Size difference, OEM RTX 3080, retail 7900 XTX?
They say a picture says more than a thousand words.
It cools really well, but personally I think card sizes are getting out of control. That's a 4 slot card and it barely fit into my case. For case reference, that's a full size ATX motherboard and a Lian-Li Lancool II Mesh Performance case.
It's so heavy it needs a metal support bar...

Put the 3080 in my sons rig, so he's happy as he's jumping from a 1070 to a 3080. Worked like a charm on the MSI board, no issues.
For me, it's very nice to game at UW QHD 165 Hz with everything maxed out in Diablo 4 and sitting at around 42 C on air. And I am not done under-volting and tweaking the card. Even at over 500 Watts of power draw it manages to stay in the low 40's, which is pretty amazing considering that power draw.

It is amazing what a good air flow regime can do for achieving great thermals.
