EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 ULTRA GAMING Video Card, 10G-P5-3897-KL, 10GB GDDR6X, iCX3 Technology, ARGB LED, Metal Backplate, LHR

Pros: - excellent value/performance
- more than enough rgb
- bought for a 1440@165hz monitor. can run everthing maxed out at the highest frame rate
- cooling is just perfect, not that noisy on high usage levels
- one of the best "top of the line" 3080s out there

Cons: - I wish newegg could stop trying to shove that many "combos" in their product shuffle

Overall Review: Is a perfect card for me; I upgraded from a rtx 2060 so I'm more than happy with it. Try to not get scalped out there guys, I won the shuffle and for me that was the only way I could get one. I don't live in the states or canada, so getting something online was my only bet as I live in colombia. Product shuffle is a good mechanism to avoid scalpers to get the goodies(other retailers couldn't care less about solving that), even if sometimes newegg push ridiculous priced combos

Pros: Powerful card
Quick and hassle free RMA process

Cons: Was defective right out of the box
Runs hot

Overall Review: This card...everything seemed fine when I first installed it. But after putting it through its paces, it started to blackscreen, until it quit altogether (less than a week installed). Contacted EVGA and got an RMA instantly (from research, it appears this card had known issues). Got a new replacement card from EVGA (the newer 12gb version). The new card works properly but tends to run hot (memory junction) and the fans quickly spins up to full speed to keep the heat under control. I will be replacing the stock thermal pads with some after market stuff to see if I can get the thermals under control. It can still run fast, but I'm avoiding overclocking this GPU until the thermals improve.
