Shyt coming next week. Thanks breh. Card overpriced as fucck but damn
Is worth it, my 3080 cooking like the X Box Series X, that big muthafukka quiet and cool, I wish I could've got one
I don't think it over goes over 70, I was cleaning my case so I had it open, and touched the surface shyt was hot as hell not burn your hand hot but I'm like damn with use I can see the electronic components wearing down or maybe thats just how the back plate is suppose to be it was the first time I ever touched a GPU with it on
I’ve never touched one while working but just knowing how much heat is coming out of the case in general I’d imagine it would be hot to touch. I have heard some conflicting theories about whether the new design is good for the rest of the components, but most agree as long as you have good air flow to get it out of the case it should be good. Sub 70 at load is damn good tho
especially for the power draw. Is your overall performance up to snuff?I’ve never touched one while working but just knowing how much heat is coming out of the case in general I’d imagine it would be hot to touch.

With this new driver update, everything seems quiet and cooler, I'm playing horizon 100fps its a 64 degrees this is with almost every turned up, back plate has a hell, I never touched my 1080ti but it never got hot in the settings rise, but I guess anything that's 64 degrees will be hot if you touch it lmao

Buy a 3080. If you are only gaming, there’s no need to buy the 3090.Shyt coming next week. Thanks breh. Card overpriced as fucck but damn
Even in workloads where 24GB should give it an advantage, it doesn’t over the 3080.
Wait for rocket lake
