So after a year with a XFX 6900 XT I decided to part with it. While the card itself is a beast, it didn't perform as well with ray tracing as Nvidia, and the drivers were consistently buggy. Plus the fact that WHQL drivers are far and few in between, almost 3 months and still no WHQL drivers. So I put in for the Newegg shuffle today, and selected a EVGA 3080 12GB FTW3 Ultra, plus a EVGA PSU that came with it (I'll selling that on the forum with the 6900 XT). Would you believe I got a text and email saying I had won, i never have that kind of luck.So I'll have it Thursday, it'll be good to be back with Nvidia!!
 
COMBO PRICE:$1449.98

Add 11 to that. Depending on the state don't forget tax.

he got it before me....
 
I kind of wish that I stay team red, Stock Image looked better to me then Nvidia .
 
Looking really good!

Welcome back to the Empire.

I love eye candy in games, and my RTX 3080 provides it in droves. :D
 
Nice rig... needs some water though... ;)
Yeah people have said that, but with my ambient temps being 68F or cooler year round, the AMD Wraith does as good a job as the AIO's. So I never saw the need for the additional expense for little to no gain.

Uh no. While the wraith is not a bad cooler, it's not a 240 or 360 aio. It's the bare minimum on a 3900x/5900x.

That's not true, but I will concede that the Wraith Prism is an excellent cooler for most uses.
 
That's a sweet looking CPU fan. But it's horizontal? What's underneath that? Looks really short.
