Further, it looks like the changes to the card are purely cosmetic. Sadly, while many of us would like to get our hands on one, there are some hurdles to getting the RTX 2080 Ti Cyberpunk 2077 Edition....

Nvidia Geforce Rtx 3090 Founders Edition Review To Tame A Beast

While we’ve already seen the gaming prowess of the RTX 3090 from the perspective of a 3rd party cooling solution, I am instead going to be taking a look at the Founders Edition (FE) of NVIDIA’s massive Ampere-powered graphics card, otherwise known by its other term of endearment, the BFGPU. Specification Design Because of the identical design between the RTX 3080 FE and RTX 3090 FE and the fact that I have already conducted a hands-on with the card, I’m not going to spend a lot of time talking about what went on in the minds of NVIDIA’s engineers when they decided to break from tradition....
