What reviewers say

Reviewers find strong 4K performance close to the RTX 3090, but high power use and a large premium over the RTX 3080. PC Gamer and TechRadar question the value, while PCWorld considers it worthwhile for high-end gaming. PCWorld also finds the two-slot Founders Edition cooler warmer and noisier than the RTX 3090's.
