It was either Steve first or Steve first. I chose to go with Steve.
I saw Steve but then clicked the other Steve.
I saw both steves, clicked on linus’ video first as it’s much shorter 😂

35 minute proper benchmark review
Da Benchmark King has to be FIRST!
Technical Steve@GamersNEXUS 2nd
Then "4K Gaming is DUMB" LTT last
Shout out to the 2060 getting 6 fps average in Wolfenstein at 4k.
@@trollgemomo3823 980ti has 6gb also, so...
@@trollgemomo3823 who knows...
Folding @ Home doesn’t use much memory, so the 2060 is pretty good for that, though not quite the best performance per watt. But if memory matters, ouch.
Could this be an error? This too strange to say the truth.
@@ZinhoMegaman possibly the new driver. 1440p also has the 2060 right at the bottom
Whos here after the drama
To how much degree does he need to talk about ray tracing? He has already tested games with and without it. What more does nGreedia want?
Me! Nvidia's hissy-fit has gained Steve another subscriber :) Nvidia's marketing BS has been called out for what it is by more reviewers than just Steve. He is also largely right - the majority of games still do not support RT, as much as Nvidia want them to, so why review them? - the only cards they can be compared to is Nvidia 2000 series cards & we already know the 3000 series cards are better, if a little inconsistent. They are the ones that want the technology to move forward, so until Nvidia get their wallet out & support more developers, in-game RT support is unlikely to change - it's getting there but very slowly. As for DLSS ... run a game @4K, switch DLSS on & drop the actual resolution to anywhere from 720p to 1440p? Then have the software think it knows what you should be seeing? Hmm, 2.0 may be better but it's still not there - needs more work, Nvidia. & before anyone comments I have never bought an AMD GPU. I am, however, considering one this time around & this sort of s*** from Nvidia is only helping that decision.
Oi
@@ianc4178 What does it matter what the real resolution is? If the game looks good and runs 50% better I don't care if the dlss renders the game at 360p
I'm trying to understand what is so no-no for nvidia about these reviews.. I'm not seeing it.
Finally done watching, that was a lot of work, thank you. I also noticed the spatulas in the back, it seems there's no RTX review/presentation without them :)
"So we have reviews from 30 different YouT-"
"GIVE ME HARDWARE UNBOXED'S!"
the true one!
Plz its harbor unboxed.
@@MohitKumar-jf8lz True. My sincere apologies.
@@MohitKumar-jf8lz you're both wrong its hammer on box
Basically lol
I sold my 1070ti a month ago for 250 and bought a 2080ti for 425 used that's a win for me 😁
that is excellent
$250 for the 1070ti??? *Shrugs* More power to you and the buyer!
Thank you hardware unboxed for including older cards! I have a 1070 and been really looking forward to this launch. Looks great!
So, have you been able to replace your 1070 ?
Great production value here... Just thought to chime in and appreciate your keen overview here Hardware Unboxed! Thanks.
I almost didn't notice the spatulas on the shelf. Nice!
Spatulas?
@@Geion yes, look at the left side on the shelf
Nice call to Jensen's kitchen 😁👌
Looks like they got them from spatula city.
probably he use it to spread thermal paste on cpu
Just want to say THANK YOU. A lot of people will take all those cards you have listed on the benchmarks for granted now that quality of hardware reviews on CZcams is so high, but I appreciate the effort that went into benching every one of those cards on the exact same bench.
Thanks :)
hydra Hail! 🤫
Best review I've seen, very detailed. Keep up the great work guy's!
I've seen several of the big channels, and I have to say, this is the best review vid. Kudos!
It’s official Microsoft flight simulator is the new crisis lmao
Nothing new there Flight Sims have always been that way.
bottlenecked by dx11
Quake 2 RTX is the new Crysis for some time.
FS 2020 was the only game that mattered to me. I even bought a new PSU to be ready for the Ampere cards. But seeing this, I think I'll wait for 3080 20GB version at least.
Crisis wasn't so badly optimized, it was just really heavy because of the great graphics.
The best benchmarking channel on the planet, imo. Nobody comes close for quality, and razor sharp focus on the topics, the commentary, and the GRAPHS! "In a nutshell"... lol, love your work!
Ditto.
And that Aussie accent just gives it extra spice!
Yep. The other 10 minute reviews are a struggle after watching this.
i'll have to say i agree with your comment, for the longest time hardware unboxed have released videos that are both very informative and very unbiased compared to a lot of channels
yes im commenting only for youtube algorithm to show me relevant video recommendations
Great in depth video as always. Thanks. Ps I'm loving the spatulas in the background. :) First time I noticed them.
