So, out of the box the card performs well in games so far, placing it between 4080 and 4070ti performance. Drivers need a bit of work though, I noticed high idle power draw, this is a known issue persisting since day 1. I stream gameplay as well and the OBS stream is very blocky compared to the Nvidia cards , I hope they fix this with future driver updates, also while encoding it draws max power for some reason, the Nvidia cards don't do that. It runs pretty warm and I did not notice the fans stopping, due to the high idle load probably. Apart from that the size is very welcome for smaller builds, and the power draw is not massive as well, 300 watt for performance above a 3090 is not bad. I think it has potential and with the price drops and game bundle makes it a very good buy, plus there are aftermarket water blocks for it easily accessible which will improve on its performance further.
The card itself is great, silent, much colder than my 3080 xc3 ultra that I am upgrading from and fast, though it should be a bit cheaper for the performance it provides, it is a good upgrade over a 3080 and since I game at 4k I am happy about it
