ASUS ROG Strix LC NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Gaming Graphics Card (PCIe 4.0, 12GB GDDR6X, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a, Full-coverage cold plate, 240mm radiator, 600mm tubing, GPU Tweak II)

Bought this thing a few months back and unfortunately coming from Amazon EU to UK bumped the price up by about £200 but it had got to the point where I didn't care any more waiting so long to get my hands on one of these things. Pleasant surprise though was it arrived about a week earlier which was a bonus. Coming from a GTX 1080 Ti Oc it had pretty big shoes to fill and it delivered moving from a 3D Mark score of 9941 to 19611 on the graphics score alone. Asus is a brand I have come to stick with over the years never having any trouble with them with my rig consisting of an Asus motherboard, graphics card and monitor. A brand that I would so far recommend to anyone. Price wasn't ideal on this card but now that I finally have one I'm happy with what it delivers.

Expensive for what it is, but worth it considering the shortages.

A beast of the card, really glad with it.

easy installation

Very high Cw and used card.

I love this card, it is fantastic and performs as I expect. It does well at every game I give it no issues.However a downside is the loudness of the fans under load, roughly 65-70c and hot to touch. The coil whine is also a downside, it is loud under load and can be annoying.I have tried undervolting which makes no difference so I think it’s unlikely to go away with fixes but perhaps over time.If you plan on buying, have a decent headset or have the PC far away to not notice.

The card is massive, requires 3x8pin power inputs just like most 3080Tis out there and performs really well.However, while most high-end GPUs have varying degrees of coil whine, this is towards the terrible end of the spectrum. The fans are not quiet either while the card is under load and it also gets quite hot, at an average running temperature of 70C, in an open, well ventilated case.There are issues with the ARGB lightning as well as another customer described, whereby the card will simply just reset to rainbow static lighting instead of whatever profile is set in Armory Crate Aura-Sync. When that happens, the card is simply not recognized by Aura Sync as an Aura-capable device. All my other Aura devices are working absolutely fine, except the GPU basically.The card performs really well, with really good OC potential and it's on average 3-4% faster than a Gigabyte Aorus RTX 3080 Ti Waterforce Xtreme water-cooled GPU under same conditions.I'm not impressed with the Aorus either tbh as there are quality issues with that card as well, however, that is subject of another review, for the card itself.Another user suggested the MSI Suprim X RTX 3080Ti has a lot less coil whine and quieter fans so I might as well give it a go when I manage to find it on Amazon at a reasonable price.

it was a great card still is but not got that price you get yourself 4080 ti
