EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 ULTRA GAMING, 12G-P5-3967-KR, 12GB GDDR6X, iCX3 Technology, ARGB LED, Metal Backplate

This GPU is an absolute beast. 4k ultra settings at 100+ FPS is what you can expect. Heat can be an issue if you don't have a case with good airflow. I undervolt mine, and temps stay in the low to mid 60's *C. The FTW3 Ultra version of this card has plenty of room for overclocking, mine has reached power draw of over 460 watts while testing overclocks. The cooler is fine, and with the fans at or below 80% it's very quiet, however if the fans go above 80% they get pretty loud. Also, this GPU is quite expensive, several hundred dollars more than a standard 10GB 3080, with around 20% more performance. However at around $500 cheaper than a 3090 with virtually identical gaming performance, it's a decent value for people looking for maximum gaming performance.

Very impressed with this card, upgraded from the evga 3060 shown in pic this card ofcourse is much larger as expected. I saw a lot of people talking about how hot this card runs and I think it is important to say yes it does make a ton of heat but the cooler is definitely adequate as far as I can tell. When gaming I run normally 78 to 80c and memory temps stay around 88c to 90c which is not terrible, I do have a custom fan curve setup which I feel is smart to do, your fans will be running around 80% or so when gaming if you want to keep your temps right which is not that bad for me atleast. I was using msi afterburner for my fan curves but it started acting weird and sometimes wouldnt work so I use EVGA's precision x1 software which works pretty well so far. I mostly have played cyberpunk, rdr2, fallout4 since I got the card just the games im playing at this time and it will run all of them at basically maxed out settings with well over 60fps. I leave ray tracing off on cyberpunk it seems to not really be worth it for the fps decrease. If your case doesnt have decent airflow then I would definitely expect all of your temps to rise because it does expell some heat basically turns your computer into a space heater. The PSU im using is the corsair hx850 which is more than enough to run this card along with my i9 10850k

EVGA 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra - simply the best value in a performance GPU Amazed that Amazon was the seller & shipper with 6% discount @ time of purchase, then my Amazon Prime & CC 5% "credit" made this a great value for this graphics card. The 3090 might have up to a 5% performance edge; but, boy do you pay a lot more (~50%) for that tiny bump in performance No issues, plug & play, used HDMI cable. My Nvidia driver was already new enough to see this card in my X570 build. The EVGA X1 software ver 1.2.6 which was already installed on this PC - recognized the new GPU & advised an update to the firmware. The X1 firmware updated without issue. You just need to wait for it to complete. I highly recommend using a UPS power supply, you do not want any interruptions during the update. Yes 30 series GPUs run warmer than previous designs ... that is the price of a more powerful GPU. So, you want excellent air flow ... & not a tiny case &your case fans need to be moving plenty of air Room Temp 68F [20C] ..... GPU die Max 60C @ 2040 MHz with a small OC setting in EVGA X1 software. This is an Open bench test & has been running like this for Over 12 hours. Cards fans @ 90% That is a Delta T of 40C (die temp Rise, over room temp) - the case, fans & room temp you use can impact your results Using an EVGA 850 T2 PSU with No Issues on a x570S MB & 5950X AMD 16 core CPU Not OC CPU or heavy loads on CPU -- pulls 600-650W, with the 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra under Full load The only Con in the whole process .... Was the shipping from Amazon. Package was not shipped for 2 day delivery - Amazon choose to ship ground 5 days? no idea why with a Prime account. The Bigger issue ... did someone try to open this box ? It was destroyed! Crushed! Torn Open in Spots! I made the UPS driver wait while I inspected my package contents - Box was destroyed & partially re-taped in few spots .... What in the World happened to that box, was my first thought. ..... the outer shipping box was heavily damaged --> crushed & corners seams torn open in several places ... looks like someone might have tried to remove the contents ?? ... The EVGA thin "retail box" (with the Pictures of GPU) only had minimal damage ... torn where it looks like someone tried to open? & 1 corner of the box had a Small dent. ..... The inner retail "heavy box" inside the retail package was not damaged at All ? This does not equate to the destroyed shipping box. I do not believe this damage was from the automated convener system UPS uses ... again almost like someone tried to open the shipping Box & retail package .... the EVGA factory seals were still intact. So, I took possession of the package from UPS & signed for this EVGA 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra

i payed more than i should cause covid but this is a workhorse and has been going strong for 5yrs and im going to squeeze every second of it i can, which is looking like it might last another 5 with the BS Nvidia is pumping out lately. i play games more than i should, wont say how much BUT i play my pc on a 50" samsung qled; true 4K? on low settings its "playable"; 3840x2160? med and you can compete; 2560x1440? maxxed out settings. mileage varies by developer! i was playing gta5 @ high graphics on a laptop from 2012 when it came out! Dont fall for the frame gen dlss garbage! this might be one of the last true tech leaps in raw power for awhile!

