It works great however I should have waited a few more months to purchase. The price was really inflated.

The GPU runs great and easily handles most any kind of test I've ran on it. Amazing for gaming and streaming in HD video.

Been waiting for a 3080 and for a 12gb around 1000 dollars even though its pretty expensive, the price is around 350 dollars cheaper since gpu prices has come down finally. High recommend for performance and price in 2022. not bad since the gtx 40's are coming soon later this year but to get one and at retail is a maybe without fighting bots and greed. and those are just the normal version not a super or ti variant most likely will come late 2023 or 2024. im good

The RTX 3080 12gb is an amazing card. It can play most games at 1440p while maintaining 100+fps. The only con is the price point, paying $1300 for a card that retails at $800 is a scam. The 12gb and 10gb versions provide the same performance but the 12gb is like $300 more. I would personally get the 10gb RTX 3080 or spend $100 more for a 3080 ti.

Absolute beast of a card, is doing okay heatwise in my case even though I haven't tried undervolting it yet. Be aware the card is ridiculously huge - it dwarfs the 2070 Super I upgraded from, which is itself a huge card. Make sure it will fit in your case before buying it.
One other caveat - the card wouldn't output video until I adjusted my BIOS to use PCIe Gen 3 - the "auto" setting was confusing matters. If the card won't display then make sure to check your BIOS settings for PCIe generation. Knocking a star off "ease of use" even though it was a motherboard issue because it would be easy to think the card was defective if you didn't know the PCIe BIOS setting as a possible issue.
This is the most powerful video card I've ever owned, and it is very, very impressive. Handles Cyberpunk 2077 like a dream with most of the bells and whistles on and runs smooth as silk. Very good card that I got at a great price.
I wish it was easier to turn off the RGB logo, but that's a small complaint.

This is actually a 384-bus width card. At the price of $1050 it's still inflated but performs well. Getting Psycho settings 1440p @ 60FPS with DLSS on Cyberpunk. The 12GB VRAM is good future-proofing.

I bought it NIB. I felt like I was really rolling the dice on the card but it has been nothing but solid. upraged from the 3080 Founders Edition. 3 fans make a huge difference in cooling.

Excellent card! Runs a bit hot, but with the right case and set up you can get it to run cool. I have a Corsair 5000X case with a good fan set up and haven’t seen it go over 65c.

Great card so far, but extremely large. Be sure to check your case dimensions, I had to remove a cable shielding panel in a large midtower to get it to fit.
