Very satisfied

I'm extremely satisfied with the product, it has exceeded my expectations. I'm still on a Sandy Bridge CPU (so yeah very old), using it for gaming at 1080p and it is quite an improvement from my GTX1060.
I have undervolted mine, it runs a the same speed and saw a reduction of about 10°C in temperature from before. At stock the temperature was around 70°C (depending on the game) highest I have seen is 73°, Undervolted runs at about 60-64°C at most. I do not find the fans to be very loud even at 75% which is the highest I have seen them go.
There is a tiny bit of coil whine (cannot hear it if I'm gaming with headphones), but almost non-existent undervolted.
Very satisfied with the product

I'm happy of this purchase specially when you can't find them anywhere for a good price. It should be a 400 cad graphic card but because of gpu shortage due to miners and pandemic the price went up to 539 cad which is reasonable compared to whats out there maybe double the price or more. Thanks to Eli for offering me one before it went all sold out and was hoping to get the 3060 ti version or 3070 but was too late that they we're all sold out before I got there.

great card for 1080p 100hz and 1440p 60hz

If paired up with a good CPU the performance is nearly stellar, but it's all dependent on the games you're running and what you're upgrading from to notice the difference. I had a 1660ti and while I do notice a difference with my ryzen 5 3600, part of me feels I should have been patient and waited for a 3060ti or a 3070. Don't expect to achieve a high framer rate on 1440p, I think in a few years this card will struggle to reach 1440p on 60fps depending on the games and what they're pushing, but its a good entry level GPU for 1440p gaming and you wont be disappointed I think if you're upgrading from a 10 series. Not worth upgrading if you have a 20 series, wait for the 40's, the hype around these cards will die as soon as another wave of cards come around.

Solid Gaming Performance

Was lucky enough to buy this GPU and it's honestly one of the best GPUs you can buy right now given the current market situation. It handles my 1080P gaming very well, though I've only tried playing SC2 and CS:GO. I don't have many AAA titles but I'm sure I can play all my games very well. Only question is, will it run CyberPunk 2077? Anyways the downside is that due to the dual fan design, it may get loud but so far, it's pretty silent.
Due to the limiter placed by NVIDIA, if you use the official drivers, you won't get more more than 25MH/s if you're mining. Using the beta 470.05 drivers, I get about 46MH/s with 65% power target, core clock -490, and memory +1110. If I'm watching YouTube or Twitch, then I get about 35MH/s. At the time of this review, I'm making about $4/day.
