At that moment my smart watch said I was going in to afib!! The process to get through checkout was a bigger adrenaline rush than running away from an oozing Volcano. WOW! Oh yea, the card.. It's amazing.

Finally got it
|Posted .Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Ok so after passing through the battlefield of bots, lost sleep, shed tears and possibly even blood from my blisters by furiously clicking F5 and clicking add to cart, I have reached super saiyan mode. All joking aside, this card is huge! Design wise it’s absolutely gorgeous. Did I need a 3090 not at all. But it sure does shred any games such as Horizon Zero Dawn (75FPS 4K Ultra), SnowRunner (90FPS 4K Ultra), Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 (54FPS 4K Ultra), Call of Duty Cold War (132FPS 4K Ultra) Gameplay isn’t the only benchmark because some people may use this for 3D modeling softwares, Octane Blender, raytracing and other programs that can fully utilize the increase in cuda and ray tracing cores. I’ll provide more updates along the way as I use it for various different applications such as Davinci Resolve, Cinema 4D, and Adobe Premiere Pro.

Managed to get one and I love it.
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5My brother and I built our computers in August before the stock shortages happened so we were lucky. He got a 2080 Super and I got a 2060 Super. The 30 Series GPU's release dates were announced and I wanted to get an FE. Come release date, I didn't get a 3080 like everyone else. So I downgraded my 2060 to a 1660 Super in hopes of eventually getting a 30 Series and then I'd give the 1660 Super to my mom's build I was working on. Cut 6 frustrating months later and CONSTANT checking each day, I finally got a 3080 FE on Best Buy with NO issues during checkout. Yeah, I know, I was surprised to. So far I have no issues with the 3080 and I think it's amazing. I love the design of the FE compared to the other AiBs. I'm running 1440p with a Ryzen 9 3900X along with this and VR is amazing. The 1660 Super I was using previously would give some lag here and there but now it's so smooth with the 3080. It sucks that this year has been the worst in terms of out of stock supply/scalpers/miners/etc. but I'd still hold off and keep trying to get one at msrp or close to it (unless you're rich and don't care about price but that's not me).

Great card for the value IF you can snag one
|Posted .Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5If you are somehow one of the fortunate few to grab this card, then wow, this is it in terms of price to performance. Coming from a 5600xt, the 3080 handles most max graphic settings that you throw at it. As someone who plays on a high refresh rate 1440p monitor, the card is near perfect for that setup. At that resolution, you can enjoy the high fps and great looking graphics. The ability to also handle 4K is a nice option if I ever decide to upgrade monitors. As far as aesthetics go, I absolutely love the look of the founders cards MINUS the ridiculous looking 12 to dual 8 pin cable. Luckily there are after market cable extensions that help solve this issue. I was also pleasantly surprised to find that the card actually has some rgb at the middle of the card in addition to the led lit geforce logo. When it comes to temps, I actually found, through various websites, that undervolting the card allows you to achieve near the same performance while pulling way fewer watts. All in all, while the gpu market is completely abysmal at this point, if you can snag this card at the original msrp of $700, then you have a winner.

The one to get if you can.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I feel truly lucky to have been able to snag one of these cards. For $700, it is truly a remarkable value. There is a bit of coil whine under load on my unit, but not too terrible. I can't hear it with the headphones I use anyways. Also, the 12 pin adapter is ugly, no way around it. With it was longer so it could have been hidden behind the motherboard. All that said, I'm getting fantastic performance with the card. It was a huge upgrade from my 980ti. 100+fps at 1440hz with settings maxed is no issue for almost all AAA games. 60+fps for 4k. The 3080 and Cyberpunk & Control have also sold me on Ray Tracing. When implemented well with DLSS, it really is a game changer. It stinks that 6 months later we're still not able to easily acquire these cards. Best Buy's shipping was not great. Gard was in a box with two flat air packets and had obviously been bouncing around. Luckily the Nvidia box was a lot better, and kept the card safe. Overall, I'm lucky to have one at all given everything, and given the chance, I'd happily purchase again.

Great at gaming, mining, looking cool!
|Posted .Owned for 6 months when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5It's a beast, everyone knows that. Runs everything i throw at it @1440p maxed out great, most AAA games near 100 fps or more. Only small tiny complaint would be the position of the 12 pin is just kind of odd but I've made it look as good as I can. But lets be real if its 2021 and you're reading this you don't read reviews about this card and then choose to buy it, the card chooses you if you are so lucky as to be able to actually purchase it. Don't forget to mine crypto while you're not using it or you're missing out on literally free money!

