That's true professionalism. When Asus does great you say great thing about their product and when they suck you say that too. I expect nothing less from you. Great review! I didn't expect somewhat "conventional " cooler to work out so well. Only concern I have is long term price after initial month coz I heard rumors that Nvidia is giving some extra money to partners for sells of first month. But that could be completely false. Hey if availability gets good and price stay 700 that is not bad buy actually. Although personally I'd still wait to see what AMD has to offer if I were to buy GPU this generation ( which I won't ).

How much power does ur card pull? Ive noticed on my 10gb 3080 TUF Gaming OC, the stock power limit at 100% will draw 340w under load, upon increasing this to 110%, the max wattage should be 370w, just like the FE when the FE is raised to 115% power limit. Although my 3080 tuf, when raised, caps at 350w, and GPU Z tells me there is a power limit, the power limit % maxes out at around 103% by GPU Z and it doesnt consume the full 370w like the FE does, even though they are both 2 8 pin cards. This is really annoying and I expected a AIB card to draw the same or more than the FE. This is stopping me from achieving 2000mhz stable under load, its usually low 1900s because of this. I am on the latest V5 bios.

the part that you may not be aware of with this card is that when you look at the backing plate view there is the 6 exposed gold chips sets exposed that control the power requirement. On the card are using all of the higher quality type. The foundation model only has 2 sets of high quality and 4 of the cheaper type sets. I say this due to just finished watching on another tech website on youtube that stated that some of the manufacturers are using all of the cheaper sets to control the power requirement of their cards which is apparently leading to issues while overclocking
@4450krank

not just overclocking, legit if the card boost clocks it crashes, and it will boost by it self if it has the power and low enough heat, so this and the FE are pretty much the only working cards atm.

The biggest give away that *this is actually just a commercial for an Asus product* .....not a single mention of minimum/maximum power consumption numbers, OR comparisons of power draw with FE(!). Also, about a month ago, Hardware Unboxed did a comparison between B550 motherboards, where the MSI boards were all noticeably ahead with better temperatures. Remember, we all don't get to see the actual results being gathered in real-time. Hardware Unboxed can literally change the numbers in the slides to whatever they like to necessitate making one brand look better than another ....viewers aren't going to know. We really are meant to trust them? Everyone is human! Surprise surprise, now we see MSI sponsoring videos here like this one. As Gamers Nexus said, this is how the industry works. But seriously.....look at this painfully obvious advertisement for Asus' card. This whole review had not a single negative thing to say about this Asus card, showing it in nothing but positive light. This is how commercials work. Positives positives positives, only talk about the positives! geezus. ...didn't even talk about min/max power consumption! xD Hardware Unboxed ...keep this up, soon you will become unbox therapy ..... (who is biggest $hill of them all)!

I bought a tuf x3 5700xt 4/5 months ago unaware of it's performance. I had gone through many difficulties replacing it with a 2070 super from the retailer. Even Asus has now improved tuf's later version but I do think the x3 5700 xt owners deserved at least an apology. That thing really hurt. How can such a big brand do these things. Never buying any Asus stuff again (ik they don't care) even tho it performs 2x better.
