I see the Palit Jetstream RTX 4080 is the cheapest 4080, and I'm wondering if anyone has experience of it? Have they cut corners to make it this cheap, and is it still a solid card? Thanks.

I had a Palit Jetsream 1060 3GB a number of years ago. No issues at all. Was it the fastest, probably not. Was it RGB, not that I remember. Did it ever break, nope. I’d happily get one again, but can’t comment on their latest batch of cards.

Thanks for the feedback. My thinking was if by going with Palit or Zotac I can get stretch my budget to include a 4080 (if going AM5) or 4090 if going (Z790 or B660 + 13600K) etc, then it would be worth it, providing these basic cards would prove reliable. I just don't know their reputation as I'm unfamiliar with the brands, since this will be my first gaming PC.
