ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3060 DirectX 12 Ultimate ROG-STRIX-RTX3060-O12G-GAMING 12GB 192-Bit GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 HDCP Ready Video Card, OC Edition

Pros: Was glad to get it, so I could finish my build. It works great runs Destiny 2 at 120fps.

Cons: A little on the expensive side, but considering I had been trying to get a gpu for a couple of months I got it anyway.

Overall Review: It's a really good looking gpu, that performs great. I have been trying for months to get a 3080, but decided to get this one to hold me over until stock normalizes. I'm not disappointed at all very happy with my purchase.

Pros: - When I'm not running any graphic intensive applications it runs very cool - like 80°F without having to add fans in my case or change the airflow. - It really looks awesome - Seems to work well with Linux so far (running Pop!_OS [an Ubuntu derivative]), but haven't tested it on any actual games yet.

Cons: - (non-con?) It was too sexy for my [old] case. So sexy it hurts. So I had to get a new case (it was also just a little bit too big to fit in my old case since I had a water cooling radiator mounted on the front, it was very painful waiting for a new case in order to use the card). My new case has a dark tinted glass side panel so I can see the graphics card in all of its beauty. Old case: Fractal Design C (no transparent side panel) New case: Fractal Meshify 2 (black, with a dark tinted glass side panel) - fits with absolutely no problems now, so much room to spare, and it's pretty quiet. It looks absolutely incredibly with the lighting from the graphics card. Water cooling: Artic Liquid Freezer II 280 AiO (connected to processor, not the graphics card)

Overall Review: I believe the fans intentionally don't turn on unless it reaches a certain temperature, which kinda freaked me out at first, but I don't like my computer being loud all the time especially when I'm not using it. So I like that now.
