Strengths:
Better and quiter cooling, less power consumption than the 3090 this card replaced. Comes with power cable dongle to improve cable management. ASUS always has excellent packaging and this product does not dissapoint. Nice suprize inside box...small screwdriver/kickstand.
Weaknesses:
Large size requires you give some thought to your case and PCI-e real estate. Also need to ensure your power supply has adequate cables as this high performance card requires reliable power.
Additional Comments:
ASUS quality, amazing frame rates, improved cooling. This next generation GPU delivers high frame rate performance allowing high quality settings in games. VR plus three monitors and this card never flinches. Improved cooling means this card works hard but remains cool. Ray Tacing capability will blow your mind and consistently achieve over 100 fps with Ultra settings in Assetto Corsa Competizione. The improvement over the 3090 is noticable. Any worries I had that the improvement from the 3090 was not worth it evaporated when I realized that the improved frame rates had helped smooth out VR performance to improve motion sickness. But, and it is a big but (pardon the pun), this new generation of card is considerably larger than the 30 series. My old case needed to be updated anyway so I moved up to a bigger ATX case. I already had a 1000 watt power supply so I was not concerned about the power requirement. I always buy slightly larger power supplies to give myself options when good updgrade deals come along. So in summary, as long as you have the room and the power supply this card is definitely an improvement, even over a 3090. Gaming, video rendering, CAD...whatever I throw at this card it easily takes on and impresses. Full disclosure, I am receiving a warranty extension from ASUS for my feedback.
