    Powers 3x 1440p monitors with ease and blazes through most my games at 144 fps or higher. Easy to set up and looks beefy. Thermals are great and love the comfort knowing I have an EVGA warranty at the helm.

    Excellent card and isn't too large. If you set up your own fan curve, it stays very cool and very quiet. Even on stock, it does a nice job. RBG lights nice touch, but aren't too flashy. Idle it sits at 28 and during games it goes up to 68. During benchmarking, it'll go up to around 70 degrees. Really happy with this. Cons: Haven't been able to overclock it past 2100 stable and not a fan of the red lips trim.

    Was lucky enough to pick one of these up directly shipped from bestbuy to my house so I didn't have to deal with the entire store pickup debacle. Looking at benchmarks of other cards, this compares to other 3080's within 5% assuming they have similar power limits. This one is 350 watts. I undervolt mine and have gotten good performance / temperatures with it. I feel good about having this in case the 3080ti releases within 90 days, and can use EVGA's step up. If it doesn't release, within 90 days, I'm still content.

    Greating Performance for Ray-Tracing

    Bought this for my friend to upgrade his rig. EVGA has not let me down yet with their products and the 3080 XC3 Ultra Gaming continues that pattern. While I like the looks of the FE cards more, the EVGA card has a subtle touch of RGB and the blackness keeps it low key in the case (assuming your case is black). The card performs well and stays cool so no complaints there. My friend has used it to play games with ray-tracing and the graphics have been beautiful.

    Im getting 200+ fps with all ultra settings in most games. Haven't had any problems with the card yet. It runs pretty hot and sux up 400 watts, maybe best to have a 850 watts power supply even when 750 is recommended. Only kinda con i have is the fan curve is in the firmware so i can't change it unless i leave msi afterburner on in the background. The fans will not turn on until the GPU hits 61 Celsius, this is the factory settings.

    I was very, very, very lucky to score this card through Best Buy, beating the bots and scalpers. A couple points: 1. You NEED power for this card, 850w is safe. 2. You NEED good case cooling, it will run hot 3. Don’t even bother if you plan to play anything at 1080p, this is way overkill. So, if you have the power, the cooling, and at least 1440p, buckle up. It’s a beautiful experience.

    One of the lower-priced 3080s

    Been using this 3080 for 10 months now with no issues. Very happy with the performance and it being one of the lower priced models. Almost all 3080s are essentially identical in performance, so there's not much point in getting the more expensive ones (not that most people really have a choice on which one they find in stock).

    This card met all of my expectations. It is very well built and has run everything that I have thrown at it flawlessly. The highest temps that I have encountered during gaming was about 74 degrees C. and I haven’t invested any great effort into maximizing the cooling capabilities of my overall system. I’ve had many EVGA products and they have never failed me.

    Glad I was at the right place at the right time to nab one of these. I was able to pay for almost the whole thing by selling my old 2070 on ebay. The performance is roughly twice what I got with the 2070, and the card is actually a bit smaller. Great card that isn't insanely bulky like some other 30 series.

    As expected. Works great. Expected more RGB, but it’s a 3080. I CANT complain. EVGA lights up on the top right and on the front left side of the card when it’s installed. The right side of the front you’d expect to light up as well but doesn’t. Ohh well. Amazing product great performance/graphics. A must buy!

    The EVGA XC3 RTX 3080 is great! EVGA makes fantastic GPUs. Mine doesn’t overclock as high as I’d like but I attribute that to bad luck with the silicon lottery. I undervolt anyways (I get more consistent performance and better temps this way). This cards runs everything I throw at it.

    If you're lucky enough to get this card on a BestBuy drop, I'd highly recommend it! For one, it comes from EVGA, a great card manufacturer and a great warranty policy. It's also very reasonably priced for a 3080 compared to other companies with prices in the mid 1,000's.

    The EVGA 3080 is among one of the best variations out there for both cooling and performance. Unfortunately all partner cards are getting tariff price increases, but even at sub-$1000 this is a great card to get if you can get your hands on one. EVGA has a great reputation as well.

    This card is one of the best 2 slot tall options out there. This card at stock settings stays below 80°c in a case while remaining very quiet, big shout-out to bestbuy for having anti scalping and bot protections which allowed me to even get this card at msrp in the first place!

    If you can find one at MSRP this is a great graphics card from a great brand. Uses 2 x 8 pin power connections so most systems greater than 650 watts should handle it. Paired with a modern CPU this will handle modern AAA titles with ease.

    this 3080 does wonders. If you want to game on 4k at 60fps you dont' need a 3090. This will do it. Obviously you wont be playing at ultra settings but the difference from ultra to med-high, you aren't missing much. You'd have to be nit picky to tell the difference.

    My 1440p 165hz monitor works full time now. My best friend got me this card from EVGA directly while I was waiting for my step up from 2080 super which should take long long time. All EVGA products are top notch and this one too. Mine came with black lip which is better than red. Make sure to update firmware, driver and X1 when you upgrade from EVGA GPU. Finally my watch is over and BIG thanks to my BF.
