Most Favorable Review

Far better value than I realized

GIGABYTE Radeon RX 6800 GAMING OC 16G Graphics Card, WINDFORCE 3X Cooling System, 16GB 256-bit GDDR6, GV-R68GAMING OC-16GD Video Card, Powered by AMD RDNA 2, HDMI 2.1
GIGABYTE Radeon RX 6800 GAMING OC 16G Graphics Card, WINDFORCE 3X Cooling System, 16GB 256-bit GDDR6, GV-R68GAMING OC-16GD Video Card, Powered by AMD RDNA 2, HDMI 2.1

Pros: - Shipped within a day, arrived within 3 - Very good performance out of the box and with a mild OC on top of that able to get very good performance out of this card - runs very cool, no thermal issues - solid build quality

Cons: - Fans get very loud at high speeds - I'm not a hug fan of the aesthetics - very thicc card, basically a triple slot design, ended up blocking 2 of my sata ports

Overall Review: - I would recommend this to anyone looking to game 1440p 60 ultra on current AAA SP titles and 144hz on AAA multiplayer titles at High settings. - Esports games (csgo, valorant, RL) easily hitting 1440p 144hz max settings - I am honestly suprised at how well this card performs, I was orignally looking for a 6800XT or 3080, but this was what I actually got ordered and delivered and I am not disapointed. The card is a beast, especially coming from a RX 480.

as advertised, but a bit louder than expected

Pros: -fit everything I had in my antec 302 -Tempered glass is nice - Thumbscrews are good -lots of cable management options - Good airflow, better than my antec with the same number of fans

Cons: -bit tight for larger GPUs so be careful, but you can lower the front case fance and move the lower drive bay a bit to fit longer GPUs

Overall Review: Recommened

Pros: Not DOA, doing it's job so far.

Cons: seems loud, even for a 7200 rpm drive. i fear that the drive will fail prematurely, just because of the noises it makes...

So far so good
