Powerful Performance and Ampere Architecture
The EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 ULTRA GAMING (10G-P5-3897-KL) is powered by NVIDIA’s Ampere architecture, featuring 8,704 CUDA cores and a 1,800 MHz boost clock. With 10GB GDDR6X memory at 19 Gbps (912 GB/s bandwidth), it delivers exceptional 4K (~120–144 FPS in *Call of Duty: Warzone* Ultra) and 1440p (~180–190 FPS) gaming. It includes 2nd Gen Ray Tracing Cores, 3rd Gen Tensor Cores, DLSS, and NVENC for streaming and AI. LHR limits ETH hash rate to ~43 MH/s. Users praise 4K performance but note high cost vs. RTX 3070.
Advanced iCX3 Cooling and Robust Design
Featuring triple 2nd Gen HDB fans with asynchronous mode and nine iCX3 thermal sensors, the card maintains ~65–72°C under load with low noise (~30–35 dB) via 0dB mode below 55°C. The 2.75-slot design (300 x 136.8 mm) includes ARGB LED, a metal backplate, and a support bracket. Users commend cooling and quietness but report coil whine and high temps (~75°C) in poorly ventilated cases. Control via EVGA Precision X1.
Versatile Connectivity and Power Requirements
Supporting PCIe 4.0 x16, the card offers 1x HDMI 2.1 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a for 4K/120Hz or 8K/60Hz, supporting up to four monitors. With a 320W TDP (420W max power limit), it requires a 750W PSU (1000W recommended) and three 8-pin PCIe connectors. Users value connectivity but report driver issues (fixed via clean installs) and refurbished unit failures.
