look what UPS man dropped off today   

Ditto! Score yours at Newegg on Friday @ 9 pm EST? :)

Nice I think that's what I'm getting next, how does it perform.  I see you have the support, does it sag  without it, how quiet is it.

400W bios?

Question for anyone with a 3080 Ultra: If you have M.2 drives, have you done some before & after comparisons with temperatures on the M.2s with the heat venting towards the M.2 drives?
I'm new to the M.2 scene & pretty concerned about that because I've been running Hybrid cards for over 2 years now, which means going to a 3080 FTW3 Ultra will be my first "air cooled card" in a long while, which will vent hot air on to the motherboard on one side, instead of out the back of the case.
I plan on doing some before/after checks myself whenever I finally get my own 3080 FTW3 :-D

2040Mhz to 2019Mhz clocks without touching anything i think it's quite it doesn't sag i had that for my last card figured I'd go ahead and use it

no not Newegg 

Your AIO is set up in a way the pump doesn't push water correctly. Here is Gamers Nexus explaining it in depth!

Is that Port Royal? Really disappointed with my card :( out of the box my average clock is 1940.

My FE seems more stable and is hitting higher boost clocks so I think the FTW is going back.

Thanks for the info & congrats on the cards guys, can't wait til mine comes in.
 

That does not mean it's bad. Some applications function entirely different than others. Same rule for cpu OC. You stress test a suite over days not just Prime95 for stability.

Also during the GN 3080 FE OC he drops some knowledge on just because you had a higher score, doesn't mean it's efficient too.

Just Tried the VF Curve Tuner, it passed with a + 113 Clock has anyone else Tried this yet? if so what did you get