This is easily the best review I have watched yet. Thank you!
most detailed review as usually..
still waiting for RDNA 2 peformance review..
Usual* and I think gamers nexus does an even more detailed one
@@lewis3774 I'd agree. The only thing I don't agree about with this review is the use of the Ryzen.
@Seno rac perhaps. Even on their own write up here www.techspot.com/review/2084-amd-or-intel-for-gaming-benchmarking/ below 4k on the titles being shown we didn't have improvement until we hit 4k. They might be future proofing as Intel appears to be stuck in a rut that's 14nm deep
It's also harder to look at their numbers and compare it to what others are getting, as they will be more than likely using the 10900k
@@lewis3774 Gamers nexus sometimes spam with unnecesarry detail. Hardware unboxed always hits the marks imo
@@DarkHerring69 GN caters to the specs and stats nerds xD (I know I am I dig it) but Hardware Unboxed reviews are always straight to the point.
Dont need to see other reviews after seeing this. Now i can sleep.
great detailed video as always! wattage usage, temps,1440p and 4k results and all the different games and cards tested could not have asked for a better 3080 review!!!
Watched from start to finish, & the first RTX 3080 video review I have seen. The right information given, & very easy to understand. Please keep this up. Cheers.

looks like im not going to work
@@tengkualiff Looks like I'm getting sacked from work 😅
Now I'm wondering if 3070 will actually be on par with 2080ti.
This is getting interesting.
Its going to be basically as fast, if not on launch then soon after. Unless they managed to somehow hard gimp the 3070 ( in which case it wont sell and AMD has a chance)
@@exol511 they also said 3080 is twice as fast as 2080 ( even though they clarified at Linus review they meant in quake 2 and minecraft) so I wouldn't believe those graphs anymore
Press x to doubt
I dont see why it wouldnt, its very possible...
@@TheGamingNorwegian because their claims for the 3080 were not accurate of the real world performance, they focused instead on 2 games and they didn't specify it in their graphs.
So I wouldn't be surprised if the same applies to the 3070 graphs. Find 1 or 2 games with favorable settings that achieves similar performance to 2080ti and show that.
Great review. Best of the best. Looking forward to follow-up coverage and other testing. Thank you Steve.
thanks for including pascal ! awesome review !
This shows again how powerful the 1080 ti is
How exactly?
They talk about itup to 90% difference.
Can you timestamp what you mean why 1080Ti is still considered powerful here?
(I have this card)
Assorted Uploaded yup, me too
@Assorted Uploaded struggling, my 1080ti ain't struggling at all at the res I play at 1440p, 4k would be a different story though.
@Assorted Uploaded user error then.
i play at 1440p/165hz and i have i7 6900K@4.4 + 1080ti @ 2100/6150mhz and all games what i have tried runs with acceptable frame rates.
@@SlayerSeraph It is up there at the top of every benchmark. If you don't care about rtx, like me, it's a phenomenal card.
I love how you have lots of spatulas in the background like in Jensen's kitchen xD
Do they come with every 3080 FE?
If only... 😏
good catch!
Spatula City!
none of them is green, does it answer your question?
He has those same spatulas in his Yacht kitchen
24:00 very important info
thank you
i waited for this, while many other youtubers simply blah blah blah
you were the only one or probably the first one to provide this data
which is very important
thank you for your excellent work
thumb's up
Watching the benchmarks here first before other channels, you guys rock, greetings from austria ;-)
Outstanding job on this review. I like how you cut through the hype and deliver fair and balanced practical information. Thank you.
Why do we keep letting Nvidia get away with such misleading marketing when we would blast AMD (and especially intel) for the exact same things?
Wait what ... I'm a Massive AMD fan and I rarely see any tech tuber blast AMD over anything let alone when they do worse things and many go out of their way to hate on Nvidia because its hip to hate Nvidia these days and generates good clicks. I personally think its funny drives my AMD stocks up when they do lol
because there is no competition in the high end sector. As sad as it is, but Nvidia is the only choice currently.
Because almost every company markets based on best case scenarios.
this was real honest review as always. Love to watch every video of you guys. Keep up!
I love that cost per frame chart that shows different resolutions. Thank you!
You guys are the best with these benchmarks. My head is spinning with information overload.
Feels like a good time to wait for AMD then see what happens with pricing. I think we all need to wait.
Unless you want a FE card, yes, wait, but frankly the resale on the FE cards in aus will be nuts, you could scalp them easily.
