Noisy oneArvosana 3/5
It’s obvious that cheapest card will be cut in everything
It has only 4 pipes in heatsink and on top of that the heatsink itself was cut in weight 1.4 times as I remember in comparison with its predecessor, 4080s that was with only 320watt tdp
Card blows hot (like REALLY hot, mate) air straight to the cpu. So if you like me, with old fashion big tower on cpu - try to think how to manage all that heat. Cause card always somewhere near to 70c on mid load, so as cpu. And easily gets to 80c when you try Hogwarts legacy with all that new frame generation stuff
So you can easily imagine how that tiny 1kilo heatsink really trying its best. But barely can handle that power on max speed of fans when you trying to play modern games as nvidia ment in their marketing videos
It is still a powerful card, it can handle everything but you should think twice before you buy it(if you can, of course)
