But for 4k/5k Gaming or VR, if you can't wait, get the extra flops of 3080 or 3080ti because they make all the difference.Sidenote: Yes, it is nuts to pay what I paid but it also means I can sell my 2070 Super on Ebay for a nice chunk of change because of the current market so you need to consider that. My advice is If you are a medium quality PCVR or Pancake UHD player stay with a 2070 Super and wait for the RTX 4k series possibly launching this summer. It cost me an arm and a leg but now I can get the best out of my screen and my VR games and for me that was worth it.The only downside is now my PC is basically a space heater because the new cooling system dumps heat out of my PC at such a high rate. Now, I can play games in VR on Ultra and let me tell you the difference is INSANE. So I purchased a Corsair RGB H100i ICUE AIO 240mm cooler to replace my 120mm and I reconfigured the airflow and added fans. CPU was hitting 100 C and Ambient Temps in the Chassis was cooking with the 3080 in it. I realized immediately the card ran wayyyy too hot for my current chassis configuration. I upgraded from a 650-watt Power supply to a Corsair 750 watt modular gold power supply.I popped in the card started gaming and it was stuttering immediately I began to panic, but I took a deep breath and checked temps. Fortunately, I researched requirements while I waited for this card to arrive, and I purchased a new power Supply in advance. Secondly, it draws 100 more watts than the 2070 Super. First of all, it runs hot as hell (I think especially this XC3 model). Then I got a Samsung 49-inch Super Ultrawide running 32:9 at 5120 x 1440 this past black Friday and it became clear The RTX 2070 Super just wasn't going to cut it anymore if I wanted full screen 32:9 gaming at those resolutions.Let me be clear upgrading to the RTX 30380 was a nightmare. Performance was smooth, but quality was just acceptable at medium in VR. I upgraded to faster Memory with 64GB capacity and had the Quest 2 do some of the legwork with the spacewarp feature in Virtual Desktop. Then I got a Quest 2 with Virtual Desktop and a dedicated wifii router. I was gaming on twin 34-inch Superwides at 21: x 1440. A year ago, I didn't get in the EVGA queue, because I was happy with my RTX 2070 Super (definitely regret that). So I just paid 1700 bucks for a Card with a 900 dollar MSRP to replace a Card that had a 600-dollar MSRP.