For years I was searching reddit "gpu gaming at 1080p" etc ya know how it goes. Ended up with the 1660 TI and before that a 7970 GHZ edition, but was always underwhelmed. Struggled a lot at max settings with 1080p in modern AAA titles and forget ray tracing. So I decided to go all out and buy this card, found one listed for around $870. I didn't read the fine print before purchasing and it ended up being used. I received the card in a generic Amazon box but was well packaged. The card itself was in immaculate condition and wouldn't have guessed it was second hand besides the packaging. Paired with a 3800x and 16 GB of RAM, never had the system memory be a bottleneck and could max settings at 1080 and 1440 w/ rt easily, and most at 2160. Now with a month under my belt this seems like a good buy for a powerful card that'll last for years.

Plays games like a charm, but I'm worried that the card will die sooner than later due to the amount of heat it produces. I contacted EVGA support and they stated that the temps are normal. 90+ on core, memory, and hot spot... I don't even have to doing anything graphic intensive(Digital work or Gaming), even if it is at 78% of utilization fan screams bloody murder while trying to air fry whatever is in my case. I either got a unit that the thermal pad/paste wasn't applied correctly or this is how it's suppose to be. I don't want to under vault it.... that shouldn't be a consideration at this price point. Due to the high temps this card screams often than not. This may not be a problem if you live in an igloo. I stay in San Diego so take that as you will. Awesome card, 4 star rating may change when it dies due to it wanting to start a fire in my case.

I purchased this RTX 3080ti less than 1 month ago and tested it on three different flight simulators' platforms for three weeks straight. I run the card at temperatures between 54 and 58 degrees Celsius and high FPS on all simulators. These RTX cards, particularly the ones from EVGA, are already overclocked at stock. I tried overclocking the GPU to 2,100Mhz with no great gain in FPS. The algorithms on those simulators don't seem to allow FPS to increase by more than a few even with high OC settings. The best use with the RTX cards is to work with as little voltage as possible, as the silicon allows (I only allow 840mV max to feed this GPU), and maintain a clock speed between 1,930Mhz and 1,960Mhz. I don't see more than 220 Watts during heavy loads, with an average of 200 Watts across all three platforms, as compared to the 320 watts at stock. This, while playing MSFS 2020 at Ultra settings, with the fans barely spinning and barely audible. The GPU came to me with a stock 84 degree Celsius and all fans spinning out control... In three weeks, I reduced the operating temps by about 30 degrees and quieted the fans to a minimum, all with gains in FPS and plenty of stability. The advantage with this card, at least for me, was the available 12 GBs of VRAMs in a powerful RTX GPU. Heat / voltage / FPS can be improved very easily with lots of testing and some crazy calculations that I developed when I learnt to 'quiet' my 2070 Super in 2020. I run this much cooler and at much lower frequencies than my 2070 Super and gained about 20 / 30 FPS on average. I am looking at doing the same to the RTX 3090 now, which I prefer only because of the extra 12 GB of VRAM. Starve them and keep them cold and they'll behave. No custom loop required!

It has Fantastic overclocking potential as long as you provide it with sufficient cooling, most likely have to water cool it to get the most out of it.. the stock air cooler is impressive enough wile utilizing a solid copper coated plate that contacts both the ram and processor. But despite the quality air cooler it inevitably runs hot due to the cards high power consumption. They can only go so far with a air cooler with a powerful card like this one. I managed to drop 7 degrees across the board by just replacing the thermal pasta and adding thermal pads to the back plate.. evga should of done that from the factory imo. It's fun to disassemble regardless so no big deal for me personally. If I keep this card long term I'll consider a custom water loop to let my entire system stretch it legs.. as for now everything runs like it's expected to run..
