Power, Temperature and Noise

But real-world testing shows there isn't much in it between the RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 cards from a system point of view.

Though the heatsink solution is not as chunky as competitors that favour three-slot cooling, EVGA does well in keeping Ampere GA102 down to very reasonable levels.

And it's also pretty quiet. This harks to good engineering from EVGA's point of view. Going back to the logs shows the three fans spin at a maximum 1,730rpm after 10 minutes of gaming load.
