All I looked at were thermals and noise since otherwise it's just another 3080. Good to see Noctua living up to their reputation.

Beautiful. I really hope they go full-on with the next gen and have more cards available at launch (or at least close to it) from 4070 to 4090 (or w/e they will be called), I would gladly pay the premium for this.

I love these cards. I wish they do them at the start of the 4xxx series. This is so close to that I will not buy it.

If I had a wish list I would want the BIOS to have a normal stock mode like it does today but then the switch sets an undervolted and underclocked mode to nail efficiency curves. This could be huge for the 4xxx generation.
