MSI GeForce RTX 2080 TI GAMING X TRIO Video Card

Pros: In my opinion this is the best 'out of box' 2080ti available. Some people love the looks while others hate it. I personally love it. The RGB lighting looks real nice and they don't really show it off enough in the stock product pictures. Is this card worth it? well I jumped from a 1070 to this 2080ti and I could not be happier. If you are playing games at 1080p then definitely skip this card, its not for you. But anyone playing at 1440 or higher will love how this thing handles. I am currently on a ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q 1440p at 165hz. In CoD4 on my 1070 I was averaging about 70-80 fps. Now I am averaging 180 fps. So far I don't have a reason to overclock but I know I will once more demanding titles show up (maybe once the ray tracing is finally turned on).

Cons: -HEAVY! So heavy that if you stand your computer upright (which most non-serial killers do) you will need to use the supplied sag prevention bracket. This brings us to the second con... -The sag prevention bracket is SO ugly. I hate that I have to use this thing in my rig but it is what it is. -Requires 2x 8pin and 1x 6pin power connectors, make sure you have this ready before it shows up -Also this card is YUUUUGE, make sure you have the room in your case.

Overall Review: If you have the money, get this card. I set alerts on this card to notify me once its available but it usually sold out in just minutes. I used a site called nowinstock (google it), this sent me an alert via text message that was much faster than neweggs alert email.

Pros: Super fast, quiet and coooooool. Afterburner software is awesome. What can I say its MSI!!!! 6 eggs!!!!!!

Cons: Absolutely None

Overall Review: Takes everything I can throw at it and askes for more. Best video card I've ever owned!!!! Two thumb's way up !!!!!

Pros: -Fast! Always good when reviewing a video card -Waaaay quieter than my Zotac 1080 AE -Looks pretty darn good as well, love the mostly neutral colours this time around

Cons: Nothing that i can really think of so far honestly. Will have to wait and see on that. But has been about 2 weeks now and all is well so far so, fingers crossed.

Overall Review: This thing is pretty crazy, I was shocked jumping from a 960 to a 1080, and the jump feels (albeit maybe not quit as extreme, but) definitely noticeable from the 1080 to this. I mostly got the 2080 ti for VR, since I purchased an index and wanted to fully experience the high refresh rates and bump in resolution smoothly and so far couldn’t be happier. Temps are very much in check- around 74 degrees under load, and managed to get a decent overclock (+150, +500) going without pushing very hard at all with Afterburner (though i don’t know if it’s even needed lol). The power phase thing is a little weird and would be a bit of a pain for serious overclockers, since it limits the amount of power that the card can draw, but not really an issue for me. Have always had positive experiences with MSI but i have never had to RMA anything either so, take that as you will. Overall would recommended!

Pros: No coil whine

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: I already posted a review but forgot to mention that I've noticed no coil whine with this GPU. Not sure if my PSU has anything to do with it (seasonic prime 850w titanium) but so far no coil whine at idle or under load.

Pros: - Very fast, when it worked - Ray tracing in Battlefield V is gorgeous

Cons: - It lasted about 5 weeks before producing a number of artifacts (wavy horizontal lines) when booting up in the BIOS phase, and in Windows. This occurred in two different system builds. After it began to produce problems, it would no longer output video to more than one display, and would not display video at resolutions higher than 1024 x 768.

Overall Review: - I just recently initiated the RMA process, and hope that it will go smoothly, resulting in a working replacement.

Pros: 4K gaming at 60+ FPS on ultra settings for most games 120+ FPS for 1440p on ultra. Beefy card, great cooling, looks fantastic, has RGB. Really this card is fantastic... in all ways except where it really matters -- that is works reliably.

Cons: This card lasted for about 5 weeks of use. Received on Nov 11 2018, went on vacation Dec 21. Came back Jan 8 to a card that started displaying "space invader" artifacts when playing games or running benchmarks. Even the Windows desktop started artifacting before I took the card out to RMA.

Overall Review: I'd recommend this card in 6 months or so once they figure out their reliability issues. 5 weeks is a joke. For now save your money.

Pros: Extremely fast. I am coming up on the 5 month mark on ownership on mine. It has the dreaded Micron GDDR5 that many suspected to be the cause of all these RTX failures. This card has been thoroughly abused with huge amounts of gaming, etc and it still runs like a champ, and overclocks well to boot.j The large cooler does a decent job of cooling it. Fans are still reasonable at higher fan speeds.

Cons: Card is large and has some noticeable sag in my case. I believe the 3 8 pin PSU connectors is overkill, especially when they don't give you near the Power Limit adjusting to go along with that. Of course price is high for all these RTX 2080 (ti)s

Overall Review: Man...I hope I don't jinx myself with leaving this review and my card has issues soon. So far so good. Very happy with RTX 2080 Ti performance. Also I want to give a shout out to MSI RMA department. I recently had to send in an MSI GTX 1080 Ti Gaming X because one of the fans died on it, causing high temps. I shipped the card out to MSI on a Tuesday and received it back on the following Tuesday. Thoroughly impressed on the week turn around to get my card fixed and returned......

Pros: Absolutely a beautiful powerful beast, Its ability is worth the price for me.

Cons: But it died in just few days after I install it. The screen goes messy and the resolution is locked. Disappointing for a such high end cart at such a high price.

Overall Review: Guess go for the 2080tis is not the best choice for now. A lot of problems occur on various brands of cards
