3080 Suggestions?

Hey y’all,

I currently have an ongoing build that I just need the GPU to complete it. What is a good 3080 that would match the rest of the system and isn’t (relatively) too hard to find? I think an 850w psu is fine to support any 3080, but you never know, just fyi. I have a picture linked as well (apologies for the side panel) Thanks!

I spend.. a lot of time in the GPU market since last September. If you don't have a card yet and you've been trying for a year, the best piece of advice I can give you is drop any and all idea's of trying to get a specific card for aesthetic reasons. 

 

You buy the card you can get, every time, no hesitation.

I have a ROG Strix 3080 White OC in my white Corsair 5000D and it does look great. 

 

It is not in one of my gaming rigs since it does not outperform my budget 3080 ti that cost only $50 more.

Fully-modular, if that’s what you’re asking

Make and model, actually.