Right, Just having the large list of Graphics cards and their averages at 1440p (the true sweet spot of gaming imo and what I have) across multiple games is what I was looking for. 15:46
Agreed. That's what I'm doing and hoping on x-mas sales for whatever I decide on.
nahhhhhhhhhh team rtx
If you want to just game, definitely wait for AMD. If you need productivity, probably better grab a FE now.
We're gonna need a 4K gaming monitor roundup, stat!
Just upgrade your tv.
@@hetashar6509 tv is not a monitor
@@jonessii it totally is a monitor. im reading this on my 43 inch 4k sony tv. works great.
@@jonessii Some TVs are already for all intents and purposes monitors, especially the ones that have HDMI 2.1
@@MrRipple123 the monitor part is just a bonus. TVs are made for watching tv shows or watching movies for example. the biggest difference in TVs vs monitors are the sizes. a 4k tv starts at 43inches while a 4k monitor can start at around 28inches. also monitors have higher refresh rates than TVs so imo a 4k monitor makes sense to pair with the rtx 3080
I love that you include the Radeon VII and Vega 64, the latter being my current card. Its nice to see where they stack up in a majority Nvidia line up. Appreciate it!
Hey, Jensen! Pascal friend here with 1080Ti. Thanks for saving me $699, bro! Much appreciated! I think my 1080Ti and I are just fine for at least 2 more years, unless RX 6000 will be amazingly good in terms of value + performance gains over my 1080Ti in 1440p.
I play at 240hz but I'll lower settings for now. I'll get this in a year or two or get a 2080ti for super cheap when the 3070 drops a bit later.
Yeah 1080ti owners are the real winners. 2080 was really huge let down. That's why I say 2080ti was real 2080 card. It's like Nvidia slotted the stack forward to get more money out of 20 series
The 1080 ti will go down in history as the best gpu deal at the time!
Same here,still got a 1080Ti , i expected more, think i will keep my 1080 for a few more years
Why are you guys saying this?
I also own a 1080 Ti, but this shows 90 to 100% performance boost in 4K in many games. That's basically doubles the FPS. Isn't it worth it?
Still consider waiting for 3090 or waiting for 3080Ti but not sure if and when 3080Ti arrive...
Sweet now I have to wait for the real release date in 4 months when the scalping and price gouging is over
At least big navi will be out by then to compare too

Wow. Great video with lots of info. Love that he has a chart with multiple generations of graphics cards and tiers within rather than just showing competing cards. It made the stats more relevant to me because I could compare it to my own system.
@23:58 thanks for this info and for the extremely indepth review.
1.9x perf/w? -> close to 1x perf/w. 2x faster BVH/RT cores?... Nicely done Jensen, could have been so much better with TSMC 7N. Great review though Steve, quite thorough!
I watched AdoredTV yesterday and he ripped into this new design for the same reasons you are noting.
well Jensen is a great salesman if not anything else, and salesmen are always good with their words
nobody cares about BHVRT21848FS PERF WAT 1900. We just want 2x performance or riots.
Well, at least this means RDNA 2 can have a chance. If NV went TSMC 7N they would have no chance in hell to catch up!
I believe Samsung chips are better quality than TSMC
Thank you for this great Review Steve! what gets me is how inconsistent the results are, really.
thank you so much for testing all this for us and reviewing the new card!
Continually earning my subscription. Great work as always
I see you've accumulated the spatulas in recognition of this event!
Finally
I've been waiting for this
TYVM! Lots of great info, but the PCIE 3 vs 4 and 10900 vs 3950x discussion was very interesting to me and not something other reviews provided.
Yay! A massive benchmark on my birthday 😎
Thanks Steve for all the work you put into this!
You know who I am watching first :)
Gamers nexus lol
Same! Love Harbor Unboxed!
'Harbour unboxed...we have a boatload of stuff to go over" :_)
Hey thanks for all the hard work y'all! Reckon I'll be waiting to see Big Navi and/or a "3080 Refresh" type of card!
very well done review ! congratulations guys, excelent work !
Clicked on yours first out of all the reviews.
Running benchmarks doesn't take more talent than swapping parts. Interpreting the data on the other hand does and you did a great job at that. Well done with this review.
LOL! Love the vase of spatulas!! XD Nice little Easter egg. Great work as always Steve, very appreciative of the work you put into these videos. Cheers bro.
Bruh... You have a good eyes for noticing it. I totally missed it. You should go higher in the comment section and let others know about it. 😆
Amazing work and relevant analysis, thank you !
