Customer Ratings & Reviews

Runs very quiet and performs great in almost any game. Ray tracing doesn't run very well without Dlss but works well enough with it to enjoy many games that offer it. physically the card looks okay in my opinion and the RGB for the EVGA logo looks nice. The card does use a lot of power and if left on for extended periods of time will produce a lot of heat especially with heavy use. 4/5

Incredible price for the performance, this card crushes FPS at 1440p. Most games run at 165 FPS (capped by my monitor) at max settings. Lowest I've seen it was 110 FPS in Hell Let Loose which is a terribly optimized game. Haven't tried overclocking as it really doesn't need it, even for heavy gaming. After purchasing, I saw some reviews that it can run a tad warm which concerned me. While this is somewhat true out of the box (typically sits around 74 degrees for very demanding games), slightly adjusting the fan curve in MSI afterburner to 80% at 68 degrees has this card running at or below this point while still being quiet. Highly recommend this small and easy tweak to prolong the life of your hardware. Also make sure you use two separate PCIe cables to get full power to the card. If you're lucky enough to get this card in your cart during a drop, do not hesitate for one second, buy it.

Never had an issue on performance and easily was getting 240 fps on games such as Overwatch. Very quiet and looks great in my build.

Easiest card to get if you’re well prepared. I was ready to checkout when the card went on sale online at around 12 pm on Wednesday. I am a gamer and not a miner/scalper. This card is an amazing value for the money. If you want one you just have to be committed & persistent and forget about the scalpers. Best Buy’s queue system works great, just get here first. And for the card review, it runs quiet and relatively cool I ran cyberpunk just to see how that game looks with ray tracing and it looks great. And lastly, the card itself is pretty big so double check the card dimensions so after that long hunt that beast will fit inside your case. Only negative is that this card does not have ICX cooling nor lighting on the geforce RTX 3080 portion of the card (only the EVGA logo) and for the price I would expect that it would at least have a static light.

It’s a great card with pretty good looks, I have had zero problems with it, for such a thin card it has great thermals (your results may vary depending on cases). Overclocking headroom is meh at best, but I do not need it to begin with. Great value, good for 1440p.

If you can somehow manage to buy this card, you should not hesitate to do so. The 3070 cards themselves are greats gaming GPUs for people who are playing in 1080p resolution with the goal of high framerate. I could manage to get an average of 100~ FPS for most new AAA games such as Halo Infinite. eSports titles such as League of Legends, Valorant or CS:GO run at 144+ FPS with ease all the way up to 4k resolution.

Great performance and cooling, price is reasonable as well.

This card gets the type of performance I would expect from a 3080. The only reason I won’t give it 5 stars it that it runs a bit hot for a 3 fan card at around 83 Celsius. If you plan on overclocking this card I would recommend you water cool it or reapply thermal paste and pads. Other than that great card!

Great GPU for my system, runs great. Since I bought it May 24, 2022 everything has worked until this past week. The middle fan works sometimes now and when it does work it makes a loud rattling noise. Only reason for the 4 star is due to the fan issue. I previously had an EVGA 1080 FTW3 card for years and had no issues with that one.

Great stock card out of the box. Stays cool under heavy load. Only downside is it isn't really that overclockable. Runs everything I'v thrown at it and hasn't slowed down.

Beast of a card for what it is. Runs smooth and couldn't be happier, miles ahead of my RTX 2060. A bit pricey, but what card isn't right now.

Great gpu , will run anything out right now. Glade I got a great deal on it,

This was a great purchase! I have no regrets on this card. Only thing is it’s pretty big & runs a bit hot so make sure you have efficient cooling for it.

Just be wary this is the XC3 cooling for the 3080 with GDDR6X memory, some thermal throttling is to be expected. Use the EVGA queue to step up to FTW3 version.

Performs just like a 3080 would but this is the lowest price you can get from an AIB partner. Thermals are ok, as this is just a 2 slot card, not the giant 3 slot thicc FTW3. Some would prefer this for its size, but the smaller heatsink does mean you have to spin the fans up a bit.

Excellent price, awesome card, so hard to get. I got extremely lucky and randomly refreshed the page and by pure luck the add to cart button was yellow, before any alerts or bots got to it. I know its not the 700$ that the founders card is but its quieter, (in my opinion) looks better and EVGA offers much better support than NVIDIA ever will. With the new 25% tariff on graphics card they only increased the price by around 12% so I would not be surprised if they were taking a loss so I would not complain about the price. (The packaging is just clamshell plastic and the unboxing experience does not feel premium like other cards, but I will not deduct points because I personally just care about the card.)

I've had this card for about a month now, and I'm thrilled with it. Great performance and of course comes with EVGA's stellar, enthusiast-friendly warranty and customer support. I've had no issues at all with the card itself, but I did notice the boost throttling, fans got a little loud, and temps get up to 77c under load, which is normal behavior out of the box for these cards. I went ahead and undervolted it to 875mV at 1875 MHz, and holy cow! Under load, temps dropped 10c, power consumption dropped 80ish W, fans are barely audible, and while Max frames per second in CP2077, BL3 dropped about 3 or 4, average fps came up because throttling essentially stopped. I highly recommend this card, and undervolting it if you're comfortable with tweaking it.

Got super lucky to get an RTX card, and a 3080 at that! Super happy. Pros - Love the sleeker design compared to the competitor models, it's more subtle with no crazy rgb, so it fits my build perfectly - Raw power! Haven't found a game that stumps this guy yet, able to run everything at Ultra no problems. My CPU is the true bottleneck now - Fans are surprisingly quiet - Only 2 6+2 Pins and not 3. I know some people might not like that, but to not have to use a splitter or an additional PCIe port on my PSU is a nice plus Cons - How hard it was to get one - Does run a bit hot. I've read of people replacing the thermal pads on them, but I'm not trying to ruin my product here. I'll just make sure the airflow is good and hope for the best. Plus I hear EVGA has incredible customer service, so I won't be too worried if it craps out for any reason. Happy to be a part of the EVGA fam. Thanks Best Buy!

Best bang/$ outside of the 3080 FE. Not as over the top as the FTW3 class cards but far better value and 99% of those cards FPS without excessive heat and power consumption.

Great speedy card, delivers as expected. Questionable cooling fans, they don’t hold up well and need periodic replacements. At least Fans are inexpensive.
