    Amazing Graphics Leap

    Amazing GPU, powerful has the faster VRAM too compared to the 3070. Only thing I wish it was a tad cheaper, but other then that its awesome. Be sure though you have a bit of a beefier PSU some lower wattage PSUs might not work well with this card.

    Waited a long time in line for this. Using it to mine ETH as one of the only cards that isn’t hash rate limited. Pulls in a nice 98 MH/s. It does get throttled due to temps on VRAM but nothing some pads/paste can’t fix.

    Excellent 2020/2021 GPU

    Excellent card (although very hard to acquire). This thing is a beast and is a fantastic value for what it is. GDDR6X is amazing and provides a noticeable upgrade. 10GB is a "enough" for 2020, but it's the only disappointing feature of this card.

    When I finally obtained one I love it, don’t give in to the scalpers and you too will soon be running games at 1440p max settings with 150+ FPS!

    It's definitely an improvement over my GTX 1070, but I hope more of these come into stock eventually so others can get one of these as well.

    It’s a great GPU although these FE cards have a lot of memory issues in terms of them getting really hot. Nvidia says it’s within spec but it is still really hot. The build quality is amazing.

    This card is a complete powerhouse.. I have a 1440P 165Hz Monitor and this easily delivers those necessary frames at ultra quality, and when you turn on DLSS on supported games it gets even better. Couldn't be happier with this purchase.

    What else can you say. Best looking cooler design in this generation of cards. It's not as quiet as the huge 3-fan 3 slot cards out there but it's enough to keep it cool in a well ventilated case.

    Finally able to get one at msrp after all this time. It is a worthy upgrade to my "aging" 1080 ti. For me it is the absolute maximum amount of money to spend on a graphics card.

    Amazing Card! Hard to Get

    It took me since September to get my hands on one of these cards but I finally got one. So far my experience with Best Buy has been very good. They were fast and I actually got it a day early. Overall I’m really enjoying this card.

    Excellent card, if you are trying to get one you already know that. The vram temps do run a bit high, but they are within specs. If you are brave enough to try, the termal pad mod can reduce vram temps by ~20 degrees.

    I was so excited to get this card. I was going to go with a 3060 TI, but they had a few of the 3080's left at the drop at the end of August. Amazing 4K, somewhat future-proof for me. Upgraded from a 1080 TI.

    I got this for my brother and he loves it. We were looking for this since launch. I would suggest patience and eventually you’ll get one. It’s not Best Buy’s fault that it’s hard to get, their systems actually helps deter bots.

    Purchased this for a friend and now I want one for myself. I am able to go from 100fps at 1440p low graphics, to 120+fps at 1440p on high graphics playing Warzone. Very impressive performance and looks so classy!

    This works great. I’d recommend. I just wish it had a better cooling system, it’s so loud and it’s hot unless you put the fans at 75-85.

    Defective fan out of the box

    This is an excellent GPU and even runs great bench marks with only one fan running. But beware you may get one with a bad fan and have to do an RMA and wait another month to get it replaced by Nvidia. It was very disappointing considering what it takes to get one of these cards and now I have to wait to get a reconditioned card back to replace a new purchase. I would have preferred to exchange it at Best Buy but with the new email verification, it makes it nearly impossible to get another one to replace it. Good luck!

    If you can get it at this price, it is 100% worth it for rtx 3080. One thing that you might want to buy other cards like evga, is that it doesnt have the best thermals and has 12 pin connector.

    It's good to be a total tech member you get to buy everything you want from Best Buy like this great card here. Everybody else overprices the 3080. Soon everybody will be able to get one.
