Customer Ratings & Reviews

Finally a good upgrade from the previous generations of cards. The ray tracing performance is actually usable in the current titles. However, the GDDR6X memory runs insanely hot. When running the card maxed out the memory can hit 105c+. You can buy new thermal pads for the GPU side and back plate to keep the temps within low to mid 90s. Considering the risk to the longevity of the card, I think Nvidia could of paid the little bit extra per card to make the product run within spec. Have to ding the quality and ease of use since you have to modify it to run properly.

Great card. Very fast. I was worried my Ryzen 3600X would bottleneck the card but it doesn’t - compared to benchmarks out there with faster CPUs and get the close to the same frame rates . Uses just over 300 watts at peak- make sure your power supply can handle it.

Fantastic card if you can get it for MSRP. Please note, it runs HOT. I have a Meshify C case and it wants to run at 65-75 celcius if OCed. Thermal pad mod + Thermal Grizzzly Kyronaut and a 140mm fan blowing directly on the center of the card got it down to 55 celcius @ 2070mhz under full load with no throttling.

A beast of a card. Runs every game and looks amazing.

High quality graphics card. Not a fan of waiting in line all night to get it but I rather do that then pay scalpers outrageous prices. I use it for gaming and it does everything I need it to do plus then some. I installed it in my aurora r7. I had to do some adjustments with the case fan but it fit barely.

Super fast and great price if you can get one for msrp.

The pinnacle of graphics the RTX 3080 is that perfect card in between a good GPU like the 3060ti/3070 and an overkill card like the RTX 3090. This card hits the perfect sweet spot just right and it shows in how much it's going for on the outside market.

I was able to snag this a little while back as I was looking to replace the 3070 I gave to my partner. If you can snag it, you won't be disappointed. Any game I've thrown at it has performed exceptional. I can see this card being used for a good 4-5 years.

Excellent GPU and Best Buy's purchasing process is the best in the industry- especially considering the current mess surrounding this card with scalpers, bots, miners, and COVID all affecting stock worldwide. I was very happy to secure this product at the authentic MSRP and have had no problems since installing it in my system.

Was extremely lucky with this and really happy to have it. Honestly haven't had the time to really play games but so far have been able to run Cyberpunk (@ 2k) with either all ultra or ray tracing with dlss. It gets fairly hot (around 73~) and actually heats up my room during winter. The aesthetics are absolutely gorgeous.

The card is a great gaming card. Can run all my current games on high settings. It runs a little hot so make sure you have proper cooling in place in your case. I would have given it 5 stars but the temperature management is one thing I think could have been improved. There are some blogs and YouTube videos on some mods on how to repad the thermals this but it’s not something every user will be comfortable with.

If you're lucky enough to get a 30 series GPU you will not be disappointed. Went from a GTX 1080 to RTX 3080 for 1440p gaming, struggling to maintain 100fps to now a stead 144+. Would suggest! If you're going to mine (and get a non LHR card) go with a non-reference card for better ram cooling.

An amazing card if you are able to get your hands on one. Only problem I ran into was the power draw because it would cause my psu to short and shut down my pc while under load. Upon getting a new psu I never ran into the issue again.

Amazing card for the price, but so hard to actually get.

This is an amazing card. Can handle anything you throw at it. Very hard to get but every thursday they are released online. They can get a bit hot but nothing a repad can’t fix

I love that best buy was able to provide this for me! The founder edition card just has a nice sleek look that is just simple and very beautiful! I would not hesitate on buying this card if you have the chance. It is A+ quality and it runs like a beast in my computer. Thank you thank you thank you Best Buy!

A couple months ago, I had the itch to build my first pc. At the time, I had only heard about the shortages about the GPU market. I was lucky to buy this one when it appeared on the 10th of June. So far, I have no complaints for this card in my first build. I can play any game on 1440p with high fps.

The best card on the market hands down if you can get it for this price. You can get some of the best performance possible without having to pay the premium of the higher end cards like the 3090 that give only slightly better performance for basically 2x the price.

Excellent GPU for 4K gaming. Handles recent AAA titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War well with 60+ FPS at maxed settings. VRAM can get a little toasty when playing titles with ray-tracing, so sufficient cooling or case with good airflow is recommended.

This thing has been great. Purchased back in April through the Best Buy website. It was pretty thrilling actually getting one of these. I Game mostly at 1440p and it has performed flawlessly. A nice upgrade from my 5700xt. I also mine when not in use to cover the cost. I'm a happy gamer.
