Looks great! A worthy successor to my R7? Nvidia are tempting, but so much power and the R7 is already a beast!
Exactly what i thought, its got sapphire written all over it. However, if that was the case, could it hamper the sales of actual sapphire cards?
As much as I like the look of the 3080, the way that you'd need to plug the 12pin connection into middle of the card make cable management a pain.Looking good.
And no 12pin connector required I note
Looks way better than their previous efforts.
Dare I say a bit like the 2xxx series founder's edition, with an extra fan in the middle.
If it is designed by an AIB then would depend on the agreement. Are AMD manufacturing the coolers themselves and just bought the design? if the coolers are being made by the AIB and sold to AMD then that could help reduce cost of their on cooler design due to bulk production.
My brother had to do the same but was happy with it once it settled. He's at 1080p currently so no doubt he'd have the same issue if he went 1440p.
Yeah exactly, i swore i wouldnt touch another blower card, but reading peoples reviews and the fact it was £300 brand new i decided to take the jump and dont regret it at all.
If it can match the 3080 for £200 less, I'm sold
AMD don't 'do' budget anymore lad
You do realize amd is about to release their next gen cpus...right????Say that to their CPU lineup haha.
I can't see it being 600+ in all honesty, I think they'll come in around the 500 mark and be almost on par with the 3080.
