I am super happy with this graphics cards. It is very stylish, but where it really matters is in performance. I am able to play all the games I want to at ultra high settings at 1080p. Cyberpunk 2077, Cod Warzone and Cod Black Ops are currently my most intensive games and they look great. This graphics cards is quite intensive so I opted for an 850 W power supply and fortunately have not been running into any power issues. It is paired with an AMD 3600 processor. I did a lot of research on how to build my computer with this graphics card, so if you are looking to buy it make sure you do your research first.

Unicorns DO exist

This is it. The unicorn we all seek. Absolutely FANTASTIC performance and it looks pretty sleek. This is the ONLY way to get a 3080 at MSRP. The scalped prices on these things is a war crime, but Best Buy has stuck to their pricing model despite the insanity of the current market. That said, it is VERY difficult to get hold of one of these boys. I got extremely lucky, saw a twitter stock alert and threw this guy in the cart after the obligatory gray/yellow anxiety.
It can run your fun games at 4k and will push mad frames on e-sport titles at 1440p or 1080p.

This card is pretty sweet. I got it by accident, I wanted to get a card but figured it wouldn't be anytime soon due to supply constraints. I happened to refresh the page and it was available and without hesitation, I clicked buy. I have an ITX case and though it is pretty big for an ITX case, with the AIO, I had to be careful which GPU card would fit. I knew that this card would be the limit of what would fit and it does.... perfectly.
It runs great and with the new design of cooling, it actually runs cooler in my case than the GPU it replaced. Very happy with my purchase.

It'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!

Let me start by saying that it was pretty difficult to buy this card. Having that said, best buy has probably the best system to let you buy one of them and have a chance of doing so. That aside card is great. So much performance for that price. The only thing I would have loved was more vram. But either way, games run smooth in ultra setting 1440p, even when vram is capped. I still need to buy a good 4k monitor to give a opinion about 4k performance, even though I'm pretty sure that it will handle it perfectly.

The graphics card overall is very nice and is very sleek looking and performs very well however I am taking a star off because of the hassle of trying to actually purchase one the only reason I have one is pure luck these cards need to be more readily available. Also very long, overlapped my cable entry spots

If you get lucky and get one of these it might not be worth your money it depends on what hardware you currently got I would say if your coming from a lower end card or a high end 9 series you’ll definitely benefit but if you game at 1080p or 1440p with a higher end 10 series or 20 series it’s definitely not worth upgrading I only see the benefit in getting one of these babies if u game at 4k... overall I would highly recommend this product

Best GPU Deal on the Market

This is an amazing GPU. I’ve had this now for a few months, and it makes easy work of anything I through at it, playing everything I love on Ultra settings on a 1440p high refresh monitor.
I struggled for months to get one, and finally got one in January this year. I can say for all the pain trying to get a 3080 FE, it’s absolutely worth it.
If you’re lucky enough to get one of these, you won’t be disappointed.

There isn't much to say other than this is a fantastic card. For those who have the chance to purchase one don't think just buy it. I will say my VRAM ran a little hot (103C was the max I recorded) but I was able to fix this with a thermal pad replacement and my temps dropped around 20 degrees.
NOTE: Do not do a thermal pad replacement unless you know what you are doing as you could break your card.

Big improvement over the 1080ti

Upgrading from sli 2x 1080ti I didn't think I would see a huge improvement. I was wrong.
This card is much better at handling high rez and high fps, all while staying in the 70s, something my 1080ti's did not do well. Dlss 2.0 is great if you can keep it in the "quality" setting, it gives a significant fps boost and adds smoothness to your games. Personally, the Dlss is my favorite feature of this card, and I hope more games use it in the future. Ray-tracing looks very good on this card, but I'm still hesitant to use it fully on games that higher fps is preferred. The card is very quiet for me and it's idle temp is usually 26c. By default settings, the fans on this card do not even spin until it warms up to over 30c. Under load and stress tests, I was able to hit a max of 76c. Under the same tests' I have hit over 90c+ and thermal throttled on my 1080ti's. Also wanted to mention that my particular 3080 has zero coil whine, so overall, very quiet and cool.
If I have one negative thing to say about this gpu, It's the power cable. The card has a great look with it's minimal rgb (which is controllable in iQUE) but the power cable plugs into it at an awkward spot close to the middle and covers up the white geforce logo. I bought the evga adapter plug and it looks much better with it, but the adapter that this card comes with is not the best looking.
Overall, I'm very satisfied with this gpu. I highly recommend it if you can get it at msrp. Nvidia or AMD would have to make a very significant leap before I consider upgrading this.

10/10 card, -10/10 for Best Buy not being able to go against scalpers. I am a legitimate buyer and got very lucky to actually get my hands on one. I had my notifications on for this card which could’ve only been done before it was released and had 10/10 speedy hands to get one. Don’t expect these to be readily available till late this year or early next. God speed to those who try and get one

Well made. Works Perfectly. Ray Tracing greatly increased Doom Eternal visually and plays well on new 4k TV. DLSS wasn't necessary because it plays so well. Not noisy even after hours of intense playing. Great Card

Amazing performance for the price. Too bad the Memory Junction Temperature approach 110c sometimes in games! Too bad we don't really have a choice what exact model to get in this time and age, so if you want this card to last long - take care of it, take it apart and replace the stock thermal pads over the VRAM with a quality ones with at least 12 W/mK of thermal transfer, and consider even installing an AIO watercooler from Bykski. Mine is on the way right now.

Great product when you can actually get your hands on it for a reasonable price. Run practically everything on the highest possible settings at high refresh rates.
Cons: Bad for mining. Crypto miners these dont work for you.
