I had this card first and I really liked it actually. But it kept crashing to black screen + restart so I gave it back. Plus the temps on this thing were sky high
Seriously, who thought this rounded cooler shroud was a good idea?! The 30 series shroud was so much better. My 3080 is a Zotac and I like that cooler design so much, but the design of the 40 series would make me avoid upgrading to a Zotac 4090.

I hate these things lol. It’s even worse on the HD 7850 they did back in the day.
Nowadays? The dumpster fire cards from Palit
