For those looking for review of custom RTX 3080 cards, Videocardz has made an article with them. Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, EVGA, Zotac, Galax, etc: https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3080-custom-graphics-cards-review-roundup

Also, in case someone still had hopes of a comeback, SLI is officially dead:

NVIDIA SLI Support Transitioning to Native Game Integrations

With the emergence of low level graphics APIs such as DirectX 12 and Vulkan, game developers are able to implement SLI support natively within the game itself instead of relying upon a SLI driver profile. The expertise of the game developer within their own code allows them to achieve the best possible performance from multiple GPUs. As a result, NVIDIA will no longer be adding new SLI driver profiles on RTX 20 Series and earlier GPUs starting on January 1st, 2021. Instead, we will focus efforts on supporting developers to implement SLI natively inside the games. We believe this will provide the best performance for SLI users.

Existing SLI driver profiles will continue to be tested and maintained for SLI-ready RTX 20 Series and earlier GPUs.

For GeForce RTX 3090 and future SLI-capable GPUs, SLI will only be supported when implemented natively within the game.

Now my worry is if they'll be honesy and work with developers to implement multi-GPU support in their games... or work with devs to implement SLI in their games in a way that makes it impossible for AMD to make those games work in X-fire even if they tried.

Knowing Nvidia, my bet is the first option, but I doubt they'll bother much with it.