Tons of notifications, you guys were my first choice
This is the most comprehensive review of 3080. Nicely done!
Thanks for the video and benchmarks Steve!
I'd love to see some more details on the comparison between the Intel 10900K and the AMD 3950X system though - and some 1080p results (just for the sake of comparison).
Great review, Thanks Steve
1 like is all I can do for your hardwork
Great video , I don't see myself upgrading as my rtx 2080 still rocks as per my need,1440p/60
Impressed how well my 5700xt is doing ! Once again a great choice
Im actually glad i went with the rx 5700xt gaming x. A beast for 1080p gaming. Amazing value.
@@LaughterChief yeah I play at 1440p. I can't wait to see AMDs offerings
@@Dubnlove amds software is like wine it gets better with time.
@@LaughterChief Specially considering that the CPU will be bottlenecked with a 3080 at 1080p.
@@Mr.Plutonium with the current ones, yes. I mean if we're going for the the 5700xt then we would go for a similar range cpu like a 3700x or a 10600k. And amd is coming up with new cpus soon so that might work well with the rtx 3000.
Great review as expected. Thanks.
Other reviews have pointed out dislike for the new 12pin connector, more specifically the looks of it with the adaptor. I suspect that the best way could be a modification to the pcie slot design, moving the 12pin connector to the motherboard with the card slotting in and the motherboard providing the power via a dedicated socket for the lead from the PSU. With the Intel 12vo standard and the prospect of ddr5 on the horizon it is perhaps the best time for such things to be figured out. Connectors on the back of the motherboard could even work well especially for cable management and the size of motherboard cut outs on modern cases.
Best review of the 3080 i've seen. Thanks for all your hard work benching.
First channel to watch as always :)
Interesting to me is how the 1070 still manages to hold its own in pretty much all games at 1440p (certainly not 4k though) despite being just over 4 years old by now.
well, vega 56 is even faster than gtx 1070 while being cheaper at release
@@accelerator5524 True, but Vega also arrived 14 months later...
It only holds it's own if you're speaking 1440p/60hz. At high refresh rates, it doesn't hold it's own.
Well we havn't really seen that many demanding games be released these last couple of years.
Also 65% of steam users are still using 1080p, so there's little incentive to create really demanding games.
I still love my GTX 1070 too. I will change it in a year or two. I don't play that much intensive games on 1440p, mostly Rust, DayZ, GTA V and Deadmatter.
Quality content as always!
I needed an upgrade bad from my last system a year ago. Got the 5700 XT with an 9900k with plans of upgrading GPU when the price/performance got better. I can afford to wait and see what's best, but so far the 3080 is pretty compelling. Looking forward to your end of year GPU reviews guys!
I like how you and Steve both have a cheeky spatula collection while covering this card.
Scrolled through the comments section to see if anyone else noticed
30 series is a great release that suffers a bit from extreme hype from nvidia
It also suffers by sucking 100 watts more than the 20 series, and close to 200 watts more than the 10 series. Power should be going down, not up. Architecture is broken. Welcome to Fermi
Since when is that a new trend lol?
@@singular9 you probable are one of those Who waited for Vega

amazing work as usual Steve!
Great video, thanks for the content !
Loved it when Steve went after a 25 minutes talk, "RTX 3080 in a nutshell"
Best review hands down!
I hope you'll also be exploring scaling on a PCIe x8 link at some point.
I think usage of the secondary PCIe slot for NVMe storage will become more and more common:
- Once more high-performance PCIe 4 drives using new controllers enter the market, and software becomes capable of taking advantage of their speed (e.g. DirectStorage), people will want to add one to their system in addition to their old PCIe 3 drive.
- Some motherboards only have a single dedicated M.2 slot.
- On existing Intel platforms, the possible multiple M.2 slots often share bandwidth thru a single chipset connection equivalent to PCIe 3 x4 - not only with each other, but most other peripherals and SATA storage.
Very comprehensive, in-depth, almost ENLIGHTENING review Steve, thank you. Excellent. So then I started thinking of how this card looks inside a case, and how well does the included 12pin adaptor/connector fair in modern cases? It seems a bit bulky. Will there be future Hardware Unboxed videos on this subject of the RTX 3080? Thanks again!
I like the bouquet of spatulas on the shelf in the background. That was a nice touch.
While a great card, this review has me waiting to see what AMD can offer.

The most complete review i've ever seen. Great job! Should we expect a considerable improvement once the next drivers show up?
Thanks mate. No, there will be no improvement with the next drivers.