Outstanding Card, Superior Quality.
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Coming from a Radeon VII and WOW, what a difference. This card absolutely rips. And it also looks fantastic! And it’s quiet! And it destroys benchmarks! And It feels more solid and dense than any other graphics card I’ve seen. BEST GPU EVER. I’m getting nearly double the performance in games than I was previously and in almost complete silence. This card is very good out of the box in terms of thermal management in my case. It gets even better after I but a mild undervolt on it. When my previous card was screaming bloody murder this thing is whisper silent. God I love this card. I know right now it’s extremely hard to get. Took me months of pulling my hair out to finally get one. Believe me when I say this, though: It’s worth it.

If you can find one, buy it.
|Posted .Owned for 4 months when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5This GPU is well worth the price. Assuming you can find it for MSRP. I installed and was up and running with no issues in no time. The blower style may not be the best for all cases, but it works just fine in my ITX case. Which is another pro to this GPU, it's the smallest of the 3080s, making it a good option for some small form factor cases. It's played AAA games in 4k with great framerates (60-130 fps) no problem.

Q: Questioncan it run ms paint
Asked by SomeGuy.
- A:Answer It depends on the rest of your PC. If you have the latest processors and maxed out RAM, you might be able to run Paint if you switch the UI in Windows to basic, and close any open applications. If you really want to run Paint, opt for 2x 3090's, those can run in SLI. Good luck.

Q: QuestionWhen will Best Buy have the (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 10GB GDDR6X PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card - Titanium and Black) In stock again?
Asked by Reece.
- A:Answer Best Buy needs to start taking pre-orders so atleast we know we're going to get one at some point and that would also eliminate scalpers. You don't have to be rocket scientist to figure this out Best Buy.

Q: QuestionWill this card ever come back out if so when
Asked by Bob.
- A:Answer They *will* come back out, but expect no forewarning announcement whatsoever. There is no definitive answer from BestBuy on this, and their reason is understandable, but frustrating. Restocks are the best-kept secret of this card. Giving no lead warning is policy for BestBuy, as a mechanism for detecting and subsequently at-least-trying-before-failing to eliminate bots. If the scalpers running bot armies know no more than you do, they are forced to perpetually hammer the site to detect stock change 24/7, and in so doing become more "visible" for BestBuys anti-botting detection and supposed blacklisting. Honestly, however, it doesn't do much good at all. This site, and specifically this page, are assaulted non-stop by bots disguising and/or masquerading IP info, etc. When they do come back in stock the bots cart them all within seconds, even with BestBuys "Second phase" authentication. That said, for what it is worth, I've watched in earnest since launch, and have worn out the label of my F5 key. BestBuy *appears* to restock every 1.5 to 2.5 weeks. The latest restock came in 1-week + 5-days after the prior. There is no specific day (Friday seems to be the most common, but I've seen Wednesday twice, and even a Monday), nor specific time (I've seen 6:00AM PST, 8:00AM PST, and 2:00PM PST). At the time of this answer being authored the last restock was 2020-12-02, a Wednesday, at 8:00am PST, and they were literally gone in seconds (less than ten). I managed to get to "second phase" authentication before the page hung indefinitely and eventually timed out, several times. It took another 25 minutes before the site finally hung out the DND sign, and proceeded to flip back and forth between "Coming Soon" and "Sold Out" a half dozen times during the subsequent two hours before finally settling on what you see now (Sold Out). The prior restock happened on 2020-11-20, a Friday, at 6:00am PST, and was also wiped out in seconds, with a similar experience on my part. There is no notify system; there is no wait-list. If you want it you have to be on the site, and have loaded the page to see the restock within seconds of it going live, or you're going to miss it (and, as I described earlier, even then, you'll likely still miss it). It is battle-royale, every man/woman/child/bot for themselves (one of those clearly having a distinct advantage).

Q: QuestionI currently have the NVIDIA GeForce 1060 GTX 3GB. Will I be able to replace it with this beauty? I hope it’ll fit in my iBUYPOWER PC.
Asked by Gingy94.
- A:Answer You'll have to bust out a tape measure, the RTX 3080 measure in at 11.2"(L) x 4.4" (W), which is much larger length wise than the 1060 which is only 6.8" (L). Side note, the RTX 3080 is a 350 watt card, the 1060 is only 230 watts, you'll also need to confirm your power supply can handle that. 700 watt or more is recommended and it needs 2x 8 pin pci-e plugs (with included adapter) or a new power supply with the very recently adopted 12 pin pci-e plug

Q: QuestionWill this be bale to support Pac-Man?
Asked by DocHolloday.
- A:Answer Good luck there. You may be able to play Pac-Man on medium with animations disabled at best. Some reports have shown significant frame drops when picking up a power pellet. You might be better off waiting for the 3090. Hope this helps.
