Can we all agree that the 2080 and 2080ti don't look as good as the cards before? I am just saying I personally don't like the look of them. I think they are to round. They kinda look like something from 2003.

Buy AIB instead of reference? Ever heard the phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"?

I personally like unrestricted nuclear warfare. Everyone should agree.

I much prefer engaging the Chinese and Russian governments in chemical warfare. I loved the taste of Sarin in the morning.

I would agree that the FE cards don't look quite as good as the past couple generations, but they still look good. They definitely look miles better than anything from 2003; I mean in 2003 we still had exposed PCBs and random pictures of games on the coolers lol

They look better than the wannabe batmobile designs of the 10-series FE cards. But I will always buy AIB.
