$350-400 and I'd snag one to replace the 980Ti in my kids' computer.

16C/32T with what I will assume (for now) a nice bump in IPC and overall stellar performance, 170W TDP doesn't seem so extreme. The cooling solution, however...

Excellent review - thank you! Glad to see some of these 4.0 NVMe drives starting to drop in street price.

I rather enjoyed the Kelvin timeline movies, once I shut out all the agenda virtue signaling injected here and there.

I clearly remember the 290X becoming my most recommended GPU for its price range after ATI lowered the price and tweaked the driver to give it quite a boost in performance...and I've been an exclusive nVidia user since the TnT2 days. That 290X was quite the powerhouse of a GPU back then.

I've been using Arctic case fans exclusively for almost a decade. These just might end up in my case for my recent 5800X build, since I'm reusing my non-RGB F12 and F14 PWM fans.

I imagine that would be worth a pretty penny if kept in the sealed packaging in about 20 years or so. Pretty cool.

Awesome!

Here's my current usage. This is with 480p to 1080p streaming, depending on what we are watching. Plus a couple of game downloads. 8K is definitely something that is completely infeasible, unless I want to pay about 50% more per month for unlimited data...which isn't going to happen since...

I can't even fathom what 8K content would do to my ISP overage charges. Heck, I had to limit my streaming to 1080p on my 4K televisions just to keep from hitting the data cap.

Wow...this is looking like the best current option for 1080p or 1440p with high refresh. Going to feel like a true competitive market again once the Radeon 6000 series drops. Well, depending on their price points. Thanks for the amazing review!

I've been trying like crazy to find the ASUS TUF 3080 in stock and snag one, but I'm thinking this new information is going to make it even harder, now. I just hope ASUS doesn't cheap out and reduce the number of MLCC arrays going forward since they now have confirmation that their Ampere...

Yeah, it's time to hand down the 980Ti to the kids computer and get a 3080...if I can manage to actually place an order before they go OoS.

Here are the pricing details:

Maybe it'll do well enough to give us a proper GoT S8 remake.
