What reviewers say

Reviewers agree it is barely faster than the RTX 4080 it replaced, and that its main improvement is a lower launch price. They praise its strong, efficient gaming performance and the Founders Edition's build quality; PC Gamer still found it expensive against AMD's similarly priced and similarly fast RX 7900 XTX, and Club386 noted its large size.
