Customers frequently mention the excellent performance and competitive price of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8GB XC3 ULTRA GAMING graphics card. Many appreciate its effective cooling system and quiet operation, while some find the RGB lighting options limited and the packaging could be improved. The card's compact size is also a plus for many users.
The card performs very well (max settings in all modern games from my testing) and I have never seen it go above 65C in my mATX case. You can also extend the warranty via EVGA. cons: 1. My card had some coil whine in the first week of use which was corrected by running superposition benchmark for about an hour or so. 2. As of the date of this post you cannot do an EVGA step-up to a 3080 10GB card. So please keep that in mind if you have any intention of doing so when buying this card. As a tip for prospective buyers, if you are fortunate enough to get past verification during restocking but are getting a "250 mile error" like I did when attempting to hit the yellow "add to cart" link, change your preferred Best Buy pick-up location to random states until you are able to add it to your cart. You then pay for the card and then change the pick-up destination to your preferred local Best Buy on the final page of checkout. This will ship the card to your local Best Buy and it is yours. Big thanks and shoutout to Fixitfixitfixit discord/Youtube for help obtaining this. Best of luck.

This is an excellent card if you want to do 1440p and below gaming. I am so happy I was able to get one of these at MSRP and it truly performs. This card gives consistent 100+ FPS on AAA games on ultra-wide QHD and for World of Tanks allows me to take advantage of 144hz on my monitor because for that game it gives a consistent 144fps+. Its an added bonus this is an EVGA card which gives you the great warranty they provide. I would definitely recommend this card if you can get it.

This is my first GPU i bought to make my very first PC. Now i know lots of experienced builders will say there are better options out there for a few hindered dollars more but its my first build and i was on a budget and tbh going from a 2060 to the 3070 you do notice a big jump in quality and performance i am not at all regretting this GPU it is amazing and i am more than happy with its performance.
