In this review, we benchmark the GeForce RTX 3080 iGAME VULCAN from Colorful. perhaps this is the most beautiful 3080 out there (you'll get it once you see it). This is a very nice customized and faster-clocked product. All with reasonable acoustics, good temperatures and a bucketload of added features.

LCD screen is actually a turn off for me. What am I going to do with it? Gaming on main screen then stick my head under the table to look at a small LCD? A normal card without the added unnecessary cost of the LCD I think would be a far more appealing option to most. As if the 3080 needs a gimmick to sell

The only place where it makes sense to have a monitoring LCD screen is somewhere on the desk, or even better, attached to the keyboard.
A place which is always in front of you, and you can always take a quick peek at it to see if all's good with temps and stuff...
inside the case on the GPU ? Completely pointless.
I don't even see the insides of my PC while actually using it, even though I have a glass panel, as it points away from me.
This makes sense. But please, not MADCATZ... those things are fugly.
Instead, a nice discreet touch-screen that can be turned on/off with a push of a button not to bother you when paying attention to your game or work.

Well, now it's once again clear what JHH's "starting at" price quotes were all about. HH said $800-850...I'll guess $899, but we may have both underestimated. Seems to be about a ~$300 premium attached to the AIB cards, but the cheaper FE cards are almost non-existent and exclusively sold through Best Buy in the US, I think I read the other day (nVidia is apparently no longer selling them direct.) Yeah...the little LCD...so, uh, why is there no software to display these readings on the monitor--which I assume an RTX-3080 customer is going to be using here...? Or is the customer expected to simply use the attached LCD screen as his primary gaming...uh, monitor? Let's hope not, anyway...
I have to agree that this feature is preposterously non-useful...! I would never ask for such a feature and would never buy something like this. What's the point of the tiny flip-up LCD screen attached to a GPU that is safely out of sight inside a case of some kind? Also, I find that "ray-tracing" *cough* at 30-53 fps @ 2560x1440 to be a "tad" underwhelming in a product of this expense and pwr consumption--*cough*.... No wonder JHH has already published a warning about scanty availability for the rest of 2020!
A few days from now I hope AMD will be doing much better!

Just saw jay overclocking one of the icolurs, cooling is great, all spcaps design is less than impressive.
the range of these cards will scale from mediocre for the poor asic chips to 3dmark leaders for air cooled cards with the great asic chips.