Consider me amazed that AMD really has a shot of being competitive with this gen.
I honestly was not very impressed with the 3080 compared to the 2080ti.
@@dg-cg5gi Same... 20-30% is nice, but not blowing the pants off of me. I think that's why they are going with the MSRP of $699 -- to make it more palatable to upgrade for all those with 1080ti. I am going to wait on what AMD presents next month then decide, personally.
@@pastfutureart The 10% perf/watt improvement is actually pathetic. That's Intel levels of improvement.
It’s probably because the 3080 passed the efficiency curve. I bet a 250watt 3080 isn’t much slower than a 320w 3080, but to make perform 30 percent faster than 2080ti they pushed the TDP
Thanks for including the 980ti in your tables. I think most people looking to upgrade will be upgrading from 900 and 1000 series cards.
I'm glad you put up the 980TI specs, I love how you mention people could be dissapointed with only a 30% boost over the 2080TI at a massive price reduction, while I'm upgrading from the 980TI and going to see a whopping 300% boost in some cases
holy shit, that was in depth! thanks man
Brilliant work as always Chaps!
Hardware unboxed is my first pick
The cooler actually are more impressive than the GPU itself, to think that it can make the 320w power hog cool and quiet, is mind boggling. And its beautiful~
because power consumption isn't necessarily power wasted into heat. GN actually found that Ampere is a bit more efficient than Turing so the higher power consumption is tempered a bit with more efficiency which means less power is transformed into heat.
nvidia just jacked up the power draw...nothing really impressive about that, except the cooler like you stated.
yeah, the "flow trough" airflow is what I always use on my PC builds, they run cooler than if they were outside the case.
@@HAHA.GoodMeme thats what u get with samsung 8nm!
@@Talishar All energy are dissipated as heat. 'Efficiency' means it has better performance per watt, doesn't mean the electrical energy it pulled magically disappears into higher dimension space. This is high school physics

Got one recently. No regrets.
we should wait 3080 ti version :)
I'll keep mine for another generation probably :)
Watching all the graphs seeing 1080Ti neck n neck with 2070 S and 5700XT, those 3 are on my watch list for sub $350. No rush here.
@Boris Erdogan still a good card .i have a 2080. Gonna keep it. CP 2077 has dlss 2.0 so it should run it nicely at 3440 x 1440.
You know what never disappoints? Hardware Unboxed
Man I swear, your reviews are the best!
Great video, Steve is the GOAT of benchmarking. I'll wait until we have comparisons to AIB cards, and probably Big Navi as well, since with my 5700 XT and the games I'm playing I"m not having issues. I'll probably upgrade sometime this year or next though.

@@ca9inec0mic58 for high refresh rate yes
I knew Steve would cover the increased price for the same position in the stack we used to get for $500.
This card will end up 3rd or 4th from the top in performance when all is said and done, that's without AMD in the mix fingers crossed.
I fully expect to see a Super and even Ti variants of this card. It's already been put out there that they're coming.
So because of charging higher prices on the 20 series the 30 series looks like a great deal.
Don't get me wrong the cards are truly powerful but instead of having a card at this level in the stack that we used to get for $500 we're now paying $700 plus.
NVidia Marketing is genius and pulled off a ramp up in price that will have everyone thinking it's an amazing deal but is it really?
I really, really hope AMD comes out swinging and competition drives these prices back down a bit and I'm not some rabid "Fan Boy".
I'll buy whatever gives me the best performance for my money NVidia or AMD it doesn't matter to me but a fight between these two behemoths is what we need...
Yeah, AMD just needs to innovate with its graphics cards though, in my mind Nvidia has been the innovator in recent years, and especially now with RTX. Until AMD can come up with something that can compete Nvidia will get away with driving up the prices
Couldn't have said it better myself even if I wanted to, good job mate
I would not expect a Super version of these cards - the 20xx Super cards were released because the 20xx series was performing abysmally in the market, and was an attempt at luring 10xx series Ti owners into going to the new generation. This is why they compared the 30xx series to the 10xx series so heavily in their presentations - because this was the sticking point. There's no need for a dumbass Super version of the 30xx series cards - they actually deliver a meaningful upgrade for a great price, unlike the 20xx series.
Not saying it definitely will not happen, but I would be legitimately very surprised if we saw Super versions of these cards. We definitely will see Ti cards though.
Thanks for your hard work!
From all the videos I chose this one first. You guys are the best at testing. Its the reason why i bought a 5700xt for my 1440p build and now I dont regret it even more!
