games like Call of Duty Modern Warfare its exceptionally fast without bottlenecking. Nice upgrade from SLI 770 GTX 4GB by Gigabyte. Remember to use Nvidia GeForce Experience to maximize this graphic card full potential or more by customizing your game settings afterward to fit your need.

I was a bit skeptical on buying it because it was expensive but I bought it because I was ready to take a leap and try a top of the line card and man is it nice. I have it paired with an i7 9700k cpu and they really do make gaming so much better. Glad I purchased but sad it dropped in price less than a week after purchasing.

If your looking for a great graphics card with all the bells & whistles, then look no further. This card has it all in spades!

My First GPU for my first ever pc build. I'm happy with the performance at 1440 , I'm coming from a Lenovo laptop with a 970.

So I have been trying to hold off on writing a review for some time so I could play with the card and see what it could handle/ do and how everything looks on some graphic intense games. So far I am not disappointed. So here is a breakdown to why I recommend it. 1) Performance: Because I also like to stream I try my best to keep up with the new games coming out and having a steady stream is important to me. So far running games such as PUBG and APEX (popular FPS currently) I haven't notice a drop below 60 fps during game play. A match from start to finish has been a smooth ride. on the other side of the spectrum I heavily mod Skyrim and the Witcher 3. Very high graphic games (post Modding with Skyrim) and I have yet to run into any clipping or other issues with rendering objects issues you would see in this game with my much older card. I currently have 4 monitors connected to the card. while one plays the game, another manages the stream, one has the stream open for me to notice any performance issues, and the fourth lets me manage any other media platform i'm also using. to date I have not notice an issue with all this running at once, and the fans on the card are very quite IMO. 2) Upgrade: I have been rocking a GTX 980 for about 4-5 years and I am able to tell the deference easily with the new upgrade. As I just noted, everything is running smoother than before even with some heavily modded games. HOWEVER because I was back in the GTX 900 series I fell that anyone else at this level or lower should make the Jump to the RTX 2080. Simply because I don't try to keep up with the newest and coolest thing that just came out. when I make the purchase for a component such as this i try to keep it for as long as i possibly can. if you are currently in the GTX 1000 series spending the money honestly right now doesn't seem to be justified just yet. I say this because this time around we are not seeing crazy outstanding performance increase from the 1080's to the 2080's. Unless you have the cash burning a hole in your pocket, you may want to wait till something new is released or Ray Tracing becomes more of a thing (i'm betting on it but i could be wrong). 3) Investing: This plays a little bit off the last part, Ray Tracing. I honestly believe this is going to be brought into play sooner than others may expect (although I could be wrong). until recently Nvidia only had what they developed and to showcased last year what the possibility of what Ray tracing could do. however just recently using Unreal engine a stunning short video with ray tracing inside of it came out. diving deeper into it i found they added the support for Dx12 ray tracing, and will be releasing this for development soon. With them moving forward with it i felt it was the right investment for me to get a 2080 rather than a cheaper 1080. In conclusion, This is a great card. the price may be high but I plan to keep my card for the next 4-5 years at the least. if you are currently rocking a GTX 1000 series, honestly hold off till the end of the year or maybe the first quarter of 2020, because your card should be fine until something better with ray tracing actually comes out. (just because its released soon doesn't mean it we'll have a new game overnight) and hopefully further in the year the price will drop for the 2080's.

Max settings on all games and applications, Played a couple of games without any issues. Bit pricey but you get what you paid for. its the best.

Even if Raytracing isn’t perfect it’s still a good step forward in tech that will improve games in the future. I haven’t tried this feature out yet but this card is a BEAST at everything else. I haven’t OC’ed it or anything and every game I play is over 150 FPS except gtav. It’s cool, quiet, looks good (I still would rather have the white gigabyte card) and the leds do cool stuff too. No problems after a month. It is expensive but all new release stuff is. A 1080ti was 1200 a few months ago lol.
