Efficient triple-fan cooler design with semi-passive cooling The features of the EVGA Geforce RTX 3080 FTW3 Gaming at a glance: With a GeForce RTX 3080, high frame rates and smooth gaming in 4K are possible. In addition, the graphics accelerators of the Ampere generation support PCIe Express 4.0. Compared to the RTX 2080 series, the computing speed of the rasterization optics and the ray tracing performance have been significantly increased. The gaming graphics card is suitable for demanding gamers who value high graphics quality. They are still custom, just not as exotic and beefed up as the FTW3 models.The EVGA Geforce RTX 3080 FTW3 Gaming is equipped with a powerful graphics processor and particularly fast GDDR6X graphics memory. There are three of those, and they have a more traditional, less exotic, design with reference clocks and then one with a higher boost clock. The one we are reviewing the “ULTRA GAMING” with model 3897 has a higher boost clock, but both have the same cooling design.įinally, there are XC models.
This one has a lower boost clock than the 3897 model. There is another one, one without the “Ultra” in the name, known as just the FTW3 GAMING with model 10G-P5-3895-KR.
This is the one we have for review today. This one has the model number 10G-P5-3897-KR. The FTW branded cards are what we are interested in today since the card we have is the FTW3 ULTRA GAMING version. All of those cards have higher than reference Boost clocks. There are two closed-loop AIO cards with water cooling built-in and two custom water cooling cards for your own custom loops. It is broken up into sections, including Watercooling, FTW, and XC brands.ĮVGA offers no less than four different water cooling options. If you go to their product page here you can see the entire list. EVGA has several models of GeForce RTX 3080 based video cards, from reference spec, with multiple designs and different boost clocks. The video card we are looking at today is a video card purchased online from EVGA. With the GeForce RTX 3080 you also get NVIDIA REFLEX support, GeForce Broadcast, and GeForce RTX IO, and of course Ray Tracing and DLSS. It has 10GB of GDDR6X memory at 19GHz on a 320-bit memory bus providing 760GB/s of memory bandwidth. It uses 2nd generation RT Cores and 3rd generation Tensor Cores. The GeForce RTX 3080 has 68 SMs, 8704 CUDA Cores, 68 RT Cores, 272 Tensor Cores, 96 ROPs, and 272 Texture Units. Yet, it has a performance that exceeds the performance of GeForce RTX 2080 Ti which retails for $1,199. The GeForce RTX 3080 Founders Edition has an MSRP of $699 replacing the GeForce RTX 2080 and GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. NVIDIA launched the GeForce RTX 3080 on September 16 th based on its new Ampere architecture on Samsung 8nm. Can you imagine spending all that money on a video card and then letting someone else use it first? We greatly appreciate that, and he even let us go nuts on the overclock, so we did with this beast. In fact, the video card we have in hand today was purchased by one of our very own readers who let us kindly borrow his video card to allow us to do this review today.Ī big thanks to northrop on our forums for allowing us to enjoy your video card first. These video cards have been scarce, to say the least, with availability issues not able to meet demand. We finally got our hands on a retail, custom, add-in-board partner-built video card based on NVIDIA’s new GeForce RTX 3080 GPU.
