Ampere Architecture and Performance
The EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 12GB XC3 ULTRA HYDRO COPPER GAMING (12G-P5-4869-KL) leverages NVIDIA’s Ampere architecture, featuring 8960 CUDA cores and a 1800 MHz boost clock. Its 12GB GDDR6X memory at 19 Gbps (912 GB/s bandwidth) delivers exceptional 4K (~90–110 FPS in *Cyberpunk 2077* Ultra with DLSS) and solid 8K (~50–60 FPS) gaming. It includes 2nd Gen Ray Tracing Cores, 3rd Gen Tensor Cores, DLSS, LHR (~43 MH/s), and NVENC for streaming. Users praise its 4K performance and extra VRAM over the 10GB model but note high cost and power demands.
Hydro Copper Cooling and Premium Design
The Hydro Copper waterblock cooling system, designed for custom liquid cooling loops (pump, radiator, coolant, fans, tubing required), keeps temperatures at ~45–55°C under load with near-silent operation (~20–25 dB with pump). The 2-slot design (285.4 x 111.2 x 40 mm) includes ARGB LED and a metal backplate. Users commend its cooling efficiency and aesthetics but note the complexity of custom loop setup and maintenance. Use EVGA Precision X1 for ARGB and overclocking.
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 displays. It requires a 750W PSU with two 8-pin PCIe connectors (350W TDP). Users value its connectivity and NVENC for streaming but caution about PSU quality, custom loop setup, and case space. Supports up to 4 monitors. LHR limits mining performance (~43 MH/s).
