EVGA RTX 2080 Super XC Hybrid Review: Cool Running, but Worth It?

Over the past few months, we’ve looked at several Turing based Nvidia cards, which are some of the best graphics cards available and often rate near the top of our GPU hierarchy. None of them have been quite like the EVGA RTX 2080 Super XC Hybrid, which consists of both an air cooler and an integrated liquid cooling solution to keep the GPU and memory frosty. In theory, that should keep temperatures down and allow boost clocks to run a bit higher than most air-cooled solutions while potentially cutting down on noise.

The EVGA RTX 2080 Super Hybrid XC we have for review comes with a small factory overclock (+15 MHz boost over reference speeds) on the core and the same 1,938 MHz (15.5 Gbps) clock speed on the RAM. We’ll see how this card and its hybrid cooling solution compares to the RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition (FE), Asus ROG Strix RTX 2080 Super OC, RTX 2080 Super FE, and an RTX 2070 Super FE from the Nvidia side.
