Pros: I didn't see any reviews on these since they just came out in March 2023, so I decided I'd put on up. With the current trends in GPU pricing, I think this is probably a better card than the coming 4060 cards are going to be. This card has great thermals. The upgraded GDDR6X memory brings the performance pretty close to the base 3070 cards. I also wanted something with good power efficiency, and this is doing great with my 600w power supply. Using with an Asrock B650M mobo, and Ryzen 7600X, 32GB of DDR5 5200 memory, and a couple of Samsung 970 M.2 drives, and a 280mm AIO cooler. I paid ~$450 dollars for this card. As I said, with the current price point of GPUs, it's a pretty good card for the money.
Cons: I would have preferred to have gotten this class of card for $400 dollars, but I guess the era of getting 70 class cards for 499 dollars are long gone. And I don't see Nvidia or AMD doing anything to bring prices down ever again. Here's hoping that Intel can do something good with their coming GPUs in the future. Somebody needs to bring some competition at a lower price, or people are going to start getting priced out of the market.
Overall Review: I am pleased overall with this card. It's a bit over a 2 slot card, just barely over 2 slots. Card is cool and quiet. I would purchase again.
