Not worth the same cost of a 5080 and you are then playing the lottery for a silly software upgrade if it has the ROPs.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great lower profile version of the 5070. Temps usually 65 under load. No coil whine in my unit. Fan is only noticable above ~70%.
Zotac offers a few extras over the other cards at the same entry price (assuming you can find it at MSRP) including a riser and LED lighting. Models like the Prime/Windforce/Venture do not.
Biggest complaint would be the Firestorm software & lightning. LEDs cannot be controlled by other software or OpenRGB. Firestorm options pale in comparison to Afterburner.
