What we like about EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti FTW3 Ultra Gaming

  • Top-tier performance for 4K gaming and heavy creative workloads like video editing and AI
  • Excellent cooling system featuring a massive heatsink and vapor chamber that keeps temperatures stable under load
  • Innovative anti-sag solutions included, such as the 'eLeash' and specialized retention brackets
  • High-quality build with a premium aesthetic, including a large ARGB diffuser and all-metal backplate
  • Includes triple BIOS options (OC, Performance, and Normal) for user customization
  • Quiet operation under standard gaming loads compared to other high-end models

What we don't like about EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti FTW3 Ultra Gaming

  • Extreme power consumption requiring at least a 1000W power supply and capable of high power spikes
  • Massive physical size (3.5 to 4 slots) that may not fit in many standard PC cases
  • High price-to-performance ratio, with many users noting the marginal gains over a standard 3090 or 3080 aren't worth the premium
  • Significant heat output that can noticeably increase the temperature of the room during extended use
  • Clumsy triple-headed 16-pin power adapter can be difficult to manage and hide for clean cable routing
  • Diminishing relevance for pure gaming following the launch of the 40-series cards

Verdict

The EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti FTW3 Ultra Gaming is an enthusiast-grade graphics card built on NVIDIA's Ampere architecture, featuring a massive 24GB of GDDR6X VRAM with a 1,008 GB/s bandwidth and 10,752 CUDA cores. This model is factory-overclocked to a boost clock of 1,920 MHz and utilizes the iCX3 cooling system with a triple-fan array and an expansive 3.5-slot heatsink for advanced thermal management. Its main pros include exceptional 4K and 8K gaming performance, a robust all-metal backplate, and extensive ARGB lighting, while notable cons include its extreme 450W+ power consumption requiring at least an 850W-1000W power supply, high heat output, and its massive physical footprint that may not fit in smaller PC cases.
